That was my experience playing Cyberpunk at launch while everyone was up in arms about the performance issues. I was just quietly enjoying it and knew it was just a matter of time for the devs to resolve those problems.

I'm admittedly less patient/tolerant of microtransactions though, because they're intentional. They're the reason I feel like the mobile game market turned into to a cesspool.

Yeah I pretty much had this exact situation with Cyberpunk as well, maybe we are just lucky with our performance.

After reading your comment though, I feel like you're right about the microtransactions. While it does not affect me and my enjoyment of the game, it is a bad practice which ends up bringing down the reputation of an IP I like a lot, which is bad for everyone.

Thanks for the perspective and insight!
