Well they're scripted animations and the game is a year off still. The 2018 demo animations we pretty good, I'm sure they will keep improving them until they look just right. Lets hope.

The witcher 3 animations pre release were actually terrible, in 2013 the game was supposed to be 1 year prior to release, and it looked so so bad, like playstation 1 or 2.
Cyberpunk by contrast looks incredible when put in context of how much time there's left to work on it.

Running animations at the start of this video still make me laugh until this day:
aren't the same of the released game? :/ Don't see much difference.
Crazy how expectations have changed since 2015. TW3 was the first real next-gen game in terms of graphics (animations included) together with AC unity and it looked so amazing, "next-gen". We've seen better after that now, the bar is much higher and so are CDPR's budget and know how. That's why we ask them to deliver.
remember this meme?

Things have drastically changed: they're not "a couple of slavs" in public opinion anymore, now CDPR is considered one of the best software house, expectations (and pressure) are high!
Oh no I agree with this comparison you brought up, but that's VERY late footage, remember, Witcher 3 was supposed to launch in 2014. So not only that's late prerelease, but it's actually so late it's after the original target even. (the delay not having to do with animations btw).
What I was talking about, for a more or less comparable case, is a leaked video of the 2013 private demo presentation, which probably isn't online anymore since me and other users helped the company track the links and take them down. But I still have it in my PC, and oh boy... xD
Anyway, the point is that cyberpunk looks way better, and that animations are one of the things that changes the most in quality from early footage to release, so I think the game will be perfectly ok in that department.
I just had a rather strange experience. I went to the Rock, Paper, Shotgun "critique" to post my opinions and speak my peace and apparently, they aren't taking anymore comments. What I did see was a large amount of negativity ( I guess some people have nothing better to do than complain, but I digress.). Sadly, most of the complaints were, well how can I put this: " Shallow, unjustified and put in such a fashion that I would hope CDPR doesn't take any of it seriously.

It was also a familiar fixture in the pnp game in the form of the Kindachi Momowhip.

1. Let's leave politics away. CDPR is happy with their E3 experience, no need to taint it with groundless worry. Last year people were all a-flutter about the twitter thing and CDPR proceeded as planned anyway.
Please don't use worry about CDPR goals as a platform for anything, thanks. That applies to everyone reading this, by the way.
2. Before the Kendachi Monowhip, it was also in the corebook as the "Slice 'N Dice."
No politics intended. I was referring to some rather shallow complaints, that's all.
Yeah, we're a bit trigger happy on this subject recently. Here and Discord. If it looks like a duck and talks a like a duck, we probably figure it's turkey-shaped enough and open fire.
I just watched Johnny Mnemonic again. Silly, terrible movie (Henry Rollins steals it and Beat Takeshi as well) but some great scenes. Monowhips are just crazy scary.
The pinnacle of cheese 90s western cyberpunk but also one of the most cyberpunk movies out there. Love it.
And it really isn't a good movie.
"Get rich or die trying" on the girl's jacket. That will be the motto for the first character I'll play. A cyberninja, because that's how I like to play FPS.
Followed by completely different approaches and personalities with the next characters (stealthy netrunner/techie and loud&dumb tank).

This is Sasquatch, leader of the Animals. They look like a combination booster/dorpher gang with a focus on hypersteroids.
Here's Brigitte of the Voodoo Boys, who have evolved from their 2020 roots into a group of community protecting technological geniuses.
Speaking of Netrunners, here's T-Bug.
And finally, here's Dexter DeShawn, the Fixer. Despite rumors to the contrary, he's not played by Mike Pondsmith.

Regarding the whole minimap thing, Lilayah's Cat on the Discord (a moderator who saw the private 50m demo) confirmed that the minimap is based on what augmentations you have.
