I don’t claim to know much about this but I guess it pulled a No Man’s Sky and patched in everything that needed to be fixed or added. And it’s half off on steam right now so I’m considering pulling the trigger. Should I?

  • I don’t think its a No Man’s Sky situation. Cyberpunk 2077 suffered the most from high expectations and lies told while advertising the game. The game is decent, I personally enjoyed it a lot when I bought it for 20€ a year after release. But they did not go back and add things they promised but didn’t deliver on.

    • But they did not go back and add things they promised but didn’t deliver on.

      Not yet, anyway. There are a lot of improvements coming with the DLC, supposedly. The police overhaul on its own has the potential to add tons of replayability. Getting a wanted level & running from the cops was like 90% of my GTA IV time.

      • I am excited for the DLC and hope that it will be good. Its best to not buy promises tho. If the things CD Project Red promised are what is needed to make someone want to buy the game, they should wait until these things materialize.

      • Now that you mention it. There was a big refund happening on PlayStation 4, I think? Because the game was basically unplayable on console.

        I wonder how these things happen sometimes. Someone must have noticed, right? How did they even do any sort of testing on these versions?

        • I think they developed for PS5 / Xbox Series but promised backwards compatibility with PS4 / Xbox One.

          The backwards compatibility just didn’t work. The hardware couldn’t handle it as written and they scrambled to strip it down.
