[@mangoman7346]

Yeah I think his point of noone having clear motivations is total bullshit, human life is valued so little that the only thing people can really do to feel like they're worth something is to become a legend, even if you're a high paid arasaka executive they don't give jackshit if you live or die as shown in the corpo intro. Also V doesn't need to have motivation like jackie being on life support because he already has motivation, HE.DOES.NOT.WANT.TO.DIE. I can't believe the act man has overlooked these extreamly clear points the game is making.

[@rusty9573]

He didn't know that she was an AI at the time, he didn't even know about Soulkiller at the time. In fact, he disconnected her from the terminal before she could use Soulkiller to reinsert herself back into her still-living body, thus killing her because of his ignorance. Johnny not being interested or giving Alt credit over her netrunning abilities and career was a flaw called out during one of his flashbacks.

[@Promi374]

Generally, he dismisses a lot the storytelling. In this game a lot is told by the messages and shards you find. This is a way of presentation not everyone will like. But just saying there is nothing to immerse in is an exaggeration. I won't talk about the updated game. I played the game right after release. And other than for a few gamebraking glitches I had a blast. Yes, first-Person is not my favorite view for this kind of game, but I knew this before. Not to switch for 3rd-person in cut-scenes was probably to not cut the flow of the game, and I think this works fine. Even if this is up to debate and personal taste. Don't compare fantasy medieval worlds to a futuristic cyberworld. What enemies do you suggest to find? A Dragon? A Zombie? A Pack of wolf's? Wrong game! And the last point: 50 hours of play? Man, you have seen nothing from this game. Take a longer stroll through the city and keep an open ear and eye to the surrounding. You will find a lot of context to this world.

9:40 I felt like coming back to this after the recent resurgence of cyberpunk. Honestly the number of gamers that have a tiny attention span has increased over the years and all it took was one Anime. The game is less buggy now but a lot of the features they promised still don't exist and yet we already have plans for DLC and people are excited. Why? The game now runs but it's still shallow. I can still do way more in GTA V and don't even get me started on RDR 2 activities. If you're reading this comment and think otherwise watch this entire video all over again to refresh your memories of the years of lies we got. Then comment. Fixing a buggy game is a plus but common guys.

[@catb0mb]

nah. i agree the game isn't perfect, there's a lot missing still that i wish was there but i'm able to appreciate the writing and combat a lot more now. also maybe this is just a me thing, but unless it directly gave me an advantage or actually focused more in tandem on the core gameplay, most of those other activities are really pointless if you ask me. a quick distraction. at least the shooting range in gta upped your stats relating to it and fishing and hunting in rdr2 gave you food for either yourself or the camp. what did tennis, drinking, golfing, or smoking even impact in the long run in gta? nothing really. it's a distraction but that's it. and I think most people ended up ignoring that.

[@Gowst99]

@@catb0mb The Drinking and smoking I agree were side distractions, but activities like Tennis and golfing are actually good side activities. There are even full fledged sports games made by 2k so I wouldn't consider these activities as just a distraction. GTA also had a neat Theater you could go to and I felt like with the whole Brain dance was a missed opportunity for VR headsets. They could have used that in a way like allowing us to have a Theater mode to give the illusion of a real world Brain dance. Hunting in RDR 2 was not just for the camp but also tied to an upgrade System for your pouch, carry weight etc. It also provided an enjoyable challenge if you focused on getting a perfect pelt from every animal because you had to progress through the story and unlock specific weapons before you could hunt for a perfect pelt for some animals. The strangers and freaks missions were also a neat side activity because they were mostly doing random things rather than just point and shoot. Random encounters in RDR 2 were also my favorite, it could lead to treasure hunting, helping civilians or just watching them get mauled by wild animals. Bounty hunting in each state was also nice especially bringing them in alive or just plane stealing another NPCs bounty or trying to protect your own bounty from other npc's. I also like how in GTA you were not just limited to cars and bikes to get around the map. You could steal aircrafts. I personally enjoyed just getting random planes or helicopters and skydiving to a destination.

[@catb0mb]

@@Gowst99 but they still mean nothing on gameplay. it's irrelevant to everything else. and what do 2k sports games have anything to do with this? again i don't play gta to golf or play tennis. i do it to commit crimes. it feel unnecessary to commit precious developer time to something most people won't even bother with for the sake of "immersion". when I played gta v back in like 2016 for the first time, I never bothered with leisure activities. I just played the main story and side missions because those contained the gameplay the game was selling me on and what I was looking for. in rdr2 it has more impact and relevancy to gameplay, i'll give you that. but you can still beat the entire story without donating to the camp once or without even trying to upgrade your character, so it feels near unnecessary. if the game halted story progress if the camp was low on funds, it'd make more sense but it doesn't do that. i understand feeling miffed at the things cdpr lied about. some of it is cool and it sucks we'll never see it, such as the corrupt cop system. but a lot of it feels just unnecessary and goes down to the biggest problem 2077 has, that it tried to do too much in development rather then being focused on one thing. what would wallrunning add? basically none of the level design is built around it. what would side leisure activities add other than a distraction? hell I don't even think I've tried hooking up with a joytoy (the only real example of this in-game) once. because it's not what the game is selling me on. the game is selling me on THE GAME. not fucking a hooker. what would the metro system add? another way to travel? why bother when we have cars and the fast travel stations? what about daily npc routines? sure it would be cool but how many average players would even notice that? my point is that all of this stuff is just unnecessary fluff at the end of the day, save for a few genuinely cool ideas. it sucks that they lied, yes. but i think the game would've been even more unfocused if they actually tried to jam all this in. cyberpunk isn't perfect. it's still far from what I wanted it to be, which is an fps rpg on the same design level as new vegas. but as it is it's a fun open world fps with light rpg elements and REALLY good character writing (seirously, did act man even bother with panam's quests? or river ward? or even LISTEN to johnny's backstory? there's a lot to care for with those characters and i really felt invested in them.) and here's the last thing too. might sound like i'm overselling it, but the reason people aren't coming back is because of "just one anime." it's because that "one anime" proved to be a better introduction to the world then the actual game did, and it got so many people connected on an emotional level to the world that they want to explore more of it. it's not just a show, but a fucking amazing one. and even if you haven't played 2077 or are still burned by it I highly recommend watching it.

[@Gowst99]

@@catb0mb Perhaps you're missing the point here. The point is CD Projekt Red over selled and lied what Cyberpunk would be. So other things other than just linier progression come into play and it becomes difficult not to compare it to other titles that advertise what features they offer. Games like GTA or RDR do not ignore other activities in their Gameplay videos because they want to show everything that is in the game and possible to do. The more features the higher the chance of capturing a bigger audience. If you're in it only for the linier progression, then more power to you. For others like me, we prefer to experience the full package as "advertised".What CD Projekt advertised would I guess be adequate to someone just looking to progress the story mission and ignore everything else. Which is what they should have advertised instead of baiting many people, who appreciate to have other things to do other than just getting from point A to point B and finish the story, into buying their game. If they just did that most people would have just been annoyed by the bugs not about lack of features or cut content. And i have watched the Anime. As for Cyberpunk, i keep updating it because I really hope it will get to a point were I can feel some for of satisfaction. The main quest will never be updated to have branching out comes as advertised, that's too much work for them. The only hope is in the DLC but I have a feeling it will also just be as linier without any consequences to who you keep alive or kill.

I'm surprised more people don't know that tons of developers left CDPR after The Witcher 3, and most of them said the reason they left was because of incompetent management (poor communication, unreasonable crunch periods, all that fun stuff). That's not even getting into how Witcher 3 had its own miniature controversy over downgraded graphics and how buggy the game was at release. Think most people who idolized CDPR after Witcher 3 don't realize that it was only a great game through dogged determination from a poorly supported, overworked and under appreciated dev team that moved onto greener pastures after that game's release.

I think all the story needed was to make a simple story of V getting to the top in Night City; it's simple enough in order to give players many choices and actually start at a different points through their life paths. The current Black Mirror plotline is definitely a doozy, too complex/artsy-fartsy, and heavily narrow down choices. I know how bad the story is when they tried so hard to sell Johnny as the hero, and how siding with Arasaka would be the worst ending right after literally killing yourself that CDPR just tries so hard to show you which choices are "Right" and "Wrong" from their narrative instead of yours.

Ignoring the bugs, Cyberpunk still has horrible physics, boring gameplay especially at higher levels, a boring city with really nothing to do besides missions (In GTA V, there were tons of other activities you could do), a true lack of build diversity (GTA had no builds, just increase your stats. Cyberpunk has 2 builds (Tech and Hacking), everything else is just a supplement. This game is empty and for the most part, boring. Fixing the bugs won't help it.

You said something that I didn't really hear anywhere else say, or even let soak in myself. Which was "Even a year more development wouldn't fix this game". Something dawned on me here.... Looking at the game in it's current state, we're looking at 4+ years to achieve the "promised" version of the game that was intended to be released. I think the higher ups even realized this. Releasing the game now and taking some heat, was the better option of having to actually do the work for another 4 years.

If they do, and *add* all the parts they promised but didn't deliver, then, when the *promised* game is done, we will know how much longer they should have waited.

[@malohn2068]

The issue is that the missions in a vacuum, one by one is REALLY good. Highly engaging and immersive as hell. But from A to C you have the city which is B. And the city as others have said, feels like an extended loading screen. You dont do much except go to another mission. Sure its pretty but its soulless NPCs ruin the atmosphere. Whenever I help someone that gets attacked, them thanking me is the only interaction I have with the NPCs that make me feel somewhat caring and immersed.

[@oscardighton8580]

I actually agree, even in comparison to the Witcher 3, in the Witcher you have npcs talking about things relating to the area and quests, certain npcs spawn in certain zones that they fit into, you get dock workers and prostitues in the docks of novigrad and rich townsmen in well off areas of novigrad, but in cyberpunk there is very little of this, it feels very mashed together and with very little of it fitting in place and the npcs don’t even feel like they are actually in the games world.

[@cyanogen7582]

Yeah the missions and the characters were done pretty damn well overall. It's just the more I go through the game, the more obvious it becomes that they just didn't have enough time to finish the game. Stuff I would have thought to be no-brainer additions were blatantly missing. The time skip cut scene after meeting Jackie just seemed like an intentional band-aid of what would have been fully fleshed out missions just for simple lack of time. A lot of corners were cut definitely, and they should've waited longer.

Alot of the criticism this game gets wouldn't have happened if it was marketed differently, this game isn't about being who you want to be, it's about being V, it doesn't matter what guns you have or what clothes you wear, you're still V, the game should've been marketed around V as a character rather than "someone the player customizes" cus this is more about V's story than it is a story the player makes.

[@gman7497]

It was initially going to be that and then Keanu got involved and it became much more story driven, less about just being 'in the world of Cyberpunk". The biggest mistake was completely changing the games focus halfway thru development.

[@thegrapethief5514]

It chose this unhappy medium where you don’t have enough freedom to truly make it feel like your own story, with the biggest problem being that you can’t really give yourself much of a motivation, but also not fleshing out V as their own character enough to make them not feel like just a vessel for the player. It simultaneously makes V as an individual character separate from the player weaker, but also makes them fail as a character that the player uses as a vessel to express themselves, like how you can characterize the kind of person that Courier Six is in New Vegas or Hell, how you can even characterize Link in BotW in little ways even if your dialogue options are fairly limited. It felt like there was a disconnect between the way that I chose to act and the way that V acted without my control, which made my decisions feel like they meant less. They tried to have their cake and eat it too, and they ended up dropping it on the floor. In fact, this design philosophy of trying to do contrasting things is echoed throughout the entire game’s design. It feels like, in an effort to market this game to as many people as possible, they tried to do so many different things and none of them get fleshed out enough to work very well but still conflict with each other.

It’s amazing! There was this good big patch!” And let me tell you, it’s still so full of bugs, both visual and gameplay, I even had a game breaking bug in a main mission that made the game crash multiple times and I was stuck on it for a while. The world couldn’t feel more dead and bland, it’s big and pretty but at the same time it feels lifeless. I hated most of the characters, Johnny especially, only decent characters were Jackie and Takemura. The main character V is unlikable, the dialogue is just weird no real people talk like that. And most of all what’s the point of customizing your own character and not being able to see them??

When it comes to bugs in gaming that’s just something you’re gonna have to deal with, I mean if you look at MW2 beta it was still buggy and yet you know for a fact that once it’s partially fixed everyone will still play it, as if glitches didn’t exist. Night city is meant Feel like a lifeless, dead, and bland experience due to crimes, cyber psychosis and cops not given a care about civilians, and of course arasaka. like what did you expect society to come out as, if it had these kinds of experience😂 And Johnny was meant to be an annoying character they didn’t care about anybody else around them since people saw him as a crazy individual that hated Arasaka for no reason, So of course he felt lonely in his own lane and started to be fake around his friends and using people for destruction, Since he was the only witness that saw the horrifying management inside the Operation of Arasaka. Top tier character in my opinion. The reason why the game itself made you customize your own character it’s because they wanted you to feel as if your literally inside the game, You’re the character or the legend or your the villain. Your choice, Yeah it sucks that you couldn’t see your characters Face That much but at the same time just like in real life, you barely see yourself, Like a lot of people are insecure looking at themselves in a mirror or even taking a picture. You just wake up go to work get back home eat and sleep, Just like real life. Don’t know what kind of dialogue is weird for V but if you’re talking about the interactions with Panam. obviously every relationships in general are going to be cringe that’s how close relationships is, when you focus yourself being Mr perfect all the time, it just makes you look boring and uninspired to think outside the box. so of course in a loving relationship you’re going to have to be corny. Outside of that once again the city is a heartless place so everyone you meet in night city, there personalities will either be dirty, slow or lazy. I can’t think of anything else that makes cyberpunk really bad honestly even the act man video is poorly misleading.

[@thegrapethief5514]

@dj Kplus yes. Because there’s nothing to really do aside from buying stuff and doing quests or crimes. Normal people are supposed to live in Night City. The fact you can’t gamble, can’t play any arcade games, can’t eat in a restaurant, can’t work out in a gym, can’t do much aside from killing people and stealing stuff, and can’t interact with the population makes it a dead city. It looks amazing, but there’s absolutely no substance to it. There’s so much to see and so little to do.

[@thegrapethief5514]

@dj Kplus no, no it isn’t. Cyberpunk is an open world game. Open worlds are, for the most part, only as good as the content within them, and that content needs variety. Just having a bunch of the same thing to do makes an open world bad and lifeless. This is exactly why people don’t like Ubisoft games. That stuff I talked about wasn’t fluff, it is integral to crafting a good, immersive open world. Without variety of content, including the stuff I mentioned, it is bland, repetitive and boring. So it’s absolutely not fluff. It IS substance. And it matters way more than you give it credit for. Let’s look at an actual good open world game for a second: Breath of the Wild. While there’s definitely a main story and a bunch of side quests in a quest log, there’s also a lot to do in the open world. Shrines and Korok Seeds make up a massive percentage of the content in Botw, and yet you would apparently define that as fluff. Then there’s all the cool mini games you can do, like Snowling, the chest game, foot racing, archery challenges, and more. There is infinitely more variety to Botw than there is to Cyberpunk, and much of that is owed to what you describe as “fluff.” However, it doesn’t stop there. Cyberpunk’s quest design is repetitive and boring, you’re doing the same thing over and over again, and with how the game bottlenecks play styles, you’ll be forced to resort to the same approach for basically every mission. Meanwhile, in a quality open world, like New Vegas or Skyrim, the quests are all varied and different, not just “go here and shoot these guys, maybe rescue a hostage or plug yourself into a computer.” Breath of the Wild’s side/shrine quests range from finding and taming a gargantuan horse, to freeing an ancient dragon from an evil curse, to being stranded on an island where you can only rely on the tools you find there, to piecing together a prehistoric monument, to taking photos of Guardians for a person named Loone who is attracted to them, the list goes on and on. There were like maybe a dozen or so side quests in Cyberpunk that I thought were interesting, and about half of those I actually had fun playing and getting through them.

[@thegrapethief5514]

@dj Kplus it actually is, at least partially. The game never encourages you or pushes you to handle encounters differently, and being able to actually pick between which ones you want to use becomes harder with how carefully you need to spend your skill points in order to actually be good at anything. If I can just solve all of my problems by running in and slicing everybody up with a katana, and face no real consequences for it, what reason do I have to do anything else when the gameplay style that I’ve made my character really good at can just do everything I need? With how much the game bottlenecks you with how scarce skills points are, and with how you earn more by earning experience for something you’ve already invested a lot of points into, how can you really have flexibility without severely sacrificing the effectiveness of any of them? It doesn’t matter what the shards say, they’re still generic. A few paragraphs you can read are not an alternative for more varied and interesting quest design. Those guards should have pulled up on the employees and opened fire on them in front of you. The use of shards as a replacement for showing it in game goes completely against “show, don’t tell.” The shards border on “Drebin explaining the backstories of the B&B unit after the fight with them in MGS4” levels of lazy, poor design. The enemy variety in this game is a complete joke, I’m glad we can at least agree on that. You managed to completely miss the point of what I said. Shrines and Korok seeds revolve around puzzles and mini games. They are also the majority of the “content” in Breath of the Wild. How is operating a big cannon or putting a rock down in a circle of other rocks any less “stupid” than the mini games of SA or NV? Again, show, don’t tell. The shards are lame excuses for terrible mission variety. At least in Skyrim you actually interact with the world and see the stuff people talk about. This even goes back to Oblivion with stuff like the Dark Brotherhood. Elder Scrolls quest design and world-building is superior to Cyberpunk’s because they aren’t reliant on a completely optional essay that tells you something the game should have shown you. By your logic, cumbersome and unnecessary exposition isn’t a flaw, and a game that tells you a ton of information is better than a game that shows you the important information. I honestly could not give less of shit about the updates. The game is a clunky mess and has a bad and boring foundation. Unless they pull a Battlefront 2 and totally overhaul the game, it won’t be fixed or even worth buying. The stuff you’re talking about should have been in the game on day one. What you just described is the bare minimum a person ought to expect out of a AAA open world game. The AI isn’t good now, it’s just functional enough, like GTA V’s AI. The combat isn’t a sandbox when you have to walk in with only one or two things to play with.

[@thegrapethief5514]

@dj Kplus holy shit I’m not even going to try and reason with you anymore. I thought I was actually talking to a real person who actually could respect another human being, but your response is barely coherent. I guess it’s my fault for playing on Very Hard, because once I got past the early game, I got punished for experimenting with anything besides my best weapons and skills, which I had mostly invested into hacking, Cold Blood, katana skills, and speed, with my cyberware mostly focused around agility and slowing down time. I actually did manage to stealth my way through a few scenarios, making do with hacking instead of takedowns and such. But the game never gave me any real incentive to do so. I could just run through with the katana and there was no noticeable difference. My issue isn’t with the shards themselves. It’s how you’re using them as an excuse for bland and repetitive quest design. I never said stuff like that didn’t happen at all. In the real side missions, it did happen and I appreciated it when it did. But the vast majority of missions don’t have this. What they have is shards that explain everything when the game could have shown me, or at the very least had a character talk about it instead of having to pull up the pause menu and read it all. I like reading, but games have alternative methods of storytelling that should have been used instead of the shards. Imagine if in New Vegas, nobody talked about the origin of the Powder Gangers or why they were threatening Goodsprings, and you were instead handed or found a written threat from the Powder Gangers explaining their origin and how they were looking for Ringo and wanted the territory. Sure, it would work, but what we got in game is so, so much better. Look, I would be more comfortable with that sort of storytelling if it was in something like Kirby, Dark Souls, or Elden Ring, where the lore is intentionally obscure, and not used as an excuse for bland and boring mission design by basically just existing purely so that guys like you can say the missions aren’t repetitive even though the structure of each is almost copy+paste. I’m not even going to bother trying to deal with any of your pathetic straw-man arguments. You’re putting words into my mouth and preaching your own superiority constantly. It’s clear you’re not interested in any sort of productive or intelligent debate. You’re only interacting with me to heap praise upon yourself and insult me. It’s honestly quite pathetic. You’re only interested in worshipping this game and touting it as this masterpiece of game design, and berate anyone who dislikes it or has an issue with the game design, and claim them as unintelligent or claim they have poor taste. People like you aren’t worth my time or sanity, so I’m not wasting any more of either on you.

The entire thing, past those years, granted. is bloody excellent. Mostly this stems from the atmosphere, some quests, Panam, Johnny. Oh god damn. Johnny.

Man, all three side quests are probably so great these days.

There was a CDPR developer who said "if CDPR wants to be realistic, Cyberpunk 2077 should be released in 2022 and if CDPR wants to meet fans' expectations, it must be released even later".Since the success of the Witcher 3, CDPR feels they are Polish rockstars

@@Pancasilaist8752 CDPR should’ve just stayed silent about the game and then released the game finished later on. Instead, they decided to create a hype train, with investors forcing them to release the game unfinished.

The story of Cyberpunk2077 makes a lot more sense if you'r caught up on the tabletop lore, Arasakas misdeeds, the corpo wars, Johnny's motivations. That being said, the game knew full well that most people havent and would not play Cyberpunk Red or 2023, so it was entirely on the devs to put in that exposition that provides the context that the game needed to stand on it's own.

[@Spartan-sz7km]

Don't even know what's cyberpunk 2023 lol, I only know during the secret ending Johnny silver hand references 'party like it's 2023'

[@infinitedreamer9359]

If a person needs to read supplementary material to understand the context of a story,it means surprise surprise,it ain't a good story! And this was a dumb easily avoidable mistake on CDPR devs part too.

[@normaaliihminen722]

@@Spartan-sz7km Well It would be really easy to understood that Arasaka Kidnapped Alt Cunningham Johnny's on/off Gf and used her to create Mikoshi/Soulkiller Granted It was also Game's story writing team fault aswell but I really dont understand ''story was confusing'' -argument.

@@infinitedreamer9359 Well CDPR is well known for making what are essentially Game Sequels to other Media, The Witcher games are sequels to the book, Cyberpunk 2077 is a sequel to Cyberpunk 2023.

[@infinitedreamer9359]

@@lad7436 Okay and?Even if that's what they're known for,it doesn't change the fact that they did a poor job of providing context for CP2077's story. It was a dumb mistake they should've accounted for considering they have to have known that a large majority of people who picked up the game weren't going to know about the tabletop source material. If you have to pick up supplementary material to get a games story,than that's not good storytelling. And using The Witcher(as CPR's last project) as an example,that game did a better job of providing the needed context so that people weren't left confused about the main plot and the world setting and the story was able to be more effective because of that.

I gave this game another chance when phantom liberty came out. I 100% the game and almost failed out of school because of it. It’s not perfect but I ran into about 4 or 5 bugs and none of them were game breaking. The biggest one was 2 or 3 times I couldn’t pick up an item to complete a quest but all I had to do was restart the game and it worked. Annoying but wasn’t often. You should give it another shot. I played 160+ hours had a blast and I wish I had more to play because there isn’t anything like it.

@@MolkoKillStyle is usually kid falling for those. And you're able to tend him get away cuz most of those games are technically or usually free to play. Noodle some of them may be pay-to-win, pay-to-win is in part of false advertising. In other words they wouldn't really get in trouble so much unless people actually again bought something and didn't get what they paid for. The only reason why most mobile games Donkey caught with the false advertising pink. Never mind that there are so many out there, and never mind the fact that some of them might be made by Foreign creators who don't even live in the states and may have different advertisement laws. and some games out there some might find decent for their play style organs that might have actually been decent games and could have gotten better had more work was put into them. But the developers don't care to do so and just try to make money off of it in any way possible even if it's just shoving an ad in your face for every time you tap the screen. people seeing only bad apps use the tactic, even the good ones are starting to use this tactic. Even good games made by good developers on the Google Play is starting to use bulshit tactics from shoving ads in your face to making misleading advertisements.

[@HK47_115]

@@MolkoKillStyle one example of a good game that was fine and didn't need to lie about its mechanics or its gameplay, war machines on Google Play Android. It was a pretty good game at the time I started playing it. I'm pretty sure it still is. I haven't played in a while so I'm not 100% sure. But they started coming out with ads right before I stop playing that that Ward completely lying about the type of game it was or at least it's gameplay style or mechanics whatever the heck. And it didn't make sense why they would lie and try to mislead people when they can easily drop people in with the truth. A third-person multiplayer based War robots game. They're advertising said they were ready had and we're honest were completely five. Then they just started bullshiting people out of nowhere. And it did and it didn't make any sense because this was a good game made by decent Developers.

Development started in 2016 after the studio finished the Blood and Wine dlc for Witcher 3. Also in 2016 was when they started work in earnest on Red Engine 4, the engine that CP2077 runs on, so they were prototyping gameplay and the underlying technology at the same time, slowing them down. Realistically the game should probably have been released in either very late 2021 or early 2022 [ assuming delivery of all previously touted features is desired ]. Of course, having said that, I loved the game as it is, even as I was very disappointed by how unfinished gameplay loop and the open world felt.
