I don’t understand the argument, either. For many people, the performance they are getting on their console is at the level of “does not work”.

I can agree this would be similar to purchasing a current release game for a PC cobbled together ten years ago.

But, PC has always been a single platform with varying degrees…

If I’m giving them the leeway of assuming best intentions, I get what Vigilance is trying to do in making people think about the human before reacting. But, being angry about a product that did not meet expectations is a consumer right. When it is a highly anticipated product, and there are multiple instances of…

And the same thought process is fueling sentiment against console gamers because there is the thought that somehow it is the console players’ fault that the game runs relatively poorly on a lot of PC’s as well.

But, the issue here is still that this wasn’t front and center for the majority of console gamers. Most of us here know that the ‘bullshots’ and screen time is on high-end PC’s running in a super-controlled environment.  But, we are a generally educated hobbyist audience.

“Well, while talking with Metro UK, CD Projekt Red level designer Max Pears assured the publication that the game will look as good on a PS4 as it did on the £2,000+ PC running the demo build. “It’s still going to look as good as that,” said Pears referring to the PC version of Cyberpunk.” 

“...with an Xbox One release still forthcoming”

So, you’ll be ‘Cullen’ some of your collection?

Yeah, probably at least one playthrough on my Xbox One X. Then, hopefully in a few months, maybe another playthrough on a Series X if I can ever find one.

And, it just feels right in Cyberpunk.  Most of the time, it only really affects people who get all the implants, or those that are allergic to the changes.  It never really felt like an attack on people wanting to do body modifications and chemical changes, and more a look at moving yourself further away from it what…

Only ever really got involved in Shadowrun when it came to table-top, but I’ve read the Cyberpunk 2013 and 2020 lore and been really invested in it.  I feel like I’m going to enjoy it well enough for the same reasons.  Personal character, personal character story, some cool set pieces, some hidden Easter eggs, and a…

It was the right game, ‘right’ attitude, at the right time. It was a quality title that released right next to a few other titles (like Dragon Age Inquisition) that were not as initially well-received.

My sympathies.  8 hours is my maximum, and even that is taxing.

The last time I spent more than that in a car was a trip from South TX to PA, and I was 10 or 11. We had three adults swapping driving, so they didn’t have to pay for a hotel. I had a Sega Nomad, a fist-full of batteries, and a back seat in a station…

I’ve been doing the math in my head all weekend about how I’m going to maximize my Cyberpunk playtime.

I feel like you’d end up missing so much by missing the first two games, and I feel like there is a lot of really good extra media to consume.

Pedigree, first off. Made by a company that earned quite a bit of goodwill by releasing a very good single-player game at a time when the industry was saying single-player western RPG’s were not the future. It introduced an open world mature RPG that didn’t rely on MMO style sidequests and collection goals. It could…

My vote is on Stefanie Joosten.

I get you. You are arguing from your perspective.

I haven’t yet.  I’m only comparing them to the previous Larian titles, but I am looking forward to it a little bit.

In the original ME trilogy, I really enjoyed the ups and downs of the various romances. Why? Because I don’t like being the bad guy. So, that meant that no matter if I was playing a soldier or an engineer, or whatever, I was always the paragon. It was a choice I got to make that made my experience with the story…

I’m one of those weirdos who like romance in my western RPGs, so Obsidian and Larian have been a bit of a letdown in that regard for me.
