- What does the redemption of Cyberpunk 2077 actually look like? In this documentary, GameSpot follows developer CD PROJEKT RED as they launch Cyberpunk’s latest expansion, Phantom Liberty.
We interview roughly a dozen developers on the difficult launch of Cyberpunk 2077, the changes the studio underwent afterward, and how all that has led to Phantom Liberty. We were embedded in the studio during launch so we were able to capture the raw emotions of what it’s like to launch a AAA video game. As fans of CD PROJEKT RED and their work, we wanted to get an inside perspective on one of the biggest studios, and one of the most controversial releases of all time.

Thank you chooms for the visit in the studio!
FSR 3 when?
I hope I will be passing by one day, Pawel, I'm not a journo but I have this on my bucket list :)
And thank you Pawel, and your team for not giving up on this game, update 2.1 and phantom liberty are both amazing. The game is finally a thing of beauty!
I hope Cyberpunk 2077 will receive a SDK/Worldeditor/Mission editor just like they are making for The Witcher 3 to give modders all the tools to make it last.
Pawel good luck in Boston choom!..hope you will be able to livestream when you are settled :)
Couldn't imagine the stress the developers were under. Glad they're now able to experience all the praise the game deserves.
Glad to see you here choom :)
@@zoltankoppel7818 same to you choom ;)
Well let's not pretend like they didn't release a completely broken game initially, and happily took people's money for it. I'm not saying they didn't redeem themselves because they definitely did, but they also deserved the hate they received initially. They knew what they were releasing, and they didn't have a choice but to redeem the game.
@@MrTerrorMG agreed..it's good they turned it around but that shouldn't have been the case in the first place..we can't be easily so forgivable to companies..when they mess up, we as paying customers, have to hold them accountable or they won't learn/change anything
@@MrTerrorMG not all of them knew everything but the leadership then was fully responsible and they were later replaced.
I love that this documentary focused on the developers and not upper management. I got real tired of seeing Marcin Iwinski's face apologizing for everything. Congrats to you all. You delivered a wonderful experience under completely unrealistic expectations.
he looks like hes just the scapegoat, the real guys in suits are what messed up the game
@@JerNorthhow poetic that the corpos were behind it…
I was the Misty Cosplayer in the video!
this video is fantastic and makes me super happy
yo! that's so cool. You look a lot like her. Amazing cosplay:)
I was never a CDPR fanboy as The Witcher never really did it for me, but as it is Cyberpunk2077 is one of my favorite games of all time
Not sure why you're using "fanboy" in this context. It's possible to have enjoyed Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk and not get foamy around the mouth, if someone has a negative opinion of either of these games.
@@PaulSzkibikI tried Witcher 3 for 20 hrs and I was superbored, Same with Cyberpunk after patch 1.6, so I was dissapointed. BUT after patch 2.0 and the DLC is Cyberpunk one of my TOP 5 great games :)
@@paja13 I remember REALLY not enjoying my first couple of hours of witcher 3, attempting to play the game and also dropping it twice. And two years later I picked it up again because I thought "I must be missing something" and somehow the third time was a charm and it was one of the best gaming experience I've had.
Again, it's no excuse but I think you're not alone in not enjoying Witcher 3 because somehow its greatness doesn't come through in the first hours. (Though 20 hours just seems like it's really not your jam and I won't be telling you to try again.)
Weird thing is, I don't even know what it is exactly that makes the first couple hours of the witcher 3 so underwhelming for many players.
Cyberpunk was entirely different for me. It was to some degree disapointing because it was not "as advertised" but I also have a tendency to take things as they are instead of being turned off by what something is NOT. So in the end, I also had a very good time with the game around launch.
I think a lot of players prevent themselves from enjoying something because of this or that design decision. As an example, for me it seems so silly to dismiss a game because it's third person or because it's NOT third person. And I'm like "m****f******r just play the game!" Don't skip it just because it isn't exactly like the other thing you really like.
Witcher and Cyperpunk are totally different kind of games. I know plenty of people who didnt like Witcher but love Cyperpunk. And I know a few who doesnt like fps shooter type of game and love Witcher 3 cus of the esthetic or medieval times. So i understand why one doesnt like the other. I happen to like both. i prefer third person games more than first person but Cyperpunk is a good game. Same dev studio can create totally different kind of games like Guerella who was known for fps shooters end up creating Horizon
i still love witcher 3 but cyberpunk just doesn't do it for me. Tried to replay it for the dlc but it felt like such a chore
Cyberpunk went from a game I knew was really good and was bummed I couldn't really play, to one of my favorite games of all time. Thank you, CD Projekt.
Glad to see that the people working at CDPR seem to like it there and enjoy their work also I am so thankful for them that they never stopped and abandoned Cyperunk 2077. For me it is the best game ever made.
Lol
It’s a selected group of figureheads that get paid well and are invested. (Minus the dogs)
It’s gullible to think all their employees are like that.
That said - I agree it is an amazing game and I will continue to support CDPR in any future releases by always being a day 1 buyer.
The main problem was with forecasting the production time and lining it up with marketing campaign. The hype was was way too big and the game still needed a year to be finished. The problem was that the stock was sky high due to the hype and investors would not accept another delay again. I actually think that one of the reasons the game was fixed is that CDPR has only one other IP and with Cyberpunk being dumped there was a chance the company would either have to be sold or they would need to release as many Witcher related games as possible very soon while their Witcher mobile game wasn't a success, so they had no choice but to be stuck with fixing Cyberpunk. They puled off a miracle and many things were against them. There was the huge hack they experienced and then Witcher 3 Next Gen version was being made in Ukraine when the war broke out. I think it was right that the remaining founding CEO stepped down as well. They went too big without needed experience.
My fav game ever
It's cool that the devs didn't go online and start insulting and getting into fights with fans.
10/10 points to the editors and directors of this video.
The edit and music and shots cinematography is phenomenal.
Agree. It was always the strength of the game even on launch
The saddest part of this all is that I won't find another game I love this much for many years
orion is coming
@@eroilya BG3
@@axelf4515I don’t like the combat in that game.
GTA 6
Played since Day 1, always loved Cyberpunk 🔥
Peak fiction even from day 1, im glad they restructure the company and made proper changes
Same, played since Day 1, loved this game back then and I am so glad they stuck by it and made it even better.
@A7XKoRnRocks1 100% I'm in the same boat. I loved the game even more once it was fixed. I really enjoyed it on the PS5. I just wish you could just be able to continue the game after beating it.
Absolutely. I played on PC and enjoyed every minute. I do sympathize with previous-gen console users and their launch issues - to that end, I really do wish CDPR had never attempted to support such old hardware. Caused massive delays and still ended up with severely compromised stability and performance. But now moving forward, CDPR is wiser and a little more bruised which means their next major title will be yet another masterpiece. Long live CDPR!
@@Frank7Gwhat do you mean? After every ending, you spawn in the city, get a reward and can continue playing and doing all side quests, etc.
Edit: it might not be every ending, maybe I'm mistaken. But I remember I could continue after some of mine.
@@Stefan_1306 So the ending that I got was where I go off into space and once that's done. Basically the credits roll and I can't do anything after that when I go to reload the game. It goes back to the last mission of the game. That's when I tried the second one and did not go to the outer space hospital thing. Credits rolled same thing couldn't do anything after that. 🤷🏽♂️
Honestly, a round of applause for CDPR. This is truly an amazing redemption arc, I can't imagine what everyone has gone through. I'm really proud of them and it was so great to get an peak at the type of people who worked on this amazing game. I hope they all get the acknowledgment and reward they deserve. This became one of my favorite games of all time and I look forward to their next projects. They earned my trust and support.
760 hours played (still finishing this last play), so many moments that will stay with me forever. I will be waiting for the next game from CDPR. They have my top 2 in The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077.
You can tell these developers are extremely driven & passionate.
I think outside some really greedy mobile gatcha game developers, most people are in the industry because they are passionate about games or the underlying fields (sounds, music, engine, 3d modelers etc), "even" for developers working unter currently not so hot publishers like EA, Blizzard etc.
I really believe that games are only ever bad, because people at the top keep mucking it up, not becuase of lack of talent or passion.
I think there's probably more to what you see. Likely a few people who are more competent but being shut down, and a few in management who do more harm than good. There's no way that the entire team got through it happy go lucky.
The fruits of their labor truly paid off. Cyberpunk 2077 is phenomenal, and made for a compelling experience as a whole. CD Projekt Red continues to show the industry how great storytelling, gameplay, and community is what makes a fantastic video game experience. They deserve all their flowers 💐 for this accomplishment.
Thank you for this documentary. As a player who loved the game on PC since day one, this might sound cheesy, but this documentary made me emotional, because I was always rooting for this game. When I completed it, it became my all time favorite game. It was always playable on PC, but on day one, it was missing some features like water physics, getting out of vehicle physics, etc, but going through the quests, the gigs, even the ncpd scanner hustles let me know that the game has so many great stories and messages to tell and despite missing some features at that time, I fell in love with the game and its strengths greatly outweighed the missing or weak features like the police system, vehicle combat, etc. To me, the game was always so much more than those things. I didn't stop playing since day one so I experienced how it improved every time a big patch dropped and honestly, it was a wonderful experience because it was like there was always something new to the game. It kinda became like a live service game for almost 3 years. I can say so much more about this game but this will be a wall of text so I'll just say that I've played so many great games including The Witcher 3, but no other game have moved me as emotionally as much as Cyberpunk 2077 did. This game is home to me.
I played the original release on PS4 and even tho that platform got the worst of the bugs, I wasn't affected too heavily luckily. I always saw what was lurking underneath the hiccups and absolutely loved it.
man that last line hits for me. there is something so familiar and comfortable about night city for me at this point. it's one of the most beautifully realized cities I've ever seen in a game, and I absolutely love wandering through every square inch of it. it might be my favorite game of all time too. the amount of love and passion poured into the art direction makes itself extremely apparent by just looking any direction in night city.
this game came along at a very difficult time in my life so it'll always hold a special place in my heart. I have so much love for it and can't wait to see what the future holds
The good of the game at launch absolutely did not outweigh broken features such as police. Stuff like that was an embarassment. It broke immersion, got in the way of moments that were meant to communicate the oppressive atmosphere and message of the game, and quite frankly they were features that GTA did well back on the PS2.
That said, I'm glad the technical aspects of the game finally measure up to the vision of it.
Baldur's Gate 3 is the best game ever made followed closely by The Last of Us Part 1.
@@Karlach_ For you... but we all have different tastes. Maybe games like Baldur's Gate or RDR2 are masterpieces and technological feats, but personally, although I have tried them I have never been attracted to them because I have simply never been a fan of the medieval fantasy environment, nor ancient, nor old west, nor wild nature... for some people we are more fascinated by the modern, the technology and the future... and Cyberpunk2077 is perhaps the best futuristic-themed video game, and Night City is the most beautiful city in a video game.
Fully redeemed in my book. It's a god damn masterpiece. It's almost unbelievable that a game like Cyberpunk 2077 exists.
😂😂😂
Wait for their next game and then we’ll see
🤡
I basically said the exact same thing the other day to one of my friends.
@@TheKazragore a clown spotted
It's amazing to see them smile at the time of phantom liberty release. I really always loved cyberpunk 2077. I could see what the passionate people wanted us to see underneath it all. I'm glad it's now possible for everyone if they choose to see how beautiful cyberpunk is! The team at cdpr for cyberpunk is incredible and they deserve this win.
They don't, they added a fraction of the features they promised in the base game.
They already have it, too bad for you stuck in the past.@@giglioflex
@@Larisiahott I didn't name any specific feature lol.
@@giglioflexmost of the overhyped features were made up by the internet.
@@giglioflex Like what?
This is arguably my favorite game of all time. I came back around a few months ago to trying it again after buying at launch. This game is 10/10 and I need more
The game deservers at least 2 more years of continuous development
You should try the Cyberpunk: Red Tabletop RPG if you really can't get enough Cyberpunk.
I don't know how to describe my great love for Cyberpunk 2077, thank you for bringing this game into the world >
Best game this year. Phantom Liberty is a redemption from the rough launch 3 years ago. I love this game. 👏👏
What so good about phantom
@@user-xl6yo5dr6p They took everything that was already good in the base game, like the writing, characters, world building, gameplay, music, level design, and made it *better* with Phantom Liberty. "Somewhat Broken" is probably my favourite gig in the whole game. Over an hour of pure exhilarating nope nope nope.
Why do they always do this to me 😭 Make me cry. CP2077, Edgerunners, Phantom Liberty and now this. Love this game so much. Thank you CD Project Red for not giving up on us Night City Citizens ❤️
Phantom Liberty is mindblowing, Cyberpunk is my favorite story game of all time with Mass Effect trilogy at #2
A beautiful human story of overcoming defeat. Thank you CDPR for pushing through and creating my favorite game and DLC of all time. Your redemption arc is well-deserved. And thank you GameSpot for this showcase of talent and passion.
This just proves that the problem was purely with their upper managment, Ok the pandemic that shall not be named affected everyone, but 2077 was in dev for a lot longer than that. And it sounds like there was 0 managment on the game, they just left the devs to work in their little bubbles and hoped they would be able to smooth out the problems at the end.
The "siloing" of devs, and the story of how devs would just make a new shader when needed instead of finding one that was likely already made by someone else is just a clear demonstation of a lack of managment.
And you can see that after they got their pipelines and workflows in place they can make a genuinely amazing title with PL, everything in PL was so much tighter and had so many layers of depth under it, which you can really notice if you look at the non main story side of cyberpunk's world.
Just blindly blaming upper management is oversimplifying the entire thing. They're an easy scapegoat. The siloing could have just been because it had worked in the past when they were a smaller studio so they just stuck with that as it had guided it them. Not everything is black and white as you're making it seem.
As an additional factor, back when investigative pieces were coming out there was mention of the team leads telling management it’s impossible to release a quality without an additional 2yrs. Ultimately leading to 6 months of the requested 2yrs being reluctantly given after weeks of daily begging for more time.
@@caster269 I would also add that those investigative pieces don’t showcase the attitude of the whole studio
@@gauthamiyer2998I have to disagree, upper managment failures have been cited in basically all of the last decade's worth of game development controversies. CDPR is just one of the most recent examples.
Upper managment needs to have a relatively tight rein on the dev team otherwise you end up in situations like Anthem, where the lack of clear direction results in the game being remade from the ground up again and again, until someone else stepped in and gave them the direction needed.
Then relying on "Bioware Magic" to get the game across the finish line, with the promise to the community that they "will fix it in post", all the while the devs who have made multiple games at this point have to go into hypercrunch to get any of their work to be seen.
Sound familiar? From what people like Jason Schrier have said its almost word for word what happened with 2077
@@Spidd124 and we know these things from people like Jason Schrier, who are interviewing a handful of people at best to write his story. That’s not the entire studio and the story of failed game launches are only told through the eyes of the people he spoke to…not the studio at large. It is very easy to blame one thing or one group of people for all the issues, it is far more likely that there were numerous issues with cp2077’s development and not just management. Just blaming only management (who have a tough job themselves btw) is just lazy journalism.
Thank you chooms at CDPR! I had a blast since day 1! A lot of bugs but a lot of fun too. Amazing characters, amazing story, amazing weapons and Night City is my favorite open world city ever.
So glad that CDPR hunkered down not only to fix the game, but the issues within the company that caused the issues in the first place, while from what it seems not just burning out their teams in the process, but empowering them to work together and more efficiently.
This game is truly a masterpiece at this point, the main story is incredible and honestly always was even at launch, now with the 2.0 update and the addition of Phantom Liberty it takes storytelling to a whole new level, the emotions and acting that are in this game truly feel unequaled by any other game currently out, as well as the deep understanding of Cyberpunk and how gritty, dark, brutal, and sad the world really is and somehow focusing in on that they still shine a light on the humanity, beauty, and peace that we experience.
Thank you CDPR for dedicating yourself to creating such an amazing experience and I look forward to what next you have in store for us!
1989 RPG was my WORLD... You have brought that to life for the ENTIRE WORLD❤ I can not thank you enough! BRAVO🎉🎉
The greatest gaming comeback ever. The story is awesome. Characters are so diverse and interesting. The ambience, the music, Night City.
I work in the Agile Project Management side of Software Development and can tell you I see this every day. No matter how good or bad the decisions of the company are, underneath that there’s always just a team of awesome people trying their best to make something they’re proud of and that people love.
People often assume the technology sector is cold and solely money driven, but while there are great and not so great staff members (like in any business) overall there’s so much passion and pride in what they create.
Awesome work team 👍
Bad launch or not, this game has brought me immense amounts of joy.
Same
My only gripe is that they're now focusing on making Witcher 4, when they should be focusing more on Cyberpunk Orion. Cyberpunk, based on their recent earnings call is a more profitable IP for them and is seen to surpass The Witcher 3 in sales. It's also a much better game, so I hope they start focusing on Cyberpunk Orion soon because we need that sequel. I love The Witcher IP. Unlike most people, I played 1 through 3 and even read the books, but objectively speaking as an RPG Cyberpunk 2077 is a better game.
Igor’s comment at 29:15 actually sums up cyberpunk 2077, something huge that at the end leaves you feeling melancholic, knowing you cant just erase your memory and start again, because of the incredible story you just witnessed, the incredible art, the characters and the music, score and OST. Absolutely beautiful. CP2077 deserves the 10/10’s and more. My favourite game of all time.
I bought Cyberpunk a few months after launch, after it had a bug-fix patch or two but no other content updates. It immediately became my favourite game of all time. It just spoke to me on a genuinely profound level. So happy to see people give it a chance.
Any of the team watching this, thank you, I liked the game at 1.0, loved it at 1.5 (70 hours playthrough) and now at 2.01 and Phantom Liberty it is my favourite game, at 100 hours play through and neither the main story of expansion are finished.
Hey choomba thanks for sticking with the series.
This game has become one of my favourite games. Well done to the team for turning it around
Phantom Liberty is a straight up banger!
Whoever edited this video did a phenomenal job.
I was skeptical about this game in the beginning, and I just never bought it and never played it until I played it 3 weeks ago and it is my favorite game now and it is totally amazing.
That's exactly how I was! Except that I bought the game like 5months ago when they went on sale and never touched it until 3 weeks ago. Now it's one of my favorite games.
Bought it last year. Barely touched it. Then heard about this update and I’m so happy I purchased it.
It was the show Edgerunners that peaked my interest enough to buy the game. By that time, a ton of awesome mods existed, which fixed the map crash I was experiencing. That was the only issue the game had for me. Fantastic game.
bought it about 2 years ago, decided to just wait and play other games until it was fixed, just started this week and so far really enjoying it, glad I waited to play the finished product, not many games like this come out often and I wanted to have the best experience. Will prob grab phantom liberty soon now.
never as a kiddo in the 8-bit 90s could i have imagined gaming in the world of Cyberpunk 2020 as vividly as CDPR's Night City brings it... it was a long walk true, but so worth it, thank you CDPR!! Gaming excellence
Cyberpunk fans been waiting forever for an actual good game hu 😂
Also: WOW Gamespot, this editing/structure of the doco - this is by far your best to date, amazing!!
Played it from day 1, loved it from day 1
Same man this game was amazing on my ps5 and series x from day 1 it's only got better and more amazing from then
Played from day 1, loved it from day 730.
It's been installed since day 1, even with no new content, the world is just fun to "live" in.
Same here!!!
Same
This make me appreciate the Dev’s so much more than I already have. Played on OG xbox with bugs and loved the game despite everything people were talking about. Great story, great side missions, great weapons, etc. Just an amazing effort and great post launch support.
These guys deserve to be proud without feeling like they are going to get a tsunami of hate.
Im so glad I've been here for the whole journey! This is definitely the type of rpg I've wanted for years prior to its release, so even with all the bugs at launch i had a (and still have) blast
I played first played it soon after its initial release years ago on Xbox series X and had nearly no bugs at all on my playthrough. It left a mark on me more than any game before. I played it again before any major update was released. I just started it again after Phantom Liberty and the improvements are dramatic. I am now playing through the game a fourth time. The only games that have left the same type of impact on me were Fallout 1&2, Baldur’s Gate 2 & 3, Planescape:Torment. It may be my favorite game ever.
Fallout 1 & 2
It was like a punch.
I have never had such immersion in a game (player's influence on events in the world - through decisions, conversations, etc.), and I have been playing since 1986. Then we had to wait a long time for something close to this GOAT.
I'm sure the guys (founders and partly owners of CDPR) played Fallout.
After all, their first success in Poland was the box edition of Baldur's Gate with translation into Polish by famous actors).
They were gaming maniacs.
Did the same exact thing I’m right there with you man. What a game🙌
Playing this on my Steam Deck OLED. The fact that it can run on the Deck is a testament to the Deck and this games developers. Amazing game now. Also running it thru my PS5 when I’m not on the go w the cloud saves. So so clutch!
As a web dev I'm familiar with transformations of organizations from waterfall to an agile organization. I was always curious how that would work in a game development company considering the process of design, development, and launch. It seems like the best process which is familiar to me in which the collect feedback and have these strike teams find a solution. Also the one person on his laptop doing the release also sounds familiar. lol
Great to hear about what happened from the people working on it and that they still have good spirits about it after this time. I enjoyed Cyberpunk 2077 despite the bugs when it released. Playing Phantom Liberty now and I'm loving it! Thank you for your hard work, CDPR!
I am so proud of CDPR. I only bought Cyberpunk in August after the release of 2.0 and Phantom Liberty and my experience has been absolutely incredible. I've loved every moment and just want more to be honest. Almost no bugs, incredible lore and gameplay, voice acting, world building and just the complete package has completely redeemed the launch in my opinion. Dare I call it a masterpiece. I can't wait to see what this team puts out next!
Cyberpunk 2077 made me love CDPR way more than The Witcher 3, that game is great but for me personally Cyberpunk 2077 is far above because of its atmosphere and tone, it's truly a next generation game.
Definitely 👍👍👍
I waited and played the game this spring and loved every second of it. I still have to play the updated version and the expansion, but I know it will take me another 200 hours, so I'm waiting to find the time for it.
I think the criticism for the lunch is warranted, but so is their dedication in fixing the game. Especially considering that it's a single player game.
I've missed meals and sleep since 2.0 dropped, simply because I can't put it down
First of all, as an art director, I would like to thank the entire team from the bottom of my heart for their sacrifices. It's a shame not to praise their masterpiece. Everyone can make big mistakes in life. However, what is important is the effort to fix this. As a veteran gamer who is a fan of tabletop Cyberpunk, I look forward to the changes that will be made to this masterpiece in the future. I wish success to the whole team.
So happy that they did in fact redeem themselves. Between cyberpunk and the Witcher. CDPR is a top 3-4 narrative driven developer for me. They are on the same level of Rockstar in my opinion
I have such immense respect and admiration for this team and what they've accomplished. The detail and love they put into these games is clearly apparent. Well done team, I look forward to seeing what you produce in the future!
This game enriched my life. I'm so grateful I live in this time when I can enjoy these amazing works of art. One of the all time greats!
It's not just a game, it's a philosophical epic, a fascinating world, and a simulation of the near future. . This team worked hard at all levels, and this documentary showed that in a very beautiful and expressive way.
As a software engineer myself, the "why would they want a walk button, isn't it faster to just run?" hits very close lol
I've seen so many product items focus on things like keyboard navigation in apps where user just wants to move a mouse and click a button, even if it is "slower"
This game generated sooooo much content it’s crazy
i didn't know about Cyber2077 until about 2 months before release, treated it as a linear rpg and loved it. did 2 playthrus
Just finished this game and looking forward to Phantom Liberty! Thanks for sticking it out!
Me and all my friends who played and keep play this game we give you a lot of love and respect from Romania 🇷🇴
Came for documentary, stayed for the dogs.
Doing gods work Chris.
Great job guys 👏
Amazing look inside the studio that brought us all my favorite game. I had over 1200 hours in it before the expansion... and now it's like whole new game!
Now I also want some Ciderpunk as well ;) Awesome documentary guys and CDPR devs for making this legendary game! You rock!
The fact this focuses on the humanity of the developers, is vitally important. Thank you GameSpot.
Heartwarming to see, keep up the good work! ❤
CDPR seems to have a good mindset and their team seems to genuinely enjoy what they're doing. I wish them the best for the future, and I'm glad they've become a big studio in the gaming industry. Can't wait for the next Witcher and Cyberpunk games, hoping next time they won't need a redemption arc.
Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the best video games I've ever played, and I played games for more than 20 years and I tried it all
You have not only gained my trust but also mesmerized me, the style look feel story’s, i havent played a game this good in my life, the detail everything is just sooo beautiful this game was art and i am so greatfull, they updated it even better than i could have asked for
This was such a good video, thank you for sharing it with us!
Its such an amazing game. Its deserves all the credit and so much more. Also, I'm so hooked on the game that the soundtrack is constantly playing in my home, truck and on my phone at the gym. Job well done, CDPR.
Phenomenal documentary! Thank you gamespot!
You broke the scene with the best game in history, The Witcher 3, and despite the initial release, you have been the best company for years. Cyberpunk is another incredible work of art. You always manage to innovate, something that's difficult in the industry while maintaining coherence within the game. Keep up the good work guys, you are the best.
I just want to say to CD PROJEKT RED… you guys did it, you guys redeemed, and you made Cyberpunk 2077 into one of my favorite games of all time ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Please with Orion, don’t make the same mistake and please be sure it’s ready by launch if not, us fans are ok with a delay over a broken glitchy buggy on release game ❤️
Cyberpunk hit me really hard from the very first time. And it's only gotten better. Thank you CDPR for making this absolute gem. There's no feeling just like leaving the real world and falling into Night City for a few hours. Thank you ❤️
Love the game since day 1 and really happy to have a glimpse of what the team went through! Hope they get the feedback they deserve after bringing such an amazing game and world to us !
This was awesome. We need more insight into the studios just like this. Helps us gamers see the human lives behind the games we love. When you see people and not just studio logos it helps to put everything into perspective. Well done to all involved in making this doc.
i don't care what anyone says, Cyberpunk has been perfect for me since the beginning and I experienced the least significant bugs, if any. The story, detail, emphasis on quality, everything came together to create this world that will forever resonate with me. I wish I could personally thank each and every person that made this happen, hopefully we get more in the future and the series builds.
YES! CDPR did Phantom Liberty so well, they more than redeemed Cyberpunk, they made it art!
Cyberpunk 2077 is my best gaming experience so far. Kudos guys, you deserve the hype and the respect for the work you kept doing after the "release fiasco".
Great squad! I hope they can keep it going pushing out some great content. I'm a fan and supporter for sure! Awesome job chooms!
Great documentary! I would love to see more content like this.
I love this kind of content, thank you!
Its good to see that some sort of redemption arc is developing for CDPR: Cyberpunk was not a horrific game, it was just unbelievably premature. I may have to revisit it soon with this new DLC on the way.
So worth it, if you still liked the game (minus the bugs) earlier on. They've greatly improved!
Been with the game since launch and I would dare say the expansion is better than the base game. Love them both so much.
DLC is already available since Sept 2023. You should definitely buy and play.
it honestly rocks now, definitely recommend giving it a revisit
I remember when I first played cp2077 back in release, while worked I’ve seen enough bugs to tell myself “man this needs to go back in the kitchen. it’s not fully cooked yet.” Tell you what after playing the 2.0 just feels amazing I’m glad cdpr worked the extra mile to fixed everything than just to abort it. They have my respect. Still want my chrome skin though gotta have my silver surfer play through (ya I know about mods).
I'm so glad they are back. It was heart breaking for me on what happened during Cyberpunk 2077's launch because I have been rooting for them since The Witcher 3 days.
Cyberpunk 2077 + PL are narrative masterpieces. The worlds are so amazing and always enjoy my time playing the game and the worlds are incredible to spend time in. Thank you for all your efforts!
Always felt the issues derived from a project management issue and it seems that was the case. Glad they’ve made it more agile and the communication more open!
Liked it even at release, Cyberpunk 2077 joins Star Control II in my (personal favorites) book as an absolute gem in gaming history. Not in terms of difficulty, but in terms of ambiance, story and complete immersion into that awesome world. Leaves us just wanting more. P.s. watch Edgerunners series if you need extra fix.
When 2077 came out I loaded it up, struggled to play for about an hour, and then deleted it and said okay, I’ll come back whenever it’s ready. I’m finally playing through it pretty much blind after buying phantom liberty and I can say it’s easily one of the best games I’ve ever played. Well done CDPR.
It's very touching and inspiring at the same time, watching this made me realize that CD Projekt RED really pushed themselves from an indie developer to an exponentially huge game developer. It is important to note that their drive to achieve their vision is truly remarkable. Really appreciate your efforts and hard-work to cater to our satisfactions. And special thanks to GameSpot to capture these moments for us gamers and let us know how they felt and how they are feeling now. Just wanted to let it out there...even though its just a GAME CHOOMS!
Gabe and all the devs in CDPR are amazing!! thx for a incredible experience!
What a beautiful way to the developers who creeated this amazing game. Seing this really is fullfilling. Thank you so much for every single one who worked on this game and never gave up. Thank you
More of these please! Well done!
After playing WoW and FF14 for more than 10yrs pretty much non stop, I decided to take a break and started playing Cyberpunk 2077 a few months ago and I can honestly say the game is totally amazing. Incredible work, passion and effort from all the people involved who made this happen. top tier. 🙏
I would say they redeemed themselves easily. It’s truly a triumph and I’ve only played one of the endings. Can’t wait to replay it
Still doesn't even have a working train in the game or wall running lol big flop
@@obikiller1Doesn't need either of those when every other aspect is fun
@@thewatcher7940 and a refund to all the customers who bought it earlier for false advertising on a unfinished product
@@obikiller1 what will you use as Argument, now that they added a Metro?
@@martinum4 unfinished product at launch scamming millions of players the said you could wall run with mantis blades and so many other lies
This was a nice ad, is good to see the human part of these companies, something we couldn't see in TGA. Those devs are real warriors and what the leadership done to them (and to us) by forcing a release is unforgivable and I hope the industry doesn't forget it, and learn with it.
Amazing comeback story for CD Projekt, finished Phantom Liberty and it left me know awe. Great game, story, voice acting, graphics, and overall flow... Bravo.
I didn't play the game on release when I heard it needed some time. Played it in one fell swoop last week. Thank you for following through, sticking to it and delivering a great game. I really enjoyed it!
I played the game day 1 on PS4 for around 80+ hours although it was broken but i somehow managed to have a lot of fun with the game.
I'm playing Cyberpunk for the first time currently (w/ the DLC) and I must say the game is great now; between it & the anime its becoming one of my new favorite settings.
That being said, will have to wait until their next project release before I can say I have full faith in CDPR again like I did before or like I do now for FromSoft & Larian & Insomniac.
honestly, I was very upset for buying this game on day one launch, i felt I got burnt, but actually, listening to the guys and the staff, now I see, they delivered what they could but then went on to make it great, currently playing through the full game and I'm loving CYBERPUNK!!! thank you CDPR, you guys are amazing!
I absolutely love this game. I've never replayed game so many times. This was a well produced documentary. I'd love to see more documentaries like this
