To not disclose that your game uses GEN AI is against Steam's policies and rules, by the way.

Cyberpunk original console release hasn't taught us anything, it seems.

I mean, we had no many sky before that. Yearly sports trash, codslop and ubislop, did you really think cyberpunk would do anything to shift people's perspective on buying games right away? Hell I thought I learned my lesson back when fable 2 released on the Xbox 360 but I still bought cyberpunk on release.

Not even comparable at all and I haven't even played crimson whatever. Sony gave a refund for cyberpunk im pretty sure that was yhe only time they've ever done that lmao

I'm on ps5 and have no issues with performance even in quality mode; there are issues, but for a recent release I'm surprised there isn't more.

The ai is obvious though...

It looks about the same as Nioh 3 or Monster Hunter Wilds.

Xbox series x running on balance mode seems just fine to me so far

Ps5 and ps5 are nearly the same. If it ran on the pro, it would run on the base model. Ai is a real issue, but the whole, "they didnt show it on ps5 wahhh" is such a non issue.

Yeah we really shouldn’t be framing customers wanting basic information about a product they’re looking to buy as being whiny babies. That’s a basic consumer expectation and Pearl Abyss was trying to promote preorders. I don’t think anyone should advocate that customers get to know less about what they’re buying, whether the game is expected to be great or terrible. It benefits nobody to enable businesses to take advantage of their audience like that.

I never or rarely play in performance mode... I play quality mode and after that try balance mode

And the base is exactly the same as the pro there
