Help me understand my obsession with Cyberpunk 2077. I've played for 1400 hours, done every start, every ending, 100% it three times, tried every playstyle, never used a single mod, and I'm already thinking about my next playthrough before I've finished the one I am on.
maybe you're just a cp fanatic
you like game
>>735015298>every endingThat just requires you to reload your final save 5 times.
>>735015415you didn't beat the game 5 times.
>>735015298Which build did you have the most fun with?
>>735015298You like to "grind" and clean up busy maps filled with some of the most rudimentary shit.Try Ubisoft games.
>>735015471Hacker with the wire lassos, air dashing and double jump.
>>735015298It's the unironic spiritual sequel to VTM but with good gameplay.The story is good. The characters are interesting and involving. The gameplay is well thought out and detailed. The level design is superb allowing you to play whatever style you want and react to it accordingly.It's an incredible game and like VTMB is mired in studio mismanagement, constant errors and massive levels of hubris from upper management.But worst of all since most of the people who were involved in it and worked on it have now been fired and the main dev studio moved to Boston US, you will never get a game like it again.You can see this in the expansion which was written before the initial game was released.Incredible story, mired and bogged down in US cultural prudish thinking riding the coattails of incredible polish story writing that is now lost into the annals of gaming history.There will never be another game like this and anything NuCDPR produces will be watered down puritan US garbage.Enjoy.
>>735015585They pale in comparison to the majesty that is Cyberpunk.
>>735016086what is majestic about the game? its extremely safe by the books as typical of AAA.
try completing the game with every dub it has
>>735015298Fun things are fun. Simple as.
Its good
>>735015298no idea. can't imagine playing a mediocre game like this more than once.
The fact that you're an actual mindless, tasteless normalfag drone doing only what you're told.>>735015652HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>735015652It's also like Deus Ex and GTA. You feel like James Bond crossed with Q. A smooth talking Terminator that performs adjustments on your own software. It's the most atmospheric and immersive game ever made. The lore is deep deep, the characters and story are gut punches. You just want to be in Nightcity, soaking it in. Fear and excitement is palpable contemplating what could happen if the Wall goes down and the rogue ai become free to unleash an apocalypse on the world. It's CD Projekt Red's Fallout New Vegas. Every act of discussing why the game is so great just undersells it. There's still so much untapped potential in this settting, and in this game. Modders could have a field day, without even adding new areas, just placing content in the preexisting world. The content could be doubled to great effect, yet you would never need it because the game is a masterpiece the way it is already. It's Preem.
The AI ruins the game honestly. They have old man reflexes even on the highest difficulty. So to make the enemies more difficult you have to rainbow six vegas them by having one shot kill.
>>735015298I have no idea
>>735015652>spiritual sequel to VTMBHow come? I remember doing the float hacking mission by killing everybody at the compound, then doing the subsequent mission.I then tried to do it completely stealthily on my second playthrough and the subsequent mission played out exactly the same. I feel like they initially wanted to have more paths and consequences but dropped that idea mid-development, hence why saving Brick in the prologue affects how the mission at Totentanz plays out and it's a relatively small detail to account for, compared to main missions that are to be tackled back to back.
>>735015298it's a masterpieceliterally one of the best video games of all time
>>735015298On one hand I wish I was as automatically dedicated to a game as you are, but on the other I wouldn't have time or motivation for my other hobbies. Have fun.
>>735015298It's the best RPG so far of the century
>>735015587>hackerLIES, YOU LIE. YOU NEVER EVEN PLAYED THE GAMETHE ONLY OBVIOUS ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION IS CYBER SAMURAI WITH SANDEVISTAN
>>735015298It's not an RPG unfortunately. It's not like New Vegas. It's not even Fallout 3, barely any skill checks in dialogue and the ones that exist are mostly for flavour. It's Fallout 4. Mindless shooting of retarded samey enemies, collecting garbage to sell sprinkled with some RP-light designs.
>>735015298>never used a single modWhat the fuck is wrong with you indeed.
>>735015652>The story is goodIt's about a head tumor that spawns a B tier actor poorly acting a poorly programmed Chatbot.
>>735015298God I hate these kind of UIs. I'm almost getting a headache just from looking at that screenshot. Luckily they can usually be disabled but still, it's insane that the game looks like that by default.
>>735017120I haven't either, and I've beaten it multiple times. Never felt the need for one, really.Though I'm always open to new things. Got anything fun to add?
>>735015298Same reason why there are people with thousands of hours on slop RPGs like Skyrim
>>735015652>ut worst of all since most of the people who were involved in it and worked on it have now been fired? many key members are still there, including some of the main people behind Phantom Liberty. You read too much culture warmongering
>>735015298IDK how you got 1400 hours out of it without doing stuff like photomode or challenge runs even with the starts, endings, and dlc. I love the game and have like 500 hours in it but I tinker with mods and like doing the photomode stuff and make youtube videos.
>>735017665>behind phantom libertyWrong. Phantom liberty was basically done before 2077 released and much of it was revealed during the hacking scandal they went through soon after release. Large amounts were fired during 2077 development and bunch after it failed on release.The move to the Boston office took out basically all the key talent leaving only one or two management types who went there to uptake the new dev office.This doesn't even account for the fact at how the CDPR management systematically fired their polish workers to hire americans during 2077's development.CDPR is dead.
>>735015298I can't play this fucking shit, or any game that replaces AA with that fucking retarded AI ghosting or upscaling shit. You get pixelated blops even at fucking ultra settings. My hardware is topshelf, the game runs fine without stressing the system at all, but everything just looks like shit from 10 meters away.How do I fix this. If I can fix this, I will play it again.
>>735017849the directors and main writers of the DLC are literally working on Witcher 4, and you will see in that game credit that a good part of the studio is still there, but go on, continue to doom post
>>735015298I noticed you didn't mention very hard difficulty. Pathetic.
>>735017958That explains why Witcher 4's teaser was such a shitfest, why the entire premise of it is fucking retarded and why it's going to flop as much as a giant full of basedfanboys can flop.
>>735017958>EVEN THOUGH CDPR FIRE 70% OF ITS EMPLOYEES THROUGH 2077's DEVELOPMENT ITS STILL CDPR!!!!You were already wrong about the DLC and when it was written and completed. Keep seething and coping. >writersWrong. >directorsWrong.Honestly you should kill yourself.
>>735018106>>735018039you care more about culture war than actual video games. or any of the developers
>>735016956Hacker does the most damage, you can eliminate a group of enemies without drawing a weapon with a viral nuke that spreads among them.>>735017020If Cyberpunk isn't an RPG nor is New Vegas, sorry I do not make the rules I enforce them.
>>735018159I care about the actual developers who were treated like shit by the CDPR founders and management not the american faggots wearing the company like a skin suit now.
>>735017262this nigga hates being informed about status
>>735018196>Hacker does the most damage, you can eliminate a group of enemies without drawing a weapon with a viral nuke that spreads among them.might as well just not play the game then or get a mod that gets rid of enemies
>>735017751Share some of your videos anon
>>735017952fix yourself anon
>>735018159If that is the cope you must tell yourself, then so be it. No one wants a bad Witcher 4, but it is going to be bad, because you aren't Geralt, and Ciri isn't a witcher, plus it's tripling down on "muh-gritty medieval cowboy" setting without any real substance. This is veering so far off of Sapkowski's books that they will have to come up with shit themselves, and they won't be able to, we know this, we've seen this over the past 30 decades: 1 in 5000 games with original writing is decent enough to stand.
>>735018294>might as well add a mod that does the same exact thing the gameplay already doesjust how dumb are you
>>735018356I'm not into drugs. Tell me how to fix the game in the options menu, so it doesn't look like shit.
>>735018417300fps lmao
>>735018406you missed the point if you can just kill a bunch of enemies with one move, why not make the game even easier and just get rid of the enemies altogether?
>>735018417>level 74This nigga is levelmaxxing
>>735018518>you missed the pointyou're dumb bro, like really dumb bro
if you were teleported into the world of the game and were forced to join one of the gangs, which one would you pick?
>>735018417this is why nobody should mod Cyberpunk
>>735018624Well, I'm a slav so there's not much choice there.
>>735018624Arasaka, any other answer is fake
>>735018624the ones who want to replace shit human body parts with augs and live perptually on drugs
>>735018624All the gangs are psychotic. The best bet you have is leaving NC and going into the NUSA where it's more stable.
>>735015298autism
>>735018683That's not a gang though.
>>735015326
>>735018727corpos are just gangs with more money and power, Ara literally works with the Tiger Claws too
"tell don't show" is not got writing morons. You can argue about the other points, but this one is objectively awful.
>>735018727Legal backing gang.
TW3 did everything better than CP2077
>>735018776They just have influence over them but at that point you could argue that governments are gangs as well, since they also have hierarchy. Militech over 6th streetArasaka over TigersI think there's a log you can find on one of the Scav bosses hinting at their group working with some local organization as well.
>>735017849>Phantom liberty was basically done before 2077 released and much of it was revealed during the hacking scandal they went through soon after release.PROOF? BASTARD BITCH!!!
>>735018818Show dont tell is for midwits and pseuds
>>735018948Except for everything*
>>735018952I think it's implied they have links with the Soviet corpos (the USSR still exist in Cyberpunk too)
>>735019000nta but maps, the script and a ton of assets were leaked when they had a massive hack after the release.
>>735019086That too but I was talking about groups inside the NC.Like thishttps://cyberpunk.fandom.com/wiki/Yelena_Sidorova
>>735019146tbf considering it's almost it's own little game and with how games take so long to be made, it make sense they started on it quickly, probably would have released earlier if not for all the fixing they needed to do for the base game and all the canceled project surrounding the game
The multiplayer won't be cut from the sequel as they recruited for it a few month ago, I hope they will make something interesting and not just "GTA but first person"
>>735019314There were plans for 3 expansion for 2077 just like w3. PL was the first and almost completed. They were working on the second one before the refunds and everything basically shut everything down. They spent so long fixing the base game they eventually decided to only release one expansion and move on.
>>735019368its unfortunate but its really hard to sell a game to investorys without a multiplayer component, too high profit potential
>>735019445It's not for investment, they really wanted a multiplayer for the first game too but it got canceled because they got too much issues with the base game, alongside the other DLC plans. But it was something they really wanted from even the initial plan.If anything, it's very rare today to see games with both multiplayer and single player. nowadays it's much more common to see only one and not the other included.
>>735019594cdpr did the usual things to appease investorsthey made the card game in an attempt to get hearthstone moneythey explored the cp multiplayer because it was an obvious way to add value to investors
>>735017189>It's about a head tumor that spawns a B tier actor poorly acting a poorly programmed Chatbot.relatable
>>735019368Multiplayer won't be this because it's not something the general audience likes but it SHOULD be giant corpo war like Planetsideeither that or extraction shooter trauma team vs Scav, the thing to extract are patients and medical resources.
>>735019368>cyberpunk multiplayerHow's that gonna work? It seems like it would only really work well with the RP community.
>>735019702even if it did appeal, I think they still did it out of passion.
>tower endingi just wanted my V to live, why do they have to give us a bittersweet ending like that?
>>735019846That's Cyberpunk baby
>>735019846You die in the first two hours.
>>735015652>The story is goodthe heist is good, panam is good, the DLC is good, playing as silverhand rocked, but rest of the story and characters are utter garbage and uncooked, the ending is stupid beyond belief
>>735019368If we're talking hopes, what I want is a polished sandbox that reacts to all manner of player decisions. Essentially recreate the tabletop in video game form, with the setting being the ultimate dungeon master.
>>735019146>maps, the script and a ton of assets were leakedany differences with what we got in the final release?
>>735019754It would work really well, consider all the missions where you pal around with a character talking on the drive over, and then tackling an objective together before parting ways. In multiplayer you do that with an actual person, and you need not part ways after a mission, you continue to pal around. Don't forget that these games are based on a tabletop RPG that is meant to be played with a group of players.
>>735019846Become a legend, burn twice as bright half as long choom.
I hope the multiplayer will have factions with all the corpos and gangs available, or at least the most important ones or more interesting gameplaywise
>>735020050Very little. The plane crash map and stadium were released almost a month after the game came out. Initially people thought that Kurt Hansen was blackhand. But we knew about songbird and how she would take over johnny as the chip companion etc. There was a lot more leaked including the crab bot model and significant elements of the script. This was all a couple of years before PL released and soon after 2077 released.
>>735015585cyberpunk 2077s side jobs and gigs are much more purposeful than ubislop
>>735020193That would be a great ending, unfortunately you live in all endings and become just another mercenary when you go against Arasaka unless you suck and die during the reaper
>>735019903The rest of the game is just you coming to terms with that.>>735019921>panam is goodAbsolute shit, to be honest. I don't understand how anybody can like any of the "love" interests in this game. Panam is what I'd write if I was 17 and thought of a hot/edgy/sailormouthed idea of a gf. I don't know what it is about these love interests in this game but none stuck with me. Oh, and on top of that, that entire Badlands area and the Nomads arc sucked fucking asshole. Almost single-handedly made me not wanna replay the game.
>>735015298sounds like youre a dumb fuck npci hope you get cancer for playing that trash ass gamehonestly anyone else butthurt thta gaming was taken over by a combo of pretentious millenials and annoying ass esports zoomerslike theres still some good shit to play but holy fuck it was so much better in like 2004 lolcuz it wasnt as mainstream.like we literally have gay sex simulators as the most popular (most botted) games
>>735017120I started modding after 400 hours and trying to troubleshoot issues made me lose interest in the game.
>>735018250Yes, completely unironically. Just make the screen red or something when I'm about to die. I don't need to be constantly reminded about 16 separate actions I can perform along with their respective keybinds, nor do I need a minimap like some kind of blind retard, nor do I need to be reminded about the quest I'm currently on, etc. Then again, I can't complain too much since they can all be disabled.
>>735020346I agree Panam is bit shallow but she represents the idea of a rebellious and headstrong nomad very well. I wished the writers didn't fuck over Saul though. It was either Panam or I make a fem V and hook up with a depressed Judy and she leaves
I actually forgot, is there any missions where you fight the Mox or are they the only "friendly only" gang due to their backstory? I think some can rarely attack you outside of missions but that's it
>>735020301There's also the timeskip ending where it shows Militech taking over Night City after Arasaka pulled out. Arasaka got fucked there too.
>>735020131I feel like you'd have to have group oriented mission designs made from scratch and at that point you're arguing whether the game is really singleplayer oriented or not. Unless they design missions and content specifically for the multiplayer, like GTA 5 did with Heists.
>>735015298Please tell me this isn’t your actual screenshot and you didn’t spend 1,400 hours playing this game on those graphics settings…
>>735020346It's easy to understand, Panam feels like a real character. So does Judy but she is lesbian.
>>735020597low iq subhumanite
>>735020597you know hdr 4k screenshots of the game are about 30mb so you compress them?
>>735020494I like to know when my stuff is coming off cooldown so I can line up attacks.
>>735015298The game is piss easy, even on the hardest difficulty so as soon as you get a good gun it's basically a power fantasy simulator in which you're an unstoppable killing machine that pulverizes his enemies without breaking a sweat.The balancing is so shit that as soon as you have your first sniper rifle all challenge is basically over. I ran three sniper rifles to mitigate the slow reload and was basically one-shotting enemies as fast as I could shoot the rifle.Plus this game is very immersive in terms of acoustic effects, music and graphics and is kind of the perfect "comfy" game that can be played even when stoned out of ones mind for maximal immersion. It's still kind of shit as a "game" since most enemies are dumb as rocks but as an immersive walking simulator with story elements it's serviceable. The voice acting in the DLC is somehow way better than the voice acting in the original game tho. Keanu Reeves is a great human being but quite mid as an actor as he's too slow to play dynamic roles. He's perfect to play a chill or stoned character (perfect fit in "a scanner darkly") but I find he was kind of a miss-cast as Silverhand.
>>735020593I don't feel that way at all. It makes no difference in a sandbox where you can tackle a mission from multitudes of angles and playstyles; if there's another person tagging along with you and tackling it too. All you might need is to place more enemies and obstacles in a difficulty scaling.
>>735020597Not enough raytracing for your liking, your whiness?
>>735020692>it's basically a power fantasy simulator in which you're an unstoppable killing machinemore of this pls
>>735020543Arasaka should pull out and shat on, because they must be completely retarded to let A) a bunch of desert hobos blow them up or B) a random merc blow them up walking through the front door. Like they forgot to call MaxTac who showed up at a random robbery yet refused to come to help them during a raid?????
>>735015298I can’t really tell you either. I’ve played it for many hours myself, but there was always a slight disappointment. I think it’s because it poorly copies and mixes several games and I’m reminded of that every second I play.
>>735020880Doom2016 is also pretty much this. The prefect game to switch off the brain and kill virtual demons instead of real people and getting in trouble for it.
>>735021136Not poorly, it does the blending excellently.
>>735021327I enjoyed it somewhat, but it's missing the real girth and breadth of a power fantasy. Cyberpunk does it perfectly.
>>735015298>Help me understand my obsession with Cyberpunk 2077.I have similar obsession too, I can't stop shitting on trannyrunner only because it shits on shitjeet's big clog full of pile of cowshit One of the worst anime of my life and I had seen least 1000+ whole life, simply zero idea what triggerniggers thinking! Fucking niggersIt should have been trigger, not Tokyo animation. Baka shinji
>>735015298I really like the setting and all that. I just lost Interest after the first heist and haven't picked it back up. Should I keep going?
>>735021383Yeah, well, CP is much more pretty but I prefer the movement speed and snappiness of the controls in Doom2016. Plus the gore sequences are really great in Doom.
>>735021489One thing baffles me is that even og 4chan & 5ch oldfags liked this abomination, it has dogshit background from videogame, dogshit suicidal zoomzoomplaylist tier ost, shitty animation, pacing problems etc.It felt like everyone psyoping my brain in 2022
>>735018472
>>735020692The game is way more fun with added difficulty mods, not increasing HP, just simply allowing enemies to use abilities on par with yours, not pause while attacking, and go full auto when they should be able to.
>>735021489>One of the worst anime of my lifeholy bad taste
>>735015298Maybe you just like the game? It's a mediocre game but it can happen
>>735015298I think it's the comfy setting.
>>735016182What do you mean by safe?Safe gamplay? yeah it's rather generic and very easy even on hardest and can be beaten with only cowadooty guns.Safe world? nah, they just don't put the fucked up shit for everyone to see on the surface. There is tons of fucked up shit like the psych ward that offers a corporation to rape all their inmate patients to impregnate them so the corp can do clinical trials on the fetuses for a drug test.
>>735021846God bless you I wanted to have this image for this doo doo dick in the booty negro
>>735021527Oh yeah, it seems pretty common for people to put the game down once, and get hooked the next time they pick it up.>>735021546The movement in Cyberpunk is on a whole other level. Spec into the right stuff and equip the right cyberware and you will see. Plus the gore is much better too, you can blow heads off, blow off limbs, and you can pick up the remaining torso and dick around too. The gore is on point.
>>735016086AC2 is good.Try deus ex games.
>>735022060Cyberpunk is open world Deus Ex.
>>735021867I used to play with the "realistic damage" mod back in 1.6 and it made the fight much more fun and less bullet-spongy. The weapons felt more serious and one had to use cover effectively to not get downed by multiple enemies, felt pretty good. The LMG is so weak in the original it's pathetic but with that mod it was a viable option, but still not a great one. Best were weapons with good handling since the one who shoots first, wins, as it should be. The revolvers were amazing with the right build.
>>735022130Im not sure what your point is and how to respond to that.
>>735021867Also having a 0.2x multiplier on all XP actually lets you have fun instead of making you boringly overpowered after the first few hours
>>735022014>pick up torsooh, that might be new, maybe? I remember decapitations with Katanas and cutting off limbs but not more (it's been a while tho).
>>735021489Basically the same reason why every melodramatic anime movie is considered a 8.5/10 or higher. It just hits the right emotional notes in a couple scenes.
>>735015298Damn, that's pathetic.
>>735022287Yeah idk why you would want to, but after blowing off their legs you can just pick up their mutilated corpse lol.
>>735022264So instead you remain boringly underpowered
the shooting in this game feels really good. better than most games
>>735022532damn, 16 year old me would have loved that.Do civilians react when you toss the body in front of them or are they still retarded?
>>735015298Im jealous, i can't play a game more than 15 minutes without being bored...
>>735022170Looking back there were so many immersion breaking game designs that mods had to fix. You shouldn't be overpowered in cyberpunk, you don't have mystical powers, only the same equipment and cyberware purchased off the fucking counter that anybody else can acquire. Second the city is completely dead and you're telling me gangs aren't openly at each other's throats, and cops allowing a wanted serial killer to ride around with no consequence despite a million cameras everywhere. Third if quick hacks was this easy and you could buy any of them off the counter then any low level thug could just fry people for fun. Doesn't make sense at all.
First game syndrome
>>735019921>the heist is good"AGHHH me chonchita I.ve geen shot in the el chest. I am dieing""Who fuckin cares you have a healing inhaler which can heal explosion damage and some headshots"His death was retarded
>jackie can wield pistols akimbo>final perk for pistols is hip-fire specific>player can't dual wield pistols
>>735015298It’s just a fun game is all
>>735015298At least use the mod to remove mods from weapons, i play on the console and this the only mod I wanted
I never played it but I sunk 300 hours in the witcher 3, I should probably try it out one day.
>>735023046They really did him dirty looking back at it. Replacing Jackie with chungus was not a good idea as your best bro. I might be one of the few who couldn't stand Keanu Reeves so I made Johnny into a girl with a mod.
>>735022748oh the NPC's are very retarded lol, but they react if you pull a gun on them, they put their hands up and whimper, if you shoot anyone everyone else takes off running, if you shoot a car they floor it, if a cop sees you with a bloody torso they don't bat an eye, if you stare at them they draw their weapons, it's very here and there
>>735022783Take the beer pill, anon
>>735022916You can't buy quick hacks, you have to acquire them from loot
>>735015298congrats, op, you have autism
>>735023560Prepare for your new addiction
>>735015298Fine guess I'll do another playthrough. Need some mods first though I'll just use that Night City Reborn collection.
>>735018417thanks ripper doc
>>735023046He deserved more time to develop into a character that you actually felt was your friend. Another couple low stakes missions that ease you into the mechanics would have made more sense than him handing off a combat training chip to you just before a job.And then dying.
Okay but how many times have you fapped to Rebecca? You're not a true CP fan until you've done at least that much
>>735015298jesus christ thats sad. i can't think of a worse game to get that obsessed with. you have terrible taste, and i hope your hands get chopped off sometime so you can never play video games or jerk off ever again
>>735024035I did, now im healing from gastritis
i played TW3 3 times with all the DLC 100% and even that only took about 600 total hours, and that was spaced out over almost a decade from release until 2023 the last time I played it. You are mentally ill.
