How the fuck, with the small team they had?

I know I'm late to the party but the depth of this game, I actually feel embarrassed for every other developer now. It's like they took every gameplay element and decided "let's do that, but better and more thoroughly".

Instant fanboy status achieved

It helps if you've got something to prove. Bethesda by comparison can sit on their arse now. When they were developing Morrowind [love it or hate it] they were as a studio in dire straits after Daggerfall. They had something to prove, they needed it to be special. Now they can coast as people will by whatever they shit out regardless. The question will be if CD Projekt do the same over the next ten years or not.

For comparison, Skyrim had a team of around 100. CDPR isn't some little indie developer. They're a large team with a lot of money behind them.

Makes me nervous about cyberpunk though

Uh...what? Daggerfall was criticized for it's bugs (Like any Beth game) but it won RPG of the year and sold well.

Unless you mean the studio with the new team without Lefay needed MW to be a success in which case fair.

Fair enough. I'm still impressed by how tight it is. Things work together rather than feeling disjointed or tacked on.
