I've said it before, this is probably going to be the most disappointing game of 2020, and also the best game of 2020. That's how crazy the hype has gotten.
People are so stupid thinking its the best game, no doubt it will be a good game, but im gonna wait til it goes cheap, I will enjoy this game regardless as im not one of the fools overhyping it. Thats the basic rule, always go into something without hype
My main issue is all the reviews going. "It crashes. It softblocks itself. It has a millions bugs and glitches. It can't run stable on a 3080. 10/10 though."
Most of them are going to say Cyberpunk 2077 will need a 16-core CPU to run the game. We are going to reply back well duh what did you expect from a game that requires an RTX card to have most of its features turn on?
It's just surprising that they are not taking into account the day 1 patch into this. CDPR did a day 0 one and it fixed several issues for the people who had the game early so I can only imagine what the next update on release will do.
@@guybrushthreepwood8174 I don't think that's the reason he didn't get one, but I understand how you're feeling. I like Karak's channel and I am so hyped for Cyberpunk, as well.
@@IAmWhiteEagle Who hurt you? "Gamestops review was perfect" based off what? Your preconceived opinion? You sound like a loser that finds self gratification in pointless things. If the game sucks it sucks if it doesn't it doesn't dont go praising one review over another because it suits your narrative.
@@NoirSoldats Agree make a damn game where you pay for the game, mini map does not show your magical position unless you use a magical sound suppressor. After buying and playing Cold War, I should dispute the charge with my CC. Complete waste of money. If I bought physical item from a store it would have been returned. Software should be regulated and little effort should be awarded with little money.
I personally like bugs lol just not the ones that destroy your save file or cause you to restart the game. But like the funny and random ones are fine with me.....we play games for entertainment anyways lol
Yessir. Witcher 3 now compared to Witcher 3 at launch are like night and day. What I’m gathering from the reviews is that the game itself (story, characters, scope, setting, depth) is great BUT bugs make it harder to enjoy. Bugs can be fixed over time, but what you can’t fix is a games entire core after it’s been released. Once this game is properly patched and polished for next gen systems as well as some nice DLC I think it will be a true masterpiece.
ill never get over how days gone got shitted on for the tech and bug issues that cyberpunk has and no one is allowed to review the console versions...red flags all over for this one
The fact that a 2060 can't hold a steady 60 FPS on 1080p MEDIUM is also a huge red flag. Their recommended specs had the 2060 listed for 1440p Ultra. LMAO at that, not even the 2080 ti is holding 60 FPS on 1440p ultra.
Games like Days Gone were badly criticized by its bugs. I think reviewers have to make up their minds. You either take in consideration the bugs for the scores or you don’t.
The problem is their relationship and/or opinion of the developers get in the way. Days Gone got tore apart. Anything by Ubisoft, 2K Sports, EA all get torn apart. And rightly so in my opinion, if a game has a tonne of bugs they should hit the review score and be a large part of the review. For instance - I'm really enjoying Watch Dogs Legion on Series X but there is a bug which occasionally fails to save the game, and you lose your progress. That type of thing should never be left out of a review. I lost 3 hours the other night. But because it's CDPR - most are ignorantly overlooking the issues. Some set their expectations so high, they are lying to themselves. Same as Kojima - Death Stranding was interesting and fresh. But literally no gameplay. Just walk from A to B. It was nowhere near a 10/10 but look how many gave it because it was Kojima.
@@ChrisKendallCK Not really. Ubisoft got away with an entire decade of unfinished buggy games at this point and they always get positive scores from game journalists.
@@ChrisKendallCK Origins, Odyssey, Valhalla, Watch Dogs 2,Legion glitchy, buggy, boring, janky and still gets very high scores. Stop smoking that cheap stuff
Well... if you’ve ever played and enjoyed a Bethesda game, I can’t imagine you won’t enjoy Cyberpunk. Fallout 3, New Vegas, 4, Oblivion, Skyrim... all buggy as hell, but still phenomenal games. Guess we’ll see how the user reviews pan out! :P
@@musashimiyamoto8998 i played and beat morrowind, oblivion, fallout 3, 4 and skyrim. Skyrim is the only one that i can really recall any major bugs on (mounting horse and getting launched across the map to my death). But i still love the game overall.
I, like many others, have tons of nostalgia for these games, Skyrim especially. However when I look back Skyrim on ps3 was the single most bug ridden game I've ever played. The more I leveled up the worse it got until it was basically unplayable.
People were over hyping this game way too much like it was the second coming of jesus 🤦♂️ no way could it live up to it. I just want a solid 8 out 10 new ip which it looks like I will get
anything less than a 12/10 is impossible. this is CDPR. peoples entire perception of the world will be ruined if CDPR makes a game that isnt the next generation defining game to end all games. even though very few people were Witcher fans before 3 and definitely not before 2 haha. (inb4 someone who read the books before the games comments).
@@hoofhearted4 I liked Witcher 1, but I haven't really gotten around to play 2 and 3 yet. Just had other things to play and Witcher games tend to be time hogs. Looking forward to CP77, though.
Surprizingly I think IGN was pretty close with their review. The game has some bugs and performance issues but so far it seems nothing is game-breaking. The game itself however is very good. I liked how the reviewer described the story path as being like a bush with branches extending in all directions.
It sounds like this is genuinely going to be an amazing game - in a year or two, with post-launch support, possibly with community-driven patches. And this sort of thing is why I no longer bother getting hyped for big releases.
Me either. Patience is a virtue. I'm going to enjoy the last gen titles and my Xbox/ps4 before getting a new console. Probably not for another year or two.
Witcher 3 was just as much of a buggy mess at release as CP77 seems to be right now. They'll probably iron it out over time, maybe even with the Day 1 patch, but for now it's best to hold off on it, until we see a clearer picture.
? You don’t just ignore bugs man, bugs can ruin your experience of playing a game. You judge the product at RELEASE, not 1 year or a couple months down the line when all of the bugs are polished out.
Exactly I got the witcher 3 on release and I loved that game even though it was buggy back then and I'll be getting cyberpunk on release if its good i can look past the bugs knowing that it'll get patched.
Yea, at this point it’s damned if they do, damned if they don’t. They’d have been ripped to shreds by a large group of ppl if they delayed again. At this point, I want to play.
I haven't watched game trailers or anything like that in years so my hype "levels" are always low. By doing so its made me a happier gamer. Plus never pre-ordering and almost never paying full price for a game. If you want my tips on avoiding disappointment that is it.
You are one of the best reviewers on the planet. Seriously... After the patch, and you’ve played it, I think a lot of people will still want to hear what you have to say. I know I will.
12:17 "... Jump in, enjoy it, ... but you don't really have to feel like it's a family member." As an "older" gamer (35+): Thank you so much for these words. It's much appreciated when people like you ask your audience to put things back into perspective. It's just a videogame. Even if you're a little bit disappointed with Cyberpunk 2077 in the end (let's be honest, the expectations towards this game were/are on a level somewhere between "unreal" and "Star Citizen"), it won't ruin your life. Thanks mate, stay safe!
I’ve just been wanting Cyberpunk to be a good immersive sim style of rpg, like the previous two Deus Ex games. If it meets that bar, I’ll be happy, and if it’s better than that, I’ll be excited.
Lockjaw “Don’t compare a first person cyberpunk themed rpg with an upgrade system based on body modification with another first person cyberpunk themed rpg with an upgrade system based on body modification! 🤪”
That's exactly what you should do with all reviews. Take the technical details, the important info or anything that's relevant to you, then throw away the opinion as that is basically worthless.
@@robertherrick6703 Yea, a bunch of $10-$20 discounts by then. I already got $10 off the preorder and then a $10 coupon upon pick up so in my head....I already got a $20 discount. Oh Bestbuy why did you have to get rid of Gamersunlocked lol
Hey, I just made a video about what's going on with some of these reviews, especially the one from Gamespot. If you have the time, please consider checking it out.
I had a feeling they didn't give you a review copy for this reason. They knew you would call them out for the crazy amount of bugs everyone is reporting.
@@tymmezinni Because other reviewers don't necessarily let the bugs impact their score, as he said at the beginning of the video, while in my experience of watching ACG, he definitely will hold bugs accountable in any scoring he gives the game. ACG is generally much more forgiving to devs though, in my experience, than someone such as Worth A Buy, who is even more critical of bugs, and doesn't always touch on the positive aspects of the games he plays when they are buggy.
@@Abrioso I think we all knew it would be like this. A title this massive is just too large to not require a massive amount of polish and bug reporting from the best play testers: the consumer.
Agreed ACG is consistently the one of the most insightful least biased reviewers and a weekly news dump from him would be great, hearing his thoughts on some of the topical happenings in gaming news
@@Nightfall815 the whole franchise is being strained at the moment. They should try and revive the older franchises they did not touch for a long time like prince of persia and splinter cell instead of milking AC
Man, I approve of your rating system, but this notion of 9/10 being low for AAA needs to end, because it's very real and gamers act like it's a sin for a AAA game to get an 8/10 sometimes. IGN is just an 9/10 factory now making so many of their reviews just vapid. Like a 7/10 should indicate a game with some pretty noticeable flaws, not "THIS GAME IS LITERALLY TRASH AND THE COMMUNITY HATES IT"
From the early reviews, this is not a good Deus Ex game. Stealth is there, but it's all just stat checks and not actual skill. You can turn every turret friendly, blind every opponent, and just walk right by everyone. The only cost of entry is that the cyberware is expensive, meaning you can't really play the way you want until closer to halfway through the game when you finally can buy the cyberdecks that allow for higher skill checks. Also, melee is the weakest point of the entire game.
@@rapidrabbit11485 so... same as Deus Ex? I mean that game is the same, unless you invest points you can't do those things either. And I've heard from Giantbomb you can do the usual Deus Ex type things like look for a vent, jump across a gap, or bully someone for their security card.
@@kael13 Sounds a lot like it to me as well. I mean many of the stealth options for Human Revolution were hidden behind a "you need to punch through this wall, carry this heavy box or jump to that high platform" kind of skill gate. Sneaking mechanics themselves were forgiving enough to make up for the lack of depth and ultimately they did what they were intended to. That for me indicates a job well done. They didn't need to be more intricate than necessary and I'm sure from a dev point of view they were hard enough to implement either way. If this game is only half as good as Deus Ex than I'll be more than happy. I largely ignored it over the last few months and by the looks of it I won't be playing it anytime before the weekend so let's see how it goes.
I feel the same about most games labeled buggy. If a game has bugs but they aren’t game breaking I usually just forget them or don’t notice them at all. When critiquing a game for review I’m sure reviewers are looking really closely at every aspect so they are more apparent. I’ve found if I enjoy a game my brain usually just blocks out the bugs for the most part. And all the reviews so far have pretty much said bugs haven’t been game breaking. So I’m not to worried. I mean all Bethesda games are released buggy and remain buggy but everyone still loves them.
Most people wont notice the bugs, it’s only people who are nitpicking who notice these bugs or even care about them. I personally have never cared about bugs even though i encounter them from time to time, most of the time it’s not gamebreaking bugs
"Works on my machine" is such a dumb argument. It's like saying rape, murder, covid, etc and such doesn't exist or is overblown because it hasn't happened to you. A lot of people have documented evidence of the extreme amounts of bugs and issues with both AC Valhalla and Cyberpunk. You getting lucky with 1 game doesn't mean it will happen with the next one. So when you run into massive amounts of bugs that are potentially game-breaking, how will you react if someone else just walks in and says "People are overreacting about the bugs, works on my machine!". People are downright delusional about Cyberpunk when they say stuff like "yeah people won't even notice the bugs". We're talking Mass Effect Andromeda levels here, possibly worse (from both leaked videos, screens, words from journalists, etc).
I feel as if CD Project Red took your review code away because they knew you are the most honest reviewer out there. They were probably afraid that you would’ve put out a ‘wait for sale’ because of how many bugs are out or some funky thing about performance if there is one. Either way I can’t wait for you to review the game, whenever that may be.
I lowkey want this game to be the biggest flop of the year so people will maybe learn that pre purchases and pre awarding games that aren't even done is a mistake and is not good for the industry and for gaming in general
When I saw the few reviews go up that came out today, it's never good when the reviewer repeatedly brings up bugs- but ends up giving it a 9. Getting the sense ACG didn't get a code because he might have given a "wait for a sale/major patch". When they pushed it back from the ordinal launch date to Dec. - the hand of Microsoft and Sony was clear- they needed something on next gen this holiday season- the game can not be delayed until spring even though it probs needs it.
I didn't get on the Watch Dogs hype train, and when I finally played it as a free game on Epic, I was pleasantly surprised with the game amd the fun I had in it. Lesson : Never ride a hype train, nor ride the cynic train.
9 out of 10 game reviewers are trash. the whole concept of rating a subjective product with a numerical value that applies the same way to every single potential customer is so outdated and naive. I love your reviews because they simply explain your own views honestly. I can make up my own mind based on your feedback.
"This is borderline anti-consumer" "It is. Imagine if EA or Activision or Bethesda pulled this move. Everyone's pulling punches on this because it's CD Projekt Red." I think Laymen Gaming summarized the whole Cyberpunk 2077 review situation in a perfect way.
@@lonelyheartproductions5237 oh god. I’m not sure I’d be able to play a VR version of a hectic FPS for more than 30 minutes before I felt like puking...
I love New Vegas and when I played it, couldn't look at Benny in the casino or my game would do a full crash and require a full ps3 reboot. So, bring on the glitches lol
I mean while I wouldn't excuse a game based on this alone, it is true that the more branching and open a game is the more bugs will just inevitably occur. If I entered New Vegas through the main gate it would crash and corrupt my save (360 version), so I had to become friendly with the NCR (or steal their gear) to use the Camp McCarran tram to New Vegas for a long time. I still consider New Vegas my favorite game of all time.
Yup, and knowing them they will keep fixing it till it runs properly, most likely with some free small dlc's inbetween if their history is anything to go by. Not many companies you can trust this much to fix it like them sadly, and since it is one of the bases of their success I don't expect them to stop with it now. Now hope the rest of the industry will follow this standard if this game will become as huge as most of us hope it will be, even if it is just for that. btw, didn't the Witcher 3 also have a bunch of bugs at the beginning? Didn't follow that one closely at the time but did read that at the time
the nail that stands out gets hit. I think it's because of the high expectations that people make such a big deal about bugs. to me what matters is the game itself. i dont mind having a few bugs here and there especially in a game this ambitious it's to be expected.
Anyone pooping on this CD Projekt Red game for bugs clearly doesn't play CD Project Red games. Witcher 3 was infamously buggy at launch. They'll fix the bugs...
Yep. Witcher 3 on launch week had some hilarious bugs and glitches. I think half the people commenting here never played any rpg before. Gta 5 launch was horrible too look at the game now
Red seems to really stand by their games. since most of the complaints are bugs, I would say the game is likely to age very well as these bugs are stamped out over time.
Dude seriously, everybody is mentioning the performance. It runs like absolute garbage. Stop with your weird attemps at a half cooked defense of this garbage.
@@AJ-xv7oh I cant tell if youre mad at me, or people who are defending the game as it is now... In case it is the former, what I am saying is not that the game is perfect now - its that even though its not in a great place now, its probably going to get better as problems like performance and bugs get fixed over time, based on the previous ways CDred has handled their games over time.
The reviewer from Gamespot was terrible at describing what she experienced. She was embarrassed to talk about the sex scenes. She came off like a casual gamer.
She came off like this was her fallback job and doesn't really enjoy reviewing games. Gamespot use to be great back in the early 2000s to 2010. Somewhere along the line they've become absolute trash.
From the IGN review: "(reviewer) is jealous of the gamer playing this in 6 months for the first time". As much as I don't like IGN - if even they give you a hint with a baseball bat to the face to avoid this for now, maybe one should. I hope it's not going to be a disaster. Best to wait and see.
I wasn't worried about this game until the very first delay, and I realized it's been trying to spend three generations of consoles what's going to screw them over. I had no doubt they were going to have Skyrim level of bugs, but this is absurd and explains a lot.
AC Unity, a beautiful ambitious game was shredded to pieces due to bugs. I won't see anyone criticising this game for it's bugs because muh CDPR and Keanu Chungus, 10 years in development. We gamers should evaluate games equally and not based on hype.
@@j.j.9511 Well the Witcher 3 was undercooked upon release too if youre talking bugs, that didnt stop everyone raving about it. The difference is that, in 2020, most of the people who work at Giant Bomb dont even seem to like video games anymore.
@@pobbityboppity1110 Like what? the last game I remember Jeff Gertsman really liking was Control, which was weird and random becuase that game isnt even that good and also had loads of techincally issues which he strangely ignored despite the fact that he constantly complains about issues in other games. I remember that around the same time he didnt even like Mario Maker 2 and complained that it was worse than the first one, which is complete BS, as its just a better version of the first one.
It's a single player RPG. No matter how good it is, it will be lucky to have a 6 month shelf life if dlc is included. It'll probably be great of that I have no doubt,but it won't be something that's built to last
Wait till the game comes out on the 10th. Content creators are scrambling to be the first reviewer. So with these early releases "by accident" are gonna be jumbled together. Anyone with less than 10 hours clocked in on an RPG has no CREDIBLE perspective to do a review on an RPG game
Given I'm planning to get it Day One on PS4. I am SUPER worried about the fact they wouldn't let anyone review it on another console besides PC. Given the massive amount of bugs on the PC version (which was the only thing they let them review on) I'm wondering if it's downright unplayable on the PS4.
Because the fucking developers themselves send them "not patched , not optimised with drivers etc." copy of the game for the sole purpose of reviewing it as it is.
@@sonictelephone1526 don't get discouraged, P5 is like at least 80hrs if you're willing to blow through. It took me just shy of a hundred, I think 99. But regardless the game is phenomenal and worth the investment
The reviews are still overall very positive. Seems like a BGS type thing where there are issues but the underlying game is so good that most people are willing to overlook them (76 notwithstanding).
This game was built up for so long it's clear that certain outlets we're willing to go out their way to ignore issues to justify giving it a perfect score.
Just a reminder this game original release date was April 16th. Just how? How could they say that date at that time? The game still a buggy mess, what would it looked like back in April?
which is exactly what we fucking wanted like what were people expecting? i wanted character choice, meaningful interactions with the world and other characters and progression that wasnt master of everyhting like in skyrim and other games
Witcher 3 had mad bugs I still luv that game.I’m going into this with low expectations and I dig the style and feel of cyberpunk I think I’m gonna dig it can’t wait for tomorrow idk if if game of the year but am I gonna play this over and over again I think so
ACG the hero we needed. I cant wait for your full review. I dont think itll be as magical and as feels as the Witcher was. Cant compete with that lore and source material behind it. But on the other hand ive never waited for a game release this long and still be sure im 1000% buying. Ive been waiting since trailer launch in 2013.
Well i bought it for pc and it just keeps crashing. So now im looking at buying a new pc. I have been able to get 2 hrs of combined playtime inbetween crashes and there is a ton of content. Still waiting for the story to hook me, whereas the witcher caused me to read the books the story was so engrossing. I guess an i7 2600k with a 980ti wont cut it anymore which is understandable. Im gonna build a new pc wait a month or so for more patches and bug fixes and jump back in.
I'm so sorry brotha, I've been watching your videos for like 1yr and just realized I'm not subscribed. Your videos are always recommended to me so I never noticed I wasn't subbed. Love your brutally honest reviews. Best on the Tube 👍
Oh yeah I got my pre-order. But I am genuinely disappointed. I'll play it however it looks. I got the special edition chair and the special edition mouse and if GameStop doesn't F*Me I'll get the collector's edition too. But it seems I will be disappointed with it at release.
Literally ppl been fine with skyrim and it's bugs for years and as soon as another game comes out that has bugs ppl roast it, it's super hypocritical and this way more ambitious than anything bethesda has done
Expectations are so much higher for this game though. People believe this will be the best game ever made... I'm glad I haven't fallen for the hype so I won't be that disappointed when I pick it up at some point
People fine with skyrim are also fine with cbp. It's 2020 tho, and saying CBP is more ambitious than skyrim is ridiculous. CBP is CDPR's DeusEX and we were promised much more than that. Big letdown even not considering the bugs.
YongYea had a patch apply in the middle of his main review playthrough and noticed it didn't really change anything. However when he tried a new playthrough on a new character to try a new starting character, he noticed some bugs were then squashed. Appears the patch didn't apply to save games. Probably will be the same with the day 1 patch.
The consoles not being included for being why they pushed stuff back allegedly is very concerning here. How they’re doing everything is really not okay and I don’t think anyone is being harsh given how long it’s taken to get this out. 7+ years should be damn close to perfect
Ignore this idiot above. I have no doubt the game is a masterpiece wrapped in 10 layers of controversial, sensationalist reviews for the sake of clickbait. I'm waiting to see for myself because at the end of the day you need to play the game and make up your own mind about it.
I think they didn’t allow footage of the game is because reviewers were playing a version of the game without the day 1 patch and it was hella buggy. The game with the day 1 patch is how it’s supposed to be shown to the masses, not saying it will fix all bugs but it will hopefully make the game presentable and playable.
Kinda glad you're getting it later cause then you won't have any of these limitations in your review. Sure it'll be a good game, but I'll appreciate the full Karak treatment
They will fix the game. I wish they made better decisions and I know COVID didn’t help but sitting here sending death threats is not the answer. There video game devs stop treating them like they have to fulfill your every need at once
At least Death stranding wasn't full of bugs, not only that describing that as only only a walking simulator with pissing probably means you never even finished the game.
@@GoodvibesXD The strength of New Vegas is the writing, rpg mechanics, and quests. People look past it's shortcomings because as far as RPG games go, few allow for the share level of replay-ability that it does, and that's just in Vanilla without having mods or DLC. The verdict is still out on Cyberpunk, but something tells me it's going to be fine, but not the second coming of Christ people make it out to be.
Returned my copy. Ppl forget it was originally made to release in April for PS4, Xbox, & PC. Ppl defending with “should only play on PS5” have no idea wtf they are talking about. I played this game, a friend’s copy, and couldn’t take. Even on PS4 Pro, it played like crap. Crashed twice in 3 hours, shot a NPC & he made a T shape and floated through the damn wall! Funniest thing I’ve ever seen but also upsetting. Glad I was able to return it and wait. 8th return at my small local GameStop in a few hours according to the guy that works there.
Honestly as long as the story and characters are good then I'll be happy. I was able to play fallout new vegas when it first came out and that had a game breaking bug were going trough a door could crash your game
There's no excuse for releasing a buggy mess of a game. Especially for one of this budget. CDPR doesn't get a free pass for launching something apparently buggier than W3.
I vaguely remember the last time Cyberpunk got delayed that the lead developer (or someone very high up in CD Projekt Red) was on a conference call with investors and VERY TENTATIVELY guaranteed that the game would be ready and playable on December 10th. Bug fixes have been among the main reasons for every delay this year so I'm not entirely surprised the game is still buggy. It's a massive game with an unheard of level of detail packed into it.
Honest question, anyone else notice that cursor dot in the middle of the screen that would kinda flicker when moving around the environment? And is it possible to turn that off cause it was kind of distracting, i found myself focusing on that point rather than looking around more.
I think people built this game up as being the best thing ever in their head that they’re going to do some gymnastics in these reviews.
I've said it before, this is probably going to be the most disappointing game of 2020, and also the best game of 2020.
That's how crazy the hype has gotten.
Obviously
It'll probs be good like how Doom Eternal was. It was good, but not the best thing since sliced bread
People are so stupid thinking its the best game, no doubt it will be a good game, but im gonna wait til it goes cheap, I will enjoy this game regardless as im not one of the fools overhyping it. Thats the basic rule, always go into something without hype
Gymnastics like trying to dodge death threats from gamers that think a score is too low... not that that would ever happen.
My main issue is all the reviews going. "It crashes. It softblocks itself. It has a millions bugs and glitches. It can't run stable on a 3080. 10/10 though."

Yessir. Witcher 3 now compared to Witcher 3 at launch are like night and day. What I’m gathering from the reviews is that the game itself (story, characters, scope, setting, depth) is great BUT bugs make it harder to enjoy. Bugs can be fixed over time, but what you can’t fix is a games entire core after it’s been released.

The fact that a 2060 can't hold a steady 60 FPS on 1080p MEDIUM is also a huge red flag. Their recommended specs had the 2060 listed for 1440p Ultra. LMAO at that, not even the 2080 ti is holding 60 FPS on 1440p ultra.
weird that they didn’t allow a console review yet that is what the delays were for
Same. Major sus. Only thing I can think of is they aren't pushing day 1 patch till 10th and the console needs that for review.
Day 1 patch is for stability issues. My guess is like Witcher 3, PS4 and Xbox one versions are not running smoothly.

"If you don't like eggnog, you can leave right now." And again, I am reminded why I follow this channel.
Games like Days Gone were badly criticized by its bugs.
I think reviewers have to make up their minds. You either take in consideration the bugs for the scores or you don’t.
Days gone was done dirty.
That game is plain fun. Platinum without a second thought. Most games lose my attention after the main quest.
The problem is their relationship and/or opinion of the developers get in the way.
Days Gone got tore apart. Anything by Ubisoft, 2K Sports, EA all get torn apart. And rightly so in my opinion, if a game has a tonne of bugs they should hit the review score and be a large part of the review.
For instance - I'm really enjoying Watch Dogs Legion on Series X but there is a bug which occasionally fails to save the game, and you lose your progress. That type of thing should never be left out of a review. I lost 3 hours the other night.
But because it's CDPR - most are ignorantly overlooking the issues. Some set their expectations so high, they are lying to themselves.
Same as Kojima - Death Stranding was interesting and fresh. But literally no gameplay. Just walk from A to B. It was nowhere near a 10/10 but look how many gave it because it was Kojima.
@@ChrisKendallCK Not really. Ubisoft got away with an entire decade of unfinished buggy games at this point and they always get positive scores from game journalists.
@@phant0mdummy yeah it was one of the very few games I’ve bothered to platinum

Well... if you’ve ever played and enjoyed a Bethesda game, I can’t imagine you won’t enjoy Cyberpunk. Fallout 3, New Vegas, 4, Oblivion, Skyrim... all buggy as hell, but still phenomenal games.
Guess we’ll see how the user reviews pan out! :P
Some of my favorite games.
New Vegas is one of my favorites and it the game that crashed the most among other issues I still loved it.
@Rabygon DId you only play for 5 minutes? GTFOH
@@musashimiyamoto8998 i played and beat morrowind, oblivion, fallout 3, 4 and skyrim. Skyrim is the only one that i can really recall any major bugs on (mounting horse and getting launched across the map to my death). But i still love the game overall.
I, like many others, have tons of nostalgia for these games, Skyrim especially. However when I look back Skyrim on ps3 was the single most bug ridden game I've ever played. The more I leveled up the worse it got until it was basically unplayable.
People were over hyping this game way too much like it was the second coming of jesus 🤦♂️ no way could it live up to it. I just want a solid 8 out 10 new ip which it looks like I will get
That's what it'll be. Game isn't gonna terrible.
anything less than a 12/10 is impossible. this is CDPR. peoples entire perception of the world will be ruined if CDPR makes a game that isnt the next generation defining game to end all games. even though very few people were Witcher fans before 3 and definitely not before 2 haha.

@@hoofhearted4 I liked Witcher 1, but I haven't really gotten around to play 2 and 3 yet. Just had other things to play and Witcher games tend to be time hogs. Looking forward to CP77, though.
Surprizingly I think IGN was pretty close with their review. The game has some bugs and performance issues but so far it seems nothing is game-breaking. The game itself however is very good. I liked how the reviewer described the story path as being like a bush with branches extending in all directions.

@@ChristianMeyer did you play Witcher 3 on day one it was a nightmare, now its one of my favourite games ever.
It sounds like this is genuinely going to be an amazing game - in a year or two, with post-launch support, possibly with community-driven patches.
And this sort of thing is why I no longer bother getting hyped for big releases.
Same
Me either. Patience is a virtue. I'm going to enjoy the last gen titles and my Xbox/ps4 before getting a new console. Probably not for another year or two.
TLDR; game reviews have zero impact on sales, they just give gamers something to validate their opinions or to rail against.
Totally agreed.
Couldn't have said it any better 👍🏾
Lol where did you get that from?, It might not affect fan boys but for a rational and a smart buyer is matter a ton lot i can assure you that
Cyberpunk will be just as polish*ed as Witcher 3 when it's all said and done. People need to calm down.
Witcher 3 was just as much of a buggy mess at release as CP77 seems to be right now. They'll probably iron it out over time, maybe even with the Day 1 patch, but for now it's best to hold off on it, until we see a clearer picture.
? You don’t just ignore bugs man, bugs can ruin your experience of playing a game. You judge the product at RELEASE, not 1 year or a couple months down the line when all of the bugs are polished out.
Exactly I got the witcher 3 on release and I loved that game even though it was buggy back then and I'll be getting cyberpunk on release if its good i can look past the bugs knowing that it'll get patched.
Yea, at this point it’s damned if they do, damned if they don’t. They’d have been ripped to shreds by a large group of ppl if they delayed again. At this point, I want to play.
Witcher 3 is still a buggy mess till this day piss off
I haven't watched game trailers or anything like that in years so my hype "levels" are always low.

OK but keep up to your words as well when Ubisoft releases far cry 6.
I had a feeling they didn't give you a review copy for this reason. They knew you would call them out for the crazy amount of bugs everyone is reporting.
If everyone is calling out CDPR for the bugs, why would ACG be the only one segregated against?
@@tymmezinni Because other reviewers don't necessarily let the bugs impact their score, as he said at the beginning of the video, while in my experience of watching ACG, he definitely will hold bugs accountable in any scoring he gives the game. ACG is generally much more forgiving to devs though, in my experience, than someone such as Worth A Buy, who is even more critical of bugs, and doesn't always touch on the positive aspects of the games he plays when they are buggy.
@@steviemoobs He was offered a code tho
Give this game three months of patch work to really improve.

Man, I approve of your rating system, but this notion of 9/10 being low for AAA needs to end, because it's very real and gamers act like it's a sin for a AAA game to get an 8/10 sometimes.
IGN is just an 9/10 factory now making so many of their reviews just vapid.
Like a 7/10 should indicate a game with some pretty noticeable flaws, not "THIS GAME IS LITERALLY TRASH AND THE COMMUNITY HATES IT"
I’ll be happy if it’s as good as Human Revolution, I never expected it to be the best game ever.
Damn yes, I agree with you, if it is even like it I would enjoy this game a lot.
Totally, absolutely loved the Deus Ex games.
From the early reviews, this is not a good Deus Ex game. Stealth is there, but it's all just stat checks and not actual skill. You can turn every turret friendly, blind every opponent, and just walk right by everyone. The only cost of entry is that the cyberware is expensive, meaning you can't really play the way you want until closer to halfway through the game when you finally can buy the cyberdecks that allow for higher skill checks. Also, melee is the weakest point of the entire game.
@@rapidrabbit11485 so... same as Deus Ex? I mean that game is the same, unless you invest points you can't do those things either. And I've heard from Giantbomb you can do the usual Deus Ex type things like look for a vent, jump across a gap, or bully someone for their security card.
@@kael13 Sounds a lot like it to me as well. I mean many of the stealth options for Human Revolution were hidden behind a "you need to punch through this wall, carry this heavy box or jump to that high platform" kind of skill gate. Sneaking mechanics themselves were forgiving enough to make up for the lack of depth and ultimately they did what they were intended to. That for me indicates a job well done. They didn't need to be more intricate than necessary and I'm sure from a dev point of view they were hard enough to implement either way.
If this game is only half as good as Deus Ex than I'll be more than happy. I largely ignored it over the last few months and by the looks of it I won't be playing it anytime before the weekend so let's see how it goes.
You give us in 13 minutes what other RUclipsrs try to string us along for 3 hours with no time stamps. Thanks ACG!! Merry Xmas
reviewing the reviews is cheap as hell as a content creation piece.
I completely agree. I really love this channel.
people and reviewers said Valhalla was a buggy mess...I played 50 hours of it with maybe 1 bug?... I might be lucky..but I hope its the same for 2077
@Johnny R ya. I'm pretty sure it's gonna be great 👌
I feel the same about most games labeled buggy. If a game has bugs but they aren’t game breaking I usually just forget them or don’t notice them at all. When critiquing a game for review I’m sure reviewers are looking really closely at every aspect so they are more apparent. I’ve found if I enjoy a game my brain usually just blocks out the bugs for the most part. And all the reviews so far have pretty much said bugs haven’t been game breaking. So I’m not to worried. I mean all Bethesda games are released buggy and remain buggy but everyone still loves them.
Most people wont notice the bugs, it’s only people who are nitpicking who notice these bugs or even care about them. I personally have never cared about bugs even though i encounter them from time to time, most of the time it’s not gamebreaking bugs
The thing is that a lot of bugs can miss players entirely or be so minor that you forget them the moment they've happened.
"Works on my machine" is such a dumb argument. It's like saying rape, murder, covid, etc and such doesn't exist or is overblown because it hasn't happened to you. A lot of people have documented evidence of the extreme amounts of bugs and issues with both AC Valhalla and Cyberpunk. You getting lucky with 1 game doesn't mean it will happen with the next one. So when you run into massive amounts of bugs that are potentially game-breaking, how will you react if someone else just walks in and says "People are overreacting about the bugs, works on my machine!".
People are downright delusional about Cyberpunk when they say stuff like "yeah people won't even notice the bugs". We're talking Mass Effect Andromeda levels here, possibly worse (from both leaked videos, screens, words from journalists, etc).
I feel as if CD Project Red took your review code away because they knew you are the most honest reviewer out there. They were probably afraid that you would’ve put out a ‘wait for sale’ because of how many bugs are out or some funky thing about performance if there is one. Either way I can’t wait for you to review the game, whenever that may be.
I lowkey want this game to be the biggest flop of the year so people will maybe learn that pre purchases and pre awarding games that aren't even done is a mistake and is not good for the industry and for gaming in general
When I saw the few reviews go up that came out today, it's never good when the reviewer repeatedly brings up bugs- but ends up giving it a 9. Getting the sense ACG didn't get a code because he might have given a "wait for a sale/major patch".
When they pushed it back from the ordinal launch date to Dec. - the hand of Microsoft and Sony was clear- they needed something on next gen this holiday season- the game can not be delayed until spring even though it probs needs it.
Watch Dogs 1 ruined my ability to be hyped for a game, i'm surprised how unhyped i am for this game lol
That was devasteting...
I know right. Really hoping that they didn't pull a Watch Dogs and develop a story around game mechanic concepts rather than around an actual plot.
Same, never pre-ordered a game again and I stopped going to game stop
I wasn't hyped for watch dogs for its story, but it's world and online which it mostly delivered on so I was pretty happy
I didn't get on the Watch Dogs hype train, and when I finally played it as a free game on Epic, I was pleasantly surprised with the game amd the fun I had in it. Lesson : Never ride a hype train, nor ride the cynic train.
I am still waiting for Cyberpunk preorder to be shipped
9 out of 10 game reviewers are trash. the whole concept of rating a subjective product with a numerical value that applies the same way to every single potential customer is so outdated and naive.
I love your reviews because they simply explain your own views honestly. I can make up my own mind based on your feedback.
"This is borderline anti-consumer"
"It is. Imagine if EA or Activision or Bethesda pulled this move. Everyone's pulling punches on this because it's CD Projekt Red."

@@GorillaEats777 nah
I mean while I wouldn't excuse a game based on this alone, it is true that the more branching and open a game is the more bugs will just inevitably occur. If I entered New Vegas through the main gate it would crash and corrupt my save (360 version), so I had to become friendly with the NCR (or steal their gear) to use the Camp McCarran tram to New Vegas for a long time.
I still consider New Vegas my favorite game of all time.
Yup, and knowing them they will keep fixing it till it runs properly, most likely with some free small dlc's inbetween if their history is anything to go by. Not many companies you can trust this much to fix it like them sadly, and since it is one of the bases of their success I don't expect them to stop with it now. Now hope the rest of the industry will follow this standard if this game will become as huge as most of us hope it will be, even if it is just for that.
btw, didn't the Witcher 3 also have a bunch of bugs at the beginning? Didn't follow that one closely at the time but did read that at the time
the nail that stands out gets hit. I think it's because of the high expectations that people make such a big deal about bugs. to me what matters is the game itself. i dont mind having a few bugs here and there especially in a game this ambitious it's to be expected.
Anyone pooping on this CD Projekt Red game for bugs clearly doesn't play CD Project Red games. Witcher 3 was infamously buggy at launch. They'll fix the bugs...
Yep. Witcher 3 on launch week had some hilarious bugs and glitches. I think half the people commenting here never played any rpg before. Gta 5 launch was horrible too look at the game now
Red seems to really stand by their games. since most of the complaints are bugs, I would say the game is likely to age very well as these bugs are stamped out over time.
Dude seriously, everybody is mentioning the performance. It runs like absolute garbage. Stop with your weird attemps at a half cooked defense of this garbage.
@@AJ-xv7oh I cant tell if youre mad at me, or people who are defending the game as it is now... In case it is the former, what I am saying is not that the game is perfect now - its that even though its not in a great place now, its probably going to get better as problems like performance and bugs get fixed over time, based on the previous ways CDred has handled their games over time.
The reviewer from Gamespot was terrible at describing what she experienced. She was embarrassed to talk about the sex scenes. She came off like a casual gamer.
On her review on the gamespot website, most of her complaints stemmed from how edgy the game is. I dont know how she became a journalist.
In her defense, the sex scenes are pretty awkward
She came off like this was her fallback job and doesn't really enjoy reviewing games. Gamespot use to be great back in the early 2000s to 2010. Somewhere along the line they've become absolute trash.
I think many journalists want a job after school. Seems like that's just the one that called her
From the IGN review: "(reviewer) is jealous of the gamer playing this in 6 months for the first time". As much as I don't like IGN - if even they give you a hint with a baseball bat to the face to avoid this for now, maybe one should. I hope it's not going to be a disaster. Best to wait and see.

The reviews are still overall very positive. Seems like a BGS type thing where there are issues but the underlying game is so good that most people are willing to overlook them (76 notwithstanding).
that and the faith that cdpr will polish the game shiny, like their 20+ witcher 3 patches
This game was built up for so long it's clear that certain outlets we're willing to go out their way to ignore issues to justify giving it a perfect score.
Or maybe they just like the game. Wierd concept eh. Some people focus on the core fun of a game and not every bug they encounter.
Just a reminder this game original release date was April 16th. Just how? How could they say that date at that time? The game still a buggy mess, what would it looked like back in April?

If you're a cyberpunk genre fan and enjoy story driven, choice matters, crpg mechanic style rolls. This will be your GOTY.
... of 2021
which is exactly what we fucking wanted like what were people expecting? i wanted character choice, meaningful interactions with the world and other characters and progression that wasnt master of everyhting like in skyrim and other games
LOL during the intro with them leaving the elevator, the model has guns in his hands and yet pulls them out again.
Just remember how buggy The Witcher 3 were and how they fixed it quick
It still is, the horse’s legs still get inside the land and Geralt always starts dancing between two rocks.
@s hudson there was at least 1 roach
Muddposs TW3 is really/pretty much bug free, doesn’t effect the game at all
Witcher 3 had mad bugs I still luv that game.I’m going into this with low expectations and I dig the style and feel of cyberpunk I think I’m gonna dig it can’t wait for tomorrow idk if if game of the year but am I gonna play this over and over again I think so
@s hudson you played Cyberpunk2077 ?
ACG the hero we needed. I cant wait for your full review. I dont think itll be as magical and as feels as the Witcher was. Cant compete with that lore and source material behind it. But on the other hand ive never waited for a game release this long and still be sure im 1000% buying. Ive been waiting since trailer launch in 2013.
This has more lore then witcher does. The tabletop game and its stories have been around longer then the witcher books.
Well i bought it for pc and it just keeps crashing. So now im looking at buying a new pc. I have been able to get 2 hrs of combined playtime inbetween crashes and there is a ton of content. Still waiting for the story to hook me, whereas the witcher caused me to read the books the story was so engrossing. I guess an i7 2600k with a 980ti wont cut it anymore which is understandable. Im gonna build a new pc wait a month or so for more patches and bug fixes and jump back in.
I have a sense of dread in Cyberpunk 2077 performance in OG consoles =c
I'm so sorry brotha, I've been watching your videos for like 1yr and just realized I'm not subscribed. Your videos are always recommended to me so I never noticed I wasn't subbed. Love your brutally honest reviews. Best on the Tube 👍
Good vibes
Dont care what anyone says that game bugs and all will be in my house hope yall enjoy
On life hahahaha
Oh yeah I got my pre-order. But I am genuinely disappointed. I'll play it however it looks. I got the special edition chair and the special edition mouse and if GameStop doesn't F*Me I'll get the collector's edition too. But it seems I will be disappointed with it at release.
I'm not worried about Cyberpunk, not a single bit, nooooo sir. Not at all, IM NOT WORRIED
You sound worried
Cope
@@csairbrushartwork NOT AT ALL
Literally ppl been fine with skyrim and it's bugs for years and as soon as another game comes out that has bugs ppl roast it, it's super hypocritical and this way more ambitious than anything bethesda has done
Expectations are so much higher for this game though. People believe this will be the best game ever made... I'm glad I haven't fallen for the hype so I won't be that disappointed when I pick it up at some point
People fine with skyrim are also fine with cbp. It's 2020 tho, and saying CBP is more ambitious than skyrim is ridiculous. CBP is CDPR's DeusEX and we were promised much more than that. Big letdown even not considering the bugs.
YongYea had a patch apply in the middle of his main review playthrough and noticed it didn't really change anything. However when he tried a new playthrough on a new character to try a new starting character, he noticed some bugs were then squashed. Appears the patch didn't apply to save games. Probably will be the same with the day 1 patch.
The consoles not being included for being why they pushed stuff back allegedly is very concerning here. How they’re doing everything is really not okay and I don’t think anyone is being harsh given how long it’s taken to get this out. 7+ years should be damn close to perfect
So what is the file size going to be like when 8k is the industry standard.
At that point call of duty will be a minimum 2tb lol
After years of waiting, I'm definitely starting to feel like I may need to adjust my expectations of the game.
Or howbout dont hype up a game you know nothing about
Ignore this idiot above.
I have no doubt the game is a masterpiece wrapped in 10 layers of controversial, sensationalist reviews for the sake of clickbait.
I'm waiting to see for myself because at the end of the day you need to play the game and make up your own mind about it.
@@byron3604 so how disappointed are you with this buggy mess of a game?
@@SireMalado not at all actually.
I haven't been on in a few days because I'm rather enjoying it.
@@byron3604 I'm gonna wait a month or two I'm really curious how much is gonna be fix
I was just looking for your opinion on this lol.
I think they didn’t allow footage of the game is because reviewers were playing a version of the game without the day 1 patch and it was hella buggy. The game with the day 1 patch is how it’s supposed to be shown to the masses, not saying it will fix all bugs but it will hopefully make the game presentable and playable.
Review without footage is inacceptable!!! Specialy nowadays when big publishers buy attention cheap thru content creators.
Why are they hiding from honest criticism? The game is still gonna do numbers.
They shouldn't have released 7780 trailers and announced the game years ago.
Why? It created massive buzz for them which will translate into big sales. Seems like they played it pretty well to me.
@@nogglebeak Bc you can only do that trick once and you ruin your good name.
Of course they wouldnt do that
They want to generated overhype for their game so everyone will buy despite its massive flaws and technical issues
ACG on VR games: Size doesn’t matter, it’s all about the motion in the ocean 💯
Kinda glad you're getting it later cause then you won't have any of these limitations in your review. Sure it'll be a good game, but I'll appreciate the full Karak treatment
They will fix the game. I wish they made better decisions and I know COVID didn’t help but sitting here sending death threats is not the answer. There video game devs stop treating them like they have to fulfill your every need at once
cyberpunk has looked rough from day one im not surprised its riddled with bugs.perfect example of when ambition rivals talent
Everyone remember the hype for Death Stranding when it was mysterious? Then it turns out to be a walking simulator with pissing.
At least Death stranding wasn't full of bugs, not only that describing that as only only a walking simulator with pissing probably means you never even finished the game.
@@Soshiaircon91 no offense but your pretty much ups delivery with little combat and barley cutscenes and I've seen playthroughs
Two words: New Vegas
I know this wouldn't happen but I would LOVE to see a new vegas game made by CDPR
This might be better than New Vegas but New Vegas was ahead of it's time
@@GoodvibesXD The strength of New Vegas is the writing, rpg mechanics, and quests. People look past it's shortcomings because as far as RPG games go, few allow for the share level of replay-ability that it does, and that's just in Vanilla without having mods or DLC.
The verdict is still out on Cyberpunk, but something tells me it's going to be fine, but not the second coming of Christ people make it out to be.
I don't think 2077 is nearly as buggy as NV was on release.
fallout 4 was unplayable on my pc for 2 years lol same with my brother and we had fairly good rigs as well
Returned my copy. Ppl forget it was originally made to release in April for PS4, Xbox, & PC. Ppl defending with “should only play on PS5” have no idea wtf they are talking about.
I played this game, a friend’s copy, and couldn’t take. Even on PS4 Pro, it played like crap. Crashed twice in 3 hours, shot a NPC & he made a T shape and floated through the damn wall! Funniest thing I’ve ever seen but also upsetting. Glad I was able to return it and wait. 8th return at my small local GameStop in a few hours according to the guy that works there.
I’ve seen some leaked bugs and if the day one patch doesn’t address those bugs it’s gonna be disappointed.
Maybe, I want to get it on. PC ans that has different issues than consoles.
Honestly as long as the story and characters are good then I'll be happy. I was able to play fallout new vegas when it first came out and that had a game breaking bug were going trough a door could crash your game
Game breaking bugs aren't acceptable for a full priced game.
A 90 is low. Interesting. In school, I would be HAPPY with a 90!
There's no excuse for releasing a buggy mess of a game. Especially for one of this budget. CDPR doesn't get a free pass for launching something apparently buggier than W3.
I vaguely remember the last time Cyberpunk got delayed that the lead developer (or someone very high up in CD Projekt Red) was on a conference call with investors and VERY TENTATIVELY guaranteed that the game would be ready and playable on December 10th. Bug fixes have been among the main reasons for every delay this year so I'm not entirely surprised the game is still buggy. It's a massive game with an unheard of level of detail packed into it.
Honest question, anyone else notice that cursor dot in the middle of the screen that would kinda flicker when moving around the environment? And is it possible to turn that off cause it was kind of distracting, i found myself focusing on that point rather than looking around more.
