Cyberpunk 2077 Pre-Release Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Curratum]

I hope Keanu was paid out of MSoft's pocket... I can't say I'm happy he's in the game. Smells like an attempt at mass appeal and that never leads to anything good.

2080Ti here I come.

Game has to run on an XBox One, relax. There will be a downgrade so massive, the Witcher 3 downgrade outrage will seem laughable in comparison.

shill money put to good use?

So that trailer is CGI because the in game graphics looked much worse. Other than that, it looks like GTA again and it's clear that this will launch on the next gen consoles.

Maybe it will be XBone X / PC only :D

The things i'm most curious about from that trailer is that whether the protagonist's friend's death a unavoidable event or decided by your choices during the mission they show in the previous demo.

Because back when they release the 48 minutes demo, they make that character sounds like a important companion(I think they even says you can romance him), and if your decision can leads to a companion's death in the early game I'd say it's a big incline.

Im a simple man, I see Keanu reeves I buy

...dude, it's Keanu fucking Reeves. Do you have a cold rock for a heart?

 

[Quillon]

Did that trailer spoiled a possibility(and some more things) on the penultimate mission in the game?

 

[Kem0sabe]

Keanu is actually leading a cyberpunk life, he builds custom performance bikes using VR and his dating a tranny.

Reeves is prolly the second worst globally famous actor, right after Arnold.

 

[jf8350143]

All they need to do is announce that you can romance Keanu in the game and wait for the sales to go even more nuts.

According to the steam page it's not an RPG but an action-adventure. CD Projekt admit it themselves.

 

[Dodo1610]

Was this trailer even in engine, because it looks pre rendered to me?

Good thing this is a fucking videogame, then. He doesn't have to act, he just has to stand there and look cool for the mocap. Which he's exceptional at, have you seen the training he does for the John Wick movies? Of course they're fucking awful movies, but the action scenes are amazing.

So is Witcher 3, what of it?

It was CGI.

It was CGI.

I'd say it was in-engine, but with heavy post-work done on the in-engine cutscene.

The one with Keanu is pre rendered.

The one with launch date is in game, but on a monster computer and looks better than it will be when we get the game.

Story and presentation looks great, but that's not a surprise. April date just as I expected, we'll see if it's delayed. Expect a new console upgraded version later I bet. Keanu Reeves seemed half-genuine, which is abnormal, but still a cheesy thing. "We're big time now! Mainstream baby! Hire a celebrity!" It was like 2009 all over again.

It's already Steam's Top Seller.

Thanks for posting this, I caught that sale on Borderlands 2 and 2.5 because of it.

 

[markec]

Johnny Mnemonic: The Video Game looks quite nice.

Interesting to see that while first part was CGI trailer it has shown some proper reactivity.
I feared they when they started to target GTA crowd they would scale down reactivity due to share technicality of those but it seems like i was wrong.

The second real time stuff was fucking insane. It is just like watching the best cyberpunk movie you wished to watch. Their art designers are god tier.

Out of all the celebrities to pick I'm fine with Keanu. He starred in cyberpunk films and is a bonafide rockstar so he can pull off the Silverhand look. Has me wondering about that Lady Gaga rumor if they're throwing money around on celebrities like Keanu.

They got Dance for Emhyr when they were up to their heads with debts to finance TW3.
TW3 sold 20mln+ at this point + who knows how many expansions.

At 20mln sales you are looking at around billion dollars revenue (obviously it is a bit lower due to sales etc but still)
Which means they have enough money to get some top star for every companion if they wish it.
They were rumors about them hiring Lady Gaga to do some work for them and lead music designer hinted that they might hire Daft Punk to make stuff for them.

Either way if they had to go for star power Reeves is the best fit anyone can imagine.
