Cyberpunk is the ~~soul~~ sole reason I don’t preorder games anymore. Hype be damned.
No man's sky for me. Both are amazing games at current stage but with shit releases.
if you where hyped for NMS release it still isn't the game you where sold and never will be.
Same for cyberpunk
My experience with people who have played Cyberpunk is being told that if I don't expect it to be the game they advertised it was going to be, that its great.
Which makes no sense to me.
Thank you for being a logical person.
If I remember correctly, it got hyped as the procedural generation not following the usual formulaic approach, where 'new' species are created by just propping tusk C onto body shape F etc..
It's basically a meme at this point to link to this, but Crowbcat got you covered

It's a great time waster, but as far as interesting and engaging gameplay? I'm pretty sure minesweeper still has it beat in that department.
You are 100% correct.
*sole
Ha, yes. Thanks for the correction.
The Australia tax is why I don't buy games at all, much less pre-pay for the ones I might want.
Hype is literally the only thing you miss out on by not playing games on release. If you get used to existing 3 years behind the release schedule, your gaming experience is vastly improved.
