Cyberpunk 2 is now in preproduction, CD Projekt says
-
And so the endless cycle of the borderline CD projekt games continues. Everything is hyped beyond realistic expectations a decade before launch, the masses whipped in anticipation. The game developers are kneecapped by suits making technical changes and demands they don't understand. The game is launched after sorely felt apologies for delays, as a messy distasteful buggy disaster. Then the devs get to finish the game during thn next five unars after sorely felt apologies for the buggy mess at launch. 5 more years later the game is hailed as a creative masterpiece, despite being held by bubblegum and paperclips under the hood and still being a subpar experience. Then CDPR announces a new game, and the cycle repeats.
We didn't learn anything from "Bethesda's magic". What a mismanaged company.
Endless cycle? Wasn't everything you described just cyberpunk? Did I miss something about their previous title releases?

Yes, you did. The last step of the cycle is that everyone forgets that this already happened before. The witcher, then the witcher 2, then witcher 3, then cyberpunk. Each was such a mess at launch that the press at the time thought the games would flop. Each time devs, not suits, pulled the games out of PR hell after the fact.
People forget that the console port of the first witcher game nearly bankrupted them.
Just look at this thread people are talking like cyberpunk was always a perfect masterpiece since launch and negative comments are being buried in down votes.

The difference between CDPR and Bethesda is CDPR games always end up being all time greats though. That's why I don't get influenced by the hype, and keep faith in them as developers, as well as their move to unreal engine

I hope that if this game is open world then the story at least matches it, unlike the first one.
There were just so many pointless distractions, and hardly any of them lead to anything interesting.

I also had it on launch day, on PC, and it worked great for me as well. If anything, performance got worse after they patched the game.

That's true, I think those who didn't follow the dev cycle and ate into the hype probably enjoyed the game a ton more than those of us who did and then got the absolute trash day one launch.
I don’t follow games before release so I wasn’t disappointed by missed promises and really enjoyed it.
The first that I heard of it was how buggy it was so I left it until people were saying the bugs were mostly fixed before getting it on sale.

Games are good, eventually, in spite of the mismanagement, not because of it. At one point they will run out of magic, just like Bethesda did. For said magic is just a ton of good writing and developers putting up with crunch.

Maybe about time for me so start the first.

You're gonna need a lot more than 2!

Looking forward to playing this in 10 years

It has a LOT of content cut from the board game, and the world is still incredibly shallow outside scripted gameplay
If you consider this anything more than a FPS game with cyberpunk aesthetics, I weep for your perception of quality
Fucking Ubislop Watch Dogs 2 had a more interactive world, for crying out loud

Way to show your opinion is less than worthless. If you're too stupid to admit CP2077 is an RPG: that's on you

From the same website:
Pondsmith revealed that he’s not as involved with the second game as he was with 2077, but said he’s keeping track of its progress. The game designer went on to claim that the sequel will feature Night City, as well as a second, unspecified location.
So it'll have a new city as well as Night City. Which is good - Night City has more stories to tell. All the TTRPGs were based in NC, as was Edgerunners. Leaving it behind completely would be wrong.
other location could be the moon, i think they intended for that to be DLC in 2077.

The Saints Row devs are cackling right now.
and the spider-man games.

Agree to disagree on that, I haven't played a Bethesda game I've considered "good" since Morrowind personally, and on the other hand Cyberpunk is top tier for me.

At least everyone knows not to trust this dev anymore and won’t buy the game until it’s actually finished
Sad this likely means the first one never gets finished

Yeah their greed is disgusting. I wander how many DLCs they'll make for this next one before it's finished

I started the first one last month and encountered 3 game-breaking-reload-required bugs within the first hour. It still isn’t fixed after all these years.
Edit: I don’t understand why I’m being downvoted for simply sharing my playthrough experience?

They still haven't totally fixed the first one.

i was a day 0 PC owner and it was 100% normal launch day fuckery.
Yeah, I had it on PC and while there were plenty of bugs, I still beat it before patch 1.06 or whatever came out. Still had quite a lot of fun!
Now, the console releases on the other hand... yikes man. Yikes...

:::Some people complain very loudly. It’s possible most of us actually had no problems & said nothing, leaving only the scorned to be heard.
So, believe it or not, what you said is why I was responding. To let you know “that performance issues are different for different people on different systems.” Seems like you forgot it yourself.
Have a nice day
