At least everyone knows not to trust this dev anymore and won’t buy the game until it’s actually finished

Sad this likely means the first one never gets finished

Speak for yourself choom. I'll buy that scop on launch day. (I only preorder RGG games cuz they have never missed)

The first one was finished, and is a fantastic game.

[–] [email protected] -3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

CP2077 was not finished when it came out at the end of 2020.

This revisionist history of it being complete on release will get no traction here.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Literally nobody said that. Your username checks out.

It was finished and buggy.. it's now finished, fixed and expanded.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

Right now is where it should have been on release.

If it's good enough for Gibson, it's good enough for me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

It was pretty damn solid. I didn't finish it, I had fun running around blasting gang members. Ducking through alley ways was the shit.

Not feature complete to pre-release promises/expectations

You don’t have to lie to justify your purchase, you can enjoy it for what it is

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The game is finished. Maybe not finished to your expectations, but it is definitely finished, and is a damn fine action RPG. And Phantom Liberty is the best damn DLC for any game I've ever played since the Shivering Isles for Oblivion.

Calling others opinions lies just because you don't appreciate what they're saying is what we in the industry like to call a "bitch ass move".

Reconsider what you responded to and what finished means

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

I don't need to reconsider shit, the game is finished, and is amazing.

[–] [email protected] -3 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Yeach . It had rocky start but damm disregarding bugs the praises were more than deserved. Literally the best action RPG that exists.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

A rocky start? It got removed from the game stores and full refunds given. That's not a simple "rocky start" the released a pre alpha at full price.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 2 days ago

It's absolutely a fantastic game. I'm glad Gibson is giving his blessing for the sequel, I'm looking forward to it!

[–] [email protected] -2 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Literally the best action RPG that exists.

Spoken like someone that has played about four or five video games in their entire life. It's not even an RPG. It's a shitty first person shooter with pointless skill trees tacked on. Even if you were to classify it as an action RPG, it doesn't crack the top 20.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago

It absolutley does. Also cyberpunk actually gives you a lot of freedom on how you aproach combat. Can you play it as mindless shooter. Yup . But you can also play deus ex like that and no one calls it a shitty first person shooter ( even tho thats technicaly the easiest way to finish the game ). And as far as the world and story is concerned its equisite. As far as whetewer its an RPG or not. If mass effect is an RPG than so is cyberpunk i think . Very subjective thing in general . Definietly not a hill im willing to die on.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

What a blisteringly stupid thing to say, considering art is subjective.

[–] [email protected] -3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yeah their greed is disgusting. I wander how many DLCs they'll make for this next one before it's finished

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Expansion packs have existed since the 90s at least. There were also special editions and stuff before DLCs were possible.
