Cyberpunk 2077

Do you guys think the game will eventually get there and become a hit like Grand Theft Auto V is? Like, even now, 7-8 years after the game was initially released, it's still popular and the game keeps getting big updates.

If you look at online games like Destiny, No Man's Sky, Fallout 76, etc., there have been a lot of games that were buggy and poorly received at launch but ended up becoming huge hits after a bunch of updates. With all the pre-release hype surrounding Cyberpunk, and people's love for CDPR, I don't doubt that in a few months, they'll fix the game to the point where people re-evaluate the game and fall in love with it.

Pretty sure its going down the path of no man's sky. Hated at first, slowly got a following after awhile.

The thing for me is that, whilst the bugs can be fixed soon, will they ever attempt to mix the other aspects of the game that are hugely disappointing? And if so, how long will that take? The pedestrian and driving AI just don't seem good enough at all. Is that a huge task (genuine question)?

guess the new patch also comes with a huge bug break, what fun.

They really need to sort out their QA. What's funny is, some people that have had a lot of luck and haven't encountered any problems are now having trouble playing the game

honestly, given recent reports coming out, this game shouldn't have come out for another year.

Definitely. But I guess the higher-ups were tired of delays and wanted a big cash influx. It's clear that the devs knew about the standard of the game and weren't as on board
 
Read new stuff from CBR on the game's buggy release:

A new report suggests that the infamously glitchy launch of Cyberpunk 2077 may have been the result of a Quality Assurance company lying to developer CD Projekt Red.


As noted by YouTuber Upper Echelon Games, who cites a 72-page document supplied by an industry insider, the developer used a third-party QA company, Quantic Labs, to pick up and report any bugs found in Cyberpunk 2077. While several accusations were made against Quantic Labs, the most notable specify that the team responsible for highlighting problems with the final version of the game mislead the developer. The report notes that the QA company overexaggerated the size of the team assigned to CDPR's latest role-playing game, with the actual group working on Cyberpunk 2077 being comprised of workers with less than six months of experience in the field. It's also alleged that Quantic Lab prioritized sending CDPR reports on minute and inconsequential bugs, rather than major glitches, in order to satisfy a daily quota.

I smell a scapegoat.

So, as we know we should be playing this game right now during lock down but it was delayed ... bummer.

There was a fantastic hype around this game and Keanu added his magic too. I was really amped for this game but the buzz seems to be dying down and actually got a few bad reviews from people that played a demo version.

Will you be getting it? Are you still excited for it?

I got the game when it was released and bugs killed it for me. They have patched it up well now but I'm yet to get into it.
 
With the combination of a take on realism, a take on predicting the future that just doesn't sound fun, and the fact that there's a bunch of stuff that made it bad on launch, I would rather support other game devs who don't give themself constraints they cannot handle, is more fictional and stylistic like Bomb Rush CyberFunk instead.
 
Still think I'm going to wait a few years to play this again. Modders and CDPR will have probably gotten this game to what it should be by then.
