I fail to see how that question is relevant since this game is a AAAA game /s

You have to wonder if they ever played Cyberpunk 2077 (incl. Phantom Liberty) before they came up with that line. The only AAAA game. Maybe not the best game ever, but it definitely felt like the most expensive game ever.

I played base Cyberpunk and I'd like to refund the 60h I played. Thankfully I pirated it, I would not have payed a dime. However I hear comments like: "Phantom Liberty is what the game should be" I watched no spoilers, is it worth playing for me if I despised the base game?

If you've played a game you despise for 60h then I think your opinion on that game is invalid and your opinion on games in general is suspect.

I don't know how much I played down to the minute, but that's a good estimation. The reason is because I really would love to love this game. Everything is just a bit off from being good, after that shitass ending and copy-pasted sidecontent, I got so mad at the little things that the whole domino stack fell.

It's one of the newest RPGs yet it playes like (or worse tbh) than Skyrim. It rivals for best graphics, yet there is no life anywhere. The story urges you to play thur fast, yet the game wants you to discover every corner, making a huge disconnect between narrative and gameplay. The skill tree is so bad, I don't even want to talk about it, let's just act it doesn't exist. The drip in the game is rarer that in Elden Ring. Weapon modding is discouraged as all mods (at least shat I got) are bad and unremovable. Gun play isn't that bad, I give you that much. However, the guns that you choose to shoot (mostly the how you choose it) is bad, if higher fps than let's switch. All cybernetic augments are either skill tree replacements or fucking expensive good for nothings. The "hacking" in the game took everything that was bad from Watch Dogs and watered it down to a soulless version. The NPC's AI are super fucking dumb. Stealt is literally not an option because of this, it's a flagship openworld rpg, what you mean I can't stealth. The origin selection is a scam. They did nothing with braindance, yet it has a whole storyline. They did nothing with Johnny yet it's the whole fucking game somehow.

I could explain all of these points in a paragraph, however I don't have the time. I won't even proof-read, it might have a bunch of errors, it is what it is.

Well, some people are just stubborn. Same reason LOL has so many players that hate the game but still play it daily.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

I think they just say that. If they truly hated it they'd stop playing, unless they get paid to play. What they have are gripes with the game.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Probably not. There are some games that I really enjoy with some mods loaded that I would never play un-modded, so that may be worth checking.

To me that's honestly more RDR2. That games amount of detail is pretty staggering.

You forgot about the 5th A and the 3 Rs

Oh, AAAAARRR! Because it's a pirate game! Duh.

I don't see than in the article though.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Might have been a comment on the post here. shrugs I'm sick, and tired, so that's the best I can do.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago

I'm surprised that they even thought that they would come even close to outperforming the AAAA battery and even dared to put themselves on the same level as it.
