I just want to say I love CDPR.
With that being said, I'm going to be brutally honest.
I don't want an apology.
I don't want to be told that patches are coming without knowing what they will really do for me.
I don't want to be told to turn my computer on and off again.
I don't want to be told to update my graphics card firmware (huge risk of permanently breaking my computer, happened to countless people in the past)
I don't want to be told to update my operating system (another huge risk of permanently breaking my computer, happened to countless people in the past)
I don't want to be told that I should do anything on my end, especially when plenty of other people using similar or worse hardware and software than me are sitting on their computer or another platform right now and having fun playing the game, while I can't.
I can't help but feel in my honest opinion, that this whole issue is somehow a very indirect and unintentional way of telling me that it is somehow my fault as the customer that I can't even get past the desktop without a crash on launch "Flatlined" error. (My fault for buying the game?) At best, I feel like this is a desperate attempt to buy time, while being about as transparent as the lead refrigerator from indiana jones and the crystal skull ( a horrible sequel that accidentally perfectly outlines my disappointment with the handling of this situation )
The Nvidia website does not even have the update for my graphics card listed under my own graphics card tab in the website, it knows my card, and then only gives me options for which my computer rejects and tells me are the wrong ones. I'm glad that I didn't get that far, because I'm sure something would have happened anyway. My computer could run The Witcher 3 and Kingdom Come Deliverance on almost max settings.
You can not possibly expect me to believe that my computer can run those games, and then tell me that I need to make very risky changes to my own computer to get Cyberpunk2077 to even START.
There is no excuse for why C2077 can't run on my computer.
Listen CDPR, I may have purchased your game, but I am not made out of money, nor do I have infinite amounts of it. I am not a tech wizard or a netrunner. If my computer breaks, that's it. I can't just go and buy a new one. I'm not rich. If I follow this advice, then I will be out the money I paid for the game, and out of the money for paying a tech wizard to repair my computer ( and then I have to pray the tech wizard doesn't damage something else in my computer while they fix the other issues with it ) or even out the money to buy an entire new computer. In addition to that, I can kiss goodbye the refund, since how will I request a refund if I can't use the internet because my computer is broken? I will be eating nothing but rice and beans for over one year if this happens to me, so I can't risk it.
I don't want apologies.
I just want to know- that no matter what- CDPR will fix this.
I would greatly appreciate highly specific promises and truly honest and transparent action on your part CDPR.
I expect this of you because I RESPECT you, and I know you are capable of great things.
I want to be honest here some more and say this: I don't believe any of this is your fault.
I know this isn't the real you.
Something else outside of your control that cares not for you or your fans is responsible.
That I truly believe, but what, I can not say.
Just please, please, make this right.
I waited years for Success.
I waited years for Victory.
By the will of God, may I never wait again.
