Arbitrary limits on information just mean you have something to hide
Arbitrary limits on information just mean you have something to hide
And even if that’s not the case for a specific game, normalizing this shit means that once you have something to hide, it’s no longer raising eyebrows.
I agree, but I would say that treating it as a worst case interpretation every time would lead to the best outcome.
Never normalize hiding info from the people, and only the honest rise to to the top. Radical honesty is good for everyone.
I mean…yeah. This sounds deeper than it actually is lol.
Yeah, could be bugs but could equally also be spoilers
Just play the free patch and if its still ass don’t buy phantom liberty. Ez
It’s CDPR I’m sure it’d be good /s
Also, it’s a small indie studio, so gotta give them some slack, eh?
not letting reviewers use their own gameplay footage before release.
We saw this before…I wonder will this time. It will have the same ending? 🍿
Lol, and many people are looking to get duped again
CDPR, CDPR? CDPR…
Y’all can’t be doing this right now.
It feels like every corporate entity is out to sabotage themselves these days…
TBF I don’t trust IGN anyway, they have too much finanicial incentive to do as they’re told. Maybe we need like a megathread of trustworthy reviewers.
@Ghostalmedia So strange. Everyone is already suspicious when it comes to the game, why add fuel to the fire?
Since that 1.6x is pretty stable and performant, I’d be shocked if this rollout was bad.
That said, given 1.0’s monumentally terrible launch, and the press restrictions that hid performance problems, you’d think CDPR would be trying to be transparent AF this time around.
I just thought it was a fascinatingly bad marketing decision that made this an interesting review worth posting. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Probably because it’s less fuel than video would be.
Right? Pre order the DLC to the game that became the poster child for “vote with your wallet or this is your future,” sure.
Scumbag CDPR.
Good job cdpr, I was planning on finally actually buying this game. Now you’ve told me it’s still the same mess it’s always been, and to continue holding off. Maybe in a few more years, when I can get the full game with dlcs for less than $30.
The updated system requirements for Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 are fucking insane.
Has any 3rd party talked about the performance?
ACG says performance kept being improved up to 2.0 but couldn’t show any footage.
I really doubt it’s much of an improvement from how the game already runs
A 9/10???
IGN is such a meme.
A 5 is average.
They are saying this game is so good, it’s essentially flawless and beyond comparison in all areas compared to all other games.
How much does a 9 cost?
Game reviews are a 5 point system.
5 is unplayable shit, 7 is average, 10 is le hidden gem.
And anything below 3 is a train wreck worth playing for the laughs.
I don’t understand why IGN submits to this. IGN is an American outlet, so the Fair Use policy of the DMCA applies to them.
It has nothing to do with DMCA. It’s not copyright infringement.
It’s violating an NDA on an unreleased product, and even if they can’t actually get damages, the day they do it they never get a review code from anyone ever again.
Yeah like if IGN doesn’t follow their rules. Welp no Witcher 4/whatever its called review copy when that comes around. Even though IGN sucks its probably better to have more voices than less in the review space. Playing these stupid games set out the publishers is the only way to play since I doubt there will be any solidarity done for IGN.
Hell I’m scheezed out by so many games doing this whole “preorder for early access” and getting around reviews. Look at Payday 3, it has done it and there are basically no critic reviews on it. Not sure if its due to an embargo or they literally didn’t even send out review copies, which isn’t a great look.
