      I am fortunate to play it on a pretty powerful Cybertron PC... I love it, have encountered minimal bugs although Im sorry for console folks that got the short end of the stick. I doubt CDPR will ever make this mistake again, if gamers are gracious enough to give them a chance to right the wrongs... (which I think they will)

      @@julianherbold7931 You are forgetting about other assets and reserves they had. They bought a new studio lately and renamed it to CDPR Vancouver. I think people forget that stock market price doesn't reflect the value of the company unless the company relies on fake created bubble, so they can cash in on selling stock. CDPR has not released much new stock lately. The stock price at the minute is only what you can buy and sell it for. It is not a gambling new tech company. They have lots of IP and Cyberpunk sold around 14 million by now, so no income on P&L but not loss and little taxes as they purchased more property. Shame the game is badly made though.

CDPR was beloved back then with so much hype, they could even delete the releases date. Just tell people "we adding more contents (whatever, it's true or not)".

      Pretty sure Rockstar started developing GTA 6 few years ago (last 1-2 years), so they spent 6-7 years on other projects. The reason why it took them long was not that reason but the hardware. They waited for new consoles, new hardware, and etc to release a bigger and better game.

      ​@@kylevernon It wasn't. The game was already many years in the makings by the time that they announced the game. And even more years in the making by the time they were first supposed to release the game. But absolutely everything went horribly wrong. Basically, the whole game had to be rewritten, funding was misplaced, the way the game was being worked on was not being made in tandem, but rather as though they were separate teams who at the end had to come together to put the jigsaw puzzle together, only to find out that the pieces didn't fit together. That's why much of the work had to be done all over from scratch, which led to a lot of the content being extremely rushed, with many employees being overworked, almost EA-style.

I believe it is but either it doesn’t matter. What matter is that they were ineffective at communicating with one another which heavily delayed every little single process. What happens is that once a certain hour limit is achieved in a work week, productivity drops significantly. So much in fact that Crunch time may have actually delayed the game.

    3. Exciting, organic random encounters while traversing the map
    4. More control over the main characters personality.
    5. A detective noir type expansion (this could add so many gameplay opportunities)
    6. They need more ways to interact with the world. Possibly through buying real estate, becoming a drug dealer, or creating your own gang.

Of course no one is talking about this, they are more focused on the surface level glitches and general playability, the game itself is fundamentally flawed, seems like the marketing team was given the reins for scope and the programmers were feverishly fighting to catch up.

    The disaster was technical in nature. But what became apparent much earlier on is that studio had a superficial take on cyberpunk as a genre. It was all cosmetic. Neon-lights, big skyscrapers, and graffiti. It's not at all like William Gibson's Neuromancer where the vast abundance of technology sloshing around through society turns a city into a vibrant ant-hill where everyone has some access yet none of it matches the amount of technology the wealthy few hold. Something Westworld truly nailed by digging deep into how technology breaks down barriers, and thereby, a person's autonomy.

    Summary: CD Project became greedy! They rolled on the "Witcher 3" wave.

    Sorry, but as a development studio, they'll forever be tarnished. Witcher 4 won't have anywhere near the budget that Cyberpunk nor Witcher 3 had and CD Projekt Red will slowly disappear, eventually being bought for pennies by some other developer/publisher a few years later who are only interested in the rights to their IPs.
    Look at Core who made Tomb Raider (Angel of Darkness destroyed them), look at Reflections who made Driver (Driv3r destroyed them).

    The fact is that CP2077 is very heavy on hardware. Vast majority of preorders were PC where the game looked fine, with clear compromises on AI and rather short main storyline. Decision to advertise and release such a resource heavy game on last gen consoles, as well as the lack of transparency about the abysmal performance on them, were huge and unforgivable mistakes. Another contributing factor was the availability of the new RTX cards / PS5/XS, which even today remains an issue. There is no mention however that as a result, Cyberpunk2077 accelerated the cloud gaming adoption (Geforce Now/Stadia). Thanks to GF Now, I spent over 100 hours playing this game on my old Macbook and loved every moment of it.

    They also scrapped a large chunk of the game and changed the story to fit Keanu in the game. Obviously it's not his fault but the management team running the show.

    CD in the Name CD Projekt does not stand for a CD (that games are sold on) but "Centrana Dystrybucja".

  • @redere4777
    @redere4777 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    The game should have been delayed until 2022 and only developed for next-gen consoles and PCs. CDPR would have been able to avoid a lot of issues from the tech limitations on last-gen and the disorganized development brought on by releasing during the height of COVID-19.

    • @axelpatrickb.pingol3228
      @axelpatrickb.pingol3228 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The game has been in development since 2016 after the last Witcher III DLC. And its original release date was nearly before the lockdowns (at least in Europe) were implemented. The fact that despite the 8 years it was in development, they only had 4 years of actual development done and those 4 years were a chaotic mess. It was not the pandemic that screwed over this game...

    • @redere4777
      @redere4777 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ​@@axelpatrickb.pingol3228 I know, though the fact that they spent almost the full last year of development outside the office further exacerbated an already large problem.

    Hang tough CDPR. There is a goldmine of learning if you want it. A direct path to total in house AAA know-how from scratch on a new engine, across all platforms at once, no micro transactions. But... you have to survive to reap the rewards. Also, pls pls polish this game steadily over time. It can still be a masterpiece in years to come and hopefully some great DLC too.

    After MGSV I learnt my lesson. Don't get hyped for any game release. Since after the PS3, ambitious developers have greatly overestimated how much their games can evolve.

  • @ev.c6
    @ev.c6 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I didn’t get the hype this game had, maybe because it seemed boring to me at first.
    Anyways, it was obvious they’d have problems. Rockstar is the master at making this kind of game and they have had a lot of issues themselves. Another company that has been through the same was DICE with Battlefield 4.
    Anyways, I’ll just wait until the game is stable.

  • @benl.1352

    The research they quoted for diminished return of productivity on overtime are based on a field construction labor study back in 1980. I would like to see updated research specifically on a more relevant industry that’s closer to the production cycle Projekt CD endeavored.

    I had almost zero issues on Series X. I think there were 2 crashes, and I beat all but the 1 ending. There might have a been a few glitches that I didn’t notice, or they weren’t memorable. Once I stopped comparing to TW3, and just appreciated CP2077 for what it is, I loved it!

      @jamesneedham6265 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Zack Smith Duke Nukem 3d was awesome. I presume you haven't played Cyberpunk properly which to be fair is quite hard to do given the shortage of next gen consoles an rtx cards.

      @Zack Smith Apparently Colonial Marines is allot better if you find the mod where a modder fixed a Typo in the AI code.

  • @BSLpro
    @BSLpro 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think if CDPR just delayed the game indefinitely and refunded preorders due to COVID, a lot of gamers would be angry but forgiving as soon as a more complete, polished experience might eventually be released. I enjoyed the game in spite of its issues but it could have been so much more if given the time.
