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.

      It’s not that people can’t accept that, you keep defending yourself on people saying THEY enjoy it. Nobody is telling you you have to like it.

        a LOT of people heckled me for a long time about saying i didn’t like it when they asked if i’d played it, as if having played at launch invalidates any opinion i could possibly have because there were also more bugs. i think it’s reasonable to feel some kind of way about being dismissed and diminished and heckled and pressured into repeating a bad experience point for point, and then repeatedly told what an ignorant fool i am for landing on the same opinion as i had before. except now im mad that i had to endure it again just to validate not liking it to every fan of the game i know irl.
