They learned nothing
fpbp. Should've been humbled by the experience and moved forward best they could, instead they blame the fans
game was fricked, but yea I hate normies and their need for consensus. the thing is, theyre not that hard to please, CDPR's PR was horrible and they fumbled every step of the way and with interviews like this are still fumbling, see;
they acted like bastards and lost good will
they lied about it running on windows 7 I wasted hours on launch night with crashes and no answers except an article from before launch where they promised it was WIn7 compatible, they just lied about that though. Never really answered for it
how about I just refund the broken piece of shit and save my time and money?
Also get woke go broke I saw the timeline of SJW seething and infiltrating of CDPR followed by the fall of the company's standards for employment. It just keeps happening but it never stops being tragic. Ganker was hyped for this game for many years only for it to abandon classes and everything that made the game sound good.
So they're rewriting history now? Because I remember the broken piece of shit game it was just before launch with the leaks, at launch, and for weeks/months after. Even still it doesn't feel feature complete and probably won't start to until the NPC/police system update fix comes with the expansion.
The one thing it had going for it was the writing (except some railroading in the beginning) and being able to break the combat.
This.
This is why most professional studios don't conduct themselves like obnxious, sanctimonious a-holes and huff their own farts when one of their games sells well. CDPR bought into their own hype following TW3 and payed dearly for it.
>This is why most professional studios don't conduct themselves like obnxious, sanctimonious a-holes and huff their own farts when one of their games sells well.
Yeah, most of the do it regardless of sales.
>Get Woke Game Broke
Once something gets popular it gets swarmed by Redditards and troons with no talent that demand diversity inclusion and equity.
[Push off ledge]
nah transgender shit was always in setting from the very start of the pen and paper setting. It wasn't woke, its just being faithful. Hell even then the game didn't really feature the even more degenerate shit like the canon furries
>didn't really feature the even more degenerate shit like the canon furries
There are actually a few unique Animals gang members that have animalistic features. I'm pretty sure that there is one that has skin that looks reptilian. There just aren't any of the more furry like body modifications from 2020.
nah I'm talkin full furries: digitigrade, tails, snout; etc
The entire setting was envisioned as hilariously hypersexualized. Walking fetishes on the streets. CDPR cut a ton of the more extreme shit out so the game wouldn't be fricking beaned by half the planet.
The point was that CDPR was over run by woke morons after the success of Witcher 3 because that is all they do. Co-opt everything popular and ruin it like cultural locusts. Like a Reddit hug of death.

We'll see on their next game. I think you're just overestimating their wokeness due to the setting. They're still Polish afterall.
That was part of their PR overcorrection due to the stories of hellish crunch. Words are cheap, we'll see if woke actually infests the next game.
It’s over.
Polish animals are boot licking pale Black folk without principles or honor, and currently the boot they collectively lick is the one the US is filling with Black person troony cum in their milkitary bases.
Fricking hate this character, makes no sense in the setting.
>waaahhh he was the only man to ever love me!
Well that must be because you're an annoying beefy c**t, because everyone else is running around with electric whisks sticking out their eye sockets and still getting dates.
I ignored the instructions during the race and now get shouted at whenever I walk into Afterlife xuxuxuxu
game was shitty but he's right
normalgays dont even play videogames they just love or hate things based on general consesus
>he's wrong but he's right
>he’s back and he’s white
>game so broken on launch it was pulled off the playstation store
revisionism makes you look foolish if you forget to erase history to meet your narrative. there are thousands of videos of cars performing suplexes, cops spawning in broom closets, cars despawning when you stop observing them, npcs being cheap lifeless props, etc etc
it's not that it was ever 'cool' to dislike your game you fat homosexual narcissist - it was common understanding that you simply produced a bad product.
I feel like all those were pre patched pirated copies. I played with day 1 patch and honest to god experienced like no bugs at all
>I feel like all those were pre patched pirated copies
pirated copies... on the playstation store
your goyrevision doesn't work in 2020+3 homosexual
Literally nobody cares about snoys. They are not the intended market for these games.
Snoys were exactly the audience they wanted. That's exactly who they wanted and why they removed all the actual RPG elements and dumbed down the entire setup to revolve around breathtaking Keanu.
ps4 was removed solely because the performance was dogshit. PC version on proper hardware was kino from day 1 after the patch.
It was kino because the game was still good. But it was definitely full of bugs for months after release.
It's still a good game though, and, contrarians aside, you could see tons of people criticising shit that you just know would've been widely acclaimed had the launch not been such a mess.
What I'm not sure is whether the negative comments on what are good parts of the game came from people jumping on hate-trains or if it's pussy-ass b***hes who felt emboldened by the game's launch reputation and would've kept quiet about their dumb fricking opinions if the game had been wel received.
It was pulled out because people were refunding and sony doesnt like that
I too have a superpower of remembering things
Why were they refunding?
the game was too good
The meteoric rise and fall of smart ass anon
Not only that but they literally lied to the public about the game being playable for previous generation consoles.
They had a press briefing or meeting with media I think a week or so before release where they assured that the game was playable but then refused to give out review copies to reviewers for last gen consoles. The company knew it wasn't in a playable state and they lied about it to the public.
These homosexuals will do anything for your money. They will do anything to try to salvage the IP because that's the business model. Don't give a cent to these gays, ever. Have some fricking nuts for once and stop enabling the monster piloting the corpse of your favorite IPs.
It's not revisionism, the game was actually good the whole time. You are the deluded person acting like it was a disaster despite A) selling over 20 million copies as of 2022, and B) currently enjoying a mostly positive user rating on Steam and reamining among the most actively played games on Steam.
Even the hit to CDPR's stock fully recovered before the end of 2020 and surged to new heights.
You shazam gays have NOTHING. Literally nothing. Weep, wail, and gnash your teeth, b***h.
>It's all about sales
Lmao moronic number cultist Black person
I mentioned user reviews and active player counts too, all of which show objective success. What's your metric for the game being a failure? The amount of b***hing from moronic bandwagon homosexuals on Ganker?
>Objective
Yeesh, are you a zoomer too? Zoomers have this moronic habit of relying on objectivity when it comes to discussion.
lol what is this pathetic dodge? Not even going to address what I said are you b***h? I asked by what metric you consider this game a failure. Can you even come up with one, you sad little homosexual?
>objective success
Lmao, taking steam stats as a sign of "objective success". homie, 90% of steam users are unironic consoomers and apologists who never beat games and only play them for a couple hours, but if they had at least 5 minutes of dopamine during that time they will give it a "DIS GAME IS DE BEST DUDE!!!!" review then lay down their own lives to shield the game from any and all criticism
And second of all, what do we care about a game's sales and player numbers? That only matters to CD Projekt and their shareholders.
>the game was actually good the whole time
>proceed to post stuffs that only happened thanks to Edgerunners
This is what greeted me when I finished the Streetkid intro a couple days ago it was the exact same bug I screenshotted like a year ago so I didn't bother to take a new one kek
The game was only busted on last gen consoles and potato PCs.
If you had a reasonably good PC the performance was decent. There were some bugs of course but mostly just minor stuff like AI or physics being wacky. Once in a while you might fall through the terrain or something but not often enough to be a big deal.
Admittedly the customers on last gen consoles had a right to be upset. If the game was not playable on those machines it should never have been released. It wasn't even really an issue of bugs or poor optimization, the game was simply never going to run properly on hardware that weak.
Cyberpunk, more than anything else, is a living example of how marketing can save anything no matter how shit it is.
what's more is the humor in a completely unrelated anime series coming out of nowhere to boost their sales to infinity for all these smug metric-toting contrarians to hoist around
i can only imagine the abrupt disappointment of people who purchased it due to the show
and CDprojekt is still super based for feeding console dipshits the crow they deserve. Get a real machine.
they really gonna pretend we never see those yellow screen of apologies lmao
CP wasn't even that bad.
Would replay it over Skyrim for sure.
He's not right because I doubt he's saying people only like it now just because of the anime even though the game didn't change after Edgerunnes. They're sucking their own dicks after taking advantage of people being moronic and what Trigger gave them. That bald homosexual from CDPR that streams sometimes, whatever his name is, has been in damage control since day one spewing the most moronic shit with his annoying voice like "um you don't have cops in Eden Ring, you don't need cops"
I only have pure resentment for people that sniff their own farts like that, especially when it's unmerited.
This also basically confirms to me that the sequel will be the same as this shit. They gave up on trying for the complex RPG and will go the easy way making just a braindead shooter
Correct. Especially thanks to the Internet genuine discussion about games and movies is dead. People just repeat what othera say and follow what's popular and socially accepted
This.
It was a buggy, unoptimized and unfinished mess but people hated it for the wrong reasons, mainly because it made consolegays mad and subsequently news outlets hating on it.
I bet most of the people talking shit about it never even played it and never had the intention to do so, they were just happy to have a new gossip topic.
The butthurt over CDPRs false marketing as if they were the only ones who ever dared to do such a thing just confirms that they don't know shit about games. Todd has been telling sweet little lies for 30 years and is lying about Starfield RIGHT NOW yet everybody sucks his dick.
tl;dr I'm not saying CP2077 is good, I'm not saying it's okay to lie and release games in this state because everyone else does it, I'm just saying it was blown way out of proportion by people who don't know shit about the subject.
Hey moron try reading the thread before spewing your moronic bullshit:
>it's okay when No Man's Buy does it
>it's okay when Todd demonstrates Oblivion's advanced AI with scenarios that were actually scripted
I actually played the game all the way through and experienced all the endings including the secret one . I can with absolute confidence state that the story is quite good. The gameplay however is a mess. It's an undisciplined mess of ideas from Fallout 3 / New Vegas / 4, Borderlands, Deus Ex Human Revolution and GTA, ultimately failing to capture the feeling of any of them. They can fix all the bugs that hinder the story's presentation, but they will never fix the shitty loot grind mess of gameplay.
>I can with absolute confidence state that the story is quite good
lold
It's arguably like how RDR2's main hook, outside of the gameplay being GTA5 but slower, was the story. If the story falls flat for you then there's nothing left but to mock it or be unimpressed by it.
I think RDR2's story is mostly good but it's way too fricking long. Replaying the beginning is such a fricking chore
I think the bigger issue for me is how the story and the gameplay have next to nothing in common with each other
>YOURE TERMINAL VEE, ONLY A FEW WEEKS LEFT
>YEP NOT MUCH TIME LEFT VEE
>DEAD MAN WALKIN VEE
>hey bro wanna come have lunch with me and my familee :D:D
>whoah wacky goose chase time
>help me find my taxis vee
>youfa scuba vee? :D:D:D
so much of what the game offers directly contradicts the narrative framing so intensely that you either need to be moronic or actively ignore parts of the story in order for it to play nicely together
it would just be considered a worse version of EYE
All I have to do is to put quotes from game about fixing post-apocalyptic water purifier, and I will get a GOTY?
What?
>WE NEED TO STOP ENCLAVE FROM TAKING THE WATER PURIFIER
>Hey Wanderer, want to kill those ghouls for me?
>Can you fix our village since we can't wipe our ass?
>Ok, as a leader of Enclave, I should kill myself
Give me my GOTY award
Yeah I don't find F3's story particularly compelling either. Was this supposed to be an argument? Are you just talking to yourself?
Somewhat
I still can't figure out how a buggy mess of a convoluted story like Fallout 3 gets praise, but CP77 gets hate rape.
Must be the futa mods.
come to think of it, it kind of seems like V was going to go cyberpsycho at some point in development and things got re-written when based chungus keanu entered the scene
Yeah this is what killed it for me. I did enjoy the story* but parts of it were so detached and weird and the game was so incongruent with what was going on I couldn't really get invested. They wanted to capture the sandbox cyberpunk crowd and the story crowd and it backfired. Personally I'd prefer the world where they focused more on sandbox elements and didn't go with such a constaining story but either way would work, just not this awkawrd middle ground they landed on.
>story is quite good
>oh noooo time for your daily visual and auditory sickness to show that the character is dying
>ignore it for the 12th in a row time and keep doing side quests cause CDPR doesn't have the fricking BALLS to commit to a good story
>the story is good
Fully chromed V against whom bullets were bouncing like flys, gets shoot by a fat moron and beaten by his guard.
>forcing Keanu down your throat
>the story is quite good
I like Keanu but nobody needed that.
>The gameplay however is a mess.
What are you talking about? This is the best gameplay a first person RPG has ever had. Unless you'd argue that Fallout 4 has better gameplay and if you're arguing that then you're delusional.
>cyberpunk 2077 gameplay
OMG! I'm getting goose pimples!!
This does not look like console footage. Those are mouse and keyboard movements.
It's the most boring shit ever because it's Diet Borderlands with its perk systems, gear mechanics, and how the cyberware changed gameplay. The fact that there's gear score is a fricking sin in of itself, and it needed to patch in the ability to craft upgrades for lower gear score items just to make sure unique and legendary items scaled with the game, like with Yorinobu's gun and sword.
Seething troony. You can't do half the things you see in those videos in Borderlands. Who are you lying to?
>troony
>Playing borderlands
They play Cyberpunk.
You don't need to show me links to gameplay dumbass; I already said I played the game. Sure, the gunplay may be nice, but mechanically it's dogshit. The MMORPG gear scores, Borderlands-style unique magic weapon bullshit and elemental damage really take you out of the game. Quickhacking is also super unbalanced: Legendary Short Circuit at high Int can one shot almost all enemies in the game and can rip chunks out of the final boss even on the hardest difficulty. I had to stop using it because it was making the game too easy. The guards at the border crossing on normal difficulty were way harder than the final levels enemies on the hardest difficulty too.
>look at this
>look at Starfield gameplay
Will Todd kill himself once Starfield bombs?
you're asking if the man who released fallout4 has the capacity for introspection
FO4 was great though.
Not a single Bethesda game has bombed in the last two decades. It will sell gangbusters just like CP2077 and Ganker will seethe.
Isn't this game supposed to be a broken mess? It seems to be running perfectly here. Is Ganker lying to me when they say that Cyberpunk 2077 is bad?
it's quintessential eurojank. same with witcher. some good ideas. poor execution. i dont understand how they got so popular in the first place.
only watched first clip
enemy AI doesn't react to anything (and bugs out at 1:15), animations are awful, melee weightless/floaty, guns aren't satisfying, i hate floating popup numbers, disgusting post processing/particles effects, even with all the jumping around it looks slow
this is supposed to be impressive high skill gameplay for you cdp apologists?
>story is quite good
>did not collect the card collectibles and the tarrot sidequest
>immersion ruined because the MC cried like a b***h and not go full punk and face it all
your opinion is objectively shit
go away go suck some admin moderator onlyfans troony wiener for some upvotes you fricking shill
great game
He's absolutely right. You would think Cyberpunk 2077 would blue screen on launch every time with how people talked about it but it was nowhere near that buggy.
hes LITERALLY talking about shazamposting
you have to remember Ganker users are on twitter, reddit, yt too
They marketed a shitty FPS as an RPG
toilet cleaner astroturf
And that's why they lied and haven't implemented their promised features yet. It is because it became a cool thing to hate, not because of an insane failure of launch at consoles or absolutely atrocious mechanics at base PC. Are they hoping people will forget.

lol literally all the whining and shitposting is just salty consolegays, something I've noticed. Every single person bitterly exclaiming about how shit the game supposedly ran played it on some crappy homosexual console.
Game ran fine on PC at launch, better than any Bethesda game, and I don't see you pissing your baby pants over Oblivion or Skyrim being "unplayable", consolebab.
Console gamers are more real gamers than "PC" gamers.
>all the whining and shitposting is just salty consolegays

My computer is upstairs. I'm an attic ogre. Consider getting a PC in the future.
PC is for rimworld, dorf fort, factorio and other makework production simulators anon
there's a reason things like skyrim have been released 999 times with successful sales behind all of its iterations. even on console where there's nomodz, the ability to just turn your brain off and kill your sense of self while you lay on a couch and beat up monsters is a uniquely console-only experience unless you bend over backward to set up a giant desktop-to-livingroom HDMI railway in your house
i thought consolegays were dumb as rocks until i actually got a decent setup for it. i'll never play any form of immersive sim hunched over a desk ever again
>PC is for rimworld, dorf fort, factorio and other makework production simulators anon

The real trick is to have two PCs
Just use Steam Link
You are aware you can stream your PC to televisions, or even just get a fricking long HDMI cable and plug it in instead. If you are rich enough to get a 4090, you can surely afford a fricking cable.

I mean that's what happens when you overpromise and underdeliver. Being a whiny b***h about it at this point proves they really were zeroes to begin with though.
Have you seen the quest designers YouTube. Yeeeaa
If the game was surprise released by some no name studio even with all the bugs that were on launch, it would be considered a fantastic game.
>Release a shitty anime made by one of the most overrated animation studios from Japan
>Release some half baked patches
>"Redeemed! The game is good now!"
I wish that all normalgays get sodomized by elephants
anime was good tho, but i think that was mainly due to the studio not cdpr.
You are just another normalgay that got on hatetrain that was going for years before release, and got angry over other normalgays leaving you alone for pity bandwagon.
Projecting
The patches did not substantially alter the game at all. The biggest thing they did was reset the perks, which were one of the most stapled-on part of the game's mechanics and I doubt most players could even tell you which perks changed or how they changed, because of how boring they were. Just stuff like "-1% handgun recoil" and "+1% headshot critical damage".
Basically the game is the same now as it was at launch, just slightly less buggy on PC, and presumably a lot less buggy on consoles but nobody really cares about consoles. And yet, despite this, people now love it. Steam's user rating for it is mostly positive, and it was in Steam's top 20 most actively played games 2 years after release. Despite it being the same fricking game as it was at launch in terms of content and mechanics.
TL;DR it's just Ganker making a stink, game is objectively a massive success and its reputation was completely saved by the anime which made people realize how insane and unfair the hate was for it.
>realize how insane and unfair the hate was for it.
Yeah because guess what Ganker culture leaks to other social media websites and shazamposting became a movement just like /misc/ did with trump in 2016.
Funny in a way that shazamposters pretty much caused it to get blasted so hard.
It was dogshit on release. I played it myself my man, who are you trying to convince?
It was fine on release. I put 90 hours into it and had a blast. I played on PC, the intended platform. Consolegays need not reply.
I also played on PC and my experience was awful. Shit crashed every 30 minutes and it ran like ass it was unplayable.
Well, that's the whole point of shazamposting. Nobody actually hates a game, it's just funny to rally people behind a meme, which then becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
The absolute fact is that 90% of the b***hing was people playing on consoles. There is a reason PS4 and Xbone won't even be supported anymore.
The game wasn’t magically good on pc just because it ran. It’s a slightly better Ubisoft game with a semi decent story. There’s nothing special about it at all outside of the cool setting that didn’t even get used properly.
good morning cdpr interns
hope you can earn your sandwich today
Maybe they should consider finishing the game before they release it next time.
Ganker is going to be so fricking mad when the DLC is massively successful lol
They still refuse to accept the actual game is an amazing success. They live in a fantasy land where it's a major disaster.
DLC is literally content from cutting room floor, remember when they showcased ability to hack with monowire and climb walls with mantis blade? They added those back after removing it from the base game but charging you for $40 more for it this time
I don't care because I never saw any of that marketing garbage. I don't pay attention to video game marketing because I'm not a dumbass moron teenager who is somehow totally oblivious to the fact that marketing gays always lie about everything. Sorry you had your marketing lies cherry popped with Cyberpunk. Maybe don't be such a dumbass and grow some skepticism.
>Remembering things is marketing garbage
Revisionists go to hell and end up in a pot of boiling shit alongside Jesus you know
Believing shit shown in advertisements and promotional videos is marketing garbage, yes. And you're a gigantic gullible moron for believing any of it or even paying the slightest bit of attention to it. The fact you're so mad at an actually enjoyable game because you were lied to by marketing scumbags proves I'm right but you'll still sit there shitting your pants in fury because you can't admit you got hornswaggled by a bunch of douchebags with marketing degrees.
I'm not that Anon, but it's not like this stuff was shown as some sort of glossy CGI trailer or some bullshots. It was a huge section of walkt-through gameplay that was showing off game mechanics and features. You can say all you want that people are idiots for buying into it, but there's a marked difference between the way that sort of thing is presented.
It was shown in advance of the game's release. It was not touted as the release version of the game. It's marketing garbage. Again, if you had an IQ above room temperature you would not even be watching such videos in the first place. I sure as frick didn't. And look at the result: I enjoyed the game I got, you are still asshurt about it years later. Who won, really?
>sure they lied to you but you believed them so it's your fault
Massive brain take, thank you for sharing.
Literally yes you fricking moron. Marketing = lies. Always. Every time. This is literally how it works. You should have figured this out a long time ago.
Don't reply to me again
Eat shit you gullible tool. So tired of everybody having to watch out for special needs homosexuals like you because you literally believe every fricking thing you read on the internet.
What did I say to you? I didn't say "reply to this post" I said "don't reply to me again" can't you read?
That poster is someone autistic and constantly assmad, the other simpler alternative is that it's a CDPR intern being whipped into being aggressive that it was all "marketing garbage"
THEY CREATED ENTIRE DEMOS OF ACTUAL GAMEPLAY OF A GAME THAT DIDN'T EXIST CONTAINING MECHANICS THAT WERE NEVER IN THE GAME.
This fricking moronation is too much sometimes. Are you normies so stupid? It was beyond hype marketing, it was fricking criminal.
This Anon is right. CDPR literally made a separate demo that was never meant to be the actual game and went even further forbidding content creators to share any "non-approved" footage on their channels. CDPR knew exactly what they were doing by trying to trick everyone.
This is literally on an entirely different level from Bethesda's Todd, who only lies and upsells his games instead of literally making separate builds just to demo to people.

Sorry, I do not properly engage with moronic zoomers who talk like Black folk and rely on the word "objectivity" as a crutch. You type like a serious homosexual and you should have a nice day.
You can't even name one metric for failure. You are by far the saddest piece of shit on this website. You have absolutely NOTHING to hold up your bogus opinions except contrarianism. You literally have nothing to live for.
>You can't even name one metric for failure.
I'll bite. The objective existence of this cope coming from the developer, and this thread discussing it.
What the hell is he talking about? CDPR fighting Sony to offer refunds that almost nobody took advantage of was play of the century. It showed that what trannies gatekeepers on social media were presenting a story of failure that didn't reflect reality. Imagine Druckman trying a strat like that. It would have been the end of Sony.
Is it the "tabletop game in video-game form" that they promised over and over now?
What I don't get is why CDPR acts like they didn't advertise a totally different game than what was released. Does no one remember that 45 minute deep dive with loads of gameplay they showed during development? The final release had nearly none of that stuff. I will never forgive them for that shit.
>What I don't get is why CDPR acts like they didn't advertise a totally different game than what was released.
It's not "totally" different, the game they advertised and the final product are the same with only some missing mechanics.
A released game being downgraded or less ambitious that it was at some point during the development is more the norm than the exeption.
this, and frankly its a mild case compared to something like Spore
It's only not totally different in the sense that the basic framework is the same, but there were a TON of broken promises that were never intended to make it into the final game anyways. There's a huge list somewhere out there, but just off the top of my head the promise about different life paths affecting the story was totally bullshit for one.
>AMAZING AI that directs enemies during combat/patrol but also citizens and npcs' daily life
>wanted system and corrupt police
>Immersive police involvment changing with the area where you commited the crime
>in general, way more interesting combat and hacking. Some examples are the ability to use your wire to hack people, hacking reveales information about the network, more interesting viruses to upload, more loot from hacked devices.
>more interesting gameplay, for example: trauma team that plays a key role, freequent flying avs, ads that target the player point to the merchant that sells that product, merch could be pre-viewed before purchase
> Strong RPG elements
>NPC unique daily routine and AI
>Meaningful day and night cycle (right now it's just cosmetic and doesn't impact the gameplay)
>Incredible character customization during creation / in-game
>Use of drones for more than just some missions in the game
>three different lifepaths and more that would actually have more impact than what we are getting now
>to add on the previous point, lifepaths leading to non-linear quest design
>Nanowire and gorilla arms have a lot of different uses that are still in the description of the item
>Runs very well on last gen consoles (source NOT needed)
>The game will launch when it's ready (source NOT needed)
>Challenging weather system that would pose a threat to your survival
>Properties purchase and customization options
>Transportation system (Promised but then removed
>Scaling walls
>Vehicle cusotmization
walls
I remember that one. I played the game after the next gen patch and I wonder how early in development they must have scratched that because the game is littered with invisible walls, instant death zones and witcher style "turn back only demons play here" warp zones.
this pic is funny because it tries to act like it ended up making something so revealing but it crosses out things like "rich" and "cool" so you know its just bullshit
I bet you like Call of Duty too, having such low standards
It was literally a scripted cgi sequence that plays very differently to the final product.

Completely assmad because you know that your habit of relying on "objectivity" is homosexual shit. Bring that elsewhere, like a debate club or debate tournament.
lol still whining over semantics and word choices cause you have NOTHING, you absolute fricking cretin, get off my board you sad sack of shit
OH NONONONO HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHH
Your assmad is showing. This isn't passion, it's self-evident assmad of the highest order because you are a zoomer and a Black person that throws around "objectivity" like a real midwit. I will not leave, I will eventually see you again in another thread, zoomie.
I said get off my board, no place for little wienersuckers like you. Go hit up one of the meetup boards and go suck a dick, little bandwagon gay.
They're absolutely right.
We all know it always happens with popular series but it's good that that behavior is officially acknowledged before it spreads too much outside of cesspits like here. Even modern gaming journalists are beginning to be guilty of it.
Contrarianism itself is about appearing 'cool' and having 'superior tastes' to fit it. You wouldn't be contrarian if you were alone and unable to tell to anyone that you are.
>bunch of garbage because a revisionist got exposed
You're definitely #1 in Hell's queue for rotting in a pot of boiling shit
20 million copies sold
mostly positive user rating on steam
sat in Steam's top 20 most actively played games for months more than 2 years after its original release
anime acclaimed and successful
stay mad
That has nothing to do with anything, why did you post that?
>the fact the game is successful and beloved has nothing to do with the fact it's a failure because I said so
lol
>successful and beloved
>overly harsh criticism
>release game completely different from the original teaser
>content cut even after the first real trailer that didn't already look like the original teaser
>government from its country literally gave them money to develop the game the best they could
>claimed the game would be an RPG
>removed the RPG from description afterwards for obvious reasons
>developed a large portion of the game around Keanu because "OMG WHOLESOME INTERNET MOMENT! SO BREATHTAKING!!!!!"
>game so buggy Sony had to pull it out of the store
>PC version was the only playable one and it was still a buggy mess
>for months before and after their PR department focused only on cosplayers for some fricked up reason
the whole thing was a gigantic catastrophe, and "overly harsh criticism" is honestly a much MUCH nicer outcome than what they actually deserved.
BUT THAT ASTROTURFED RESIDENT EVIL troony AND SOME E-prostituteS THEY SHOVED IN SAID IT WAS GREAT YOU FRICKING CHUD!!!!

Liars and revisionists are reserved for Hell you know. Again, pot of boiling shit right next to Jesus Christ.

Lmao loser
You literally haven't said a single thing in this whole thread that wasn't whining like a little homosexual baby.
Just here to say Cyberpunk was always good.
Indeed it was.
>I posted the epic grey man please agree with me
I didn't ask.
Sure you did
You are a Black person btw.
good, not great.
Forgot to mention that I'm a trans-man and those are my pictures btw, obviously not natty due to the test for HRT, I also lasered off the breast reduction scars for gender affirming surgery but no big deal
>Just here to say Cyberpunk was always good.
yep
You literally haven't said a single thing in this whole thread that wasn't whining like a little homosexual baby.
as someone who played on pc day 1 and had no real technical problems. this is bullshit.
The game literally has an option to have a nice day. It was the edgiest game ever made.
The Game Awards show snubbed game of the century for metacritic-approved weird crap nobody played. It went from hero to legend.
The Last of Us Part 2 did everything better than Cyberpunk.
Yet Druckman didn't have the balls to offer refunds during the controversy because he knows Sony would have died if he ever did that.
I dare Druckman and Sony to offer refunds for TLOU3. It would literally be the end of the PlayStation brand. Microsoft would stop trying to get CoD if Sony offered refunds for TLOU3. I fricken dare you.
Batshit insane take, and I've been shitting all over cyberpunk since release.
Cyberpunk was always bad
>"Then it became a cool thing to not like it."
>a cool thing
What a disingenuous thing to say. People hated CP2077 on launch because the game was an absolute mess that completely failed to deliver on the hypetrain that CDPR themselves encouraged. It had nothing to do with wanting to look cool by hating on the game.
>CP77 shills are being paid again
guess DLC is out or something
Kino moment
oof
Over promise, delay, under deliver classic developer strategy
the story was the central weakness of the game. the graphics and all that shit are just what people b***h about because most people don't spend a lot of time reading literary/gaming criticism and can't articulate it. but the problem was that the og trailer looked awesome and had a great dark scifi vibe, and what we got was mix of fortnight/urban/gtaV rip-off vibes.
you can tell something got seriously fricked up along the way and leadership changed. the place is called night city for fricks sake (in line with the original trailers feels) and yet most of the time it looks like miami and everyone is walking around in versacci shiny garbage.
sure anon, the most aggressive entity culling and spawning system ever seen is just due to people being unable to articulate themselves. people just had no idea why the entire world would functionally delete itself whenever you failed to observe it, this phenomenon had never been encountered until this particular game
cyberpunk contrarians and good faith arguments are two things you'll never see in the same room together, kek
people will forgive unreal amounts of jank if the story/characters/setting is/are engaging. nothing is engaging about 2077. bethesda games for example. there was no vibe to it really. it was just a city, and definately not a cyberpunk city.
>sci-fi
>great
>hmmmm what if we developed a fun rpg but the instead scrapped fricking everything, cut back on a ton of promises and turned into a fps with light rpg customization that only barely resembles the immersive sim we first set out to make
>OH NO TONS OF PEOPLE ARE DISAPPOINTED AND ANGRY AFTER WE DELAYED THE GAME LIKE 5 TIMES HOW COULD THIS BE HAPPENING AAAAAAIIIIIIEEEEEEEE
cool? truth is it was just more fun laughing at that dumpster fire of a game than playing it.
Structurally and in terms of game systems, there is no difference between Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077. Sure, the story is worse, but there is no lack of effort in Cyberpunk than there was in Witcher 3.
Fun Fact:
If Rockstar made a new game based on GTA2 it would be 2000% more Cyberpunk than Cyberpunk 2077.
>cyberpunk
>Actually not really cyberpunk more like a generic world
Even indies with zero budget have a more cyberpunk world
>generic cyberpunk
Clear bait, but just incase you're a zoomer its based off an 80s RPG. It seems generic because the setting is only a couple steps removed from the origin of the aesthetic.
Well, that and CDPR didn't go the full 9 yards on the nuttiness.
why do people not understand that just being "in the future" is not fricking cyberpunk? what about this image, which is what 99% of the game feel like is "cyberpunk" and not just "futuristic"?
>480x360
>youtube thumbnail filename
lol, lmao
and whats your point there, people still exist? They wear clothes? Sidewalks are sidewalks? Cyberpunk can't have daylight?
my point is that a cyberpunk city is not fricking los santos. they abandoned the vision from the original trailer and clearly went to rip off gtaV after seeing the insane money they were making. in ever respect NIGHT CITY, is really just LA. canonically, there was a big nucear war, wouldn't have been hard to make it closer to something like arkham knight where its actually on brand due to climate catastrophe or nuclear winter.
CDPR is really desperate to rewrite history on this game by pretending it wasn't a broken mess that was literally unplayable on older consoles and ran pretty badly on the newer ones even with the day 1 4gb patch. They did the same thing when edgerunners released, claiming people were finally realizing the game was always good.
Personally I think this is the wrong way to go about things. It's better to just focus on making your next DLC / game good then lash out at the fanbase saying they just "didn't get it".
>that was literally unplayable on older consoles
lol lmao
you should have seen the shilling on Ganker
I don't know why they even bothered releasing it on previous gen consoles. Just sheer greed and arrogance.
>CDPR is really desperate to rewrite history on this game
They WILL rewrite it, and all it took was a fricking anime to make people forget how bad it was on release and the unrealised promises they broke.
I also agree that Skyrim is as bad as CP77 and only saved by legions downloading porn mods
How many games have accepted the challenge of offering refunds up to 30 days after release and survived?
>None
That is the correct answer. How many can follow in CDPR's footsteps to accept a similar challenge?
>None. None now and until the Sun explodes.
Correct. This makes Cyberpunk 2077 a legend among legends.
>the game was so unplayable on launch they had to offer refunds
>this is a win in my eyes
Cyberpunk fans are delusional man what the frick
I had the game day 1. Had zero problems with it. The refund is always a good thing to have. Dilate gay. We love Cyberpunk 2077 and no amount of troony rage on Ganker can change that.
I envy your ability to live in your own reality.
There is only one reality mate. In this reality i played the game day 1 on my PC and had zero problems.
Teach me how to do that, I want to live in a world where you don't exist.
Not really. Facts"
>8 million preorders
>10,000 refunds
CDPR showed that the kvetching of all trannies on social media platforms where they are mods have no effect on sales of a masterpiece. Cope.
Is that 8 million number real? 8 million people are fricking brainless and are still preordering games is what you're telling me.
Yes. It also hit 20 million before Elden Ring and Hogwarts. Want me to Google more bad news for you?
I'm gonna be real with you amigo, I don't care about cyberpunk at all. In fact I bet I would enjoy playing through it now that it's been worked on for longer. I'm literally only here to rustle your and these other autismo's jimmies, save your efforts for someone who cares. I'm going to bed.
P.S. never preorder a videogame regardless of who's making it or what it promises to be
>marketing budget and commercial revenue
>directly equal to quality of a product
poopoo stinky argument boy, that's you
Internet contrarianism is a hell of a drug
>everyone decided to hate it to be contrarian
>then too many people hated it so everyone started to like it to be contrarian
It's like y'all are toddlers or something. Is everyone going to hate it again now to be contrarian again?
I never hated it.
Phantom Liberty not releasing on the previous gen consoles will really wake everyone up to the fact that it really was just the shit console players holding the game back.
Sounds like a CDPR frickup to me m8, they wanted to include the older console gen but couldn't accommodate for it
Cyberpunk should have never been released on older consoles to start with, the type of game it is would make it all be but impossible to run on them
>game is buggy, runs like dogshit and fails at being an RPG and an FPS
>make excuses for it
their next game better be good but if TW3 remaster is anything to go by it probably won't be
its not happening
theyre not capable of making anything anymore
The next game is a Witcher 1 remake “updated for modern audiences”. It will be as well received as the Netflix show and Blood Origin.
Go back to Redd*t Jeremy.
I'm guessing they will kill every bit of soul it had and turn it into a Witcher 3 clone.
Same thing is happening to XVI
You mean FFXV. Another game that was shat on release but actually broke franchise sales records and is now slowly being looked back upon fondly simply because the newest game sucks ass.
Shazamposters were right about everything
It's not like they did a magic numbers on us, they rightly pointed out all of the hmms and eechs
Don't release an aaa game for like 70€ in such a state, cybershit 2077 was one of the worst video game launches I saw in history. Doesn't matter if it now got mostly fixed, what is the point of releasing a game in such a state only to patch it like for a year to finally become good? They should have waited with the release for another year, then they could have avoided this shit show.
Motherfricker, you released a broken fricking product that was outright removed from PS store, and now are blaming trolls for your failure?
>t. enjoyed the game but understand it's shortcomings
Nice way of avoiding responsibility for providing your customers a subpar product, slick
Uh oh, stinky.
Imagine shitting your pants and trying to blame somebody else for it.
>it was you.
imagine having to link shitty youtube essays to push your arguments.
>couldn’t even be bothered to click the link
>expects me to care about your worthless opinion
Is it difficult to be this uninformed?
Alright Gankerners, what did we learn today? That Hiro should be hanged and fed to rabid dogs.
Or maybe it's because it didn't look anything like they had promised and continuously shat over all of the fans by making a broken, buggy, piece of shit game.
Phantom Liberty should be free considering all the bullshit surrounding this game.
>Leave the greed to others
Yeah sure.
Ready for V to take a backseat again to yet another yummy Hollywood actor?
>gaslighting and strawman shazamtrannies still seething at cp2077
KEK those troons will forever seethe at cyberpunk.
Remember when they mocked the user base for rightfully shitting on the fact the trailer made it seem like a slightly futuristic GTA game instead of the cool cyberpunk setting we all envisioned based off the first teaser?
It became cool to hate the game because they set high expectations and destroyed them with a garbage game full of bugs and a world nobody wanted
They didn’t even understand the genre. I’m glad they got their shit stomped in
>remember things that never happened
No, i don't. I am not a schizo.
>newbie wasn’t even on Ganker during cyberpunk hype cycle
>reddit spacing
Shazamtroons are Reddit?

Every time.
>election tourist thinks reddit spacing is a thing
I was curious too and the closest I found was this BS, in comparing with GTA
>"If you want to go out on a rampage and have no remorse, then you have got the option, and that’s fine with us," he said. "However, once you start to play the missions and see the amount of options you have, I think that will make players stop and think a little bit before doing something reckless."
In the original release the police were useless and the NPCs wouldn't do shit, and all the "choice" and RPG elements that would have set it apart were minimal.
He’s so close to a right answer here, but fumbles the ball yet again.
The game was a mess on launch, especially on last gen consoles. But there is an obvious truth that the internet loves a punching bag and so when something is bad, everyone lines up to take a shot against it. The criticism was deserved. The hate was a bit much.
>WAAAAAAAAH NO WE DIDN'T HAVE A SHITTY LAUNCH IT WAS A LIE YOU JUST MADE IT A COOL THING TO HATE ON IT
Jesus christ, how pathetic can these fricks be? Absolute zero self awareness, and I thought I had aspergers.
The worst thing is that historical revisionism may work because zoomers are getting told that Cyberspunk is "great" now and they will never experience Cyberpunk how it was when it launched.
It is working.
If you can stomach it, look at any Twitter thread on this topic, everyone's just talking about the bugs. No mention of the insane lies CDPR told and fooled everyone with.
People liked an anime so that means the game was redeemed. Normies are moronic sheep.
Reminder that the anime adaptation saved them
the game is still shit and they have no right to think their overhyped fps with cancelled content was going to be any good in the state it was released
Reminder that you're moronic. The game had sold over 20 million before the anime released. BEFORE! Now it is close to 30 mil.
>the seething troons are still mad because of a twitter joke
KEK i bought and i love Cyberpunk 2077. Does that make you mad troon abominations?
I'm trans btw but I'm not like the other trans I'm one of the good ones
So you're a troon. Good for you. I hope you have a nice day. Also why are you replying to my post as if it is your post? Dumb troon.
No one is talking about that. We're talking about the moron poles trying to pull historical revisionism and pretend that Cyberpunk didn't have a shitty launch. Are they going to attempt wiping the Yellow Box Of Apology from everyone's memory too?
>pretend that Cyberpunk didn't have a shitty launch.
Humans using real statistics like refund numbers have no choice but to accept that the game was massive success. Subhumans going by the amount of trannies crying on rednothing/twatter and the youtube clickbait following on troony mod coattails are irrelevant.
>it was cool not to like it
it wasn't disliked enough, they got away with their pile of lies
bros, after this game launched I was so fricking cool. people would look at me and go "that guy is pretty cool"
>overly harsh criticism
lmao, it was nothing like the trailers, so many features cut - buggy and unfinished
Look at the PS4 version on launch again and try to say that with a straight face - overly harsh criticism my ass
Maybe it's just a very shitty roleplaying game.
>overly harsh criticism
the game simply didn't function as intended, it was a buggy piece of shit, still is, but hey now they opted into larry fink's ESG so it's better right?
man they have fallen hard
>cyberpunk 2077 hate is deeply rooted in racism and misogyny and this is why it's a bad thing
"Overly" harsh? Wat. It released literally broken, I've never seen a big name game release this broken in my lifetime and I've been gaming since '94.
>overly harsh
LAFFING OUT LOUD 4realz
what a fricking asswipe. the game was so broken it even got removed from playstation store. suck a dick you polish bullshit artist. cybapungk was such a fricking scam. a literal fricking scam as in the game was NOTHING like what had been advertised and WAY BEHIND industry standards for openworld slop.
BIATCH!
