Current Events > Cyberpunk should've been a cancelled game

(+) Yeah! (+)

Honestly lol. They shouldve just focused on Witcher 4

word?

Yeah let's just cancel a 90% done game we poured millions of dollars into developing.

GOnna disagree. They should have finished it then released it. However, that being said, they were getting fucking death threats. How fucking stupid is that?

"Put out the game or we will kill you" doesn't make me want to push to get all the bugs out.

Why? It's pretty good. Gonna be even better once they get these issues ironed out and can focus on making actual content for it.

There are some things baked into it that can't be patched out without screwing up the writing though I think.

As long as they create strong content for it I think that'll make up for the stuff they can't really change.

They should have just delayed it really.

It should have definitely been cancelled on PS4 and Xbone and made a lauch title for next gen.

This. It wasn't ready clearly. I'm still having fun with it on PC, but there's certainly systems and features that need more work.

---

Should've been delayed until Holiday 2021.

the big thing i hope they address is the awful NPC AI and interactions with the player

Maybe.

I'm just realizing that there's a major disconnect between the flow of side missions and main missions.

And I normally enjoy extra story and explanatory dialogue, but thinking back to a main mission I did last night... there was one part where I had to visit a person for information. The slower pace and frequent interjections by other characters made sense here, I wasn't in a dire rush to complete the objective. Then proceeded to the next part of the mission, which, in theory, should have been more focused on trying to fight / sneak through a slew of enemies to complete an objective which the game put some amount of urgency to.

Yet as I try to clear each and every room for loot so I can move on, the supporting characters keep having to chime in and share their two cents about everything. Magazines, donuts, sex toys, whatever. To the point where I either ignore them and possibly miss out on some essential plot element, or ... I sit and listen to them blab for a minute at a time, totally ruining any sense of urgency I have to complete the mission.

I know open world games suffer from this in general, the world is collapsing around you but you're rescuing kittens from trees for 2 karma points a piece. So I anticipated that here, and honestly that aspect isn't too offensive to my senses because there is but also isn't a time crunch. But I didn't expect it to happen inside the missions themselves.

Well I learned something about side gigs that even though they may not be super in-depth for the most part they do effect the main story and dialogue. I had a dialogue option that directly referenced a random side gig I did in Chapter 1 with this person I was talking to. Gonna change how I play my next character entirely knowing this.

Also my dialogue options grow as I gain levels in attributes.

Witcher 4 would have been bad though

Like, just leave it on a high note.

---

It should have been cancelled for last gen. Only PC and next gen consoles can handle this really good game.

Buggy games are more likely than non-buggy games at this point.

But holy shit does this make people cry.
