Cyberpunk 2077 Grieving Thread

I see three options for this game
1. A solid rpg with old school Blizzard polish (optimistic)
2. An amazing rpg that barely works (New Vegas)
3. Daikatana 2

I'm fine with both 1 and 2.
Honestly I'd take fallout 4 at this point. I think the lack of tangible gameplay outside of closed doors either is really low confidence or really shit marketing. It honestly could be a mixture of both.


As long as it comes out component and "fun" ill be happy. I was never a fan of the Witcher most because of the story,location, and characters but I think i can get behind this a lot more.
 
If I hearing this right: The game is 100% finished and journalists have full release copies of the game. Yet they inexplicably delay it for the public for nearly half another year.
I don't know anything much about game development but what is wrong with sending patches like games of the past did if the reason is bugs? Do they also not have a dev menu to speed up on finding bugs?

And I don't really feel anything on the anime. Two years. Most stuff that are announced are usually a few months away from release. Why announce it so early? This will be forgotten until a trailer pops up in the future or is quietly released under the radar because the time of 2077 is gone.
 
edit: HDKirin did not mention that Akira Yamaoka worked on Snatcher so the guy has experience with Cyberpunk

He's done a lot more than Silent Hill with SDatcher ironically being his weakest.

More Shin Contra myself with Akira's music, but to be honest the guys a bit over rated and hasn't really done anything interesting beyond Shadows of the Damned since leaving Konami.

They are 100% at the phase where their just fixing bugs. Journos definitely got buggy versions. Also, QA testing sandbox games takes for forever and is incredibly difficult. It's why Fallout/GTA launch with so many bugs despite a shit ton of polish (assuming your game isn't made to be fixed by mods).

This phase is also used by devs to start working on extra content they can give/sell as DLC post launch.

I'm pretty sure its going to be "the Witcher 3 but with guns"

The only thing i did not like is the definition of Edgerunner, if you read the description on the website is just Shadowrunners with another name

Cyberpunk came out first by like, a year. So technically Shaddowrunners are just edgerunners with another name.

From what I understand the two games competed for a bit, Cyberpunk fell behind after a disastrous release with things like using barby dolls for the art and Shadowrun ended up overtaking the market.
 
Cyberpunk 2020 was very solid. They then tried to branch out to Cybergeneration, the millennial version of the edgerunners who were all nanite-enhanced and eco-conscious with a stronger anti-corp message, but it didn't do well. THEN they went to Cyberpunk 3, which used hilarious photos of action figures and random staffers for the art, which completely tanked.

Yeah, Cybergeneration was where I walked. Holy shit, the fucking fluff text for that made me just roll my eyes.

And now they're making Cyberpunk Red as part of the game's hype thing. Like the game it got delayed lol, but they sent out a "Jumpkit" with the basics you can find in the usual places. From what I've seen they gave it a real budget too.

I still play 2020 with my group from time to time. Its good stuff although some new people fail to understand that taking a sword to a gun fight isn't a great idea in a gutter trash campaign.
 
They are really pissing the shekels here

Huh, that's some solid talent. It might be good.
 
Because let's players, for whatever reason, being shoehorned into popular video games is the cool new thing right now. In Red Dead Redemption 2 if anyone recalls, Geoff and Jack from Achievement Hunter were the voices for the tellers at a post office and hotel in the Valentine town. I guess companies see these guys as great promotion if they put people who play their games in.
That's an interesting point. I know Jim Sterling and JonTron got some cameos.

As far as fads go, it's not the worst. It's a cameo that will either stand out like a sore thumb, or be tasteful enough that most people won't realize. It can be distracting, sure, but at least it's not badly made stealth or underwater levels.

Like you said, it's basically free promotion. I doubt these guys cost as much as having David Duchovny, Michael Biehn, or Robert Patrick did back in the day. Plus they have Keanu on board, compared to him Coxx probably did the role for bus fare and a happy meal. And as @SiccDicc said, it's going to be make the game age like fine wine when they're inevitably accused of sexual assault or go full Shia LaBeouf. Fuck, Coxx is already on thin ice after the "are traps gay" drama so I'm surprised they chose him.

Sign my online Petition to get DSP in Cyberpunk 2.

Angry Joe was in Witcher 3. He was one of the trolls up on the mountain near Kaer Morhen.
 
Skill-Up and that female ex-journalist who made a video about the review system recently put out videos of them explaining/answering questions what it was like playing the game for 4-5 hours. Give them a listen.

Overall, very polished and exciting for them.
Probably because he sucked their cocks.

What a terrible choice, though. Way more entertaining options out there.
According to the second video, Jesse Cox's appearance involve you driving him to a "dick modification" clinic because the surgeon screwed up the surgery and he's in constant pain. Imagine petitioning and sucking cock to get inserted into a game, and they put you in and make your avatar have dick problems.
 
I agree with Sargon's capo, it's downgrade after downgrade and they're wasting their time with that anime.

The guy you are talking about has a thread on here and he's overly cynical about everything. Not to mention insanely pretentious.

The idiot wouldn't even support Kingdom Come Deliverance when he talked about how gaming went to shit due to SJWs.
 
Guess their little Netflix special went well if they're doing an animoo. Its a bit weird that their tie in happens so long after release, maybe they plan on having some DLCs around that time and are hoping for a boost?
Or Studio Trigger was just backed up. They’re the studio most likely to take up western projects.
