So anyone here interested in this game?

This might be better than the game

Too bad for Keanu, that he hitched himself to this. He deserved a better game to be associated with, like Red Dead 2.

Eh, I suspect he’ll be fine.

Yeah, but he's a really cool guy. He deserves better.

I haven’t totally given up on the game. I feel that, given enough time, CDPR are going to fix it and make it into something incredible. If that never happens, well then, yeah, I was wrong. It’s just that I’ve learned that not all games that launch with rocky starts end up being terrible games.

I could say I feel bad for those who bought the game on day 1, but I don’t. Folks should know by now that games these days aren’t generally worth buying until they’ve had several rounds of patches.

It is not the bugs that make the think that. It is the number of people saying how shallow the game is, and how there are no real options in dialogue, or a reason to care about any of the npcs giving you quests, and things like that. I don't see that ever being fixed.

Yeah; I expect a few clipping issues or glitches in any new game; but if the storyline is empty of any reason to immerse yourself = that isn't a problem that can be patched out.

Imho; they did an excellent job of making the characters behavior realistic; but in watching the vid it really did feel like he was being pulled here and there without me really knowing/understanding why; and the dialogue never really cleared that feeling up for me. (but that could be just me; some of it might be referring to historical references a fan of Cyberpunk would know that I don't).

Maybe not. We’ll see I guess.

Right, I know nothing at all about this game or its series. But this morning a local radio DJ (who is a huge gamer) was talking about how Cyperpunk's devs are simply giving out refunds. Not even bothering with patches. I don't know if this is true but having a quick glance at your all's posts here it seems to be. So sad.

I mean, the company has posted an apology, which I linked to a few posts up, and in that apology they say they are working on patches. So, again, we’ll just have to wait and see. Or not, I can’t buy games right now anyway so it may be a good thing I’m having to wait. If it doesn’t get better, then I’ll have lost nothing.

I learned something from Acadian and SubRosa right around the time Fallout 4 was months off from being released: Wait one year before buying any new game. Never pre-order them. The reason is three-fold:

1. You can see the reviews and learn about what issues it has had and whether the issues are being addressed without being the one who spent all that money for a game that isn't playing right.

2. If you don't mind spoilers; you can get a glimpse at the gameplay vids and see if it is even something you will really want to play.

3. After a year you can usually buy it on sale and pay half the price for it. I listened to them and ended up getting Fallout 4 fully patched for under 20 dollars.
