I waited years for cyberpunks launch. When it came out and I booted it up on my PC after days of internet and hardware issues, I loved it. When I got into night city I was amazed. A discovered a few visual bugs that were funny, to be expected.
But as I played the game more and got halfway through, the amount of bugs not only ruined the immersion, but ruined the taste of the game in my mouth. To top it off there is a serious lack of rpg elements. Not only compared to other titles but even their own previous ones. The perk system is a flat damage boosting one with next to no interaction between them. No armour skills to build around with % based mechanics and such alongside unique weapons. Majority of the buildings cannot be entered yet have doors. There is next to nothing to actually do outside of the story. Once you've beaten all the ncpd missions and cleared the enemies out, what's left to shoot and test things on? Glitchy police AI? No preparation when it comes to fights like a rpg would. Just aim at crit spots and win.
What we were shown from their trailers gave off the impression that we could do so much in the city whether that be shopping, upgrading cars and weapons (one you can't do, one is as basic as it comes), apartments, eating out, taking drugs and dancing. The choice we are given in the game means very little. Your life path means absolutely nothing as all V's turn into the same personality and your lifepath has no real severe in game benefit and roleplay ability. Then there's the cut content but what can you do.
The story, setting and scale is absolutely stunning. But the implementation of it all is terrible. Not the idea of the next generation of open world gaming I had in my mind when simpler things are in other games. I hope it improves and the company makes a comeback with its relations to the community.
Glad they delayed the next gen update. No reason to push that out. Allows them to work on it and more people to upgrade.
that wasn't an apology that was just damage control, shady projekt red is slowly falling apart from the inside with all these class action law suits and reviewers tearing strips off them now they are desperately clinging onto the tiny fan base they have left now. they knew the game wasn't ready before launch and they used clever marketing to make it appear flawless and polished before launch.. they restricted youtubers to only using B roll footage that the company had filmed as to only show the game in a positive light and hide all the problems it had and as if that wasn't already a huge cash grab they promised features that were pulled from the game and never once spoke about the missing content. they told their investors the game was good to go when it wasn't, they told us the game had gone gold before launch meaning it was ready and good to go.. Shady projekt red lied to us every chance they had. they are a bunch of shady liars and I'm glad they are in the mess they are in..
What you say is so true to the point Blunty. You just don't cover behind the fabricated excuses like "bugs ruined the game" like AngryJoe… They all sound like if its not the bugs game is just fine but never mention cut content like the subway cutscenes in trailers, non living braindead residents of so called Night City. CDPR abused our trust and lied to us blatantly. This is such a shame… Subbed!
Dude…of course, everything is about money.. that includes CDPR, (obviously) Blunty, and everyone else…
Trust is (nearly) gone..now its just hope that remains.
Learn and move on.
22:12 can become a meme for other purposes lol
They didn't see the issues on base consoles when they tested? What a load of shit, i played for 10 mins and had about 10 bugs. And they pretend like without bugs the game is perfect and not missing loads of features.
This style of Blunty reacts really works.
My favorite part of cyberpunk is how quickly every background falls into the same exact storyline
I've not refunded on pc but I did uninstall after about 15hrs play time. I get random hard crashing where I have to hard reboot my pc. That coupled with the complete and utter random jank that seems to happen very often and battling with game settings it's just made it too hard to keep playing.
The game simply is not in a decent state and it certainly is not the game we were being sold. Just seems so empty and shallow. Not an RPG, not a particularly good shooter, sluggish driving controls which leaves a fairly nice looking game…when the textures and asset's load in correctly.
All this couple with the GPU fiasco just makes me hate pc gaming right now.
Bluntypunk 2077
They knew the game was going to run slow. Theres the option for Vsync lock at 15 and 20fps on PC. Who is going to play the game at 15 or 20fps???
12:38 they were tryin to pull a fallout 76 closed beta preview lol.. which that didn't even last for 2 hours a day for 3 days befor they desided to lock it up befor the opening launch
They really fucked up the launch of this game. I was super interested, and I am actually thankful I was broke when it came out so I couldn't pre-order it. I'll buy it in a year or two when it's 75% cheaper and on a Steam sale. Oh, and it works
No Man's Sky 2: 2077
Great video and love you honestly… So much better than angry Joes recent video who still wants to kiss ass this company!
To be fair to the developers, they were crunching for large portions of development. Crunch results in exhausted devs, which results in buggy games, and it was the fault of CDPR leadership that it was required. Many great games were in this state a month or two prior to release – that's why they weren't released. If the board had stuck with "When it's ready" (which they certainly should have done), gamers would have been bitching about yet more delays, but all would have been forgiven when a finished (if about as buggy as Witcher 3 was when it came out) game was finally released.
It takes years to build a reputation, but only one bad launch to burn it to the ground.
It's sad seeing the work of talented people being shadowed by all the mismanagement.
I will just wait another year before I buy it.
Thanks CDR for giving us a reason for more Blunty content
Lol when you are talking about streaming data on old gen consoles, from hd to cpu, what little middle man are you referring to which is not there in next gen consoles? Sounds like you don't really know what you are on about to me…
I see many games as just storefronts with a mediocre waiting loop (also knows as "game") for next weeks store offers.
And most youtubers are just their salesmen to generate a short lived sales hype.
Why do you think we are called consumers? Shut up and consume like a good boy/girl.
p.s. I actually like Cyberpunk mostly because it runs good on my system but yeah it's very obvious this is not finished and just a placeholder for GTA online… I mean cyberpunk online of course… don't forget the online store which will work 100% from day 1 of release unlike the accompanying multiplayer. 😉
Aside from the bugs, I was very disappointed with the length of the main story. The whole pacing is off. If playing from an immersion point of view, there is a huge urgency to address the fact that you are dying and this compelled me to continue with main story missions, hoping there would be a time where there was a bit of a plateau, where you were free to do side missions etc. While I did do a bunch of side stuff, I was only level 24 when I reached the end of the game. Really immersion breaking. Not to mention how bad driving is in the game and perks that are plain broken (knife throwing etc), the horrible lack of choice options (things which havw actual consequences) throughout the story, a total lack of factions, gangs or aliances you could join.. I could go on and on. The AI like mentioned was another one. The world is actually nice until you look on top of buildings lol. They had a lot of potential there, but in the end its a completely hollow experience. They needed another 2 years of development to make this game have any sort of depth. I am totally not surprised. Greed is what drives the game industry, not making the best possible games. Most of the budget goes into marketing always. What does that tell you? People need to wake up and stop buying shitty products. Its just supply and demand. If people keep buying it, they will keep supplying it. End of rant.
I really don't care what cdpr say, you cannot lie and deceive us to buy your product. And be like, so sorry please trust us again. Well, you can, but I won't be supporting your company in the future. Especially since the games industry is booming right now everyone wants a peice of the pie, therefore a bigger influx of games will becoming. So practises like this will bury the developer.
What people expected them to say? "Sorry, we did all of this on purpose and manipulated market. Pls sue us and file class action, thx"?
Why do I hear the guy talking in that oil-company-sorry-guy from South Park voice?
We're sorry…
I respect your brutal honesty. Thank you for transparency
All of this is fine, but people don’t learn from History. Origin destroyed itself back in the day by always going high end without the market to sustain the successful games and some failures. A warning for CDPR.
Scammers while they make fake promises and take the money from preorders to party with keanu reeves it was ok and now apologise?GO BROKE LIARS SHUT IT DOWN.
your reaction to video was just like me
The Switch version of Minecraft also has that greyed out Raytracing option oddly enough. I doubt it will be implemented but I did encounter it
CDPR has so much good faith in the PC community that we honestly think they’ll make things right.
I just like how rockstar games are doing it. Keep it quite until the game is almost finished and nicely polished. Then announce it.
Worked great for GTA5, not so great for RDR2 but still worlds better than CDPR
Man, that meme about this CDPR guy getting older/deader with every game release was spot on.

This is No Man's Sky all over again. They found themselves in the exact same situation of biting way more than they can chew, took the exact same measures to ship the game anyway (first by cutting content, then by grossly overlooking QC issues), and are now caught up in the exact same shitstorm of their own making.
Now Hello Games managed to regain a little bit of trust by keeping their head to the grindstone and essentially shipping an entire new game, and unless CDPR does exactly that, well they'll end up "Bethesda'd", whereby no one will ever expect anything good to come out of that studio ever again.
CDPR should have just released it on PC since that what thet made it for mostly. then rolled out to other platforms later.
End of the line moral, just find a gamemaster online and play cyberpunk 2020 (the tabletop rpg). Much better and way more polished if your GM knows what they are doing.
Just saying if you can charge people $89.95 Aud and release a game I would expect a finished product. I played on PC and although I didn’t have many “technical” issues, when the main characters started talking without their mouths open / cars falling from the sky exploding I knew how exciting the rest of this experience was going to be… I can’t refund on steam – I refused to play it anymore and I’ve lost $89.95. So unless CD project red can refund me this (as steam says I am no longer within the guidelines of a refund going over 2 hours) I couldn’t give two fucks about any apology whilst I wait 6 months for them to “fix” the console version and then probably look at PC.
CD projekt instantly plays tell me lies tell me Sweet Little Lies 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🤟
Big news from CD projekt equals= shitty apology for poor decision making
leading to more players asking for refunds
People just don't want to admit it CD projekt Red leadership just wants to blame covid-19 they want to blame last gen but they do not want to blame themselves for their failure!
Even if cyberpunk was just for Xbox x series PC and PlayStation 5 we would have the same result for the game same issues and the same lame-ass apology.
After all I have talked to people from PlayStation 5 PC the new Xbox and they all report the same issues that last gen goes through on cyberpunk. the issues are not exclusive to last-gen!
Even that leader from CD projekt apology video even said that it was a bad decision releasing the game
So many people besides him are ready to blame other stuff for the failure they don't realize if it was that simple they wouldn't be under investigation for they wouldn't be under investigation with the consumer agency they wouldn't be facing multiple class lawsuits if it was just because the last gen lol
I still can't get over the fact that somebody on Instagram told me that just because the game is popular on PC that CD projekt doesn't need to make the game content for consoles because consoles are peasants. Even though people on PC reported the same issues that are happening on consoles lol
Stupidity in the gaming communities are just beyond astounding.
Just because I said that the game failed because of poor decision-making he try to tell me that I never played cyberpunk even though my Instagram I have my video of me doing Don't Fear the Reaper on hard mode I have pictures of showing that I have over 100 hours of gameplay that I made two different characters male and female and I even got Platinum for cyberpunk but yet again this person tries to act like a f**** middle schooler and say oh you never play the game you're just a pathetic loser. Even though this person probably old enough to be my older brother
Even if the game was a PC exclusive you would still have the same outcome of what's happening right now in cyberpunk
They've burned a ton of the good will they'd built up from their Witcher years on this debacle. A limp apology knowing they deliberately misled consumers is not going to fix this. Support and ongoing improvement might redeem some of this, similar to No Man's Sky, but it's a long road ahead.
Personally I've shelved Cyberpunk without getting very far through it, and I doubt I'm going to look at it again until 2022, assuming they do make the effort to improve it.
blunty became grumpy 🙂 cyberpunk will be great in 2022, its just rushed… internet just uses it 🙂 miss those old days with old game reviews ! 😉
When he said “don’t blame the team” I think he meant that management are the ones who should be criticised and not the team who actually made the game.
One year later for Next gen? No one cares about the game 8 month later,so fuck them and their next gen update. For real love the game, but cdp are depressing as fuck.
'Dispite good reviews on PC'….they think the reviews are the measurement of quality??
Why cant they just fix the game, then apologize.
great friend !!
