Honestly i do not really know why it was removed. I watched some live streams of Grim Jim playing it on his PS4 and yeah, there where glitches, bugs, but nothing game breaking - it was like The Witcher 3 at day 1.

If people do not want to experience such bugs, stop pre-ordering games.

kohlrak: CDP on the whole has been targeted by the left to the degree that it cannot be forgiven for even having Linko as an employee. For those who aren't SJWs, it's the invasive marketing with a release rivaling that of No Man's Sky (which i think NMS actually managed to have a better release state). Expectations were high, especially after TW3. And to top it off, they are showing that they will bow to the CCP for the yuan. I'm only slightly surprised the kotaku crowd is hanging them, but the rest of us shouldn't be a surprise at all.
what are you talking about? i doubt this has to do with politics since it's possible to make a transgender person in the game, enough with the boogeymen please

skimming through it i find several points they made to be reasonable, and in fact i share a lot of them. cyberpunk is all appearance and no substance, but thats a problem with cyberpunk as a genre and not just this game. any -punk genre is boring af.

s yeah, that review is actually quite accurate. people are allowed to have opinions, you know? ironic that you chastise gog for "bowing to china" and yet you adopt totalitarian attitudes yourself

kohlrak: what totalitarian attitude have i adopted?
this "sjw attack" of yours, doesn't seem evident to me in this artcile. sounds like you're a bit paranoid.

also, if you really want to find "sjws" you should've seen how some feminist groups wanted to boycott tw3's launch because it was "made out of rape". this is much tamer in particular, cyberpunk 77 is just a run of the mill action game, and it's been reviewed as such
It's a shame this game is such a clusterf**k on consoles and will hurt CDPR both financially and reputation wise, because I think the game itself is pretty great. It's getting a lot of gruff in the press for various reasons ranging from too high of expectations to bugs, but as someone who just wanted an open world Deus Ex it's pretty much that. So it delivered for me.

My main problem with it is that a lot of the side content is very generic, but a lot of it isn't, and it's hard to know which is which until you're doing it. However I'd still say the side content is well above average for an open world checklist game of this type.

The reason i'm even aware of the article is because people were complaining and citing the article. Apparently the lack of trans support outside of the character creator and sexual focus on the trans has left a bad taste in their mouth. Doesn't seem to be their main contention with CDP, though. That seems to still be tied to Linko. The SJW crowd seems to have no concept of redemption, at least as far as I have seen, which means CDP is a good target. I have no doubt they went after CDP for TW3, as well. The question is, why is CDP in particular being railed against, and i'm pointing out that it managed to alienate the majority of possible friends it could have. It ticked off the left, the right, the moderates who don't like DRM, the moderates who remember how linko was handled and aren't happy with gog catering to politics itself (let alone to a specific group), etc. When you burn alot of bridges, it becomes really, really easy to become a target if you're still even remotely successful.

i admit i don't even know who linko is, why is he important to the game? does he have anything to do with it, to begin with? i actually googled linko and found nothing, just reports of cdpr's damage control

the trans complain is acceptable as i said, and i reiterate it's a symptom of the design choices made for this game. all style, all flash, all colors, all of a lot of things, except for depth and "magic".

this never happened in the witcher games.

and they tried to boycott it *before* it was released, before it was delayed, even, but very few people paid attention to them. and at this point nobody really cares about the pokemon sex cards in the first game (which were more cringy than anything else). there's worse problems in the witcher community, like triss fans

The point you're missing is why CDP is being dumped on, after making a bunch of enemies. You said you didn't understand why CDP in particular is being treated harsher than other companies. Simply put, those other companies were very careful not to piss off everyone they possibly could before releasing their dumpsterfires.

It's quite simple. SJWs hated GOG for the "games journalism" twitter post, and never forgave them even when they fired people responsible.
SJWs hate CDPR because the women were attractive and the men were manly, and it didn't force diversity into every facet of the game at the expense of world-building, lore, and consistency.
The only people that had the backs of CDP were actual gamers.
Now, CP2077 has released in such a state that it is bricking consoles (standard PS4s in this case) and is all-but unplayable (if not outright unplayable depending on hardware configuration). What's more, some of the game's (single-player) content is locked behind an "optional" client even when sold as DRM free.
Now GOG has done a triple reversal 360 backflip and stated that "many gamers" are the reason they are not listing a game that was once, in one small way, critical of the Chi-knees on Mainland Taiwan, which everyone knows is bullshit.
They turned on the only people that had their back, their actual *paying customers*, and blamed *them* for the censorship.
It shows a complete lack of character, or integrity, of ethical behaviour, of anything resembling decency.

You're preaching to the choir, however non-SJWs like myself are still sore over all the capitulation to the SJWs. We warned them when it all went on that they ultimately chose to make enemies of both sides, but they wouldn't listen.
LOL!

Looks like Sony doesn't want being (cyber-)punked by CDP Red anymore.
