      Eventually it turns out that Project Hype Train does not have a functioning train system at launch.

      I hope you’re ironic. We hope people learn. But getting on the hype train is irresponsible, every time.

      Honestly, I played it at paunch and thought it was really good compared to other games. There were small missing features, but what was delivered was very polished. The thing that got them was performance issues on ps5. Starfield was on a way worse shape at launch and you can just tell that there are issues that will never get fixed.

      They struck out one time, were pressured by fans and even their own country’s government to release the game despite them delaying it multiple times acknowledging how much work was yet to be done. The gaming community often cries about what they want, and when they get it they cry about what they said they wanted.

      The game is incredible right now. They fucked up the launch for sure, but here’s hoping they learned from it. If they do it again then I think it’s warranted to start expecting it from them.

      Also their current game engine is like playing whack-a-mole. They squash one bug and multiple others appear every patch. They’re moving to Unreal for Orion so hopefully it’ll be better in that regard as well. But for sure wait for launch reviews, don’t pre-order, etc etc. that’s common sense.

    Looking forward to this. Really love CP77.

    Also, it surprises me they don’t use other studio names like “CD Projekt Orange” and other colors.

      Same. played it at launch on PC. i might have been one of the lucky ones. No real show stoppers as far as glitches went.

      I remember that they used to have ‘CD Projekt Black’ which mostly ported games to PC back in the 2000’s

    Maybe they can make another game that keeps trapping you into small cars/rooms with unskippable dialogue over and over again!

      What game are you referring to? In CP2077 you can very much skip dialogue, and also car rides. As to trapping you in rooms what do you mean? It’s one of the most open games I’ve played with no loading screens whatsoever and freedom to do basically whatever you want.

        I am referring to Cyberpunk 2077.

        The beginning of the game was brutal for trapping you in a car, or on a couch, forcing you to talk to characters that you have no reason to cares about. My husband said that it gets better, but I wasn’t willing to put up with it.

          I’m thinking the game may just not be for you. You’re describing the cinematics that help build immersion into the character and situation as though they are a hassle.
