Gunna brain dance with some hoors

[GoobyPls]

played this at release on ps4 like a peasant. it was the only game in my life I bought that was literally unplayable, a blurry slideshow. I felt robbed. got better after a patch and I finished it but was very disappointed with the game as a whole, not even the bugs. gonna feel like a cuck buying again for xbox, lol

[Coal Man]

Don't trust these reviews. Gonna wait to hear what miscers (besides R3L3NTL3SS) say.

Intredasting. What did GameSpot and IGN give the original Cyberpunk at launch?

I don't know about IGN

But I remember GameSpot giving it a 7/10 before launch which is reminiscent of their Starfield review lol since it also caused a lot of drama.


Speaking of drama

Luke Stephens, might be one of the most skeptical reviewers out there had this to say after playing update 2.0. and Phantom Liberty


Cliffs on drama:
-CDPR won't allow reviewers to use their own Phantom Liberty footages until 26th (screenshots allowed tho)
-Youtube reviewers are baffled by this because they say it's really good and they've only encountered a few bugs and very minimal performance issues, so they're not sure why CDPR would do this.
-Gameplay footages for update 2.0. are allowed though

If I had to guess:
1) They're actually worried about spoirlers
2) They want their own footages shown across the board which was taken with a super computer with path tracing and everything so the graphics look immaculate, and they don't want some peasant reviewer with a 2060 running on medium settings to ruin that
3) Even though reviewers are saying they've only encountered minimal bugs, CDPR might be worried that some people will clip those bugs and make tons of memes about it since Cyberpunk still has that looming reputation about bugs even though I can say right now that the bugs even before 2.0. are just the same amount I encounter in Witcher 3 and other games.

Might actually finally pick up a copy of 2077. Feel sorry for the cucks who bought it on release though

same

actually bought it on release, played it at midnight and refunded it in 2 hours lol

[M0nsterB0y]

Listened to the first half of Luke Stephens' livestream about update 2.0. and Phantom Liberty

Some takeaways:

-Among CDPR expansions he put Hearts of Stone > Phantom Liberty > Blood and Wine

-Asked if Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 + Phantom Liberty released this year, would it be Game of the Year? He said not sure at first but in the end he says Cyberpunk 2077 is like 9/10 now but Baldur's Gate is like 15/10. (I personally would say though, that CP77, even in its current state without update 2.0., with mods is 15/10)

-35:35 Asked if Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 + Phantom Liberty released this year, would it make Starfield look even worse? He says without a doubt, and proceeds on saying that if you play the new Cyberpunk 2077 now from the beginning and into the expansion and then to the ending (expansion adds new ending), you'll see what a true current-gen game is, and it makes it look like Starfield is held together by rubber bands.

-Says that Cyberpunk 2077 2.0. feels more like a sequel than a lot of sequels are and proceeds comparing it to AC Odyssey and Valhalla because the changes that Cyberpunk 2077 received from update 2.0. is more than the changes Valhalla received coming from Odyssey

Might actually finally pick up a copy of 2077. Feel sorry for the cucks who bought it on release though

^Which is why I quoted what OneLegSquats said because if you bought the game early, say half of 2021 which was the point when Cyberpunk 2077 started becoming more polished, at least on PC version, or even late 2022 after the anime, and you thoroughly enjoyed it, then you'll be getting update 2.0. tomorrow for free, and it's like another game, so it's kinda like you got two AAA games for $50

Game have always been very fun starting patch 1.3


So to basically get kind of a new game and it's for free is pretty nuts

[MikeLowrrrey]

Weren't a lot of people saying that they don't trust CDPR and how they're dead and how they'll never come back from that failure? I told those people they would be wrong in that CDPR would be given another change just like Ubisoft/Activision/EA

My posts I made years ago:

People trust EA, Activision, and Ubisoft after numerous **** ups.


I'm definitely willing to give CDPR another try.

Activision, EA, and Ubisoft have done way worse things time and time again, yet you and a majority of gamers still buy their games.

CDPR ain't going nowhere.

You don't think people are sticking around?

Activision, Ubisoft, and EA are all still very popular. EA goofed hardcore with Star Wars Battlefront 2, now they're in good qualms because of Battlefield 2049. It's very easy to appease gamers after a mistake. Apologize, then make a better game where the bar was set low.

You all hated Battlefield 5 but now raving about Battlefield 2049. Publishers have all sorts of flops, but people keep coming back.

Just like all the other publishers, you'll be back.

-Among CDPR expansions he put Hearts of Stone > Phantom Liberty > Blood and Wine

Calling Hearts of Stone better than Blood and Wine pretty much invalidates everything else he said.

I'm also one of those "cucks" that got the game at launch. But I played it on a real PC instead of a poverty box and besides some NPCs sitting in the air I never had any issues that I can remember.

Got whatever the most expensive version was on release, no ragert!

Cyberpunk 2077 released with only one version. That's one of the things that I like about CDPR. When they release a game, it's just the game, no deluxe or premium edition, etc

You can tell it's not a cheapo BS one, it's very solid.

If you're interested in another Phantom Liberty review from an unbiased channel, here's one:



5 months ago he made this video which is a very balanced critique of the base game, which I honestly feel leaned more towards negative and I disagree with a lot of his criticisms, but at least this channel and the one I posted above doesn't suck CDPR or any developer's toes.

HoS might've been 9/10 but B&W was absolute perfection

ayyyyyy dasitmane, I got it as well on release (for Xbox)

when I went to pick it up I was amazed at the size of the box lmfao (I was on foot)

it stayed shelved until the next gen update lol

shame there's no physical release accompanying PL, like with the Gwent cards for Witcher

[stayhomeneet]

Did they add any new interactions with D Y K E waifu Judy?

Is that Keanu Reeves wrestling a battlebot in a tuxedo?

Or is it a pedestrian getting ran over by a motorcyclist taking a selfie?

So this one?

"Or is it a pedestrian getting ran over by a motorcyclist taking a selfie?"

Doll looks cool anyway. The bike looks like the Akira cartoon.

Lol'd @ poverty statue.

Would have sold far more if it was just the couple from Edgerunners

oooooh .... I checked out my gog launcher just now and was wondering why I didn't get an update for it.



Also lold at cdpr not learning anything and still refusing to let streamer footage be shown.



I'll give this new update a shot and hopefully it might be the one to make me finish the game, but I doubt. I dig the game, but this game falls hard when it comes to the actual RPG element.
