Poll of the Day > Cyberpunk 2077 is fun.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm having a grand time with it. Though it did take about 7 hours for it to really click for me. It's probably this decades Skyrim: incredibly buggy, but incredibly fun. I will say though that it's nowhere near as fun as Skyrim and at least 4x buggier.

Loving the game. Dunno if itll have the staying power that Skyrim has in the gaming zeitgeist though.

That's because plebs like generic stuff and don't own gaming PCs or current gen hardware.

I'm not currently playing CP2077 but the bugs are comedy gold.

Skyrim is a common game for common people. Cyberpunk won't have the same broad appeal despite deserving it.

skyrim is more complex than cyberpunk.

Hes not wrong. As far as actual gameplay goes theres a lot more complexity and options in Skyrim. Cyberpunk doesnt even have any system for NPC ownership of items so you can rob them blind right in front of their faces and they have no reaction

---

Like anything CDPR has done isn't also mainstream for common people. It's basically a meme to shit-talk Skyrim at this point.

I'm guessing that's not true. Skyrim is about as simple as it gets gameplay-wise.

what does this statement even mean

beats me, considering the alchemy alone in skyrim is more complex than anything in cyberpunk

I'm envying it a lot. The genitals options are great too!

The fuck is this?

I mean there are no stats, a very basic perk system, combat is left hand + right hand attack, spell, or shield. You don't even need to read quests because there's always a marker pointing directly where you need to go. NPCs are as dull and nondescript as could be. I actually love the game for its simplicity. Sometimes you gotta Keep It Simple Stupid.

Speaking of, there's a mod for Skyrim that lets you bone up and down in real time and watch your junk flop around with physics. Bet you can't do that in Cyberpunk.

Loverslab doesn't seem so optimistic, and they would know.

Theres as many stats in Skyrim as in cyberpunk, probably more actually. If youre talking attributes then that is different.

If you wanna talk weapon simplicity Cyberpunk gives you the option of one gun or a melee weapon.

Cyberpunk also has markers for every quest and actually shows you on the map all spawned dynamic events and points of interest

and if you wanna talk NPCs then Cyberpunk is about as bad of a recent example as you can find. In Skyrim every NPC has scripted behavior and actually has a routine and a place where they live in the world. In cyberpunk the generic NPCs literally stop existing if you stop looking in their direction for more than a few seconds

Doesn't Cyberpunk have four stats that do a number of things when increased? Skyrim only has Health, Magicka and Stamina.

Don't know how guns work in Cyberpunk. Do they have multiple stats, and can they be modified? Idk. Skyrim does have smithing and enchanting, so maybe it wins that department.

Skyrim doesn't show anything on the map except location markers. I would say Cyberpunk wins there for showing more interesting events on the map.

I was mainly talking about NPC appearance and personality. But yeah, Skyrim might win for NPCs having schedules and dynamic AI.

I haven't played Cyberpunk, but I maintain that Skyrim is a very simplistic game. I don't mean that in a bad way at all.

To be fair there are a lot of curmudgeons on loverslab. If it's at all possible it will happen.

What system?

If it's on the PS4 or Xbox One, then it's nothing more than a complete and total joke. PC and the PS5/Xbox Series X is the way to play it (even if the game is just running in backwards compatibility mode so far on the latter systems, due to extreme performance boosts).

I've done a lot of tinkering with the Creation Kit so I know it's a complex game, but every game is complex. In terms of gameplay, especially compared to other action/RPGs, it really is simplistic.

I play a ton of RPGs, and I strongly disagree

What other games would you say are more simplistic? Maybe we're working with different definitions of simplistic here because I don't mean it as a negative. It's really the type of game that you're supposed to get immersed in and roleplay and I think that necessitates simplicity.

Skyrim is a simplistic RPG, just as Fallout 3 and 4 are. I never heard anyone dispute that before now. Crazy times.

Same, Im having a lot of fun with it. The bugs are annoying as shit and the performance is atrocious, but I guess thatll just get me to play it again when I get a PS5

I mean Id call most jrpgs like final fantasy more simplistic because youre so limited in what you can actually do. Really Id put most RPGs into that category. Having more numbers on the screen doesnt mean theyre actually a complex game to me.

I think Id actually have a tougher time naming RPGs that I consider more complex than something like Elder Scrolls type games.

a lot of MMOs I would say fall into that category. Just because theyre so massive and have so many crafting systems and places for players to explore along with so many different builds available for characters.

The limitations are the complexity, no limits is simple like a sheet of paper.

If that were the case that I am Mayo ps4 game where all you do is tap a mayonnaise jar would be the most complex game of all time.

The game has been out for less than a week. Give it some time man! It won't be long till you can walk around with horse-****ed females and have ***** cyberware for your arms that lets you kill with cybernetically enhanced ***** thrusts.

I was talking to me friend on discord while he was creating his character. I was watching. And we starting laughing when that became the next option he had to choose. I still have no idea why. But we thought it wa pretty funny...

I just started playing for a few hours after the latest patch. I'm not usually too bothered by performance issues but driving is choppy and abysmal, but other than that I haven't seen any notable bugs or glitches yet. Also I'm on base PS4
