I'm sorry, the game on PC was a crappy bugfest. And as for being "impossible" on consoles... Isn't it effectively GTA in a different setting? GTA managed to run

I'm sorry, the game on PC was a crappy bugfest. And as for being "impossible" on consoles... Isn't it effectively GTA in a different setting? GTA managed to run fine, and Cyberpunk could, but they weren't able to reach it.

GTA is a crappy bugfest as well, the graphics are very outdated, and the NPCs are quite limited in what they do; the world isn't realistic at all and frame rates routinely drop for no real reason. I haven't played Cyberpunk 2077 (yet), but I highly doubt it's as simple a game and as limited as GTA, which I have played a lot. I think it failed in part because they tried to port the game to those consoles, and it was just too complex for them, after seeing gameplay footage from it a while ago.

  GTA V is rock solid, better written, better tuned, and more immersive than Cyberpunk. Of any mechanic I'm aware of that both games have, Cyberpunk's implementation is not as good. Compare being chased by the police in GTA vs Cyberpunk for example.

    really? it took a player upset with its very slow load times to figure out how the code works and made the loading times way better.... a very simple thing if you had the source code to do and devs never bothered, online is a horrible mess everyone cheats, first person game play they added is horribly with its massive input lag, let alone trying to get online was a joke.

      GTA Online is a mess but offline is completely fine, and has a quite a bit of art to it whereas Cyberpunk's world just feels like it's barely keeping hold of the reigns. The game is simply better made than Cyberpunk. It's not really a knock against CDPR, it's their first attempt up against rockstar, but there is simply not enough polish, not enough game design etc. For me to say anything else. I wanted to love cyberpunk, but the moment I picked my faction and then was immediately funneled into the same story as everyone else it kind of set the tone for the rest of the game. I sincerely hope they keep developing it but at the moment I can't bring myself to play at all vs. GTA which is very satisfying just to drive about a bit before I go to bed.

  The NPCs in Cyberpunk are extremely limited in what they do, the world isn't realistic at all, and the frame rates drop for no real reason. It's a simple game, and as limited as GTA is.

GTA is an 8 year old game, it was released for PS4 and XBox One 7 years ago. I’m not sure how that compares?

  Believe it or not it was released on Xbox 360 and PS3 as well.

  It’s still super popular, more so than Cyberpunk and did all the stuff Cyberpunk shipped with, better, a long time before it. It does help that Rockstar have been basically working on making that kind of game for decades whereas CDPR haven’t.
