I wonder how the story and quest pacing will feel to players like me who don't need to blitz through the whole thing in 4 days to hit a publishing deadline.

Looks like to pro move is to hold off on buying until a few post release patches come out. There’s never been a day one patch for a major release that’s fixed a game that was janky to be point of nearly broken at release

I mean who expects that to even be around in a year. Or lord no I’m not trusting stadia. I have a Fios 1gbs setup. Nice thing with GeForce is it’s $5 a month and I can still return the game if it’s piss within two hours. Will be hilarious to try and run it on my computer though. i3-5000k and a GeForce 1050 Ti (budget one). I mean I can’t imagine who much of a potato this will look like.

Not gonna lie, some of the complaints about an edgy atheistic and offensive clash of cultures or whatever sounds a lot like asking this Cyberpunk game has so much Cyperpunk in it. The complaints about the about the bugged characters/missions/even UI all sound bad though, like real bad. I was kind of worried they would try to make a GTA style game, like there’s reasons why Rockstar spends millions and has one of the biggest dev teams out there.

BlankSystemDaemon posted:Do any of the reviews mention whether reviewers got the day-one patch included in the copy they played? They supposedly have whatever the most recent digital build was at the time they got their review key. So more patched up than the physical copies floating around but possibly not as patched as whatever will be available on launch day.

This game, even with the Day 1 Patch, will have more bugs than Elex. The fact that it's in the 90 range at all means the reviewers are being too kind.

Qmass posted:because you cannot capture gameplay of the game without it looking really loving buggy and janked. CDPR themselves didn't release any unscripted gameplay before release... I think we know why now. CDPR's marketing game has been real slick for many years on this, but I guess not even they could salvage workable gameplay footage that isn't sourced from highly scripted mission sequences that have been hyperpolished to a sheen. I guess we'll see on launch day. I'm being cautiously pessimistic. ymgve posted:This game, even with the Day 1 Patch, will have more bugs than Elex. The fact that it's in the 90 range at all means the reviewers are being too kind. Like in many cases when games release in a buggy state, it's possible that the reviewers aren't scoring the actual state of the game, but rather the promise of it - the potential game it could be in their heads.

Anno posted:This is actually one of the few reviews that I might pay some attention to. That’s not a result I’d expect from Rob just going by that snippet. Supposedly many of these technical issues I encountered on PC—I cannot speak to console performance—will be solved with a "day one" patch, but the build I played was in a shocking state, and when you consider that the developer admitted back in January of 2020 that they would need to start extending workers' hours, the ubiquity of bugs and glitches testify to Cyberpunk 2077's troubled and ongoing development. After five years in development, almost a decade since the project was announced, and multiple delays (including a last minute retreat from its original fall release date), Cyberpunk 2077 still arrives as a game that feels like it is being held together with duct tape. even your cherry picked review brings it up

Yeah I think it's a given that the game will be a janky mess and the fact that reviewers are mentioning them rather than giving the game over the top clamoring praise should tell us what we need to know. I am expecting terrible, possibly even famously awful jank and I'm still excited to play it but I recognize I might be in the minority there.

Zaphod42 posted:Cyberpunk 2077 draws heavily from its source material, with everything from the world itself to the life and death of Johnny Silverhand coming from its pen-and-paper inspiration. But unlike in a tabletop RPG, you aren't playing a role of your own creation in Cyberpunk 2077; you're playing V, and this is V's story, not yours. I often felt like I was role-playing two different characters: one V for the side quests and one more limited V for the main story. Not sure why you spoilered that part of the review, but if they played Cyberpunk 2020/red like that they really missed out. The "life path" system which the 3 separate origins is supposed to emulate is one of the niftier parts of the pen and paper game and potentially forces you to think about your character a little bit more as you have to adapt to whatever changes to the background the dice give you. This is the start of a cyberpunk red campaign a bunch of esports casters have been running, I've timestamped where they start rolling for lifepath background and events, some end up changing their initial character idea pretty significantly. Back up from the beginning if you like. Its a fun campaign to watch, sideshow basically has wisdom as a dump stat in real life so its always entertaining.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrFVYAnqVug&t=1813s

I think GiantBomb's argument on the city/setting actually feeling boilerplate's cyberpunk and the overuse of sex (hundreds of dildos!) as a shortcut of how edge and dirty everything is, are very fair points. When the game was announced in 2012 I thought in that moment "let's see what they do, because I played the original tabletop once and it seemed kind of boilerplate and full of tropes".
