i gave cyberpunk2077 another shot after hating it at launch because multiple people pestered me about it for two years. i was repeatedly told of my lengthy list of criticisms, “they fixed all that, it’s like a totally different game now”.
10 hours later it’s clear that they’re either:
a) delusional b) liars c) literally cannot hear criticism of the game being spoken aloud
because that shit was 99% identical to at launch, bugs included. the difference between the game that people keep describing to me and the game in front of me is so stark that i’m fucking baffled. it’s like it’s a cult or something.
So OP is the one playing some other game here and the people in OP’s post are the ones shouting quit having fun, right? RIGHT? Because it was clear to me OP was mainly upset at being pestered into playing a game OP didn’t want too.
Friendo, the post called me a cultist for liking that game. Like it’s kinda mid, but still enjoyable. Yes, 77 was overhyped in marketing, then released in a barely playable state, but when the worst problems were fixed the hype was still there, cuz it’s (surprisingly) somewhat of a unique setting in AAA space. And overhyping your product is exactly how you do marketing well
OP is the one complaining about people enjoying a game because they didn’t like it themselves. They aren’t quietly enjoying a different game, they’re posting about not liking one everyone else is enjoying.
Others: “I like this game, I think its really good” OP: “STOP SAYING THE GAME IS GOOD I THINK YOU’RE DELUSIONAL”
I dont see anyone in this thread pestering OP about changing their opinion, only OP railing against it and accusing everyone else of lying or being delusional.
A bunch of people came into this thread to tell OP “It’s good actually” so yeah, of course they’re going to push back on that? They originally called their friends delusional for saying the bugs had been fixed.
A bunch of people came in to say they thought it was good - op is the only one casting accusations.
Honestly, it’s fine - op is entitled to their opinion. I just dont think a lot of people agree with it. People swear by Fallout New Vegas being amazing but I couldn’t get into it. I understand being made to feel like you’re missing something or not playing a game right for your lack of enjoyment. But if I came in hot with a ‘you are all fucking delusional for not seeing how bad this game is’ I would rightly be laughed out of the room.
OP made this whole thread to come in and complain that “this massively popular game that millions of people love is garbage, actually” and then when some of those millions of people come in to ask what this is all about and try to defend their opinion, they’re hit with “no you’re delusional” and lies about the state of the game
Maybe they should use less inflamatory language? Like, cmon, opinions can differ, just don’t be assholes about it
