All the people in here arguing that the game isn’t broken because they themselves can tolerate the broken things in it are very confusing to me.

Console gamers paid $60 for a product advertised for their machine. That’s why they expected it to work as-advertised. You don’t need to defend a corporation.

What’s wrong with asking companies to do better? Complaining about false advertising is pro-consumer and honestly completely unproblematic.

Did you notice the weeping angel cars? In an area with lots of car if you look away and then look at the cars again they can change model, change colour or just completely vanish. I haven’t heard many major game breaking things so far but the game definitely need more work. From cops with non-existing chasing AI to…

I’m on Steam on a very good computer, and there have been a bunch of bugs, not many that make it unplayable but one in particular that really annoys me is this kind of screen jittering that occurs when I unpause, or when sneaking in certain areas. This usually lasts for 30 seconds and it really hurts to look at. And…

So, you’re a baby for wanting something you paid $60+ for to work or run at playable FPS? Lol ok

What system are you playing on? Most of my friends with XBOX or PS4 have found it to be unplayable at the moment. 

Well, I DID apologize in advance.

Ok Neil deGrasse Tyson

Sorry to be that guy but,.....

This is a bad take, coming from someone who works in a parallel industry ( with many of the same production problems ) where my job is completely reliant year to year on viewer ratings and episode reviews. Awards like these do not effect the vast majority of the people who contribute to these things and most places…

Also Animal Crossing where Nintendo delayed it because they don’t do crunch. They treat it like a 9 to 5 job as should be the standard.

I can guarantee you non of the people making bonuses off of this game are the ones affect by crunch. The ones getting the bonuses are the one implementing the crunch. That’s why they get the bonuses.

Video games want so much to be like movies in every respect, except when it comes to their labor practices.

Good management ability should be rewarded. If anything, that would send symbolic signals that hopefully will shift the culture of game development. Hearing how Hades was developed made me want to play the game more, and that is something we should promote.

I mostly agree, and of course this isn’t a review of anything. However, I do think an argument could be made that previous behaviour that affects customers is pertinent information?

That seems like a rather misguided take, or at least is ignoring the nuances of complexity for each game. Just the hours it takes to beat says very little about how complex a game is. Was it a simplistic 2d platformer with minimal controls or was it an expansive 3D open world game? Was it only in English with minimal…

This is all very scummy and worth writing about. I question whether a review of Cyberpunk 2077 is the right place to do it. People are looking for a review of the GAME, not the PUBLISHER.

This was a great read. Thank you for it, and I’m sorry you are being harassed because you didn’t say Cyberpunk was the second coming of Jesus like everyone expected.

I’d help but I took a linear-fusion shot to the knee!
