    In case you weren’t aware, there are three life paths to choose from at the beginning of Cyberpunk 2077. The three life paths are entirely different from each other with different starting sequences and different NPCs you interact with. While they might share quite a few missions, your experience will differ quite a bit, depending on which life path you want to start with. The three options offer different settings, character status and even unique dialogue branches as the game progresses.

    Choosing a particular life path will not only give your ‘V’ a different backstory, but it will also start your game in a different district. Your relationship with Jackie Welles will also be determined depending on the life path you choose. For example, if you choose the Corporate life path, Jackie will already be a trusted friend of yours whereas if you choose Street Kid, he may become an ally of yours after a botched deal. So without further ado, here are the three life paths in Cyberpunk 2077 and how different they will be from each other that will hopefully help you in choosing your preferred life path.

    Corporate  © CD Projekt Red
    If you choose to play the Corporate Life path, you will start off as an Arasaka agent with a body that has all the military-grade software. The game will start off in the Arasaka Tower and you will be able to check out the neo-militaristic megacorp right from the beginning. You will then meet Agent Jenkins and start your story in Night City. You will be able to investigate the internal affairs of the corporation and interact with the Mox gang at some point in the game. The Corporate life path will give incredible insight into Arasaka’s twisted corporate practices and twisted plans that will have a direct impact on Night City. 

    Nomad  © CD Projekt Red
    If you start off your game with the Nomad life path, your game will start in the Badlands, a wasteland full of buildings in poor condition. Here you will start out alone and eventually meet Jackie Welles. Your story will stretch from the desert straight to the heart of Night City. You will also meet a sheriff at some point in the game who protects a remote town from crime and corruption. 

    Street Kid  © CD Projekt Red
    If you want to start off right in the heart of Night City, then the Street Kid life path is perfect for your adventure. You will know the city like the back of your hand and will have deep connections with local gangs. You will have plenty of street cred and smarts. The game will begin in El Coyote Cojo, a bar in the Heywood district where you already have plenty of connections. In the bar, you will meet Kirk, an ally in Night City who is quite resourceful and will come handy throughout the game. You will be put right in between dangerous and violent gangs from the very beginning of your playthrough.  

    So these are the three life paths you can choose between when starting your first campaign of Cyberpunk 2077. The game is set to release on 10th December 2020 and we can't wait for the launch. Do let us know in the comments which life path you will be choosing and why.

    Republic TV Editor-In-Chief Arnab Goswami has been a hot topic of discussion since early morning and people, both haters and supporters want to know what feathers the guy has ruffled this time.
    While it’s clear that the Mumbai Police yet again paid a visit to Arnab and took him into custody in a 2018 case which has been reopened, this isn’t the first time the Prime Time journalist has locked horns with the police.
    Here’s a look at four recent instances when Arnab Goswami was found to be at loggerheads with the police.
    1. 2018 Abetment To Suicide Case © Twitter airnewsalerts
    Earlier today Arnab Goswami was arrested by the Raigad and Mumbai Police in relation to a 2018 Alibaug suicide case on abetment to suicide charges. The case deals with the death of a 53-year-old interior designer and his mother at their residence.

    Reportedly, the suicide note left behind by the deceased Anvay Naik claimed that Arnab and two others owed huge sums of money to his architecture firm. While Arnab’s ARG Outlier reportedly owed Rs 83 lakh for building the channel’s studio, along with IcastX/Skimedia and Smartworks, the three companies collectively owed them Rs 5.40 crore.
    In May earlier this year, Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh said that the case will be reopened by the CID following Naik’s daughter’s request. 
    2. TRP Fraud Case © Twitter sonunigamIND
    After two top Republic TV editors appeared before Mumbai Police's crime branch to give their statements in an alleged fake TRP scam in October, it was reported that Arnab was also called in for questioning by Mumbai Police because Republic TV was suspected to be involved in TRP manipulation. Allegedly, the TRP scam involved certain news channels manipulating BARC data to boost their ratings and channel TRPs. However, Arnab has not been established as an accused in the case yet.

    3. Provocative Communal Comments © Twitter htTweets
    Previously, in two separate incidents, Arnab had two FIRs registered against him on charges of instigating communal tension and spreading hatred between communities. In one incident, a man named Irfan Abubakar Shaikh accused Arnab of spreading hate against the Muslim community in connection with the migrant workers protest outside the Bandra station.

    In another FIR registered at Civil Lines police station, Bilaspur, Arnab was blamed for giving the Palghar mob-lynching debate a communal colouring. Finally, in October, the Mumbai Police served Arnab with a show-cause notice over the alleged provocative comments.
    4. Comments Against Sonia Gandhi © Twitter itspowermi
    In April earlier this year, Arnab was summoned by the Mumbai police in connection with an FIR filed against him for defaming Congress president Sonia Gandhi. The FIR which was filed by Maharashtra Energy Minister Nitin Raut, came after Arnab allegedly accused Sonia Gandhi of getting the Palghar victims killed and sending reports to Italy about how she pulled off doing away with Hindus in her governing states. Following the summons, the police held a 12-hour interrogation with Arnab.

    A number of Bollywood celebrities have actually opened up to the idea of carrying man purses, and we think that it is a major move towards gender-neutral fashion.
    It seems that Tusshar Kapoor is the latest to join the bandwagon. 
    Just recently, he was spotted at the Mumbai Airport, with a rather dope messenger bag. 
    © Viral Bhayani
    But first, let’s have brief look at his outfit. Tusshar is dressed in a very normcore manner for the most part. He has a lightly washed pair of jeans, a pair of black Chelsea boots, and a grey sweatshirt.

    What we really like about his outfit, is that firstly, he has accessorised, albeit rather conservatively. Secondly, we like the fact that he chose to go for a pair of unaltered, and a tattered pair of jeans. 
    That’s a dope style move if you ask us.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Now, let’s come to the piece de resistance of this ensemble, the man-purse or the messenger bag. 

    What we see here, is the Bengal GG Supreme messenger bag from Gucci, in beige, and boy, is it something special.
    © Viral Bhayani
    The bag, which is from Gucci’s 2017 Cruise collection, is made mostly using a specially made textile, the GG Supreme Canvas. 

    The motif that Alessandro Michele, the creative director at Gucci had gone for with the series was that of a forest. The scene depicts a streak of tigers, forestry. 
    © Gucci
    The motif works rather well visually when we see it juxtaposed with the beige coloured Gucci jacquard canvas. The bag also has a few leather accents which add to the premium appeal of the bag. 

    © Gucci
    Now, one would imagine that this being a bag from Gucci must be expensive. The fact that it is handcrafted in Italy, does add another premium dimension to it. 

    Well, the bag indeed is expensive, especially for someone who’s buying it in India.
    © Viral Bhayani
    The bag retails for $950, or just over Rs 70,000. When you add your regular custom duties, taxes, and other import charges, you’re looking at a price tag that’s almost twice the original bag. 

    If you were to import this in India, be prepared to shell out a minimum of Rs 1,50,000.
    © Viral Bhayani
    With that being said, we have to say that as far as fashion statements are concerned, that is one heck of a way to make one. Well done, Tusshar, well done indeed.

    Virat Kohli is the ultimate competitor. He lives and breathes cricket and takes it absolutely seriously… sometimes a bit too much. The Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper seems to get overwhelmed by the competition and forgets the very essence of the sport - the spirit of a sportsman.
    Here are five times Virat Kohli came under fire during IPL 2020:
    1. Sledging Suryakumar YadavSuryakumar Yadav be like- I don't give a **** to you Kohli bro#MIvsRCB pic.twitter.com/I067jJTLSI
    — Ronaldo Singh Bhati (@KisTianoRonaldo) October 28, 2020
    Suryakumar Yadav aka SKY has been playing in exceptional form during the on-going season of the Indian Premier League for top-seeded Mumbai Indians. In the 14 regular season matches played by his team, the 30-year-old has played some crucial innings and is amongst the top-three scorers of the team. He has also had a great year in the domestic season and was looking forward to finally playing for the team during the upcoming Australia tour but got snubbed.
    © Twitter - ESPNcricinfo
    The day after the Indian squads for Australia were announced, MI and RCB were in the middle of a nail-biting contest and Kohli made it blatantly obvious that he wasn’t going to let Yadav get the win over his side.

    So Kohli walked up to the batsman with the ball in his hand and a piercing stare into his eyes with the hopes of playing mind games but the whole escapade backfired as SKY almost single-handedly won MI the match.
    Nonetheless, Kohli got slammed for trying to intimidate the recently snubbed athlete online.
    2. Blasting Yuzvendra Chahal For Dropping Tough Catchpic.twitter.com/z4pmL0bM9p
    — Sandybatsman (@sandybatsman) November 2, 2020
    RCB’s final match of the regular season was against Delhi Capitals and it would not have mattered who’d win the match if the scores were close and that’s exactly what was happening when in the 19th over the match, Rishabh Pant knocked a four to win the match.
    However, a couple of deliveries before, Marcus Stoinis smashed a short ball towards the fences where a 5’6’’ tall Yuzvendra Chahal tried his best to jump as high as possible and take the catch but failed to do so. 
    Kohli could immediately be seen shouting at the top of his lungs as if Chahal had cost them the title. 
    3. Dropping KL Rahul’s Catch Twice © Twitter - IPL
    The man who is considered to be one of the top fielders in the Indian locker room, Virat Kohli somehow managed to drop two absolute dollies from KL Rahul in the match against Kings XI Punjab in two consecutive overs.

    This not only led to KXIP having a dominating 97-run victory over Bangalore but also allowed Rahul to make an unbeaten 132, making him the highest single-match scoring Indian in the history of the league.


    What an innings this by the @lionsdenkxip Skipper.

    Take a bow, @klrahul11 pic.twitter.com/eHDDlVzTaJ
    — IndianPremierLeague (@IPL) September 24, 2020
    Social media, especially the RCB fans, were livid and vent out their frustration online. The story however got out of hand when Kohli’s pregnant wife and actress Anushka Sharma’s name was unnecessarily involved and later Sunil Gavaskar’s polarising comments made it even worse.
    4. Playing Slow Innings On Numerous OccasionsSad to see how rcb is struggling, one moment virat kohli looks that he is invincible, other moment he is like a newbie who cant keep a strike rate of 100. Today’s match seems to be padikal controlled, moment he goes out game over for rcb; rcb has a pathetic habit of playing slow
    — deepak satpathy (@Deepak_Glen) October 28, 2020
    After starting the 2020 season with his worst IPL record ever, Kohli did manage to play a couple of high-scoring innings but failed to turn most of them into wins simply because the team totals weren’t big enough for the opposition to chase.
    Fans blamed Kohli for eating up too many deliveries and playing extremely slow. Some even mocked the skipper for using the IPL as net practice for the upcoming Test series against the Australians.
    Statistically, Kohli’s strike rate of 122.01 (in the 14 matches before the playoffs) is his lowest since the 2012 in which he played at a strike rate of 111.65.
    5. ‘Almost’ Applying Saliva On Ballpic.twitter.com/rm7d9shlCt
    — pant shirt fc (@pant_fc) October 5, 2020
    This one seems pretty much unintentional and more of an honest mistake for which a cricketer’s subconsciousness is to be blamed.
    Kohli was seen almost applying saliva on the ball during the match against Delhi Capitals on October 5 which is a pretty common thing to do for cricketers. It is done in order to rub off dirt and retain shine to the ball.
    However, this season was different and saliva on the ball was banned keeping the safety of the cricketers in mind under the stressful coronavirus pandemic.
    As soon as Kohli realised what he was doing, he quickly, rather comically moved his wet fingers away from the ball and let the umpires know what had happened. Nonetheless, cricket fans didn’t hold back when it came to showing their wrath.

    The worst thing to find out is that your partner cheated on you. Also, there is no easy way to tell your significant other that you know what they have been up to. But, recently this man pulled off the most dramatic reveal ever.

    A Bolivian man found out that his wife was cheating on him and he decided to bring a lawyer along with evidence to confront his wife in front of her family and friends. A video of the same has gone viral on the internet and has been doing the rounds since then.
    Check out the video-
    Groom: "My wife is pregnant and we're expecting a baby. But did you know she's 6 months pregnant, not 4? This is my lawyer, w/ proof that that baby isn't mine. Also, the guy she cheated with is here. She's been cheating for 3 years. This party is for THEM and not ME." via MARISOL pic.twitter.com/PcHHrzQdLL
    — SixBrownChicks (@SixBrownChicks) November 2, 2020
    The woman had said that she was four months pregnant but her husband found out that she was six months pregnant and revealed the same on the mic. He also expressed that he isn’t the father of the child. In the video, the wife can be seen trying to convince her husband to talk privately and the lawyer also handed over the pictures of ultrasonography as proof.
    Then the lawyer can be seen lifting his laptop and showing the woman the video of her with another man dressed in a towel. The woman is then seen shedding tears after getting busted.
    Not only this, but it was also revealed that she had been cheating on her husband for the past 3 years with his friend who was sitting right there.
    Here’s what people have to say on the internet about the incident-

    — Nay (@XcuseMyFro) November 2, 2020He held that man behind so he wouldn't leave and then walked away BUT Can we talk about the evidence?! Not even the paper but the vid! You can't even lie and say it's not you. Y'all are walking out TOGETHER!! pic.twitter.com/pGRrhD3i0m

    WhatsApp has released a bevy of features in the last few months and it looks like we're getting more. If the reports are something to go by, then it looks like WhatsApp will soon be releasing a new feature that'll allow its users to send messages that disappear after some time.
    This new feature is said to be in the works and it is expected to arrive in the next few days. It has been explained by WhatsApp in a new FAQ page on its website. "You can send messages that disappear on WhatsApp by enabling disappearing messages. Once enabled, new messages sent in the individual or group chat will disappear after seven days," the page says.
    © Reuters
    WhatsApp isn't the first chat app to enable disappearing messages. We already have a ton of apps that does it. Snapchat, for instance, is one of them. At times, this feature comes super handy, although we doubt if it'll be used by a lot of people often.

    It's also worth pointing out that we're not sure if we get to set the time for which the message will be visible or is it something that's fixed. That being said, WhatsApp did specify that a message will not disappear after a set period of time if it is forwarded to a chat with the disappearing message disabled.
    © Reuters
    Although the feature isn't available yet, WhatsApp has made it a point to explain how it works. To send a disappearing message, all you have to do is tap on the contact's name and select the disappearing message option. You'll then be able to toggle the option there.

    Dogs are the best and most of us can say that without a doubt. Recently, an owner of a one-year-old golden retriever was astonished when they found that their pet had walked over 100kms in fourteen days to return back home.

    The owner had put the dog at a friend’s house due to the renovation work that was going on at their home. This happened with the dog owners who reside in eastern China’s Qidong city and a dog named Ping An (Safe and Sound) was dropped safely at his temporary owner's house.

    However, after some days the family of the dog was grief-stricken and extremely heartbroken as Ping An had run away from their friend's house and had gone missing.

    But, Ping An’s owner had no clue that he had embarked on a solo trip back home to get back with his actual family. The adorable dog walked for 14 days to reach his home. When he reached the city, a group of people spotted him outside an office and took care of the wounded and malnourished dog.
    © Unsplash Golden
    To find out the owners of the dog, the group of people shared a picture of the dog on the Chinese messaging app called WeChat. The post got viral and Ping An’s owners were found within a day.

    They were soon reunited and owners came to pick up the dog from the company’s site. Also, now Ping An’s owners have decided to never send him away ever again.

    The dog is now regularly taken to the vet and is getting treated. Aren’t dogs the best?

    Time and again, Arnab Goswami has been in the news for the wrong reasons and his way of reporting has always been questioned. The Alibaug Police, on Wednesday morning, detained Republic Television editor Arnab from his Mumbai house in connection with the death of interior designer Anvay Naik and his mother Kumud Naik in 2018.
    #WATCH Republic TV Editor Arnab Goswami detained and taken in a police van by Mumbai Police, earlier today pic.twitter.com/ytYAnpauG0
    — ANI (@ANI) November 4, 2020
    What Happened In 2018?In May 2018, almost a year after Republic TV was launched, a 53-year-old interior designer, Anvay Naik, and his mother had died by suicide. Naik was the managing director of Concorde Designs Pvt. Ltd, a company that provided services to Republic TV. In his suicide note, Naik alleged he was being forced to take this step because he was not paid his due that was around Rs 5 crores.
    The case was shut down by Raigad Police last year. However, in May, Maharashtra home minister Anil Deshmukh re-opened the case on a complaint by Naik’s daughter, Adnya.
    Current ScenarioMaharashtra Government and Arnab Goswami are leaving no stone unturned to pin each other down and are at loggerheads. From the Palghar incident to the Sushant Singh Rajput death case, Arnab has been accused of using these cases for TRP. This has resulted in a massive divide in people's opinions too.

    There's only one person who can run naked on the beach and get away with it and that person is Milind Soman. 

    When that man pulls a stunt like this, he's applauded while literally, any other person would probably be arrested.
    And, what makes it even better is that he chose this bizarre and unique way to kick off his 55th birthday. 
    We all know that he's fitter at the age of 55 than most of us will be in our entire life and there's no harm is showing that off.
    © Instagram
    Sharing a picture of himself running naked on the beach, he wished himself a happy birthday. Well, that's one way to start off your birthday, a big contrast considering most of us probably start off with a wicked hangover.

    Happy birthday to me

    Samsung has probably created our phone of the year with the Galaxy S20 FE because it's everything you want from a capable smartphone. Good camera, great price, jam-packed with features and flagship-level components. It seems like someone at Samsung's office created the Galaxy S20 FE just to mess with the likes of OnePlus, Xiaomi and other budget flagship players. Having said that, Samsung is messing with these brands with one of the most amazing phones of the year that nobody expected. I won't lie, when I heard rumours about the Galaxy S20 FE, I did ignore it until I got to use it myself. After using it for a few weeks, I can firmly say this is one of the best smartphones launched in 2020. When you consider price to performance value, there's no other smartphone that does it as well as the Galaxy S20 FE. Even though Samsung did cut some corners to keep the price competitive, it doesn't change our opinion on the phone. Here's MensXP's review of the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE. 
    Design and Display  © MensXP/Akshay Bhalla
    If you want a lot of choices when it comes to your smartphone's colours, the S20 FE comes in six options to choose from. You can get the phone in Navy, Lavender, Mint, Red, White and Orange. We've been using the Mint colour variant which looks striking. The colour itself stands apart from everything else you've used this year and it's probably our favourite feature of the body. Being a cheaper offering, the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE uses a plastic body (polycarbonate) but has a matte finish at the back. There is a slight curve around its sides which makes the phone easy to hold in the palm of your hand and I prefer it over the Galaxy S20 ultra and other phones by Samsung this year. 
    © MensXP/Akshay Bhalla
    The S20 FE also has thicker bezels than its flagship counterparts, however it gives the same full-screen experience that you expect from Samsung phones. Even the punch-hole camera size is smaller than the regular S20 FE. In other design aspects, even though it is a more affordable version of the regular S20 smartphones, Samsung didn't cut corners with the S20 FE. The smartphone its IP68 rated which means it has phenomenal water resistance that you cannot find in other phones in the same price range. I'd expected Samsung to cut corners in this category, however this is not the case. 
    The fingerprint reader is embedded in the display, but it uses the older optical sensor rather than the newer ultrasonic sensor by Samsung. This results in more inaccurate fingerprint reads and the phone takes longer to unlock the smartphone. You may have to press down a bit more to get your fingerprint scanned by the sensor. 
    Let's talk about the display for a bit since Samsung is known for using the best screens for smartphones. The Galaxy S20 FE features a 120Hz OLED display with a resolution of 2400 x 1800 pixels. The 120Hz refresh rate works exactly as it does on its flagship phones where the phone will only push to higher frame rates if needed. Scrolling websites seems smoother, playing games that support 120FPS also feels better.

    Similarly, watching video content on the S20 FE is as good if not better than the regular S20 phones. Watching shows on Netflix and Amazon Prime reflected the colours with great accuracy and fidelity. Colours tend to pop instead of looking saturated or dull. The brightness level of the display is on point as it hit a peak brightness level of 650 nits for us. If you are avid video content consumer, you will not be disappointed with the S20 FE's display, however if you want the best, then we highly recommend the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra.
    Cameras The Galaxy S20 FE is probably the only phone in this price category that delivers versatility and quality in one package. The Galaxy S20 FE comes with a triple-camera setup at the back and a 32MP front-facing camera for selfies. At the back, you will find a 12MP Ultra-wide shooter with a 123-degree field of view. The main camera is also a 12MP sensor and the third sensor is an 8MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom and 30x Space Zoom.

    The camera app is also the same as the S20 Series which means it comes with unique features such as 'Single Take' where you can capture nine different types of videos and photos. Other modes such as night, food, panorama, live focus (video and still), slow-mo, super slow-mo and other features can also be used in the phone. 
    The camera is where the S20 FE has a massive advantage over its competitors such as OnePlus. The overall picture quality and colour accuracy look great where it's tuned just a tad bit. The phone can focus on subjects quite clearly and fast, enabling you to take crystal clear images in daylight. In low-light, you will notice some noise, however it is still better than the OnePlus 8 Pro and other phones of similar calibre. 
    The telephoto lens is also a dream to use where you can zoom into objects up to three times optically and 30x using the camera software. While the phone does a great job of zooming into objects, you will start to notice pixelation and noise when you go above 10x. In terms of video, you can capture 4K at 60 frames per second and the quality is at par with other Galaxy devices. It may not be the best phone for capturing videos as the iPhone still leads in this department, but for an Android user it doesn't get better than this. 

    Performance  The Galaxy S20 FE that sells in India is powered by the Exynos 990 chipset and is parked with 6GB of RAM. While there is some drama surrounding the chipset that is being used, in real-world usage, the S20 FE fairs quite well. Sure it doesn't beat the Snapdragon 865 powered devices in India. However, in our usage, the S20 FE was quite responsive where you could use over 10 apps at the same time and they would switch without any lag.

    In terms of Benchmark scores, the Galaxy S20 FE had a Geekbench 5 score of 897 (single-core) and 2677 (multi-core). It is lower than the S20 series and the Note 20 Ultra, however in our usage, we did not feel the phone was held back by the processor. Games ran well with little to no frame rate drops and we could play games like Genshin Impact with ease. Having said that, there were slight frame rate drops when we faced multiple enemies on the screen which is also the case for devices powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 865. 
    The Galaxy S20FE has a 4,500mAh battery that can be fast-charged using a power delivery PPE charger. Having said that, the phone only comes with a 15W charger even though it supports 25W fast-charging. If you require fast charging, we would recommend getting a 25W or above Power Delivery charger that supports PPE protocol as well. Alternatively, the S20 FE also supports wireless charging which was a huge surprise to use since this is Samsung's “affordable” version of the Galaxy S20. It puts a lot of smartphones in this price category on notice simply because we expect most phones to skip this feature except for the OnePlus 8 Pro and the Xiaomi Mi 10. 
    The Final Say  After having used the Galaxy S20 FE for a few weeks, we can confidently say it is one of our favourite phones that has launched this year. It's got a better camera than the competition and it has everything you need from a flagship smartphone. Sure, the polycarbonate body can be a bit disappointing for some people but the phone also offers a lot of features for Rs 44,999.
