Information CD Projekt's New Title Is A Cyberpunk 2020 RPG

[Jaesun]

SO basically, CDProject get to do a PnP game, but will turn it into some shitty action game with little or no cRPG elements? ugh.

I honestly wish some Kickstarter team had this licences and would make a proper cRPG with this setting. Hell if this was obsidians KS project I would throw all my money at it.

Anyways, I'll just sit here and wait to hear all the shitty AWESOME action elements this game will have....

Not that you've ever played CP2020 but it's actually pretty "action" heavy as far as combat goes. Fucking poison dart guns in your eyeballs and shit... but please, bitch about another game without any knowledge beyond title and developer like you always do, gotta keep to that shtick.

Well let's look at the facts. Witcher and Witcher 2. QTE Action games with little or no cRPG elements. So based on what they have made so far, what else is there to assume?

I have actually played the PnP Cyberpunk before also. Again, I'll await further info but I am not expecting any difference at all to my current assumptions.

 

[Menckenstein]

he only way a character can become more damage resistant is to either become better at not being hit

to reflect this gritty all or nothing realism CDP will be implementing a visual feedback system that conveys hitpoints as the amount of attacks you will be able to dodge before your character slips up and takes a single fatal wound when 0 hp is reached

this way you will be able to gain hitpoints and yet remain within the dynamic hardboiled spirit of cyberpunk 2020's setting

Don't give wings to my nightmares. Since they're not answering to a publisher but can't afford financial disaster of being true to the source material there's going to be some give there but I hope it's as close as we've gotten to a 1:1 adaptation.

Fully aware I'm living in a dream world.

Fucking bullshit. You obviously haven't played them. There are no QTEs in Witcher 1. There are about three in total in Witcher 2. You can even MAKE THEM EASIER if you find them so fucking difficult. Jesus Christ, I can understand why Volourn calls so many people here liars.

Also, 'little or no CRPG elements'. Hahahaha.

Fair enough but those were licensed off of shitty fantasy novels and not off of a pnp RPG system, so if they build it, I will come.

I'm sure I'll be edgy-as-fuck-this-blows-fuck-cdpr out the wazoo on the eve of the game's release but for now I'm going to chain myself to Obama's HOPE tree and pray to Crom that what they put forth is the GECK of incline.

I have to disagree. If they go for FNFF, then, ceteris paribus, it would make a bitchin' shooter, Not all RPG's need to be old school, and in this case, not being old school may very well work to their advantage because it would be a better fit to their skillset.

 

[joeydohn]

The only way a character can become more damage resistant is to either become better at not being hit, physically augment their body with muscle (trained or implanted) or cybernetics, or wear armor.

Isn't that just what levelling up abstractly represents?

Fucking bullshit. You obviously haven't played them. There are no QTEs in Witcher 1.

The whole combat system?

 

[sgc_meltdown]

Isn't that just what levelling up abstractly represents?

to be fair the physical augmentation is more of a capped choice that probably closes off other avenues like raising your brians or what have you, as opposed to just gaining hitpoints no matter what during levelup

also might limit other augs like picking dermal sheath is incompatible with camo skin, etc

 

[made]

What so spectacular about FNFF? Surely there must be more to it than "u die if u get hit", because that applies to modern FPS/RPGs like DX:HR as well on the hardest setting.

 

[Menckenstein]

There's like ten thousand incarnations of CP character sheets but when I played they looked like this:

No health regen

 

[made]

No regen in DXHR either, except with an aug irrc.

True. Bear in mind CP2020 came out in like 1991 during the "it's ok you're just unconscious" casual+++ era of pnp

 

[Ion Prothon II]

In worst case they just refactor the ruleset to fit an action game. So it would be like... Deus Ex with more increasing numbers and growing stripes... and more streamlined? My imagination just got division by zero error.

 

[Stabwound]

This is me not giving a fuck.

It might end up being a fun game, but this news is really nothing to jizz over in my opinion.

 

[likaq]

I want C&C, no "you must save the world" story, multiple solutions to quests, dialogue trees with quality writing and little to no filler combat. If they deliver this i will be extremely happy. Sadly, these things are very unlikely to happen.

 

[sgc_meltdown]

CP character sheet

yeahhhh there's no way all those skills are making into this bitch

I think the p&p character dude has been called on to adapt his system for different skill trees
best case scenario a whole bunch of those skills are getting in but they're in tiered perks

not that that's a bad thing of course, I would play sum cyberpunk fps fo shore and CDP will definitely do a better job than DXHR on replayability at least

I just don't see this being openworld hardcore rpg that makes shadowrun kickstarter quiver in fear

"What? ...character sheet like bloodlines? Hahahaha gamers, you think we want to be like troika and rest in peace with good reviews?"

 

[likaq]

One more thing, TB is mandatory for faithful implementation of p&p mechanics, with means CDPR will rape CP2020 just like Beth raped Fallout and Bio raped D&D.

 

[bonescraper]

Or just like Troika raped WoD.

Yeah, very unlikely to happen. Witcher 1 and 2 had no C&Cs, were all about saving the world, no multiple solutions to quests and bad writing.

OH FUCKING WAIT.

 

[sgc_meltdown]

in the interest of full disclosure I was really displeased by it being real time and third person/non-iso

shitty performance and non-open world also did not help

then I got to the sewers

It is true that Troika raped WoD, I never questioned this. And I am Troika fanboy.

Perspective didn't bother me in VTMB, I don't know why people are so obsessed with top-down view outside of games where having that tactical view is actually important. What bothered me is how cheap the entire game felt. Small maps, shitty plot, stereotypical characters (so, this malk only talks gibberish and this toreador is a stripper that likes poetry geddit?), cloned NPCS, and the list goes on...Still worth playing 7 times, though.

I'm pretty sure they licensed the game for the setting, not the ruleset.

As a BR saying goes, "rape, but don't kill"...

Some kind of troll-fuelled MPD?

So....... the Witcher with GUNS! In Cyberpunk land? Since I am SO fucking burned out on fantasy shit.... will fap cautiously until more info is out.......
