We'll need to wait for the release. Before launch cyberpunk was also getting good reviews ;)

Honestly this is what pissed me off about the reaction to cyberpunk bugs. I remember how the fallout games were at launch. And I think even now trying to play new Vegas on Xbox (360 I think?) Has an issue if your save file gets too big where the save will corrupt.

CDPR definitely over promised. But every business does. They probably should've not released on last gen consoles at all, but that is tricky as fuck. I mean when they started to dev cp2077, I doubt Sony and MS even had dev units for next gen. Probably should've delayed last gen release only, made a transparent explanation and apology, and did what they ended up doing after release. But I had a low mid tier PC that played it at a solid 60 fps without major issue at launch. And it was exactly what I had hoped.

I'll probably also really like starfield, warts and all, when it drops. These are just my type of game.

I bought the fallout games at launch. I bought Cyberpunk months after launch when I found it on clearance. Cyberpunk was still far less playable for me than the fallout games were at launch.

This was due to:

  • The game crashing at least once per hour
  • Falling through the ground at least one per hour
  • Dying suddenly though nothing was attacking me at least once per hour
  • Questlines breaking and being un-repairable

Additionally, CP2077 had all the same bugs in Fallout/Elder Scrolls releases.

I usually power through buggy RPG releases, but I waited to give CP a couple more patches before actually trying to play through it.
