If I can get home for holiday w family I probably wonât play much of it this year. Nice to know that they feel theyâve got an amazing game on their hands.
i have this feeling that this game is gonna dissapoint a whole lotta people who have convinced themselves the witcher 3 was the greatest game of all time and that this will be the next
or maybe it will be cool! i hope the people here looking forward to it enjoy it.
it is just not the flavor of cyberpunk i like. it doesnât even look like cyberpunk, it looks like gta but the hookers have shiny robot parts now
Cyberpunk as a genreâs political credentials are exceedingly overblown anyhow. I just want to see how it balances the tension of open world with more immersion sim sensibilities.
please do not buy this if you care at all about workers in the industry. even if the stupid GTA humor transphobia doesnât bother you (it should, and iâm judging you if it doesnât!), people logging 100 hour weeks to make a fucking entertainment product they wonât see a cent in royalties for should repulse anyone who works for a living. just pirate it if you canât go without playing it
Without disagreeing with anything youâre saying, my constant plea to remember that this is not exceptional in the least, big or small. Condemn the industry as a whole, condemn poor planning, condemn the lack of worker power.
Yeah look at this bullshit from last time they delayed the game:
âcannot participate on the home frontâ? fuck right off
them being polish makes this much, much funnier
What physical said. Donât buy this.
The product and its development are both wrought with unethical exploitative trash.
If you really want a game that will likely contain heavy doses of sexism, racism, and transphobia in a boring uninspired cyberpunk game, pirate that shit.
Personally, Iâm just not going to play it at all.
I wonder if this will be truly DRM free like their past games
Tbh itâs made me take a wait and see approach with more certainty. I have a platform to call them (and industry) out on the exploitation if that counts for anything. I am curious about the game in a way that I wasnât for Rockstar and Ubisoft shit but tbh thereâs enough games out there that I can choose an option that isnât so transparently exploitative.
Iâll do like with Witcher 3 and buy some on sale discounted gold edition with all the dlc in 2 years is that good enough
gonna be way too busy with Yakuza 7 for this shite
always a reminder that pirating games on PC is easy and fun to do but i think iâm preaching to the choir here
this may come off like a snide remark, but i will be genuinely impressed if this game is not a total disappointment.
yeah i was being nice in my first post cause i hadnât read the rest of the thread but fuck this game, play yakuza
The other thing about this email is that it kinda sounds like people are crunchingâŠin an office buildingâŠduring the covid outbreak.
That seems bad. Like even more bad than just crunching.
My (completely speculative) guess: everybodyâs home except for IT and maybe some folks doing mocap but some higher-ups who arenât used to having rules enforced on them feel comfortable ignoring the rules they put on other people, because theyâd rather take the privilege of getting out of the house
For everyone saying Iâll play Yakuza why do yâall think Sega Japan is any better about this?
I donât know what I would search for to find out about Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios work culture.
