Quite hard to judge from that footage really, I mean to be honest I didnt see much in that footage that was all that different from the much vilified Assassin Creed games or even The Division. Nothing I really saw in that footage leapt out at me as an example of possibly the greatest game of its genre ever. Looked all very by the numbers normal to me. Still looking forward to it because its hard to really judge it from that slice of gameplay , world looked good, atmosphere was good, but in terms of gameplay/mechanics that footage looked like a game from 10 years ago.

The gameplay of the Witcher 3 wasn't really revolutionary either, worldbuilding was good though

Yeah and thats perhaps one of the reasons its hard to judge from that footage, was short, with timejumps, so was difficult to get a grasp of the depth of the worldbuilding.

Hope it isn't that gimped on pc cos that footage was disappoint

Maybe twitch doesn't help with fps tho

I think regardless if this game is gonna triumph or flop, i will enjoy it regardless as theirs not been a real cyberpunk open world game yet that i know of anyway and im a huge fan of anything cyberpunk.

Youtube or Twitch compression, probably maximum streamed resolution of 1080p and yeah on a console
Not a good metric for how the PC version will look in the slightest

Glad I bought the pc version without a doubt.

Rroff · 18 Nov 2020 at 07:32

Even taking into account being console the combat looked horrendous, well average but horrendous because there is so much better.

CaptainRAVE · 18 Nov 2020 at 07:59

I can't help but think it doesn't actually look all that good. I hope I'm wrong.

Frubeling · 18 Nov 2020 at 08:54

Combat, wassat?
I'll probably be playing as a stealthy netrunner so will never engage in actual combat at all assuming the game doesn't force me

This whole thread *seriously* reminds me of No Man's Sky.

There will almost certainly be a decent, not spectacular game in there, but not anything close to resembling the hype that's building up....

I predict a ridiculous self-entitled backlash the minute this comes out & isn't what some of the posters here have convinced themselves it will be.

I do worry about the combat mechanics and some of the gameplay. I have no doubt it will look amazing but be pretty generic.

StrongSad · 18 Nov 2020 at 10:26

I am still in two minds over this. The frame rates on the video looked poor, twitch can stream at 1080 60fps but I am not sure how to check the VOD.
Regardless, I think it looks OK, not spectacular though.
My biggest issue is it being First-person. I really don't get on with FPS so I am holding back. I will wait to see what the reviews are like and how it runs.

Definitely gonna be the biggest issue
People decided in their heads what this game would be and what it would contain well in advance of anything being set in stone

I mean it's based on the literal genre defining tabletop RPG so yeah of course it's gonna be generic

I am still confident this will live up to my expectations as long as the story is not crap which I doubt it will be.

I wonder when steam pre-load will happen? 2-3 days or before release maybe. I wonder if it will be 100gb+ with high res textures.

Is Covid-70 forcing a lockdown in Cyberpunk?

There's hardly anyone on the streets in those videos.

It's been obvious it would go this way for at least a year at this point...

I didn't like that the background ambient noise was as if the streets were full.

I hope on PC we will have an option to fix that. If not maybe in a later patch with Direct Access.
