    I don’t think they would have had the reception they did if they didn’t release it for older gen hardware.

    You’re probably right. I’m sure that factored in. Who knows how much dev time went to old console hardware that was never going to run the game well.

    I had a similar experience playing on PC with what was a nearly brand new PC build. I ran into a few bugs but nothing broke the game. It was a lot of fun.

    I think many people took issue with the launch features CDPR promised that weren’t delivered until much later. I haven’t kept track but maybe some weren’t delivered at all.

      Having never played it and largely ignored it beyond the hype and disappointment … what kind of game is it?

      Like play style wise, is it fast paced or slow? Strategic or arcade?

      I know it’s a RPG of sorts but …. ?

        First-person action RPG. Main weapons are guns, but there are quite a few melee options. Gameplay-wise, it’s honestly probably closest to something like Watch_Dogs though obviously different in enough ways to count. Somewhere between Watch_Dogs and Farcry 5.

          I was really really hoping you were going to say it played like deus ex, I had my fingers crossed.

          Unsure how watch dogs plays, but I’m thinking a more interact with the things gta?

            Eh… Yeah, add Deus Ex in there as well. It’s a nice mish-mash of a lot of things that come together to form a really satisfying, cohesive whole.

            Kinda like GTA but an RPG with “overload the enemy’s cybernetics and set them on fire” instead of “cast a fireball that sets enemies on fire” type of ‘magic’
