Everything I hear about AAA games is just straight garbage

You living under a rock? Ghost of Tsushima, Spider-Man, Elden Ring, God of War, Doom Eternal, RE8, and Tears of the Kingdom are awesome AAAs of just the past 5 years to name a few.

It's just that bad games tend to get more publicity cuz the mob likes to shit on them. Tbh, Cyberpunk wasn't even a terrible game, it just dropped with performance issues that took over a year to mostly fix.

I'll give you that all recent Ubisoft titles have sucked though.

I started to wait a year or two before I try them, that usually means they a) they got most bugfixes, b) additional content and c) they are on sale.

Because there's a good experience buried under a mountain of extremely bad decisions. If the games lacked potential people wouldn't care.

Mine works fine without mods on the next-gen update. It's looking much better than before on my widescreen monitor. I used to need mods to make it work in 21:9 and unlocked framerate, and now it's all supported by the stock game so I'm pleased with it.

I did have a crash to desktop bug until I disabled the Weapon Debris graphics setting though. That was my one lame hassle that happened with it.
