    I will definitely wait for reviews, but I hope it is as good as the day it is… I have waited until now to play Cyberpunk again (quit after 10 when it released)

      Honestly I loved it my first time through. There were certainly bugs (minor spoilers), but they were more amusing than game-breaking. I’m mostly waiting on new game plus (fingers crossed) to revisit it.

        I encountered so many quest related bugs and one finally prevented my from continuing the main quest…

        What I played was OK, but it’s hard to tell because it felt so unpolished :/

        That’s why I’m so super excited for the DLC! It looks really good!

      I’ve tried it when there was a timed trial like 1 or 2 years ago already?

      It looked very fun to me, apart from the bugs, but like the trailers. The world seemed to be interesting, the gunplay seemed to be really cool, etc.

      When I got to play it felt like GTA but with like zombie NPCs. Whatever it was, they felt really uncanny and not real.

      However, I kept playing since I wanted to shoot some guns really bad. When I finally got to it in this training area, it felt not satisfying at all? The aiming curve seemed completely weird and there was also what felt like a big delay when aiming. Really made me put the game down

        Lucky you… I got fooled and bought completely into the hype train (my own fault)… and unfortunately it really wasn’t the game I (and everybody else) was expecting.

        But it looks like they put in a lot of work and redid the whole perk system, AI, police, etc.

        So I’m positively optimistic, but I’m 100% waiting on some reviews before I buy it.

          Well, fortunately I didn’t pay attention to the game at all before. The cyberpunk style just wasn’t my thing so I didn’t bother looking into it.

          It was only like a few weeks before launch where I was looking for ps5 games for my brand new consoles and saw it. Checked out some trailers and was hyped to buy… only then to find out it’s ps4 only. I looked into it and read that the ps5 version would take up to another year. That killed my interest again, because it was kind of a bad sign imo and again, I was looking for ps5 games. Wanted more games with the awesome haptic feedback, triggers and load times. Just didn’t want to go back to a ps4 game.

          The abysmal launch came and I feel like I really dodged a bullet. A friend told me how it’s not even the bugs but more like the core stuff don’t working, such as the path finding on the map etc is just off and gives you directions that take way longer and shit.

          Don’t think I’ll ever buy it tho, as what I played was only ‘meh’ as well and there’s way too many games, only on my backlog already. Maybe when it’s free on ps plus or so I’ll give it a go

            You really dodged a bullet there tbh.

            The game was just a bit too ambitious and released way too early… it was basically Witcher 3 + GTA in a cyberpunk setting.

            Let’s see if they managed to turn the game around.

            Wanted more games with the awesome haptic feedback, triggers and load times. Just didn’t want to go back to a ps4 game.

            I completely understand this… The only game that really felt like it was next gen (or current gen) so far was Returnal.

              I couldn’t agree more man. Returnal has absolutely blown me and I’m thirsting for more.

              If you haven’t played it yet I’d recommend you control. Not quite like returnal, and came out on ps4 actually I think. But also makes great use of the controller, has a dash mechanic and also a weird story that is super interesting. I loved both of them and it depends on the day which I would say is like my favorite game

                It was so amazing! I really was blown away… but unfortunately nothing since then came close.

                Ah yes control - I got myself the platinum twice, but excellent recommendation! Have you played Alen Wake Remastered? It’s also from the studio of Control (Remedy) and plays in the same connected universe.

                  Omfg yes, exactly the same! And I’m kinda mad it’s overlooked like that. It’s not just good or something, it’s THE game of the generation so far. I can’t believe people are missing out on it.

                  The other PS exclusives, I loved horizon for being this graphical achievement and how they upgraded the gameplay from the previous one. But as it was said like 5 million times already, Aloy needs to shut the fuck up sometimes. Now the puzzles aren’t always super straight forward and I could use a little help here and there, but me arriving at any destination ‘maybe I can attach my ropecaster there’ before I’ve even seen anything just got really boring to me. I got the plat nonetheless, and found every of the main collectibles. The story was very cool imo, it had incredible new enemies and stuff… but this handholding really left a bitter taste in my mouth

                  Ironic enough, I started my Alan Wake playthrough like last week! I kind of held off because after returnal that gameplay just seemed slow and I’ve read it didn’t age that well, as it’s quite old. But honestly I’m having a blast. I’m having constant goosebumps playing it lol. It’s not insanely good and snappy like returnal, but the mechanic with the flashlight is just incredible and the world is so interesting. Remedy is really good when it comes to world building.

    $30 is too much.

    Many of these new features should have been in at release and should be included in a free update.

      They did say some will be part of the free 2.0 update but haven’t specified which features.
