If they just advertise games as early access and release them in an initial state like cyberpunk did at release i wouldn't mind at all, because the core gameplay and writing was always good
I think expecting UE5 to be the magic bullet for performance is a mistake. So far every game regardless of engine has had major performance issues across the board this generation. There needs to be a better distinction between tools that enable developers to do more in less time and real world performance. Lumen and Nanite and all the bells and whistles haven't translated to the user experience that was marketed at the start of this generation of gaming equipment. They lead us all to believe that these new advancements would lead to better performance in a context that was misleading imo. They had us all thinking gaming 60 to 120 fps would be doable at every resolution and that the new apis would solve scaling and load management. So far that has not happened. What we've found is the developers have more head room and are using as much as they can, but they are not optimizing their games. They are in a mind set that they have to use all the headroom at the cost of frames and latency. There is also technical deficit in people who know how to optimize games to modern APIs and work with windows on PC. This is why we have so many issues with games not using system components efficentally and sometime not at all. I just don't see how UE5 or any engine is going to fix all that.
After playing Phantom Liberty, it feels like Cyberpunk needs about 2 more yearly DLCs. The game isn't getting old anytime soon and that DLC was miraculous.
@@nicopinzelhave you seen how greate unreal editor for fortnite (modding tool) is ? I have done some research and unreal engine 5 is pretty open to mods. If developers want to publish an sdk for Orion it will be great.
Even though they F'd up the launch of Cyberpunk, it was super impressive that they stuck with it and not only fixed it, but turned it into one of the best games around.
Well they had to launch it cuz' of the public and lockdown had a part of it no doubt but CDPR showed they care about the players and they care about their product. There are few devs today that can say that.
The thing is, I loved the game from launch on PC, absolutely loved it, didn't experience any bugs or glitches. That's why whenever I see this comment I think we'll, I had a completely different experience on my side. I've completed Cyberpunk and Phantom Liberty twice and done 6 out of 12 endings so far. Probably nest game of my entire life.
The launch was forced by media and people complaining, the devs wanted more time to finish it properly before launch, but since they were presured to release, they had to do it.
They are just trying to convince and calm everyone that it is a good thing that the next Cyberpunk is made by the american studios and not the main studio in Poland. But of course it would be better with the polish main studio.
I honestly can't wait for the next Cyberpunk and The Witcher. Despite Cyberpunk 2077's rough launch, the devs stuck with and improved it as much as they could. Gamers have that "bully mentality" where they laugh at failure and never acknowledge improvement - and that's fine. Those who eventually gave it a chance actually enjoyed it, and then there are those who will stay away as if CDPR sent them a break-up text. Enjoyed the game since launch, can't wait to see what the next part in the Dystopian future has in store for us.
I've been following the game since the messy launch , never thought it to be this good. Bought it last week and I've been having a blast , I love it. It's probably going to be one of my most loved games.
Honestly night city is so large with the 310 hours I have for sure I don’t think I’ve been everywhere you can explore. I never get tired of Night City either by far my favorite fictional universe.
Anyone refusing to play Cyberpunk now just because it had a bad launch...or refusing to ever play another CDPR game...is just childish, but what do you expect from people these days. Only thing that puts doubt in my head is the fact they moved the Cyberpunk team to America and hired American writers and devs, thats what will ruin the game.
And one of the new hired writers worked at sweet baby inc. About half the 2077 writers arent working on it. Many of the new people dont have great track records. Safe to say the sequel will be dogshit storywise.
They have to use Night City though, it has been the setting of everything cyberpunk. Taking away Night City, is like taking away Gotham, from Batman. It doesn’t work, because Night City is the main character.
You clearly don't know anything about the cyberpunk world then its not fallout thats stuck in USA or DC that has to put a character in a particular location only.
@ Player_566-1 No it doesn't. But as mentioned before by some one else; it shows how little you and this channel actually know about the Pondsmith work or the genre in general. The Cyberpunk world/lore is massive and decades old and isn't only about the US or US corps. This is exactly why I hated gaming and the Cyberpunk genre going mainstream and being embraced and ruined by casuals like yourself.
PLEASE STOP!!! The fact that manhole covers looked different was 'emersion breaking' is just ridiculous!!! I have played through twice and I am pretty sure that I never once even noticed a single manhole cover!
Bro relax, that wasnt his or anyone that played the games problem and you missed the point entirely! It was mentioned by the creators that the game wasn’t “American” enough because it was set there and should have more of an “American” feel and immersion.
the creator gave that bullshit excuse for why the game was being developed by their US studios and not polish. True reason may be, costs, logistics, justification for why they have north American studios to begin with, or taxes/laws.
The lack of authentic american flare" is probably what makes NC look and feel unique and not just a futuristic and (even dirtier) version of modern America. I just fear that changing the development to the US might also change the non-PC culture so typical of CDPR but hey, guess we'll see.
I heard one of the lead writers on new CP is very PC. So I'm very skeptical of their next release. It may be a standard american AAA which are mostly awful nowadays. It will start with the writing being awful. And everything else just uninspired.
I know right, part of the world building is the fall of the US and reemergence of European financial domination. It would feel weird for it to be more American.
@@harmansingh95100tbh they always do. Witcher 1-3 and cyberpunk 2077 started very bugged and broken, and then fixed and upgraded. That's their way to make games. But Cyberpunk caused so much noise for some reason
@Alomant it was deserved imo. Witcher 3 was buggy, but it was playable. Ask anyone on last Gen whether they had a good experience at launch with cyberpunk.
what most people forget is that cd project red worked close with mike pondsmith on that projekt. And that there is a Lore reason why stuff in america became more european. And why they even use the Euro(dollar) there and not USD.
@@Vase94 yeah, but american games suck even after years or they never even get a fix and they abandon them. I played with Cyberpunk when it released it sucked ass but I gave it a chanche now and it is good, even though I experience in the gameplay that there was so much more content that was cut. I also Waited for Dying light 2 at released it sucked too, but now it is good, not as good as the first one but it is good. And also This is why I love Piracy at release, you can have a try at it because there are no demo for games anymore, but after a year or two you can get it cheaper and probably in a state it should come out in the first place.
One thing I love about starting games super late is not having a rocky history to be jaded by. I recently played Cyberpunk 2077 for the first time and loved everything about it, and because I waited I only know the game to be absolutely amazing. Just had a very similar experience with Darktide too. Really excited for whatever CDPR has cooking now, but I definitely won't be pre-ordering though.
My biggest fears were basically confirmed by who was being mentioned as being brought on to the project. Basically everyone you mentioned as being added, are or were majorly part of games that pushed massive monetization tactics. This is what I am terrified of and these additions only make my fears worse.
@@Vandetta333 And prior to Cyberpunk 2077, they always said they would never release a game til its ready. They have shareholders, and shareholders only care about the profits. PERIOD!
Project Orion could be either arasaka selling Vs engram to the Orion team, or Orion breaking her out on purpose or accident trying to rescue someone else's engram. That's a good reason to have v start from level one with a new body. And being an engram could allow v to access cyberspace to bring in a black wall storyline.
If they would simply do it like with older games, and you can connect peer to peer with a friend, this would solve so many problems, with a game code or just let us connect via steam even, no other 3rd party, which is ruining every game.
I'm sorry, but if you're "still feeling burned" by the launch of Cyberpunk, wtf? There can't REALLY be anyone that feels like that still, right? If so, good lord, get over it.
ngl i think he kind of missed the mark on that, i think there's VERY few people who are still hating on cyberpunk at this point. cpdr made a massive turnaround and i think almost everyone recognizes that. also, the devs were literally bullied into releasing the game early, i would argue it really wasn't their fault for the buggy launch but rather the impatience of the community.
@@imaginify6173 Less the community, more the investors - they kept pushing the release dates, whereas cdpr tried to put the launch back because they knew the game isn't finished. Fans only made fun of them and starting forcing them because they had their release postponed 3 times or so.
@@matteiasm.3618 ah okay, that makes a lot more sense. either way, they were pushed to release a half-baked game which was not at all their fault. if they were given the time they needed the release would've been much closer to what we have now i'd assume
Anyone saying they'll never support them again for..what, a rocky launch? That wasn't even half as bad as a Bethesda launch? I'd seriously doubt that they ever really did support CdProjektRed to begin with. People just like to talk in hyperbole. "I played half a Witcher game before! They owe me!"pfft. Favorite game ever.
They released a game that flat out did not work in many cases. To the point that Sony gave refunds for digital purchases for the first time ever. To say that it was a rocky launch is a massive understatement. They've more than redeemed themselves in my eyes, though, with the improvements made after the fact.
@guska5523 and yet I didn't experience any of that, playing on PC, with my setting maxed. Yes, that is literally only my experience, but I guarantee, I am not the only one.
Good to hear I just finished cyberpunk for the first time last week doing a replay for phantom liberty now . Love the game , glad to hear a sequel should be coming .
I can't wait for Orion. I came to Cyberpunk after PL and 2.0 had already released and fell in love with it immediately. I've never spent that much time on a game all at once. 270 hours flew by like it was nothing.
Cyberpunk is one of the masterpieces in gaming that everyone should play. Launch was awful but the game is in my top 10 now. I'm sure they've learned their lesson and im excited for the new game
This was a brillant game...even with the bugs at release, I could see the vision so overlooked the glitches...replayed it when the update and confirmed what I knew....the devs for this game need more recognition ... thank you all involved making cyberpunk
7:16 No it did not take place in LA, it takes place in Night City, geographically it is a coastal city near modern day Monteray, and was a "designer" city built by Richard Night, who was murdered during construction and thus they named the city after him. LA still exists in setting and is the capitol city of the state of Southern California.
It is a distinctly 80s American game, setting, and genre. The punk energy of the 80s and the punk energy of today are incredibly not the same. My despair for Orion is high, and my hopes are low.
@@kristiankopera Yup, in Morro Bay - a tiny retirement town with a good seafood place. You know how it is, the developers move in to a tiny undiscovered community and then it's all downhill from there...
I've played through Cyberpunk like 6 or 7 times now and I love it. It's def one of my all time favourites. I will for sure be buying the sequel; I just hope they take the time to get it right on launch this time.
Liked and subscribed sir! Long live Cyberpunk! I actually wanted more DLC content, the game still feels fresh, its drop dead gorgeous graphics and lighting is a treat to stare at! I want more for this game, more fixes/polish perhaps, surely more DLC content!!
If we have the same team behind Phantom Liberty at the helm then I am confident the sequel will be extraordinary. My personal desire however is that they continue the story of V and Johnny. There were so many questions left unanswered by most of the endings of the game. Most particularly the Johnny-Rouge/Johnny suicide mission ending. Working with the ever so cryptic Mr. Blue Eyes left us with a massive cliffhanger. There is such rich potential in the lore of the black wall and rouge AI’s and the game gave us such an air of fear and mystery behind it. That and grumbling of another corporate war… It would provide an excellent backdrop for a sequel with V and possibly Johnny. Mr Blue eyes and his mysterious background (it’s somewhat alluded that he’s a rouge AI manipulating humanity) and connections that could possibly help V survive the relic without compromising his life or competence as a merc. It would be a perfect narrative backdrop for a sequel, navigating the intrigue and uncertainty of another cooperate war as you work for Mr Blue Eyes in exchange for a cure and slowly uncover who he truly is learning more about what lies behind the blackwall. A narrative such as this would allow the writers to retain the same magic which originally made the V and Johnny dynamic such a great character duo and pave way for much more exciting themes in which made Phantom Liberty such an exceptional story. I don’t want to see V and Johnny’s story end just after one game. I see so much potential continuing it forward as a trilogy, similar to what CDPR did with Geralt of Rivia in this Witcher series.
They could literally just release dlcs where v buys himself time/searches for a cure. Especially having made an enemy of the FIA/made waves in that world. The amount of interested parties in baiting V would exponentially increase.
7:13 Officially it's in Morro Bay (near Santa Barbara, so about half way between SF and LA), however, the actually topography (minus the badlands like desert) most closely mimics Carmel Bay (just outside the SF Bay Area)
I want to see a new protaganist, and if a theory that v’s augments are not lost but just disabled by militech in the fade away ending, we should find and reactivate V
That’d be goated, cuz that’s true his cyberware isn’t gone per say but turned off, so technically it could be turned back on say the Nusa needed him again
Bruh cdpr is the effin goat for what they did to fix cyberpunk, absolutely love that game I cannot say enough how incredible it is one of the greatest games ever made
I wonder if Ciri was able to visit the world of cyberpunk because, in The Witcher 3, there's a scene where she told stories to Geralt about the unbelievable futuristic-like world she visited in her adventures.
Cyberpunk will go down in history as one of the top 10 games off all time If it wasn’t for the hectic release, people would realize how stunning this game is
I hope for two things: stay non-only-USA-style with world building and PLEASE don’t overdo it with the mp implementation. I believe 2077 isn’t dead by now IS because of the missing mp. Let it not influence the (re-)playability, please.
6:45 In the game it's taken place in a dystopia amercan/ Japanese setting a different version of LA. To make it feel like your in an amercan/japanese setting I would research hoe signs ate projected in both countries, how things are placed like the man hole covers and what not.
*I was so psyched for CP2077 (as most of us were). The first playable demo that was shown at the game convention was played on a (new at that time) GTX 1080 Ti. Since then, we have seen the RTX 2080, RTX 3080, RTX 4080, and soon the RTX 5080. This game is still demanding on the newest cards. LoL!!* *I just wish CDPR kept their original promise of: "Each NPC has their own lives and if you follow them, they each do their own thing, whether it is going to their own home, to a store, etc."* *Instead, if you follow the NPCs, they just walk 70 feet, stop, and walk back. Over and over. That was the one feature I really wanted to see.*
That is a little ambitious imo, because if NPCs can go back to their homes that'd mean the whole city is entirely accessible, which I don't believe for a second will happen at least without a lot of cheating and asset reusing
I have a RTX 3090 and it runs fine on ultra settings no DLSS no Ray Tracing, around 90fps but it's on 1080P. It should produce this numbers on like a 3070 level card not on a card that was top of the line when the game came out.
Saying red engine didnt handle dense open world is very untrue. Red engine handled it really well. CDPR and Epic even said that their partnership will lead to improvement of UE in this regard, because UE is way worse at this stuff
I love that cyberpunk adds what were once mods into their game to help make it better. They use idea from the community and Actually listen to its fan base to develop and change 2077 so I'm hoping they keep with that
400 hours in CP2077. Absolutely loved the game and Phantom Liberty! Took a couple months break and need to jump back in for another play through. Gorgeous game on 4k Ultra!
Polaris is also a constellation and Sirius is a star, so I think it's just a project naming scheme. I highly doubt that it'll even be called Orion, let alone be related to it.
First person is more than fine and I'm happy that it is the main prespective, for vehicles it is good to have 3rd person because they fucking left out any mirror or anything that would help you drive normaly.
A game studio making a hyped game turn to garbage isn't the problem. The fact that this studio not only made it right, but went on to make it better than anyone could've ever imagined has earned my respect and trust with a sequel. Given that most triple A companies now tell their gamers to "eat shit" or that we are "racist and/or sexist", I'd rather give my hard earned money to CDPR than Activision, Ubisoft or EA.
Look, Im an American and I can see the merit in Americanizing a little more, but not too much, there is still pleanty about the game that indicates where its at. I liked the meshing of global cultures, like they did in BladeRunner and other cyberpunk stories. It takes place in the USA but its an alternate timeline where Russia is still a union and other asian cultures have saturated the world... I love that about it. It gives it an otherworldly vibe. If I wanted to see an American dystopia I would go take a walk.
Cyberpunk is a tabletop role-playing game in the dystopian science fiction genre, written by Mike Pondsmith and first published by R. Talsorian Games in 1988. It is typically referred to by its second or fourth edition names, Cyberpunk 2020 and Cyberpunk Red, in order to distinguish it from the cyberpunk genre after which it is named.
13:29 id rather have V as side character or something like that. I think since there isnt a canon ending V wont appear in the sequel but maybe some more interesting information about him.
8:50 I think a great point to note with GTA using los santos more than once is there were multiple games inbetween with different maps, as well as los santos feeling not just slightly but completely different from GTA San Andreas to GTA 5
Even tho it was buggy at launch i still played it and loved the story. I gave it time to be fixed and played again and fell in love with it and the DLC. I can't wait for the second. one.
what i really want to see explored in the cyberpunk universe is the moon and space exploration. the concept just seems sick, + when was the last time you saw a game that took place on the moon.
As a life long cyberpunk 2020 i had a decade to measure my expectations for the 2077 i was super happy with launch now i can be open about how dope cyberpunk is, only thing i wanted was server based multiplayer like gta online with radiant gig to run with my chooms, i knee it was pie in the sky but man heres hoping for the future
Had the game on pre order when it came out. Same with the dlc. Played with the first bugs. I have no complaints about the game it was great and still is
You’d assume they would do 3 years of development on the actual game, then extra 2 years for touchups like whether or not they do multiplayer, seeing they already completed the research and development phase will get it in 5 years or less, as long as there are no problems.
I think Orion will be about Matrix style netrunner/operators who travel back and forth between the blackwall and reality, for the purpose of trying to recover old war technologies. The good guys are hunting malicious actors trying to find nuclear codes or something, and inadvertently releasing malicious Ai passed the blackwall. The antagonists are trying to create another alternate, but unregulated, network within the blackwall. Protected from malicious Ai, which acts as a defensive barrier, a Cell of threat actors performs Cyber crimes using unpatchable 0 Day exploits or something. in Orion you choose to help the New internet form and defend itself against Ai. Or you help militech infiltrate the black wall like Neo in the matrix. That's my prediction!
Since its a sequel it might be NC but just in the future. It brings the iconic back but also the ability for the developers to fix undone areas and make it more explorable.
I just built my first PC in years because there were a few games I wanted on PC instead of my Xbox. Cyberpunk being one of them. I’m on day 4 of playing it and I love it

After playing Phantom Liberty, it feels like Cyberpunk needs about 2 more yearly DLCs. The game isn't getting old anytime soon and that DLC was miraculous.
Apparently, the dev kit is just too hard to work with. They are moving on to Orion just so they can avoid working around the challenges of Redkit.

@@Vase94 yeah, but american games suck even after years or they never even get a fix and they abandon them.
I played with Cyberpunk when it released it sucked ass but I gave it a chanche now and it is good, even though I experience in the gameplay that there was so much more content that was cut.
I also Waited for Dying light 2 at released it sucked too, but now it is good, not as good as the first one but it is good.
And also This is why I love Piracy at release, you can have a try at it because there are no demo for games anymore, but after a year or two you can get it cheaper and probably in a state it should come out in the first place.
One thing I love about starting games super late is not having a rocky history to be jaded by. I recently played Cyberpunk 2077 for the first time and loved everything about it, and because I waited I only know the game to be absolutely amazing. Just had a very similar experience with Darktide too. Really excited for whatever CDPR has cooking now, but I definitely won't be pre-ordering though.
Cyberpunk is the greatest game of all time
NOT NECESSARILY its your opinion
@@dranzerjetli5126it is a fantastic game now though mate
It’s great and I love it, it was the greatest game to play, for the first time
@dranzerjetli5126 An opinion that a majority of players who have played Cyberpunk + Phantom Liberty hold.
Greatest story in game of all time not greatest game
I would love the wall running and flying cars in the next one
I want to be able to climb with mantis blades like we were promised
My biggest fears were basically confirmed by who was being mentioned as being brought on to the project. Basically everyone you mentioned as being added, are or were majorly part of games that pushed massive monetization tactics. This is what I am terrified of and these additions only make my fears worse.
Monetizing a CDPR game will never happen…you obviously don’t know CDPR does things. Mark these words: it’ll will not happen.
@@Vandetta333 And prior to Cyberpunk 2077, they always said they would never release a game til its ready. They have shareholders, and shareholders only care about the profits. PERIOD!
Project Orion could be either arasaka selling Vs engram to the Orion team, or Orion breaking her out on purpose or accident trying to rescue someone else's engram. That's a good reason to have v start from level one with a new body. And being an engram could allow v to access cyberspace to bring in a black wall storyline.
I just hope we get V, and Panam back!!
The world of Cyberpunk is vast. So many stories untold.
Hard pass on multi-player or anything requiring a net connection. I prefer single player and live offgrid out in the boonies.
Just hope it will be on GOG and DRM free
If they would simply do it like with older games, and you can connect peer to peer with a friend, this would solve so many problems, with a game code or just let us connect via steam even, no other 3rd party, which is ruining every game.
I dont want a multiplayer mode anytime in any game
Only multiplayer game I want now is GTA 6 nothing else because of how badly it's been ruined
call of duty single player?
@@LIONGOD I like the campaigns of cod more than the multiplayer.
Same, I don't play multiplayer games anymore, I love my single player experiences
No cap frfr I don’t want it either
I'm sorry, but if you're "still feeling burned" by the launch of Cyberpunk, wtf? There can't REALLY be anyone that feels like that still, right? If so, good lord, get over it.
ngl i think he kind of missed the mark on that, i think there's VERY few people who are still hating on cyberpunk at this point. cpdr made a massive turnaround and i think almost everyone recognizes that. also, the devs were literally bullied into releasing the game early, i would argue it really wasn't their fault for the buggy launch but rather the impatience of the community.
@@imaginify6173 Less the community, more the investors - they kept pushing the release dates, whereas cdpr tried to put the launch back because they knew the game isn't finished. Fans only made fun of them and starting forcing them because they had their release postponed 3 times or so.
@@matteiasm.3618 ah okay, that makes a lot more sense. either way, they were pushed to release a half-baked game which was not at all their fault. if they were given the time they needed the release would've been much closer to what we have now i'd assume
@@imaginify6173 yea probably, still unused areas of the map remaining which is a bit sad
Anyone that hasn't played it since launch is seriously missing out. Its such a good game.
I agree now with phantom liberty its a different game from launch(and a great change)
I played through the buggy beginnings and still loved the game. I can only imagine how awesome Orion is gonna be.
CDPR made my absolute max favorite game ever. Period. Cyberpunk is my number one..
Anyone saying they'll never support them again for..what, a rocky launch? That wasn't even half as bad as a Bethesda launch? I'd seriously doubt that they ever really did support CdProjektRed to begin with. People just like to talk in hyperbole. "I played half a Witcher game before! They owe me!"pfft. Favorite game ever.
FACTS.
They released a game that flat out did not work in many cases. To the point that Sony gave refunds for digital purchases for the first time ever. To say that it was a rocky launch is a massive understatement. They've more than redeemed themselves in my eyes, though, with the improvements made after the fact.
@guska5523 and yet I didn't experience any of that, playing on PC, with my setting maxed. Yes, that is literally only my experience, but I guarantee, I am not the only one.
But they have absolutely gone above and beyond, and I'd say Phantom Liberty was just the evolution the game needed
@@guska5523 It was only a rocky launch on ps4, I played it first day on pc and had no issues.
Good to hear I just finished cyberpunk for the first time last week doing a replay for phantom liberty now . Love the game , glad to hear a sequel should be coming .
I played it since launch and I consider one of my favorite games of all time. I can't get enough of this game so I am super excited for another one.
Love this game! I played through probably 7 times and plan to keep playing! It’s my go to game if I’m in that “what to play” type mood!
I can't wait for Orion. I came to Cyberpunk after PL and 2.0 had already released and fell in love with it immediately. I've never spent that much time on a game all at once. 270 hours flew by like it was nothing.
Cyberpunk is one of the masterpieces in gaming that everyone should play. Launch was awful but the game is in my top 10 now. I'm sure they've learned their lesson and im excited for the new game
Would have been better if they actually made the game what they advertised there's so many features that aren't in the game even now
@@crossdaboss8914 and locations
This was a brillant game...even with the bugs at release, I could see the vision so overlooked the glitches...replayed it when the update and confirmed what I knew....the devs for this game need more recognition ... thank you all involved making cyberpunk
I love how the majority of cyberpunk videos all at a “meet hanako at embers” point
7:16 No it did not take place in LA, it takes place in Night City, geographically it is a coastal city near modern day Monteray, and was a "designer" city built by Richard Night, who was murdered during construction and thus they named the city after him. LA still exists in setting and is the capitol city of the state of Southern California.
Jep, it's grown from Watsonville, california.
It is a distinctly 80s American game, setting, and genre. The punk energy of the 80s and the punk energy of today are incredibly not the same. My despair for Orion is high, and my hopes are low.
7:10 not sure cyberpunk 2077 took place in LA.
It doesn't. It's in California tho, between LA and San Francisco..
It's San diego
@@kristiankopera Yup, in Morro Bay - a tiny retirement town with a good seafood place. You know how it is, the developers move in to a tiny undiscovered community and then it's all downhill from there...
Correct, it's in Morro Bay, which is over 200 miles north of LA.
I really hope Orion has more customization.. like bionic limbs and more cybernetics and drip..
with american PC authors im scared we will get more political agendas and nothing more.
I've played through Cyberpunk like 6 or 7 times now and I love it. It's def one of my all time favourites. I will for sure be buying the sequel; I just hope they take the time to get it right on launch this time.
Cyberpunk sequel??? Here take my money, take all of it.... 😁
LET ME PUT THE MONEY IN THE BAG
No. You saw what happened with 2077, be patient lol
Liked and subscribed sir! Long live Cyberpunk!
I actually wanted more DLC content, the game still feels fresh, its drop dead gorgeous graphics and lighting is a treat to stare at! I want more for this game, more fixes/polish perhaps, surely more DLC content!!
UNREAL means UEVR ready means hopefully they'll design more advanced cyberware and hacking experiences to really shine from a vr perspective
If we have the same team behind Phantom Liberty at the helm then I am confident the sequel will be extraordinary. My personal desire however is that they continue the story of V and Johnny. There were so many questions left unanswered by most of the endings of the game. Most particularly the Johnny-Rouge/Johnny suicide mission ending. Working with the ever so cryptic Mr. Blue Eyes left us with a massive cliffhanger. There is such rich potential in the lore of the black wall and rouge AI’s and the game gave us such an air of fear and mystery behind it. That and grumbling of another corporate war… It would provide an excellent backdrop for a sequel with V and possibly Johnny. Mr Blue eyes and his mysterious background (it’s somewhat alluded that he’s a rouge AI manipulating humanity) and connections that could possibly help V survive the relic without compromising his life or competence as a merc. It would be a perfect narrative backdrop for a sequel, navigating the intrigue and uncertainty of another cooperate war as you work for Mr Blue Eyes in exchange for a cure and slowly uncover who he truly is learning more about what lies behind the blackwall.
A narrative such as this would allow the writers to retain the same magic which originally made the V and Johnny dynamic such a great character duo and pave way for much more exciting themes in which made Phantom Liberty such an exceptional story. I don’t want to see V and Johnny’s story end just after one game. I see so much potential continuing it forward as a trilogy, similar to what CDPR did with Geralt of Rivia in this Witcher series.
I'm a bit worried about cdpr future games after I saw their recent push for new hiring guidelines
Same. Hopefully seeing the love Ubisoft and Bethesda are getting for such decisions will scare them and change their minds.
Gonna play more Cyberpunk 2077. It's truly amazing.
I wish they would keep making DLCs for Cyberpunk 2077. Somehow V survives and comes back, maybe in 2080?
They could literally just release dlcs where v buys himself time/searches for a cure.
Especially having made an enemy of the FIA/made waves in that world. The amount of interested parties in baiting V would exponentially increase.
V survives in one or more endings depending what you do.
@@joncarr5545 Yea, but V louses everything and is left so weak they basically become a low level NPC.
@@joncarr5545 "surviving the ending " and "surviving after the ending" are two different things.
@@bigwhitehound He can also become an Engram
7:13 Officially it's in Morro Bay (near Santa Barbara, so about half way between SF and LA), however, the actually topography (minus the badlands like desert) most closely mimics Carmel Bay (just outside the SF Bay Area)
I want to see a new protaganist, and if a theory that v’s augments are not lost but just disabled by militech in the fade away ending, we should find and reactivate V
That’d be goated, cuz that’s true his cyberware isn’t gone per say but turned off, so technically it could be turned back on say the Nusa needed him again
Bro would be like the Hulk..massive power surge out of nowhere and just like that his power and strength from cyberware comes back
Bruh cdpr is the effin goat for what they did to fix cyberpunk, absolutely love that game I cannot say enough how incredible it is one of the greatest games ever made
I wonder if Ciri was able to visit the world of cyberpunk because, in The Witcher 3, there's a scene where she told stories to Geralt about the unbelievable futuristic-like world she visited in her adventures.
I’m pretty sure that’s what was implied is her statement, there is a small chance Ciri has met V.
if she visited future why she didnt bring a switch back??
its just an easter egg
I just want to see Songbird again. I miss her already.
I dont like hee
Best game imo
Deff one of the goats!
The story was beautiful I hope they bring V and Panam back or at least keep them together in the next game if they are mentioned
Cyberpunk will go down in history as one of the top 10 games off all time
If it wasn’t for the hectic release, people would realize how stunning this game is
Favorite game ever. I played some 400 hrs and didnt get bored just distracted
Dear CDPR, scrap The Witcher and full steam ahead on Cyberpunk plz
hold on now LOL I've been looking forward to a new witcher game for YEARS
100% agreed. Cyberpunk >>> The Witcher.
Even From has Armored Core as financial backup...
No
No chance they make to much money from witcher mate
This game in VR is just insane
All I really want is new game plus from 2077. It would be nice to replay the story and dlc again. I’m just saying
Technically you can, just start another save file, however I presume that you mean to retain everything you own into this story
There is a mod that allows this on PC. Not perfect but pretty good.
I always liked cdpr games for feeling different. I attribute it mostly to being made in a non anglo country. I hope they can retain it.
No sweetbaby inc. and they are good
I hope for two things: stay non-only-USA-style with world building and PLEASE don’t overdo it with the mp implementation. I believe 2077 isn’t dead by now IS because of the missing mp. Let it not influence the (re-)playability, please.
It’s going to bomb cause the developers are going to make a game for modern audiences. They will be shocked when it doesn’t do well.
6:45 In the game it's taken place in a dystopia amercan/ Japanese setting a different version of LA. To make it feel like your in an amercan/japanese setting I would research hoe signs ate projected in both countries, how things are placed like the man hole covers and what not.
*I was so psyched for CP2077 (as most of us were). The first playable demo that was shown at the game convention was played on a (new at that time) GTX 1080 Ti. Since then, we have seen the RTX 2080, RTX 3080, RTX 4080, and soon the RTX 5080. This game is still demanding on the newest cards. LoL!!*
*I just wish CDPR kept their original promise of: "Each NPC has their own lives and if you follow them, they each do their own thing, whether it is going to their own home, to a store, etc."*
*Instead, if you follow the NPCs, they just walk 70 feet, stop, and walk back. Over and over. That was the one feature I really wanted to see.*
YUUP deff think the AI will be a much bigger focus in the sequel
That is a little ambitious imo, because if NPCs can go back to their homes that'd mean the whole city is entirely accessible, which I don't believe for a second will happen at least without a lot of cheating and asset reusing
@@WesNemo Each npc having their own lives is unrealistic.
@@KhanBell-x3q im pretty sure they came close in rdr 2
I have a RTX 3090 and it runs fine on ultra settings no DLSS no Ray Tracing, around 90fps but it's on 1080P.
It should produce this numbers on like a 3070 level card not on a card that was top of the line when the game came out.
Saying red engine didnt handle dense open world is very untrue. Red engine handled it really well. CDPR and Epic even said that their partnership will lead to improvement of UE in this regard, because UE is way worse at this stuff
Pls not US and Canadian developers... we know where its going...
I love that cyberpunk adds what were once mods into their game to help make it better. They use idea from the community and Actually listen to its fan base to develop and change 2077 so I'm hoping they keep with that
what's this ? 4:46
It’s the PS5 demo for new lighting tech in Unreal Engine 5
Immediately recognizable as more immersive than cyberpunk
400 hours in CP2077. Absolutely loved the game and Phantom Liberty!
Took a couple months break and need to jump back in for another play through. Gorgeous game on 4k Ultra!
orion is also a constellation and a brand for weightlifting equipment
True! We goin to space in Cyberpunk Orion!?
@@WesNemo 😃
also a legendary sniper in borderlands 1
Polaris is also a constellation and Sirius is a star, so I think it's just a project naming scheme. I highly doubt that it'll even be called Orion, let alone be related to it.
There aren't a lot of skeptics in 2024
Yeah, this guy sounds way out of touch
The Cyberpunk 2077 Remaster 20 years from now gonna be lit 🔥🔥🔥
A 3rd person camera toggle for exploring & 1st person for cutscenes & combat.
No first person works great.
@@aneural Skyrim has both. Fallout has both. They can do both. I think we can all agree that the option would be nice.
First person is more than fine and I'm happy that it is the main prespective, for vehicles it is good to have 3rd person because they fucking left out any mirror or anything that would help you drive normaly.
@@Prodromata No the animations in first person would suck then. Cyberpunk 2077 is great because of the first person element maximizing immersion.
A game studio making a hyped game turn to garbage isn't the problem. The fact that this studio not only made it right, but went on to make it better than anyone could've ever imagined has earned my respect and trust with a sequel. Given that most triple A companies now tell their gamers to "eat shit" or that we are "racist and/or sexist", I'd rather give my hard earned money to CDPR than Activision, Ubisoft or EA.
I think they can blow everyone away if they make the protagonist Ciri
OH for The Witcher 3? Deff!
Look, Im an American and I can see the merit in Americanizing a little more, but not too much, there is still pleanty about the game that indicates where its at. I liked the meshing of global cultures, like they did in BladeRunner and other cyberpunk stories. It takes place in the USA but its an alternate timeline where Russia is still a union and other asian cultures have saturated the world... I love that about it. It gives it an otherworldly vibe. If I wanted to see an American dystopia I would go take a walk.
they should skip witcher and just focus on cyberpunk 2, and they should just skip multiplayer altogether
Cyberpunk is a tabletop role-playing game in the dystopian science fiction genre, written by Mike Pondsmith and first published by R. Talsorian Games in 1988. It is typically referred to by its second or fourth edition names, Cyberpunk 2020 and Cyberpunk Red, in order to distinguish it from the cyberpunk genre after which it is named.
CDPR have been infected by sweet baby , I don't hold out much hope for Orion or the new Witcher.
I’m downloading cyberpunk and the dlc now to finally play
3rd
How we doing Samuel?!
13:29 id rather have V as side character or something like that. I think since there isnt a canon ending V wont appear in the sequel but maybe some more interesting information about him.
what mod is used at 4:25 to make the HUD look cleaner?
8:50 I think a great point to note with GTA using los santos more than once is there were multiple games inbetween with different maps, as well as los santos feeling not just slightly but completely different from GTA San Andreas to GTA 5
Even tho it was buggy at launch i still played it and loved the story. I gave it time to be fixed and played again and fell in love with it and the DLC. I can't wait for the second. one.
what i really want to see explored in the cyberpunk universe is the moon and space exploration. the concept just seems sick, + when was the last time you saw a game that took place on the moon.
As a life long cyberpunk 2020 i had a decade to measure my expectations for the 2077 i was super happy with launch now i can be open about how dope cyberpunk is, only thing i wanted was server based multiplayer like gta online with radiant gig to run with my chooms, i knee it was pie in the sky but man heres hoping for the future
Had the game on pre order when it came out. Same with the dlc. Played with the first bugs. I have no complaints about the game it was great and still is
You’d assume they would do 3 years of development on the actual game, then extra 2 years for touchups like whether or not they do multiplayer, seeing they already completed the research and development phase will get it in 5 years or less, as long as there are no problems.
I think Orion will be about Matrix style netrunner/operators who travel back and forth between the blackwall and reality, for the purpose of trying to recover old war technologies. The good guys are hunting malicious actors trying to find nuclear codes or something, and inadvertently releasing malicious Ai passed the blackwall. The antagonists are trying to create another alternate, but unregulated, network within the blackwall. Protected from malicious Ai, which acts as a defensive barrier, a Cell of threat actors performs Cyber crimes using unpatchable 0 Day exploits or something.
in Orion you choose to help the New internet form and defend itself against Ai. Or you help militech infiltrate the black wall like Neo in the matrix. That's my prediction!
i literally cannot wait to see how it will look, just as i will get a better PC to fully enjoy PL and the classic story line and now Orion.
You mentioned that the map could get boring. But depending on the time period, they could make the map completely different.
Since its a sequel it might be NC but just in the future. It brings the iconic back but also the ability for the developers to fix undone areas and make it more explorable.
This game is amazing and when they brought the dlc they also made the whole game like a brand new game with all the new things you can do
Hope it has an optional 3rd person mode.
Im hyped for it but definitely will wait for reviews
I just built my first PC in years because there were a few games I wanted on PC instead of my Xbox. Cyberpunk being one of them. I’m on day 4 of playing it and I love it
