dystopias are a cringe anyhow

there is a reason why the "wow cool guns" meme happens and it's because dystopic themes are generally myopic and uninteresting unless executed tremendously well and you share the same core political values as the author

and they absolutely don't belong in video games

Please stop posting. Not kidding. You shit up these threads w/ your opinions most of which are pretty awful. I have to filter through your shit tier hot-takes to get to actually interesting posts. Thanks <3

Just because there are better looking games doesn't mean this is not looking good. It does. I don't remember anybody saying that this is the best looking game ever.

It looks "good" with too much caveats for most expensive game production in history.

Pretty sure they even changed from third person to first person view only because nvidia needs to sell their new overpriced RTX line so you can ogle yourself in the mirrors.
Think they're even bigger sellouts than Bioware. They at least put out a game with the overhyped marketing.
CDPR managed to put out a techdemo for nvidia.( a barely functioning one)
This might be the most retarded theory on the Codex.

Not going to lie, I was gonna shit all over this game's writing as generic, peasant-tier cyberpunk, but a few of the main missions actually got me thinking.

Of course, I was high as shit, so take that as you will.

GOTY if on drugs.

Almost as dumb as thinking that Intel would pay a company that makes a C++ compiler to create a CPUID check that would then reduce performance on non-Intel CPUs in programs compiled with said compiler.

You're the one who's retarded.

Is so sad see some codexer defend this disaster of a game. And again this thread should be in general gaming as Cyberpunk is NOT an rpg.

It just honestly hasn't been a disaster for me and (evidently) for a substantial number of others (probably a bare majority, like 7/10 or so). It's just the PS4 thing that's objectively a real disaster; but why should I care about such peasants and their woes? ;)

For example, re. quasi-cinematic, scripted sequences. Some critics find that sort of thing abominable and not in the spirit of RPGs, but to me, if they're well done (as they are in this game), the fact that sometimes events carry you along in the game actually mimics what happens in life sometimes. You don't always have control. Even if it's a kludge to get the character from A to B in the story, that isn't necessarily a problem, or some great sin on the part of the developers.

And so on and so forth. A lot of it is just down to personal taste, not really anything objective (not like, e.g. pointing out the bugs, or like pointing out that progression in older games is often better done than in modern games, or something like that).

Johny Silverhand is the most cringe character in videogames I've seen so far.


Can't tell if playing well or useless AI.


Let me tell you two things:

1. Johnny is OP by design because he has 50% bigger cock than V.

2. The AI is dumb as shit and I haven't found behaviors more advanced than hide behind cover with the ocassional hacks and 'nades.

I started out hating Keanu Reeves because he was just so damn edgy all the time. But at least the character is consistent about it enough to where I can almost maybe respect him.

Even if he is an ideologically confused super terrorist.

Hoo boy, I am not having fun bros. I'd much rather replay Deus Ex, Human Revolution, GTA 5 or Sleeping Dogs.


Hey guys, here is the most expensive game in history. Also more expensive than any form of entertainment, Hollywood movies included.

I assume 90% of that amount was spent on reviews, there is no other explanation.
