30 euro for a dlc either it's as big as hos and blood and wine combined or you are getting fucked goyims that's half the price of the game.

 

[Herumor]

Or I just pirate it.

 

[KVVRR]

They're putting in on stores already? I thought this thing wasn't coming until christmas or something.

 

[Clockwork Knight]

I don't see it in the EN store. But it's their own store so there's no downside to putting a preorder up early since they can benefit from as much of the post-Edgerunners hype as they can.

That's unfair, V only shaves the side of her head.

35 bucks? what the fuck
it better genuinely be half the lenght of the base game for that pricetag

oh, are you poor?

I've seen speculation that CDPR might change tracks with the expansion and release it relatively soon after the announcement, like a month or so. Take it with a grain of salt, but I think it'd be rather overconfident of them to pitch their expansion against Starfield come autumn.

Hah, "leaked." The Codex needs a "press X to doubt" button, more likely just viral PR ahead of their announcement.

I've got the money to buy it (and also the third world country discount) it's just baffling to see any DLC priced so high. How much was Blood and Wine on launch?

It's not an algorithm thing. It's shilling.

I guess since I'm subbed to @ed's channel and I've been watching a lot of CP2077 youtube vids the past week

Imagine paying for this trashfire.

It actually isn't. It's a fine rpg. Not great - story is what makes an rpg great. It's one of the better AAA games I've played since getting a PS5.

I missed the part where CP2077 made you butthurt, care to explain?

In Cyberpunk 2077 only memorable thing is history how CDP sold their souls to Blackrock Satan. The rest is only a dappled, inconsistent mess with a bunch of a porn mods on a top.

magic the gathering also became shit when the repo market failed in 2019 and the politburo took over, i wouldn't be surprised if they fucked up 2077's development too

It happened on late stage, I believe. But DLC will be made from basics...

Thats a way to eject yourself from the convo.

it's better to be ambitious and fail than be mediocre and succeed. this is even more true because at least CDPR released mod tools, so all they would need is to outline the basic story beats and modders could finish 2077 just like all the other broken CRPGs. shit, Tyranny and Numenera are at best 66% complete too, but without modding tools, nobody can complete the cut content. at least with 2077 it's pretty clear what needs to be added back to the game (wanted system, trains, missing skill tree, etc.)

The disappointment, the lies, the lifeless open world, being one of the few games that got delisted from Sony's marketplace for the bullshit the devs pulled, and how easily all of that was forgotten once idiots got some anime shit thrown their way.

Nothing significant about the game has fundamentally improved since the release - the story still remains the same, I still don't give a fuck about Jackie or his girlfriend or his mom, or any of the so-called life paths because ultimately none of them mattered. I didn't get involved enough, they didn't provide enough time with any of them for the player character to give a fuck about. No, seeing a reel of shit being done in the game without actually doing it yourself doesn't count. Fucking Bioware managed to do origins better with DA:O back in 2009, but CDPR just had you some pointless shit shown at the start of the game, which maybe lasted 15-20 minutes at most and for the rest of the game it quite literally didn't matter. You got the occasional dialogue option remarking on something from your chosen life path, but ultimately every singe character had the same personality, that of a street kid.

I won't deny the game has some gorgeous visuals from time to time, but even that's wasted when you can barely experience any of it truly - it's just like a postcard with a pretty picture on it, it might be nice, but it's just a postcard and away it goes to the pile or some forgotten corner of the house.

What I find the worst offense about this game is that for all it's a cyberpunk game, you can barely get any proper cybernetics for yourself - sure, you get 3 or was it 4 types of arms that you can interchange, but that's it, everything else just falls into some slots, boosting your stats or whatever. Fuckers didn't bother exploring anything about cybernetics. About the only thing from the game that genuinely pulled me in was the whole AIs behind the Blackwall pulling the strings, Alt's offer to take you on a ride as a part of her to whatever lies beyond. That was the only mystery of the game, the only part where I felt a sense of awe and wonder and actually still remember about the game. The rest? Absolutely forgettable.

Cyberpunk 2077 is underdeveloped in every aspect. The city is empty, NPC don't react, most of the abilities are useless, quest are underdone and limited to logs, collecting cars is pointless, the music is awful noise, and estetique is mix of edge, political correctness and dyed hairs. But who cares, when your gigantic marketing operation has broken minds of the masses, which will be defend you and your game to the grave? I remember correctly when first time I have seen that clearly - when they changed the style from Blade Runner to neone; minions jumped to unbelievers thoarts, ready to rip. CDP proved a very sad thing - when you have a majority, rest just adapt.
