"Cyberpunk 2077 has involved months of crunch, despite past promises" Including, but not limited to, 6 day work weeks for over a year. Sounds like 966 and China. https://www.polygon.com/2020/12/4/21575914/cyberpunk-2077-release-crunch-labor-delays-cd-projekt-red https://www.polygon.com/2020/12/4/21575914/cyberpunk-2077-re... Combine that with the unoptimized, buggy state the game is in. Many streamers had the game crash, forcing them to redo the combat encounter because you can't save in combat.

I have a beefy pc setup that I purchased recently specifically for Cyberpunk 2077 and some other demanding PC games still in development (wink wink Star Citizen) and I have had one non-gameplay bug in my couple of hours of play where elevator doors didn't open for my partner but did for me. The situation is very different for people using the previous gen consoles though, it seems, and I feel bad for them. I have a couple of good friends in this cohort who were very much looking forward to the game.

I'm on 7+ year old hardware and a 1080 ti and it runs fine @ 1440p. Partner has a 980ti and it runs fine @ 1080p. Any bugs I've encountered have been minor. Makes me wonder what people's "rigs" are actually like. It's no Doom Eternal but it plays about as well as GTA at launch going from memory.

  Just curious, where does the fashion of calling screen resolution by vertical dimension come from? Why not a format like 1680x1050?

Its nothing like 966. Poland is in EU and worker rights apply. https://europa.eu/youreurope/business/human-resources/working-hours-holiday-leave/working-hours/index_en.htm https://europa.eu/youreurope/business/human-resources/workin... https://bezprawnik.pl/crunch-cd-projekt-red/ https://bezprawnik.pl/crunch-cd-projekt-red/ Polish law adheres to EU guidelines and limits working hours to 8 hours/day 40 hours/week with no more than 8 hours/week of overtime - paid extra.

  Standard work week is 40 hours: 8 hours for 5 days. 75% of Poles work overtime (2017): https://strefabiznesu.pl/czy-polacy-umieraja-z-przepracowania-nadgodziny-dotycza-75-proc-zatrudnionych-w-polsce/ar/c3-11863364 https://strefabiznesu.pl/czy-polacy-umieraja-z-przepracowani... One fifth (20%) of those working overtime don't receive any compensation (2019): https://bezprawnik.pl/polacy-zmieniaja-prace/ https://bezprawnik.pl/polacy-zmieniaja-prace/ Transport equipment and services is one of Poland's specialties, but even there it mostly competes on price: https://oko.press/polska-i-wegry-przegraly-spor-o-pracownikow-delegowanych-ekspert-powinnismy-sie-cieszyc/ https://oko.press/polska-i-wegry-przegraly-spor-o-pracowniko... (not to mention bus drivers in the capital driving under influence of metaamphetamine to keep up with the pressure) Poland is the China of Europe. But in relations with the real China, Poland is like a colony: exporting raw resources(like copper), importing manufactured goods. And Polish president acts servile towards Xi Jinping. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yfjsZujQqc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yfjsZujQqc
