Always anticipated this game much more than W3. Bring it on!

 

[Mass_Pincup]

An AAA Cyberpunk RPG is a dream come true for me.

I've been waiting for this since they announced it back in 2012.

 

[Pie and Beans]

Take a completely different route to combat please. I don't want to see a shred of Witcher jank making its way across to poison this game as well.

Play all the other games with good, non-shit gameplay, and copy those.

 

[Srey Plaughtered]

This kind of reveal does not hurt anyone (except gamers).

They didn't promised shit, just showed they have a new, interesting project in the pipeline that will be a sci-fi RPG.

Not a disease IMO. I am happy to know CDP is working on a game that will excite me.

The early reveal was essentially 'we're now hiring for a Cyberpunk RPG' notice. In a secret message itself in the trailer they said Witcher 3's coming soon and is closer to completion. I suppose sometime after the trailer or maybe even later they realized that it'll take a lot longer for Witcher 3 to complete given it's scope and they made a good decision to delay it as Witcher 3 definitely made good use of the extra dev time and turned out fantastic.
If nothing else, at least we know for sure that Cyberpunk will be out and will be good.

God, this obsession with dick measuring contests in the form of map sizes is killing me. I'm losing more and more interest in open world games because there's not enough interesting shit to fill wide open areas.

They say the game will be bigger, as the project is bigger and more complex, they didnt talk about the map size.
Having more dialogues, better written quests, more characters, better RPG mechanics etc also increases the resources needed for the project, and equates to a bigger game.
The game could totally feature an openworld mega city, smaller in size than the Witcher 3 map, and still be a 'bigger' game.

Good thing that it isn't about map sizes.

 

[Murder. She Wrote]

Hopefully more density than size, and more quality than quantity of content.

 

[kraspkibble]

never heard of it until i seen that CDPR were making it. it looks cool i guess based on the trailer.

who knows what bigger means but i trust that they will do a good job.

 

[Pilgrimzero]

If this game is as good as The Witcher I will fangasm. Love Cyberpunk...

 

[TVexperto]

I dont really need a bigger game but a more focused and compact game. I always say I enjoy playing a game that is 20 hours fantastic instead of a game that is a 50 hour chore to get through.

 

[eXistor]

Bleh, I don't want bigger, I want smaller, denser worlds. How awesome would it be if Cyberpunk was set in one big(ish) city, but every building was fully exploreable? That's what I want.

 

[Uno Venova]

If it has acceptable combat and performance this time I'm in.

 

[jett]

Archive - Bullets

Edit: Yes, I explored this band after the trailer, and they are actually a really good band.

Yeah same here. Archive is pretty great.

 

[Denton]

Man, I would love to play this game. But I don't play shooters.

Why

And also,I am sure shooting will be just one of the options available. There will be stealth and other combat styles no doubt.

Also, it would sure be nice if people could stop misunderstanding what was meant by bigger here.

 

[inky]

It can be a quarter of the size for all I care. I just want a fully realized, tight, fun world.

 

[Traffcore]

High quantity and high quality. Great!

 

[Lurgan1337]

I believe it when I see it.
Didn't they say right after W3 release that they got a lot of money and now it's time to start doing CP2077 ?
For now it's vaporware, but CDProjectRed didn't fail gamers once.

 

[KingBroly]

Given all of the problems Witcher 3 has/had technically, it makes me sigh in disappointment, because it means that it'll be more problematic in this, because I simply can't see them stepping up their QA game.

 

[omonimo]

Wait a minute. They are working on it from 2012? O.O

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

This doesn't really mean much to me since I haven't played The Witcher 3. I'll be waiting for screenshots or gameplay.

 

[Cyriades]

CD Projekt Red..... will there be black people?

 

[Nakazato]

Can't wait I need more cyber punk games

CD Projekt Red..... will there be black people?

There will be a black synthetic drug user and a black arms dealer and you'll like it

 

[IAmRandom31]

I don't want a game that is much bigger then Witcher 3 to be honest. Atleast not one of Witcher 3's genre. Game is already barren enough.

But since we are talking Cyberpunk here ..... im curious.

 

[Falchion]

I can't even comprehend how much content there will be if they are claiming it's scope will dwarf Witcher 3. Maybe procedurally generated content in space like No Man's Sky.

 

[Zoibie]

CDPR have yet to let me down, they should take all the time they need.

 

[family_guy]

An excuse to finally upgrade my graphics card.

 

[Lunar15]

CD Projekt Red..... will there be black people?

Given that Mike Pondsmith, one of the creators of the original game and someone working on this project, is black himself, there's a pretty solid chance.

[Srey Plaughtered]

You'll probably be able to augment yourself to look black, or even blue and green. Welcome to cyberpunk.

 

[Mirand]

Finally an open-world sci-fi game. How many medieval fantasy games do we need?

I mean, there's also Fallout and Mass Effect (kinda sorta open world), but I share your joy for more.

 

[Citizen_Insane]

I don't want anything bigger than Witcher 3. That was far too big for its own good. Give me a smaller, more focused experience any day.

But we know nothing about this game, so we'll see.

 

[Mirand]

Fallout, sure. I guess I meant sleek and dystopian rather than post-apocalyptic and dystopian.

 

[BlackRock]

Hype! I'm not sure I'm going to be able to handle how excited everything about this project makes me. It's sort of one of my dream games they've described so far. Maybe miracles come true. Can't wait for some gameplay.

 

[Catdaddy]

So the name of the game is Cyberpunk and it'll be released in 2077? My PS12 is ready!

 

[danmaku]

Not exactly a fair comparison. Who would play a boring game rather than a good one, regardless of size? smh

 

[Gunslinger]

Cyberpunk 2077 is too big AKA coming to a store near you in 2022.

 

[Percy]

All the virtual real estate in the world ain't gonna mean shit if CDPR don't learn how to design a decent combat system before this game comes out.

 

[sappyday]

They gained my trust with The Witcher 3. Even back when I didn't like The Witcher 3 (when playing the game on normal) I was still hyped for 2077.

 

[IvorB]

Maybe they should focus on delivering on a large scope to an acceptable standard of technical quality rather than trying to expand that scope again.

 

[Lunar15]

Fallout, sure. I guess I meant sleek and dystopian rather than post-apocalyptic and dystopian.

I agree. I've wanted a good open world cyber punk game for what feels like eons. I share the thirst.

 

[Mad Season]

God damn. Stop making 100+ hour games and just make an awesome focused story that doesn't have a million fetch quests. Give me one big city with loads to interact with like gtaiv size rather than going for a box to tick for your marketing push.

what? witcher 3 was awesome with this

 

[AllIsOneIsNone]

Hopefully it will be a whole city, and you can go inside everywhere with working elevators and shit. That would be awesome.

 

[StoveOven]

Despite knowing little about it, this game has been my most anticipated game since it was announced. I've always wanted a big, Cyberpunk RPG. Deus Ex is great, but I want one where I can freely explore a Cyberpunk world at my leisure. Hopefully they deliver on the promise

 

[WanderingWind]

Great news. There are a billion (probably literally) small, indie, snack sized games on every platform known to man. Don't like "100+ hour games" go pick a platform, close your eyes and point. Congrats, you just found a non-"100+ hour game." Glad to see it's not just Bethesda trying to make enormous, sprawling RPGs.

 

[Chase17]

The EA boost.

 

[glassgannon]

ugh please no,
make it a third of the size of the witcher but make it dripping with quality and polish. im getting sick of this trend where everything is open and big for the heck of it

 

[CHC]

Goddammit I'm gonna have a breakdown. Witcher III kept me busy for over 150 hours on ONE playthrough, and I didn't even do remotely everything.

I'm confident that they can make it interesting though. Witcher III was JUST intimate enough - I never really felt like it was unncessarily large or repetitive, except perhaps for all the sunken treasures in Skellige. But whatever, those weren't really required or anything, nor did they have repetive quests associated with them.

If they stick to their usual quality they can make it however big they want, I am not worried about bloat from CDPR.

I agree, if people able to do huge games won't do them who is supposed to?

There is a trend of open-world science fiction games? Where?
