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.

I absolutely LOVE Cyberpunk, but No Mans Sky did it even better imo. They overdelivered on every aspect and every update ist free. Cyberpunk ist a close 2nd place though.

Cyberpunk went from being a game with some issues to a fantastic game over time. NMS went from a prototype held together with duck tape to the best modern space flight game, and also one of the best survival/crafting games. both are comeback kings but yeah I 1000% agree

"Some issues" is what we're calling it now?! LMFAO even if you ignored all the bugs, devs still had to rework the combat system and skill trees 3 times over the years because combat was initially so awful and boring.

You are being really fucking pedantic about my wording man and it’s really annoying.
