As someone who doesn’t game too much, it’s been incredible to watch this particular game go through the ups and downs of immense hype, a disappointing launch, and finally this redemption arc it’s been on. I don’t feel like that happens very often.
I can't think of a single other game that has redeemed itself nearly as well. The dev's over promised in the beginning but they sure as shit weren't grifting.
Is Cyberpunk 2077 good now? I remember Cyberpunk fanboys coping with the experience of NMS, saying that maybe in the next update their game will be good too.
The base story is still dogshit, but years of updates have added a fair bunch of missing QOL features, and while Phantom Liberty is lib as fuck, it's a pretty fun story
Firmly in a "pick up both on sale" category for me
Played the 2.1 update recently. While its not as buggy as it once was, I have still encountered game breaking glitches here and there, and unlike NMS, instead of going far above and beyond what they initially promised, it seems like they've just brought it up from MVP to what it should've been at release.
They’re developing a new open world game lol. I’m curious if they learned their lesson and will actually try this time (I know it wasn’t entirely their fault for NMS) or if they’ll just say fuck it we had our fun.
