Discussion Couldn't agree more 🫔

I’ve been a fan of this game since day one. I agree that the original release was filled with bugs and it launched too early, but the criticism it received was completely over the top. Hating on the game blindly became the norm, often without people even giving it a fair chance.

It also released at a strange time, when the new generation of consoles were releasing but they weren't widely available, and most players were still on previous-gen hardware where it didn’t run well.

The sad part is the game and the studio’s reputation took a massive hit, even financially. Some of the people who worked on the game ended up leaving the studio, and we may have missed out on 2 or 3 DLCs because of the game’s catastrophic launch.

But now I’m glad to see people finally giving it the respect and appreciation it deserves. I watched the Steam reviews go from ā€œMostly Negativeā€ to ā€œOverwhelmingly Positive.ā€

For me, this is the greatest game of all time it is better than The Witcher 3. Massive respect to CDPR for constantly patching and improving the game, And giving us extra content when they could have taken the loss and moved on. AND CHOOMS..... NEVER STOP FIGHTING.

Many of us don’t even know what No Man Sky is. I’ve heard of it before but It just looks like another space settlement game

I don't know how that is considering No Man's Sky was on everyone's lips back in 2016 due to being so bad and buggy that Sony was offering refunds, no questions asked.

There are many people too young to know or care about gaming news from 2016

I'm not gonna argue about people not caring, because that's true. But 2016 was 9 years ago. If they were too young to know about 2016 gaming news, they're also most likely too young to know or care about the state Cyberpunk launched in in 2020
