Cyberpunk 2077 (No Spoilers) Discussion Thread

A company has denied accusations that their current project is going poorly. In other news, it’s cold with a chance of freezing up in the Arctic

I am glad they spoke up, but I will wait for actual goods. That trailer is so old, that I doubt it is representative of the game. Or at least I hope so, I did not like the graphics and combat (?) movement in it. I want to see art or gameplay, even prelims.

When I see something other than 4 years old half-ass trailer and a BS statement about how it's all really peachy and we are just better than everyone else, I'll believe the project is fine. I hope they are not feeding those cows chocolate to show off the high fat content in milk.

So, yes, give me a shout when something real is demo'd.

I am not sure if that is true (the bolded text). I suspect that they have troubles putting the project together because they are deviating from the only formula they have used so far as a blue-print for their games and that it has to do with additional funding secured from the government for MP and the recent departures of staff. yes, I understand that the trailer was just thrown in in a hurry, and that is why I will need to see something more to confirm that CP is awesome.

And, yes, I also realize that this discussion is about two year too early. Fingers crossed they will wrap up whatever lose ends they have with Witcher series at a long last, and finally, FINALLY pull it together for CP. I really want to see them throw everything they have into Cyberpunk ASAP.

In all honesty, I wish that they had moved to Cyberpunk in 2008, so they are almost a decade behind the schedule for me.... Better later than never, but still. Hurry UP!

Superhik that's essentially what I meant. They are switching both from the Action/adventure to an actual RPG, and from one setting to another, so I think that's causing problems, friction, etc. The team sat on Witcher for over a decade, so building and writing something else is likely rocky. I do wish they'd moved on sooner rather than this late.

I also really want to know if they are actually going all the way in to do a party-based game with full companion cast, or just dipping their toes and simply go for a customizable protagonist, sort of a part-way thing.

So essentially: Don't preorder? Didn't plan to anyway. TW 1 and 2 didn't really deliver for me.

I’d like Cyberpunk to be great, but I’m not exactly invested in it at this point.

So I don’t feel too concerned, let them take however long it takes.

Yea. I learned my lesson with Master of Orion 3. But we still become hyped again and again. It's dreams and hopes.

Just like every football season when I think: "THIS time, Schalke is gonna make it!"

I like the people in here acting like they know what the hell is going on with the studio. All experts in AAA game development I suspect.

I'm just tired of this doomsaying that seems to be buzzing no matter where you go. The truth is, we don't know what's going on. There's no point assuming one way or the other.

I was hoping bars/night clubs would play a central role in the game. Sort of Shadowrun feel to it, where you form a team to do a job.
My dream is that they'll have missions, style of Ocean's 11, where you'll need specialists working together to achieve a goal, Cyberpunk has a huge repertoire of skills for it.
