Well, I was not going to write about this but I need to share it with people who I think had love and hope for this game. I am a complicated person for games, not because I have a huge technical expectation (I spend a lot of time playing early access games made by 4 people) but because my tastes are very limited. I do not like medieval fantasy or contemporary shooter or practically any setting that is not something sci-fi. Specifically, I am very fanatic of everything that is cyberpunk (Blade Runner, cyberpunk 2020, necromundia, deus ex, neuromancer ect.).
My friends are lucky because they like middle earth, modern shooter and they have a huge range of games to enjoy, I don't.
8 years ago I saw the trailer and I thought "At last, my time has come, a triple A game made by a company known for the quality of its products is going to develop a game set in a cyberpunk universe" I felt that justice was being done. some way.
Honestly I usually feel relegated by the industry, I love to play games but I enjoy very few.
Each trailer, each article, each post that I read I felt that I was getting closer to the retribution, at my time to enjoy a game made by cd projekt red, that development company that everyone talks about.
Time passed very slow, but delays never bothered me (I already experienced what happens with releasing a game long before it is ready) if it was for me they could have released it in 3 years and I would never complain because I would know that the objective is the best possible product and what they wanted to do was ambitious.
Then the day came.
I decided to buy it at GOG because I had no doubts that the cd projekt red was worth it every dollar, even without having played it it was a universal constant, it could not go wrong, it was going to be a before and after.
I start the game almost crying (Mine is somewhat pathological but hey others cry because their team won the championship or whatever, I get excited with video games) my first minutes before the graphic splendor, the detail of the aesthetic section was " It's beautiful, sublime, I can't absorb so much beauty "and I start to play it, dwelling on every detail, reading every shard, having dinner watching the game's TV. Until the prologue ends and the disappointment began.
I began to understand that Cyberpunk 2077 was a trap, it was beautiful on the outside but empty on the inside. It was also a mess with graphics of the next generation but with features that will be abandoned 3 or 4 years ago for being generous. I found a universe populated by npc without a soul, without intelligence whose absence I would not notice, they could all disappear and it would really be practically the same.
I'm not going to go much deeper into each section because there are thousands of posts that explain everything that is wrong (And I'm not talking about bugs or performance).
I just asked GOG for a refund and I hope I can get my money back.
I do not do it angry (not now I recognize that yesterday I was very angry) and I know that the company does not owe me anything (except my money for an incomplete and defective product) but the sadness and disappointment I feel is irreparable.
(If you got here thanks for reading it and I look forward to hearing your opinions (Also my English is not the best but I try))
