like I wouldn't expect this. The same gamespot that gave GTA V a scathing review for its masculinity undertones

And PC Gamer
And GamesBeat

And other places that don't give a score.

Why do people always get salty over this? Saying GTAV is an 8/10 game isn't even controversial anymore.

some of the cons

https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/cyberpunk-2077-review/1900-6417622/

  • There's so much to do that isn't meaningful, so a lot of it ends up feeling superfluous
  • Superficial and often "edgy" aesthetic choices often have no real purpose, which makes them grating rather than adding anything relevant to the world
  • The incorporation of different cultures and backgrounds is wildly inconsistent, from good to inaccurate to downright offensive


So she's basically complaining there's too much to do in the game and she completely ignored doing most of the side quests.

oh yeah and of course, the typical political correctness BS gamespot is triggered by

If anything it's controversial to give it more than that

Only in gaming culture is an 8/10 review 'scathing'

Sorry now that I checked it was actually a 9/10 review.

I'm sure gamespot would have given a lower score if they could. They just didn't want to lose too much of their fanbase otherwise.

A game overloaded with worthless side crap is not a positive.

I have no idea if her statement is true or not, but let's not pretend that more is automatically better.

Yes how dare someone review a GTA game lower than 9/10. Critics nailed it with GTAIV.

I havent played the game but it is true, more stuff is not always better. and if this gamespot reviewer didn't craft or do some of those things, has anybody considered maybe those things aren't very useful to do, or there is little impetus to do it? It could be she was being lazy, it could be the crafting is just collecting thousands of "parts" to combine into "med packs" that you already have a million of.

Since none of us have played the game it seems weird we're calling her wrong when we don't know if she is right or wrong. Big, open world games have a habit of feeling hollow and fake, and maybe CP is no different.
