Will release in 2028 and be playable in 2029
Want to know why gaming doesn’t feel fun anymore? It’s 60% the issues brought up by the commenters here.
The other 40% is how gamers are all extremely negative and it’s only been a downward trend. This is now the THIRD thread I’ve seen today about something I’ve been hyped about, and not a single one has had a positive comment. It’s all either “It’s going to be a corporate shitshow” or “You’re a bad person for even liking a game made by X company”.
And hey, the companies did it to themselves, but fuck I’m tired of the constant negativity. I’m excited for this! I don’t care! I loved the entirety of the Witcher 3, CP2077’s release was a shitshow but they more than made up for it afterwards with a stream of first fixes and then just free improvements, not to mention Phantom Liberty and now it’s like, my #2 favorite game ever. And I have a DRM free copy so I can keep it forever! I have no reason to doubt them. Sure it may be late. I don’t care. I’ll probably still love it.
I’m not going to go preorder it, or by the swag, or froth at the mouth like marketers want, but goddamn everyone is so freaking negative all the time.
Cue the standard Lemmy comments of “Did you know CDPR did X 8 years ago and you should never give them a penny” and “There was a moment in their game that didn’t land well so we should boycot it” or “it’ll be delayed so the entire studio sucks”
What a bizarre comment. You know what CDPR did, why come here and whine about people being negative?
everyone is so freaking negative all the time
No, they’re not. You’re just unreasonable. People talk about how much they love video games all the time. When companies release good games, they celebrate and praise them; when CDPR lies and releases buggy messes, they rightfully ridicule them.
If it upsets you, email CDPR.
I know what CDPR did and they made up for it, which is a nuance most commenters don’t understand when it’s way easier to jump on the bandwagon of hating studios.
Why did I come here? This post crossed my feed, same as you I’m guessing. Why did I comment? Because I was excited to talk to people and all I saw were gripes, so I commented.
When companies release good games, they celebrate and praise them
Correct, which is what I was doing. Thankfully you came along to prove my point exactly, that there must be no positivity about games. Comments must be about how horrible all games are, and there may be no positive mentions about games! Otherwise you will absolutely get people commenting angrily about how you refuse to also be angry with them.
Its a CDPR game so better to get it three years later once the bugs are fixed, at least 50% of the promised features are implemented and the price drops by a half with the DLC included.
So, 2030 at the earlist, then. Got it
As long as they get it right, I’ll wait patiently.
It might take them a couple years after release but they’ll get it pretty good eventually.
As a current console user, this whole non-physical disc option leaves a sour taste. I’m not on board with digital-licenced-only options especially if buying at full price, Generally I’d be super keen (I bought/sold/rebought W3) cant see myself getting excited about this on any platform.
CDPR has a stake in GOG, all of their games are available DRM free there. I know it’s not your preferred device, but your gripe is with Sony/Microsoft/Nintendo, not CDPR.
Your decision to lock in on a platform that forces their users to rent their games doesn’t mean every platform is equally shit. There’s no reason to assume this won’t be released on gog with the same drm-free access all of their other games have been.
