The entire IGN article is just a copy paste of the original announcements from Valve:

WTF IGN

NocturnalMorning, do games w Skull and Bones Has Yet Another New Release Window

Is this bcz they found out nobody wants to play a black flag game without the black flag part? Trailer got a really poor reception so they tried to address the criticism?

DingoBilly, do games w Sony Defends PS Plus Price Rises - IGN

I just subscribed for 4 or so years ahead at original prices. Will decide in 4 years if it’s still worth it, but for me the free games are easily worth the price of entry.

I’m not sure it really needs to be debated - prices have gone up, they raised prices. Either pay or don’t pay. It’s no big deal at end of day.

Only thing that is keeping me from buying a ps5 is the update times. I have a ps4pro and i once had to wait 5 fucking hours for it to update a few games (i think 10 or so)even with a ssd installed. Did that change with the ps5 or is it still horrible?

EveningNewbs,

It’s much faster.

If you don’t like pvp and you’ve finished the campaign, is there any reason to reinstall this?

PeterPoopshit,

If you’re ever stranded on a desert island, you have nothing but a computer and a bandwidth capped internet connection, download this game until your ISP comes after you and then you’ll be saved

GuStJaR,

😂

Hadriscus,

Bandwidth capped ? I too was around in the nineties 😅

PeterPoopshit,

Is this some kind of European joke I’m too American to understand? In the US the only way you’re getting internet service without a bandwidth cap is if you either pay a fortune for it or if you live so far out in the country they haven’t even invented bandwidth caps yet.

Hadriscus,

I was just reacting to your joke lol

I didn’t think a bandwidth cap was real. like, today ? there are bandwidth caps ? that’s mad. Is there no competition to fight this ?

Zion,

In my European country, there are no bandwidth caps for DSL or fibre connections. But if you’re not in a town (which most of us aren’t) and can only get internet via a 4g (or rarely 5g) connection, you have to live with a shitty 700GB cap, which is fucking ludicrous.

PeterPoopshit,

700 fucking gigabytes over 5g? That is fucking ludicrous. Around here you’re lucky to get a 7gb cap on a 5g plan but I think some people have cellular caps as high as 40gb.

Zion,

I was talking about broadband at home via a 4g/5g router, not on a phone. They offer plans specifically for people who want internet at home, but who can’t get DSL/fibre.

Phones usually have a lower cap, like 50>200GB. I get 50GB with my phone provider for instance.

@Gordon_Freeman@kbin.social avatar

The ones who spent money on the store are the users, not the devs. And they are failing at bringing the people who would give them the money they want

Sethayy,

by not having a service as good as the competition, thanks to having no devs working on it…

Staple_Diet, do games w Activision Blizzard Shares Xbox Game Pass Plans, Leaves Door Open for Diablo IV on Game Pass in 2024

Microsoft upped the Gamepass price on the basis that it would allow for bigger titles. Honestly I think they are delivering on that with Starfield and Forza Motorsport amongst others. EA Play inclusion also adds value as does having the 2 out of the 3 most recent AC chapters. Ubisoft + can go suck a dick though, I want Valhalla and eventually Mirage on Gamepass.

PraiseTheSoup, do games w CD Projekt Spent Roughly $125 Million Turning Cyberpunk 2077 Around Post-Launch

$125 million and the game still sucks. I beat it at launch and I can’t even tell where they spent all that money. Hotdog textures must be expensive.

So yeah, it was just people saying BS at the release, the game was perfect, like the CEO said few weeks ago in an itv.

Someone told me this a week ago and I think it's a perfect summary of what happened:

disliking cyberpunk is an opinion people who don't form opinions have. I'm sure there are people who had glaring technical issues ruin their playthrough and that's fair. But for most of them it's just a fear of clowns/ hatred of pineapple pizza mouth sound they can make.

aksdb,

I agree only a little. The game got more flak than it deserved. It was mostly a good game.

BUT CDPR brought this on themselves by building up massive hype with excessive promises they in the end were not able to deliver on. In addition they stubbornly tried to get a next gen game on last gen consoles which also failed hard.

I think a lot of the stuff that went wrong was management and marketing related and could have been avoided.

iAmTheTot,

The game got more flak than it deserved.

It was a literal slideshow on past gen consoles and they knew that so they tried to prevent reviewers from warning people. Then happily took full price from consumers for it.

Literally no amount of flak would be enough for that shady shit.

aksdb,

I specifically addressed and criticized that point.

CarlsIII,

I had it at launch on ps4 and I enjoyed it for the most part. I just endured the low frame rate because it was near the end of the ps4 life cycle and it seemed every game coming out for ps4 at the time had a shitty frame rate, so I never considered it an issue unique to Cyberpunk.

Veritrax,

The game was so perfect that it was delisted from the PlayStation store because of bugs and performance issues.

topinambour_rex,
@topinambour_rex@lemmy.world avatar

Still cdredproject CEO said it was bashing at the release, and the game didnt deserved so much hate…

OctopusKurwa,

Any product that releases in such a poor state and expects full price definitely deserves the hate. The game was unplayable on half the platforms it released on for months.

loobkoob,

Nah, it wasn't removed for technical reasons; Sony removed it because CDPR went behind their back and blanket-offered refunds. Which was the right thing for CDPR to do from a consumer-friendly perspective and from a PR perspective, but they should have communicated with Sony more first seeing as refunds on PlayStation go through Sony's store. I thought it was a bad look for Sony, though, personally.

That's not to excuse Cyberpunk 2077's performance on consoles in any way - they deserve flak for that.

    I finally picked up a tank class… but Gunbreaker can’t enter hall of the novice.

    jemikwa,

    Take it slow at a lower level dungeon to get the feel for things. Sastasha and Tam Tara are great ones to start on. Go in with duty support NPCs if you are nervous about performing with others. In my experience, if you preface the instance with “hi bear with me, I’m new to tanking”, people are very forgiving and will even give pointers :)

    <span style="color:#323232;">Name omitted to respect privacy but if you really want to know they're easy to find on both Lalachievements and FFXIVcollect. Here's a picture of what this insanity includes:
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">    Completed all five ultimate raids.
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">    Cleared all three Deep Dungeons solo.
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">    Discovered at least 20000 hoards from said Deep Dungeons.
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">    At least 2000 successfully completed mentor roulettes.
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">    At least 3000 victories in Frontline.
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">    At least 1000 victories in Rival Wings.
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">    At least 5000 victories in Crystalline Conflict or The Feast.
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">    Completed every levequest achievement, which due to time-gating takes a minimum of SEVEN years.
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">    Fully cleared all treasure dungeons at least 20 times, including the Hidden Canals of Uznair, which was a notoriously impossible achievement for many years and requires about 2000 Thief's Maps on average.
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">    Obtained every single relic weapon from ARR to EW.
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">    All extreme trials and final savage raid bosses from ARR to ShB cleared as BLU.
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">    Killed at least 5000 rank S marks and at least 10000 rank A marks and obtained every Hunt mount.
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">    All Firmament/Diadem achievements including 500,000 skyward score as every DoH/L for the Pteranodon mount.
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">    Obtained all ocean fishing bonuses and caught every fish.
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">
    </span>
    

    Can confirm most of these are mind numbingly boring and mundane. I could barely get through the slog of ONE ARR and HW relic for starters. I’m also not ashamed to admit I’ve paid for bot programs to avoid doing a few of these tasks because of how tedious they can be. (Even just normally. I never went out of my way to try and complete any of these achievements.)
