Pinning this in advance as I'll be AFK for the weekend: Fallout London review/impressions early next week. See you then and have a great weekend!
Have a solid weekend, Matty! ✌
As always, you are late to the stories
@@RangoSledgeyou’re trash
@@RangoSledgeyou’d be surprised, but most people don’t sit on RUclips 24/7, refreshing the page every minute
Stay safe matty
Cyberpunk has become my favorite game world as of recent.
same, it's just incredible. they set the bar so high that every other game seems bland and empty to me now.
same for me. I find it to be a phenomenal game experience. The lore especially. Been reading a lot on Bartmoss and Spider-Murphy. Really well written stuff by Pondsmith.
Same, i actually put off playing it at all for a long time and only recently started it holy hell im hooked.
@@chrissabbath4551The only other open world game I can play these days is GTA IV and Cyberpunk borrowed a lot of good ideas from that game 💯
@yourbarber6732 are you me?
A game for fans of Netflix's Witcher?
Talk about a tiny target group.
I keep forgetting that show even exists until I see comments like this haha. Season 1 was ok, but I didn’t even bother watching season 2
Aww hell no... I don't like the ugly Triss
@@RiderZer0yeah they just focused too much on other characters and it’s literally called the Witcher. Basically took away all of the smaller nuanced details of Geralt in order to make a modern fantasy show. Really screwed the pooch on that one
The witcher but bad, what's not to love?
@@marcusgreen8843to be fair, they were meant to be based more on the books, at least the first season was and then they went conpletely off the rails with the seasons that followed which is why Henry walked. And Geralt is not the main character of the book series, he is a supporting character to Ciri who is the special child that the powerful are trying to get their hands on and use for their own means. The books has very little witchering going on in them.
Cyberpunk almost had DLC set on the moon. 🌙 I really hope CDPR include that in Cyberpunk 2!
They are 🔥 Orion is literally a constellation
I think Cyberpunk 2 will try its best to release with a ton of content in a polished state, so we can dream
@@neoshenlong Also probably going to release in 2030 or some shit lol
@@Arms2and then only actually be good and playable in 2031
12:05 CDPR is working with Epic Games on Unreal Engine 5 and The Witcher 4. So Epic Games gives them the tools they needed. CDPR announced that partnership when they announced The Witcher 4 in 2022.
13:19 The Witcher 4 (Poland) and Cyberpunk 2 (NA) will share the same technology. They will not move The Witcher 4 devs to Cyberpunk 2. They will move to The Witcher 5. CDPR announced parallel development in 2022. NA studios (Vancouver and Boston) will work on Cyberpunk stuff. Poland studios will work on The Witcher and the new IP Hadar.
You reported both things in 2022 and now you forgot them again 😅
Gotta make videos somehow 😂
They only moved to Unreal after hackers ransomed the source code for their RED engine.
@@sinthasizah6649Thats just not true. They switched to UE to speed up development (their own words). All the old guard that worked on Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk has left the company so the new workers would need to spend valuable development time to learn to work on the RED Engine otherwise.
@@Ravix0fFourHorn Some devs left the studio after cyberpunk but majority of the old devs are still at the studio working on the W4. Tired of this BS that "everybody left".
@@Ravix0fFourHorn yeah and why did they need to speed it up? Because they lost progress from the source code theft! Plus that code was now worthless, since they weren't paying the ransom so the hackers released the source code online.
Genuinely so excited about the future of CDPR
Same
Me too
Same honestly, although I would prefer if they did more with CP2077’s universe because I have no clue where they could take The Witcher other than the past. And will that be more interesting than the decades-long story of The Last Wish -> Blood & Wine? I’d say that would be very unlikely.
Love your videos, you’re one of my go to for anything Mass effect or dragon age news 😊
Same
People overfetishize engines. You can make an engine do almost anything if you dedicate enough resources and time. The question when switching engines is is that investment worth it
I do think UE5 has advantage on graphics and that sells most of the time
Apart from the creation engine it seems 😂
You answer it yourself. Why bother working linger and harder with a not so good one,instead go with the best,prob unreal ,and save time so you can work in the actual gameplay itself.
@FrankRiverfr It has an advantage pretty much across the board honestly. And if more developers migrate to it it will be good for gaming since then there will be a large amount of people who know the engine well
Yes, but companies don't have infinite resources or time.
A Witcher remake made for Netflix's Witcher fans, and ever dwindling audience for a dead shortned (cancelled) show... Great... Those 12 people in the modern audience are going to love it.
Still absolutely blows away anything from Rockstar. So at least we agree on something. 😊GTA & RDR are junk compared to Witcher & Cyberpunk.
I assume it was maybe in the contract with Netflix to do the game for them.
Project Sirius is not the remake, its the spinoff multiplayer game. Project Canis Majoris is the Witcher 1 Remake. which would be coming after witcher 4 and built on its technology/framework.
@@jbusleybro thought we were gonna agree
What’s up Matty, appreciate all your work over these years
Currently replaying Witcher 3 and did my 3rd playthrough of Cyberpunk. Say what you will but they make some of the greatest games ever! Can’t wait for Witcher 4!
@@MichaelOdendaal what build are you doing in 2077? What origin?
@@Hoppelitecurrently doing my first play through of Cyberpunk 2077. What builds do you recommend?
@@Mako-zs2utfinishing my third playthrough. I like playing as a netrunner/close range the most. Drop some daemons on the enemies like optic reboot, weapon glitches etc, throw a smoke grenade it and jump them with a katana, shotgun, or any other weapon you like. Honestly though, lately I’ve been having great fun beating the shit out of them gonks with a dildo 😂 feels so disrespectful to get your ass beaten by a dude with a dildo, but that’s what these gonks deserve
@@Mako-zs2ut I did a Nomad cyberware and SMG/AR/Katana build. So I invested points primarily in Reflex (for SMG and katana) and Technical (for cyberware). Then I invested points into both and focused on getting as much cyberware as possible. Sandvestian operating system for slow time makes the katana so much fun to use. You can chop down entire crowds of dudes before they even get a shot off. It’s actually good for stealth as well.
@@Mako-zs2uti did a sandevestan run and gun pistol and melee build
So glad he is covering this.... Cuz cyberpunk has become a Skyrim and fallout game for me. I just can't stop playing it and I keep coming back. I would love for him to talk more about cyberpunk.... 💜
Same for me
Same here! The terrible launch of the game has overshadowed the gem that is Cyberpunk 2077.
Not happy about the engine switch. CDPR became less independent and now has to (partly) rely on Epic. Then there are the engine licensing fees that reduce the revenue and may lead them to take less risks with their future games. UE also has some limits (rendering, handling of interactive objects) that make many games look and feel similar. Its bad when you recognize at first glance a game is made with UE or Unity. Yes maintaining your own modern in-house engine costs money but we need more diversity in game engines to have competition and push the envelope of what is possible.
Cyberpunk is one of the greatest achievements in gaming. It is an absolute enigma.
Well they can keep their woke and multiplayer crap for cyberpunk then it kinda belong there but not the Witcher and it never will.
@@jurgennolte7577 mate what shit are u talking about?
@@Jako101 you don't want the woke in there as well huh got it.
@@jurgennolte7577yeah i think Witcher should continue focusing it’s setting around a European backdrop. I hope they don’t include this forced diversity that’s been plaguing media this past decade.
@@Jako101bro i know right. Homies add woke and drop the mic 😂
I’m going to miss the Red Engine as well. I just put over 100 hours into my very first playthrough of Cyberpunk and loved it. Played it on my PC and it looked amazing. I just don’t understand how you put so much work into an engine like that, then abandon it after crossing the goal line with it. I know CDPR are working closely with Epic to develop Unreal 5 even more, so no doubt it will look amazing, but they are leaving Red Engine on a high note. I guess that’s good?
Well red engine didn't have the juice to do what they needed. Cyberpunk would've been better on unreal they pushed red engine past it's limits for that game. And realized they couldn't really push it any further than that which won't work in the future if they want to stay on top of things
@@plack_benis382 well at least we all know between CDPR’s talent and the power of Unreal 5 their next batch of games should look amazing. I just hope they fix Unreal’s studder issues. I have faith in them never making the mistake they did with Cyberpunk again.
Day 1 Cyberpunk players would not miss the engine at all. good riddance. Studios like Bethesda and their stubbornness to use outdated engines leads to terrible games (Starfield).
@@drgonzo123 i would rather have fixable stuters than games with outdated tech.
Im not gonna lie im hyped for both the witcher 4 and cyberpunk 2. Ill probably not preorder but im confident cdpr will make whatever game the release play right , eventually.
Can’t wait for Witcher 4 , replayed Witcher 3 recently and realised how much I missed previously
CDRP is my favorite studio, 2077 and Witcher 3 are two of my favorite games. So stoked for these new projects!
I'm willing to bet that Project Sirius was rebooted because the Witcher show bombed so hard and was then cancelled.
I hope so, cause CDPR has been hiring only activist in recent years, and lets not forget they have embraced ESG/DEI. And every time they speak, its also is a constantly flood of woke red flags. Which channels like these always tend to ignore.
CDPR is what I thought Bethesda would become when I was playing Skyrim back in 2011. The fact Cyberpunk does world building and environmental storytelling much better than Starfield was the final nail in the coffin for me.
I hope we get more things to do in cyberpunk orion. One thing that would be cool is to get a taxi(probably delamain), and do jobs in the city, like a roleplay. Would be so dope. I would literally feel like a person who lives in the city.
And cars customizations, garage, more apartments and houses to buy
Just found your channel, love the content. I'll be following for Witcher4 and cyberpunk 2 news, keep up the great work.
Part of what made CDPR games special was the In-House engine. Not a fan of them going to Unreal, not a fan of Halo going to Unreal. But we'll see what happens
I cant wait for the next Cyberpunk, currently playing through 2077 again
I really wish we could have gotten more Cyberpunk content. That game is legendary and all of those buildings could have been occupied with so many more interiors and quest lines.
True. Though I will say in my second playthrough I took my time and there was probably 20 quests I'd never seen due to having to another quest then wait for the quest to activate or doing a gig that leads to another quest. There's more there than I ever realized personally. I do wish there was a second dlc though
I’m 28 now and have been playing since day one. I truly hope we get Cyberpunk Orion in less than a decade. I really don’t want to be 38 by the time the game comes out lol. Please CDPR, give it to us in the next four years or so. 😭🤞🏻
Don't forget about the breach they had, which supposedly had the core of the RED engine, so moving to unreal could also be a security measure for future games
Cyberpunk 2078 better have that online mode they were talking about. I cream thinking about a gta experience in the cyberpunk world. Imagine you get to pick what gang you want to be in (or be a merc) and there is a whole system of upgrades specific to each gang and they all have their own little campaigns. it could even go down to having gang specific weapons/vehicles/body augmentations/tattoos/clothes etc. The pvp could be so sick but balancing the hacking would be the hardest thing to do if I had to guess.
Replacing a proprietary engine for Unreal for tech support is one reason. The other is they may not need to train a new dev.
I can’t wait for the new cyberpunk 🤘🤘🎸
It's been 2 weeks so I can't imagine you're going to see this but yeah they'll be a little bit of a hole for sci-fi RPGs surprised you haven't covered Exodus more That sounds like a Matty game if I've ever heard one the writer of Mass effect one and two director of Kotor wizards of the Coast giving them pretty much a blank check to do what they want every interview and piece of information I've seen out of it shows an immense amount of creativity and most importantly passion
Witcher 3 releasing on switch was a big reason i got thru lockdown in early sobriety. Afraid to finish cyberpunk. Love the news.
Dude same. Switch is where I discovered Witcher 3
Actually cdpr has said they may do more content updates, so all hope isn't lost there. We know at the very least FSR 3.0 is on the way, and I'm personally hoping to see some enhancements to crystal coat. Like keeping the colors permanently, and bringing it to more vehicles.
side note: hairs looking very nice mr matty
Gaming is in a bit of a lull for me right now. So i finally started cyberpunk 2.0. It is so good. A completely different experience. Its a masterpiece. A mass effect 2 level once in a lifetime master craftsman piece of art.
Not sure why this isn't talked about much, but CD Projekt Red is now getting ESG funding. Give the video a watch if your curious.
CD PROJEKT | Deep Dive: Approach to ESG [EN/PL]
Matty if you wanna feel old I started Watching your videos my senior year of high school and now I am feeding my 18 month year old child watching your vids. Much love 😂
The fact that the Witcher 3 came out in 2015 and the Witcher 4 hasn't even entered production yet makes me very sad. This is gonna be a LOOONG gap between 3 and 4.
Nice ❤ Witcher and Cyberpunk news!
Remember, no pre orders
Both cyberpunk and the witcher are amazing games and i LOVED them. Especially the witcher. Can’t wait for the next ones
Keep Netflix out of this if you know what's good for you.
I want to be hyped, but the knowledge of how publicly committed they are to DEI/ESG trash makes me extremely cautious.
All the other news in the world means nothing if its made around those lies.
Snowflake ❄️
Just hope we get to create our own Witcher, ideally as a child where you pick your school and go through the trials.
They could do an 50 year time jump with Witcher 4 and do a reset. After Witcher 3 Geralt can live for another 300 years, Yennifer is going to live for another 1000 years and Ciri is an ageless time travelling multiversal demigod.
So, Matty's 'The Witcher 4 clickbait videos' arc begins.
0:27 DOGGO!
Appreciate you.
Considering the harsh reality that the its sequel will take a minimum of 10 years (if not more) to develop, I think CDPR could’ve given us just one more DLC for Cyberpunk before sending it off….
Fine way to start the weekend!!!
I wish we got a ng+ for cyberpunk
I didn't realize they were doing a witcher remake I'm pumped for it !!!!!! Another great video brother always appreciate how through your vids are.
By the time this new Witcher series of the next ES 6 comes out I will be dead from old age! If we still have electricity and a world by then 🤯
IMO The Witcher Remake and Polaris should have all CDPR's focus instead of the "Netflix joint venture project" 🙄
Great write up, thanks for your thoughts! 🎉
Only a half hour into the upload and there are already tons of comments proudly spewing the most nonsensical takes of all time regarding the Witcher, a series these people apparently say is their favorite lmao.
News flash guys - the books are the original material from which the games work off from. And these books couldn’t be more steeped in leftist ideology/“woke moralism” that you are outspokenly against.
The series isn’t just about sex scenes with sorceresses, it as one big unit of stories, themes, characters, and plotlines was created to deconstruct the racism, classism, sexism, fascism, and general chaos Sapkowski’s region of Eastern Europe was experiencing following the fall of the Soviet Union.
He has gone on record to say that the human and nonhuman conflict was directly inspired by the Serbians committing genocide against the Bosnians. And through that he intentionally provides a primarily female-led story (Ciri takes up most of the novels by far) that simultaneously wishes to take down homophobia by making her a lesbian.
This series has never been “unwoke” or “untouched by DEI”, it was literally created with it in mind.
Halt! You are making far too much sense right now. I'm gonna need you to take it down a notch and let them "own the libs" like their masters want in peace. We're supposed to be divided so we fight each other instead of them. DUH
Fascism is leftism. It was only rebranded right wing in the 1950s by socialist academia with a major PR problem. Learn some history
Leftists were pro slavery, see Democrats, see China, see Russia, see every communist hellscape. Learn history
Who committed eugenics? Leftists
Who freed the slaves? Christian Conservatives
I just want the next Cyberpunk to be more Blade Runner. Bad weather, flying cars, mostly dark and chaotic.
But they work with Sweetbaby inc now. That company's name even sounds like an email of a scammer
Yes, a paedophile scammer
Sounds like an epstien business names.
No... they do not work with Sweetbaby inc. Do not spread misinformation.
They hired a female writer who at one point explained/defended what SBI did on a technical level with every studio they consulted, via Twitter, in order to make it clear that ultimately SBI did not have absolute control over the content created by a studio (which imho is bs as their influence weighs heavy in extortion). But she was never an employee of SBI. She is however an activist who follows DEI and believes firmly that content should all contain inclusive stuff, lgbqt, etc..
She is currently one of the writers on the team. Not the sole head writer on the team.
Second of all, keep in mind Cyberpunk 2077 also had a team of lgbqt+ employees, one of which was the head art director of the game. All those ads you see in the game including the ones on the tv, were directed by that artist. We also had Claire, a trans character. No one said anything then. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Lets not lose hope yet... It's many years away before we'll see any actual development/trailers for the sequel.
Not just that, the studio is overall pozzed. It's over, CP77 was their last good game, mark my words.
@@Choom2077Still sounds utterly dreadful.
The Witcher 1 and 2 remake needs to happen
It's a huge risk abandoning the engine. They have never worked with anything else.
Konami also had a sick engine with Fox and they dropped it.
I doubt it will be that bad for cdpr but still it kinda sucks.
I miss the Fox engine to this day and I know I'll miss red engine rip.
Cyberpunk had a NIGHTMARE launch/year one but CDPR eventually through patches and fixes made Cyberpunk the game it was supposed to be at launch. Hopefully they’ve learned from that and they take their time to work out all the kinks on Cyberpunk 2’s launch because that game DESERVES a smooth launch if it’s as good as 1 is rn.
Knowing how to Netflix witcher turned out, I'm not too enthusiastic about this project cirious and might even be a flop
I was hoping for the remake first, would make more sense I think. I guess we'll have to wait and see!
I hope both are properly finished games and not the nightmare of the cyberpunk release.
cd projekt red is what modern day bethesda should be
Don't believe the Hype and buy games at launch price or buggy state
nice to know my kind will be on my side
CD PROJECT Red is light years ahead of ehat Bethesda is doing. And ai love abethesda games. But it's no comparison narrative wise.
There miles better than bethesda now
My addiction to Cyberpunk is going to put me into rehab. Also, what sucks is that we might not get the sequel until maybe 2028 at the absolute, earliest. Probably 2029 to 2030 makes more sense. Fuck, ill be so old by then!
I wish cyberpunk got a few more dlc’s before c2
I hope we get a beautiful female witcher might be Ciri or another one from what I know we can climb on mountains like in tomb raider with 2 pickaxes
Cyberpunk can't be done, because they still haven't released FSR3. How is that supposed to come out with 0 people working on it?
Did you know that CD Project red actually implemented a "Diversity department?" Basically adding stuff like LGBT characters, overweight characters, etc. That's r4cist af.
I think its due to funding now AAA games need to do it. Diversity is fine for Game like Cyberpunk but a Game Like Kingdom Come 2 it would ruin
For anyone excited about the next Witcher game, I wouldn't be. Witcher 3 is probably my favorite game of all time but any excitement for it whatsoever has literally died. All you have to do is think about the fact that absolutely none of the people that worked on The Witcher 3 still work at the studio anymore and then just a couple months ago they hired this lady that likes to push woke narratives in games to be the narrative director for one of their biggest new games. There's absolutely no way The Witcher 4 can be good, not with them making calls like that. I hate to say it The Witcher 4 is going to be full of identity politics and you will probably be able to pick your pronouns at the start of the game 😔🤬
Why is the guy from ltt that does the apple reviews talking about the Witcher? ❤
Witcher 3 is my favorite game ever, so I'm very excited for The Witcher 1 Remake
So Wither 4 will be released on PS 5. Cyberpunk 2 is probably reserved to be on PS 6.
So all i can take from this, going from past experience and the trend of game releases...... When CDPR announce the release date for The W4, it will basically be complete and worth playing 18 months after release lol
I played Cyberpunk for 8 full playthroughs.
And i loved it.
But, if the next one doesn't have either NG+ OR co-op MP, I think I'm gonna pass.
I love the game and franchise. I’ve been playing since day one and have like 2k hours in it. I really wish we got a co-op experience with it. It’d be amazing.
Why i feel im not exciting for the witcher 4 although the witcher 3 is the greatest of all time for me 😢😢
Please don't be in 1st person, Witcher 4. Please don't be in 1st person. Please don't be in 1st person
I’m a massive fan of both franchises but I’d really prefer cyberpunk Orion first. Witcher 3 had a great ending and doesn’t really need another game imo.
CDPR learn nothing from the cyberpunk disaster..
Just update Cyberpunk's year for the next installment: x2089
Im expecting a third person option for cyberpunk
RUclips comments don't work. If Matty replies to this, my mind will be changed.
Positive comments incoming.
Please leave an uplifting comment down below.
Cant wait to play these games when im 70
Personally, I don't want to hear about a CD Project red game until the year it's going to be released. Don't need a trailer for a game 7 years out.
Is there any more news on Gears E-Day?
Hey punk, it’s time to see CD project red about cyberpunk 2!
Why the engine switch? I think it comes down to turnover & training. CDPR had a large turnover of employees during Cyberpunk2077, this caused the problem of having to train new people on Red Engine continually until they finished. With a switch to the Unreal they will have a much larger pool of people who are already skilled in it use, making training time much reduced. So instead of having to learn the quirks of the Red Engine, they now just need to learn the tools which CDPR created for Unreal. I believe this is the largest factor, otherwise they would have stuck with Red Engine for their future games because of how built out it is. With this CDPR will also greatly reduce the number of people dedicated to engine & will be able to shift those people to working on the tools they need. A lot of given and take, but I think in the end they figured the benefits of moving over in total outweighed keeping it all in house. We do not know exactly how the Epic deal was setup also, they could have some very favorable deal setup with the switch as well.
always have people working on the next cyberpunk so it will be a masterpiece before very glitchy
I get switching to UE for Witcher4 but i think they should keep RedEngine for CP77 sequel
So Cyberpunk is finished. Finally time to buy it when base game & PL is 75% off on steam then. Been waiting for the full release for 6 years now, so can probably wait for the steam winter sale a few more months.
Will be worth the wait! Epic game!
Bless your patience 🙏
Matty, everytime I click on your videos I see a Kamala Harris campaign ad. I know you’re probably a dem and voting for her, but can you tone down the political ads on your videos? I really don’t care who you’re voting for. I just want to hear about gaming. Thanks.
Snowflake
Maybe they can patch the ps5 version of the Witcher 3. There is a foliage pop-in bug which they still haven't fixed😡
Cyberpunk 2 is probably coming out in 2033. It's crazy to think that toddlers at the peak of CP2077's hype will be edgy teenagers by the time the next game comes out.
Thanks for update Matty! Are you planning on making a video on Fallout London soon?
Never played Witcher 1 or 2, but I did played Witcher 3. I hope they at least remake or remaster 1 and 2!!
Lol it's kinda funny how BGS gets criticism for not moving on from the Creation Engine, but CDPR is getting criticism for moving on from their Red Engine
Just remember management of the actual company didn’t change.
These are the same ppl that rushed cyberpunk. Now they know even rushed it’ll sell millions and ppl will wait while they fix it followed up by showering them with rewards and praise once fixed.
I’d be a little more worried about Witcher 4.
Awesome, I still never played Witcher 3 so i need to get on that. Cyberpunk i was looking forward to but had been burned with too many games previously and recently before release. That i knew bettter i waited to see reviews more gameplay. And was so glad that i did. This year i bought Cyberpunk 2077 with Phantom Liberty and Wow. Such a great game and im glad it slowly became something great that tons of people now enjoy. Obviously it would have been ideal to be good on launch. I will be skeptical with any of their games in the future however. I will definitely wait to see if the game turned out good before buying it.
Play TW3 on Death Note. Trust me, it will be worth it. Having a little challenge to the combat adds a lot to the game. The other game modes are too easy even for a relatively inexperienced gamer.
You’re in for a treat. TW3 is seen as one of the greatest games of all time for a good reason.
