Great stuff. You can just see around the world the lawyers advising CEO's of any company "oh, just blame Covid".

[@scarlet8078]

Clearly, CDPR was not getting legal advice, or they never would have told investors & the public, "the game runs surprisingly well on last-gen consoles..." just weeks before the disastrous release. Any corporate attorney would've advised not releasing the game on last-gen consoles; they could've done a staggered launch or done an open beta or "early access" like many large games do now. In that situation, players know what they are getting into & they're willing to tolerate bugs in order to help the dev make a polished game. If you look at the example of Larian with Baldur's Gate 3, they are still charging $60 for the game in Early Access & it's one of the best selling games on Steam. From both a financial & a legal standpoint, that is the best path

Sony delisted the game just because when they agreed to no questions asked full refunds they had no choice because had they not, a metrick fuckton of people would have bought it, played for however they wanted and gottwn a refund.. the bugs and glitches had nothing to do with it.. so yeah its about money and also bit about PR because cdpr tried to scapegoat them..

Its just $hit. If you design a story, you better know how you want it to end! Everything else has a very high chance to lead to another Mass Defect 3 disaster! We all got lucky Breaking Bad ended so well. Because up until the last Season, some major scenes didn't even have a connection. They just threw $hit into the movie, without knowing what to do with it. Breaking Bad could have ended in a disaster. Completely ruining the show. That is something that should be avoided, so write a F. ending to your god damn story first!

I'd like to coin the term "Character-Playing Game" for games like Cyberpunk, the Witcher series, and Fallout 4 where you are playing a predetermined character and have minor leeway in molding and shaping their personality and principles.

"Action game with RPG elements including customizable skill trees"

Sony found a perfectly timed scapegoat to show that they were more "pro consumer" at the time of the PS5 release to try to convince people to choose their platform.

[@TheNexDude]

One thing I liked is that it did felt like V's adventure MY adventure. I'm glad they didn't go with this "the player is the most important character to change the world" story as whole it is a personalized adventure you're just as important as ever other character you meet you're not the chosen one.

[@gulskjegglive]

Unfortunately, I will have to disagree with Kiloton on this issue. Ultimately, Cyberpunk 2077 is 25% of the game we were promised, so even if Seedy PR restores cut content, it will still only be 50% of what we we paid for. In 5 years we will be talking about Cyberpunk 2077 the same way we talk about Anthem and Fallout 76; a fatally flawed catastrophe. Time will not be kind to Cyberpunk 2077 either, because while games like Fallout 4 and Skyrim were buggy, they do have a strong foundation upon which greatness can be built upon. Conversely, Cyberpunk 2077 is a ridiculous hodge-podge of poorly implemented, half-assed concepts that are more of an incomprehensible jumble that a rewarding skill tree. One primary flaw being a failure to include *proper* weapons crafting & customization, which is crucial to immersion, among other things. I should note that I shilled extremely hard for Cyberpunk 2077 before launch, but after about 2 hours of play, I discovered the game is a hopeless, bug-ridden dumpster fire that in no way resembled the trailers. In the end, Cyberpunk 2077 should have easily eclipsed every game before it, but in reality, it is blown out of the fucking water by GTA 5 from 2013, and even Deus Ex Human Revolution, a 10 year old release. A free "No Man's Sky" rework would be the beginning of the redemption arc, not the end if it. tl;dr seedy pr can suck my greasy c*ck

[@2cents4u]

I agree 100%. The company bold-faced lied to all of the Gaers while making exclusive merch for companies that reviewed and lied for them through disgusting marketing. Fuck them. 21K is playing on PC (probably a high-end), so he can make excuses for the game because he's playing the best version. I guarantee if he was playing on the base consoles soley, his message would be much, much different. Most can't afford a high-end PC and Millions can't even find a PS5 or XBOX Series X, so the real criticism is coming from those people suffering through it all.

[@gulskjegglive]

@@2cents4u A key point you bring up is, people are suffering. Console players most of all. Since when is misery an acceptable aspect of game development?

[@2cents4u]

@@gulskjegglive then they tied that misery to Rating Scores of the game and they knew the game would be a failure on release so many of those hard working devs got nothing because the ratings of the game fell to the toilet. CDPR is right up there with the rest of the trash industry, cause they're not an underdog anymore with all that cash they've been getting over the years and making these decisions. Prove they want to play the same games the big dogs are playing with the respect of the consumers and gamers alike. Any company that treat the consumer this way, should fail hard for disrespecting the people that made their companies "great".

[@scarlet8078]

Yes, no doubt Mike Pondsmith is the real MVP of this game. For me the game wasn't awful, it just wasn't the RPG game I wanted. I felt that it was very linear & I couldn't "play how u want in a cyberpunk future" like CDPR promised. The only option u get is to play as tough-guy Vee with edgy bro Johnny in his head. My brother liked the game more than me, prob bc it's quite a masculine experience

[@GuvernorDave]

I also keenly felt the absence of semi-automatic rifles. They are my go-to in every shooter and cyberpunk lacking them was pretty frustrating. I spent the whole game expecting to find one eventually but nope.

[@thelastminuteman7513]

Yes some DMRs would be nice. Although I've been using one of the tech rifles, i forget what it's called it's an Iconic one you get from the mine shaft you go to after helping Panem get her truck back. It's basically a high damge marksman rifle. Looks like a magnetic railgun though. Anyway the rifles should've been proper select fire as well.

[@scarlet8078]

Yes, my brother (who's in the military & plays tons of shooters) said the same thing. He always jokes that games with the best guns are made by American or Russian devs or they hire military consultants. I'm far from an expert but even I got the sense that this is the first shooter being made by a Euro team who's been focused on fantasy games in the past

I think you're bang on the money with your Sony store withdrawal theory. With regards to other motives they may have. I believe it's because Sony's own games usually sweep up the shill game awards. They saw this game as a threat contender, so have gone out their way to cause more hatred towards it. They want to ensure their title (like God Of War Ragnarok) gets an easier win this year.

[@main_stream_media_is_a_joke]

Homeworld imo hit it out of the park w.r.t almost all aspects of the game...Story, lore, graphic, vo, music, levels, ui etc. Unfortunately that game came out in an era where the game companies actually cared and treated their game as a product that they actually cared for.....not the live service bs that we have today. Thankfully gearbox at least managed NOT to screw it up with the remaster. Dude you really need to make a video highlighting some of the best games and practices that were followed up until early 2010. Come to think of it, the old games played at high resolution with all effects maxed out, still makes me happy for this hobby of ours. Modern AAA games can go screw themselves.

[@AkiSan0]

homeworld 2 was far better for me at least in the multiplayer aspect ( loved the normal mode but also the SW mod :D). i personally would say that i liked HW2 on more things than HW1. on the other topic of masterpieces. i still play BL1. that is by far THE most rewarding game if you want to get the feeling of earning a loot drop. farming the armory over and over just in the hope of the elusive pearl or even rarer legendary eridian (and yes, im at like 26 pearls und just 1 of each of the eridians, which means i was lucky to not get a dupe..). borderlands 2 started to soften this reward feeling. now on shitagendapushing3, the loot is so common, you start NOT picking up legendaries, just bc they are not even close to worth your time.

I really don’t understand how you felt anything for Jackie when you spend 15, 20 minutes tops with him. For most people you need to spend a lot more time with a character to feel any kind of connection with them and you definitely need to spend a lot more than 20 minutes with them to feel something when they die. I feel like that with a lot of the characters in cyberpunk so no you don’t have a black soul if you don’t care about the characters, nice strawman by the way argument. The game has to make you feel something for them and cyberpunk does a horrible job at that so how can a story be good if doesn’t make you feel anything? Also how can the game expect you to feel something for the character you have spent 15 minutes and is killed instantly? These are all signs of bad story telling

[@AkiSan0]

bc he was well written, funny and interesting. but yeah, you are right. bad story telling. killing of a "friend" to make your "antagonist" more evil just means one thing, you suck at making your antagonist evil. why didnt they show us parts of takamuras story? orphaned childs rummaging in the oil fields for food or being used as child soldiers by arasaka. THAT would have make us hate them. killing jackie did only one thing for me - hating the main story. im about to start the heist on my second play through and i just dont want to. maybe if there more content and the game is polished i can overlook it.

I don’t care how well written a character is when you only spend 15 minutes with him. You can’t care for someone or develop a connection with them when you only spent 15 minutes with them.

In a few years it will have all blown over, CP2077 multiplayer might be ridiculous and just maybe CD Projekt will have won back a few hearts, Hello Games style.......and make a shit ton of money. The game will be bought again even on old gen. CDPR is taking cues from Rockstar. Playing the long game. Keep the game in the news. What are sales numbers like after 1.1 ? Performance is persuasive enough for a next gen buy. Game has been in the news. This is how it goes. This is how the games live longer.

Perhaps if the guys at the top actually put money where their mouth is things would be different but they weren't. No way they could have delayed the game again especially after spending millions on marketting. But that shows that money talks. But man, the game is still fun in places.

oh man... it's 2:40am .. bout to jump in bed 😂

[@tincangamer2188]

In 2020, I completed The Witcher 3, Red Dead Redemption 2, God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn, Control, Final Fantasy 7 Remake, and CyberPunk 2077. CyberPunk is the only game I've played in 2021.

[@chainglass]

Great work! Best, most balanced, coverage I have seen so far, and am likely to see, bar none.

[@AvokadoJoe]

I keep saying it and i'll say it again... You actually mentioned it indirectly, just did not connect the dots. By saying (for the consoles anyway) "It runs better than expected", they were not lying. Even in its state at the time, the game could still have been running better than they expected. I don't mean to excuse them by this, but i don't understand how everybody can claim they lied, when technically, they did not. The issue is, that there is no process for the consumer to assure a game is actually functunional before hitting the digital shelves. Thanks for this extensive review series tho, well done indeed. I was among those who played it on PC with an RX580 and i barely ran into any bugs too. And even if i have, they were just minor issues. Spent over 100 hours with it and i'm planning to return to it in the coming months hoping for some of the issues to be patched up (the police for example).

[@incandenzahal]

What I love about this extensive review is the sense I get of what true gamers (speaking as a gen-x old fart) got out of gaming in their formative years - a complete, albeit flawed experience that tries to push the envelope within the boundaries of not grooming its clientele to accept the shit-milkshake of micro-transactions and other fuckery. It seems like the industry is caught between a rock and a hard place. On one hand you have EA and Ubisoft brainwashing gamers to see spending fifty quid on a game as a logical first step to an ongoing financial drain of play-to-win features and pretty skins on their rifles and on the other hand you get Fallout: The Frontier, where people with good intentions find out that if you pay peanuts, you get monkeys (by monkeys I mean sex-offenders). It’s very refreshing to hear a level-headed and massively critical review that nevertheless praises CDPR for keeping the spirit of pay what you get for alive, even if they screwed the pooch by telling a fistful of blatant lies. It’s also made me very interested in the game, built as it clearly is on narrative and ambition. As a result of your videos I’ve deleted Epic off my computer and I tell my children (I’m an English teacher) to play games that don’t encourage you to rob your parents. Cheers fella.

After this you should never felt for it again: Cyberpunk 2077 is made for auto-aimers with 30 PREMIUM FPS doing macro-transactions for cut content giving out their personal data and that data is being exploited by publishers to inflate their scam and keep people in the loop. Welcome to the brave naive world. Developers of said naive world can't face the facts so they suppress, censor people. Outsource their dirty work to influencers which get high when they receive free merch. Free merch > free speech. Is your mind blown how people fall for same thing every time? It shouldn't be. Because divided, singled out individuals has no chance against organized criminal entity; corporation. Corporation is an approved scam & spy business. Their approval was obtained through manufactured consent. Corporation is not the industry of manufacturing products. Corporation is in the industry of manufacturing consent. As well Corporations [through governments] are harvesting our biometric data on global scale. So they can get to know us far better than we know ourselves, and they not just predict our feelings but also manipulate our feelings and sell us anything they want- Be it a product as a service or politician. CPDR is a corporation. Hardcore corporate defenders please check out "The Corporation", "Surveillance Capitalism", "The century of the self", "Stockholm syndrome", "Milgram Experiment" and "The Secrets of Silicon Valley: What Big Tech Doesn't Want You to Know")

CP2077 = Borderlands. There, I said it, bite me. After hundreds of hours playing CP2077 and the whole of the BL series, I may say that. A bit more advanced, a bit more fleshed out, fun, but it is what it is.

[@barryevans791]

I suspect that the people "drinking the cool aid and saying it is the worst game release" are seeking retribution for the bare faced lies that they have been subjected to, and I actually agree with them. If I gave you a chocolate bar and waited for you to eat it before telling you I wiped my ass with it, you would probably be pissed too.

[@Kommander696]

If they said they were working on the game right up until the last minute...then please tell me CDPR why my Collectors Edition outerbox has an embargo sticker saying ‘do not sell until 25 September 2020’ on it...and that being (at the time) on the site of purchase for that initial release date. The discs would have been made weeks before the 25th as well so its complete utter PR bullshait. Keep this great channel of yours alive and alive long! You’re a legey bruv.

[@tranquilitydove1155]

Fuck yeah! After watching the last two parts I was checking your channel manually everyday. I'm pumped!!

[@Darthvegeta8000]

Sony probably pulled it in response of Cyberpunks refund declarations. I get the impression they didn't communicate with Sony.

[@Pillock25]

I agree, once it went back on the store, Sony stated that it would be under their standard refund policy.

[@killswitch1982]

I think a big contributing factor to the Cyberpunk 2077 pooch-screw was the investors. From the time the Witcher 3 was published to now CDPR became a much larger developer and more investors bought into their company, believing it would be a major profit for them. As the game kept getting pushed back I think their investors put more and more pressure on the CDPR execs to get the game out so they could see a return on their investments. I'm not putting ALL the blame on the investors, but I have no doubts them caring more about their money than the company's reputation and credibility played a major role.

[@RudalPL]

I think the comparisons to Anthem where their respective trailers, in that they where both faked. Other than that I thought this was a very truthful and well put together trilogy.

Really enjoying the game. I know, I'm late to the party. I'm an older female gamer just getting into gaming and this is right up my alley...hmmm...says something about me I guess. Only complaint? Spend a lot of time reading Shards, and that feedback noise while reading makes me insane. Hate it. Have to turn headset down every time. I'm early in the game and barely know what I'm doing but it's been great! Thanks for the thoughtful, honest review.

[@21Kiloton]

Thank you for getting as far as Part 3! Good luck and happy hunting

[@RudalPL]

11 months after this video was published and nothing really got fixed in the game. I really liked the game and was planning a second play through when new content will be added, but now I just gave up. Will I come back to this? Maybe in a few years IF there will be some new content added. I really don't count on any major fixes to the game mechanics and/or systems.

[@Ichy-Sphincta]

Love these vids you do looking forward too when ubi/massive make the next starwars game 🤮💩 and you make a series on that certified trainwreck 🤘

People are going way overboard about the "fake" E3 gameplay thing. It definitely looked like a scripted cut scene, rather than real gameplay, because nobody plays games like that. E3 always been for marketing, not so much for realistic information. I live this coverage of cyberpunk, roll on part 4 !!

[@KatsCorner]

The story I. This game is o. Par with the best game stories ever written. I have to say it is not a kids story at all and many of the side quests provok deep thought. For that say this game is a flawed masterpiece.

[@jamesthomas9619]

I think Sony just saw the shit hitting the fan and wanted to distance themselves from cdpr as much as possible, asap. It was just the smart move

[@trevinsingh9390]

@5:10 this is the sole reason I refunded this game. As a melee katana build, nothing sucks more than getting one shot'd by exploding barrel only to reload the game ps4 speed. The last time it happened during the mission to takeout the snipers and it crashed. Deleted and applied for the refund only to get it 2 weeks later, thankfully. I wish the developers luck because I don't even think the PC crowd is going to perpetually fool themselves into thinking this is a good game unless the modding scene basically finishes the game for them. That actually might be a possibility.

[@dxhelios7902]

You know what is sad. CP2077 for me is the game of the decade. But for CDPR the door is closed now. To my community I say following. It was the promise. Promise not about the game, not about the performance. It was A PROMISE of idealogy. Ideology of fair and trusted relationship between publisher/developer and a player. This ideology, this promise sold the game. CDPR management spit on it, shit on it, burn it alive, while dancing around in KKK masks (I am not crazy journalist and my family and country suffered a lot from Nazis, Soviets etc, so choose other type of masks if you need to). And at game developers Nuremerg trial they said we did not expect that. So... I will take my time to enjoy the game of the decade and then get back to pre-CDPR mindset. It's sad.

[@Death_Lord_Eleressai]

This is just Fallout 4 over again, they stripped out all the RPG elements and just made an open world action FPS. Many of us came to play an RPG, like we were promised for 8 years, based on a famous tabletop RPG system with over 30 years of history. Cyberpunk 2077 is not an RPG at all, it's an open world action game, basically like GTA in the future. It doesn't matter how good aspects of the game may be, those of us who are RPG players, who were expecting an RPG and didn't get one, don't care if it's a good action game. It's not an RPG, so I'm not interested, no sale. Period.

i played through this game twice useing two different PlayStation accounts and found the game pretty good but also had the occasional crash on the ps5 but overall i enjoyed the game and each characters story arc,Judy and her story,going swimming to see Judy's childhood home, rescuing evilan,Panama's side missions and becoming a Aldecado,and trying to figure out a way to stay alive and not have jonny ake over your body..each character in the game was well-conceived and thought out. i enjoyed playing cyberpunk2077

[@whateveryousaygroomer131]

Garbage games that take a few months to make with the same amount of time to polish get raved about such as battlefield, cod, sports games, forzas horizon, all ubisoft games (the ladder are just cheap games but are never polished). But when a game multiples in scale and scope comes and has a texture bug, every screeching cry baby heads to the forums, its actually nice to see it doesn't just happen to BGS games. What's funny about that is BGS games have far less bugs than most games and are vastly superior to 99% of them out there, and people still screech. Cyberpunk should be praised for being 10 times the size of all cod, BF, Forza Horizon, and ubisoft games. For the first game of this type they made a damn good one. Can't wait for the second one.

[@peterkonig2572]

Some of the handguns in this game are like shotguns with too much range -and I love them for it. I think I played the second half of the game only using the same thick pistol. That, and the gold-plated baseball bat : )

Sony likely fucked Cyberpunk because CDPR told people to get refunds. Sony historically doesn’t refund for shit and was forced to with this being a big story.

[@kreature6618]

Man I hope the reddit cyberpunk 2077 hating crew & the official CDPR cyberpunk forum get to watch this!!!! thank you.

[@HellKnightX88]

Good finale. I think Sony removed it because CDPR said everybody who wanted a refund would get it without talking to Sony, MS etc. first. Sony hates refunds, keep in mind that there have been cases in the past where people were denied refunds simply because they downloaded the game they bought. I think Sony wanted to make absolutely sure people understood this is an extraordinary situation in regards to refunds and removed the game from their online store because of that but also to send a clear message to other devs and to get back at CDPR.

[@khmnc]

36:30 you probably have already found out the answer by now but sony said the reason why they took down cyberpunk was cd offering refunds was against their tos as they don't give refunds for any reason (at the time, don't know about now). so putting out disfunctional broken games with the most disgusting monetization schemes is a-ok but you can't then offer refunds for it.

[@BleuSkiddew]

38:00 I'm not on board with that theory. Hindsight 20-20 I suppose, but I'm pretty sure it was put back in the store a little bit ago.

Beautiful review. I think you should follow all major updates and progress on this game. The game received so much hate but really.. I had fun. Keep in mind I wasn't trying to play it on a console, because I am not child from a poor home, but on PC, like a sexy genius. I really hope they keep adding content to it. The game has potential but it certainly needs to be fleshed out

[@thelastminuteman7513]

If you like the quests, stories, characters and dialogue in CP77 then you really ought to play The Witcher 3. I mean mild spoiler there is huge side quest where one small part of it you have to exercise an aborted fetus demon. I'm not even being hyperbolic on that and it may sound stupid or off the wall but it was one of the best side quests in any game I've ever played. It almost could've been a game it's self.

[@FreeKanal]

Finally i watched 3rd part of this review. It took me some time because i wanted to finish CP2077 before watching this part. And maaaan u are just so right... i thought the same about Sony and things they were doing with CDPR. Love to see someone noticing that. I wonder how much Sony and global corporations influenced CDPR execs against core developers. We also know that Sony cooperate with Rockstar to create next GTA as exclusive on PS5. CDPR wanted to make CP2077 online and who takes all money from Open World Gta like online experiences from market? Sony.... and it is a lot of money, why would u let some company with their CP2077 game to take away your profit in the near future ???

[@mysteryneophyte]

a new shadowrun game would be a super bad ass...a Triple A game... I think... i wish someone would make that an awesome ass next gen game.

[@darkshamrock5763]

And this game is still miles above starfield. Many are shouting for a SF redemption arc, I don’t think it’ll go down as well as CP77. Story can’t be fixed
