Cyberpunk is much more this site's kind of game than The Last of Us.

A little, but this site does really like the first TLoU, more than Uncharted, probably because its more of a narrative driven adventure. Additionally, Cyberpunk is much more like Deus Ex than it is something like Fallout or The Witcher 3. One thing that got lost in that games trainwreck of a launch is a third of the playerbase disappointed that it wasnt Cyberpunk Witcher, a third of the playerbase disappointed it wasnt Cyberpunk GTA, and a third who liked their open world Deus Ex.

All of this is not to say that TLOUII is a flawless game that people will love as soon as they play it. For instance, I really like that game, and the last chapter was a mistake. Its enough to send it from way better than the first game to below it in my eyes. It definitely wouldnt be its equal. However, the bulk of the pushback was to do with factors outside the game that will be forgotten, whereas with Cyberpunk it was mostly the games fault. This is why I feel TLoUII has a much better chance of improving its reputation than Cyberpunk. If people are still on about TLoUII in ten years, that says more about the people than the game.
