I still don't understand the hate it got. I played it on release and loved it, now they just shaped it into a fantastic game.
You got amnesia or something? That game at release was a buggy, incomplete mess. Features originally promised and advertised were just missing. To this day, some of those features are still missing. Did you play through act 1 and somehow thought that a cutscene summarizing your growth with Jackie was the intended experience? The whole game reeked of rushed release. Hell, they still have an empty spot in the hills where the casino's supposed to be.
I did not experience the bugs that people on console were complaining about and I didn't overhype the game like the community did. I expected what was released and did not encounter bugs. Not everyone had the same experience.
Sure, if your expectation was for a shortened, shittier game due to a rushed development cycle, even compared to contemporaries at the time. Most people don't expect a shotty product. I mean, I don't even know how you can excuse the low effort police spawns around you. That's not even hype..... That's clearly low effort, unexcused disappointment.
Refer to where I said I didn't experience that stuff. I love how defensive you are getting over something that is completely subjective. Kinda seems like you are part of the community that overhypes everything then disappoints yourself and blames others. Also see: The Witcher 3 release :)
How do you play through cyberpunk and never spawn the cops by doing a 180? It's like you didn't even play the game. But whatever. You're the bottom 1% when it comes to expectations. Literally eating shit and can't taste the waste. But blaming others? There's no wrong in blaming CDPR for cb2077's release. They fucked up and every metric agrees with that. You'd be a fool to argue otherwise.
200 hours in the game but that's a nice attempt for ya. Once again, subjective, unrealistic expectations. Probably played it on PS3 and expected modern day performance.
is it really unrealistic that police spawns in a reasonable way and not....anywhere out of your line of sight? Your expectations have to be shit-tier low for that to be acceptable. Also, no. I finished the game on release on PC. It was a B- experience at best. The shortcuts they took were so obvious you'd have to be retarded to not see them. Maybe you just don't think about these things and your expectations are so low, you can be fed shit and still tell people it's fine. It's okay if that's you, just don't tell anyone else your opinion's worth reading.
B- is what I expected. That's above average expectations you donkey. Fucking clown.
triple A studio with 8 years to work getting B-? That's not expected. If it were the expectation, CDPR stock wouldn't have dropped half its value after release. It's currently sitting at 1/6 of all time high (before cb2077's release). Nobody agrees with you, buddy. Either something's in your water or you were dropped as a baby as hard as CDPR dropped cb2077.
Imagine not understanding the laws of averages and the meaning of subjective lmao. I repeat, fucking clown.
It's okay, society needs people like you to consume the shit no one else finds acceptable. Thank you for your service
Valid attempt bud, but I will not take anyone seriously that can't comprehend basic laws.
