add one more thing to the list:
Whew lads....no next-gen console or game's marketing comes close to this :ROFLMAO:

The game itself? In some ways, it's not even current-gen lol. Night City's population must've gone extinct, because there's barely anyone out on the streets lol. Then there's the fact that there are zero aerial vehicles you can fly in an open world game set in the year 2077. The engine limitations are readily apparent. GTA has had flying vehicles since ages lol.

I'm concerned the most about load times on base consoles. Hope there's no in game loading except fast travel.
There aren't any loading screens outside of fast travel. The whole map can be traversed without a loading screen, whether going inside or coming outside of the buildings.

There will however be some loading which will be more noticeable on HDDs than SSDs. Like the transition from the elevator scene to V's apartment in the 2018 demo, or other story/quest segments that might take you from one location in a scene to another, like V getting shot in the motel and waking up in a different place. Things of that nature depending on the quest.

I'm more concerned about how environmental objects can just fade in this close to the player. If this is PC footage, may the force be with base consoles lol. Perhaps the team responsible for the engine's asset streaming tech didn't crunch enough 🤷‍♂️

^ lights on/off ho rahi hon gi. :p

Some degree of pop-in is expected in open-world games, so it is relative I guess. Let's see how CP 2077 as a whole turns out in that department compared to other open-world games.

too soon for review copies considering staff is still crunching on content and likely a real big day 1 copy ..

or are they giving reviews not the day 1 experience ?

Good point. I guess we'll know for certain by next week if prominent journalists tweet about it.

In other news, senior level designer Miles Toast is all toasted up regarding inquiries about cut features and asks the community to wait for reviews from influencers CDPR has loaded with goodies in advance.



As such, it will be up to Chandoo as well as my CriTical analysis to provide a fair and bias-free assessment of the game.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
