Cyberpunk 2077 Grieving Thread

I think what I find hilarious is how you morons are sucking off CDPR while screaming about how HG 'scammed' people.

Nigga plz. I won't defend NMS's atrocious launch, but the game is still a fuck of a lot less broken and fucked than Crash punk 2077.

thank you for yet again repeating the very word that makes you look like an illiterate zoomer

they keep releasing heckin' chungus free dlc updates, and they keep making more and more money from selling the base game as a result

didn't write "they sold DLC", you quoted him not saying that, and now you repeated him not saying that

So they weren't making money from the "drawn out DLC cycles", as he claimed?

The dumbass went to bat for Cyberpunk's original release, then shit himself over NMS making money because of "DLC". He does a fine job of being retarded without you running damage control.

that's what "making money from drawn out dlc cycles" meant here, the entire time, to which you and your fellow zoomies said 'dlc must be paid to be dlc, where stem paige'

I pretty much remember Night City in Cyberpunk 2020 being overall a terrible place and a whole bunch of it's population being freak of all sorts (hell some of the classes (I forgot if that's the proper tem since I have read books from it in years) you choose to play being freaks in one way or another)

Cyberpunk 2077 making the city like that has precedent in the franchise (since I didn't play the game (yet, waiting to see what it's like patched out and at a reasonable price) so if they ramped it to a ludicrous level I wouldn't know

Roles act as classes and the roles are your typical TRPG fair but flavored for cyberpunk. Solo is your warrior type, NetRunner is your mage type, Tech is your Alchemist, Lawman is your Paladin, Media and Rockerboy are essentially bards etc etc. Obviously i'm being very reductive but you get the point.

What you're thinking of is the various body mods you can get like the furry ones, the fantasy ones, borg ones, the bizarrely large number of mods dedicated to sex and sex changes, so on and so forth.

Oh yeah. The Night City we got is sterile as fuck compared to the Night City of the tabletop game. Not just the classes but insane shit like posergangs who are all look-alikes of some form. Imagine turning a corner and you see JFK and Bobby Kennedy beating the shit out of a guy while cursing him in hilariously bad Boston accents as Jacky Kennedy cheers them on. You could unironically have Kennedy on Bush gang warfare in CP2020 as a lore-friendly encounter.

Hell, an Anchorman-style rumble between competing news orgs isn't off the table, either.

I think a lot of the disagreements over the game's quality stem from the fact that people have had wildly disparate experiences with stability and bugs. Some have experienced softlocks and numerous crashes, while others like me have had a largely smooth experience even since day one. The only crash I can even remember was due to me being silly and not updating my drivers, and the only softlocks I have encountered is getting stuck on level geometry, which is more of a level design issue.

Of course, "works on my machine :^)" is not a proper answer to someone who has lost tens of hours of their life to a softlock or a save corruption. I'm sure my somewhat positive opinion of the game would be worse if I had a similar experience. I just wish that commentary on the game could focus more on its mechanical and artistic merits instead of the overblown hype cycle and botched launch drama surrounding it.

I think the goofy shit like posergangs and body sculpted furries would clash too much with the darker tone CDPR was trying to set, which relates to my main criticism of CP2077: The core gameplay is working against the plot and the setting.

Most obviously, a story about the protagonist having only a short time to live because their brain is being consumed by David Bowie Trent Reznor is wildly at odds with the conventional open world game format. It's difficult to be invested in V's plight when the game is encouraging me to fuck around as much as I want. In the same vein, Night City has no teeth, at least as far as V is concerned. V is an ARPG protagonist, and that effectively makes them god. Assuming the player is competent enough at stat building, (A low bar considering how simple the perk system is) then no enemy outside of the early game will ever pose a meaningful threat, regardless of the difficulty chosen. Resource scarcity is a foreign concept as you are always flush with ammo and cursing because you have to make a trip to pawn your dragon's horde of guns every ten minutes.

The environment and writing does a fantastic job of selling you on the bleakness and depravity of the city you're trapped in, but all of it is beneath you. You just see and hear about the desperate struggle for survival in Night City; you don't experience it.

I didn't have many bugs or performance problems. I just thought nothing about the game was particularly great and it felt like a Frankenstein monster made of a half-dozen different versions poorly stitched together.

No way fag, the bugs are a net positive, the game underneath being a by the numbers open world shooter and certain people having standards low enough to find that enjoyable is the disagreement.

No the words you fucking quoted and the words I said were "They made more money over the drawn-out cycle of DLC releases that gradually met some of their original promises than they did ripping people off in the first place".

If you have to keep adding or removing words from what I literally said to convince yourself you didn't fuck up maybe you're just a dumb faggot

You don't even know what you're angry about, do you.

I guess game updates are DLC now just by virtue of the fact that it's literally content that you download, even as classifications and terminology changes in practical usage over time.

This is some vehement disdain over such a negligible issue.
