There needs to be a case study on how this disaster of a product got redeemed by, out of all things, an animated web series. Strange times we live in.

- robswc 4y agoI honestly think a decent chunk of it was the volatility in "hype" and passed time. It was way over-hyped (by CDPR, journalists, fans, etc). Then when it released, it was dog-piled an (IMO) unreasonable amount. [1] It was then pretty easy to trend back up to where it is today. There was always an amazing game behind the disaster of the release. Plus, now many people have better hardware and a lot of bugs did get fixed. But yes, the anime definitely was the catalyst, imo. [1] I just remember seeing a lot of complaints over silly bugs. Yea, it sucks that its in a AAA game but as someone that's played these massive RPGs for over a decade now, it will always happen. I feel people really got hit with an availability bias. Not denying bugs existed but I never encountered any that truly ruined my experience.
