If I have an option to buy a game on gog i'd get it from there assuming no physical etc. Also it's no DRM, the launcher is optional, if you're out of internet or the platform one day goes down or whatever you won't need to hack your files to play your games you can always just launch them from your computer just like it should be^^ I haven't tried but this may mean that if you have a game from gog and you copy it to your other computers you can play lan games at home just like we used to with older games. Yes, that is one of the effects of no DRM. Generally speaking, GOG has a far more ethical setup compared to steam, which is why i also prefer it when i have a choice. | ||

This is a massive game and if it's more ambitious than TW3 or GTA5, then there are going to be missed issues. I'm thinking another 6 months would have been perfect, but you know gamers. | ||

Unfortunately the delays were primarily caused by current-gen consoles having trouble running the game and majority of effort went into fixing that. I guess that patches fixing actual bugs will start rolling out soon. One of the reasons why I'm postponing my download until next year at the least. | ||

They went gold and was like, "Shit...there's a lot more wrong than we think. We're gonna have to delay...the delay..." I'm gonna be running it on my 5700XT at max settings day 1 I think. Gotta get this game outta my system. | ||

What I'm reading on sources I personally trust is so far from all those 9 and 10/10. Not saying the game doesn't seem to have a lot of qualities, it obviously does but all the issues and there seem to be many (and not just bugs) should prevent the absurd notation. | ||

We're not in a world anymore when you get a finished game without updates or patches to be expected. | ||

How can you not review a game without using your own footage? If you're talking about Skill Up, he's actually pretty good at creating no spoiler reviews. Also, I guess he wants to show the bugs and, let's say, less popular stuff(e.g. bad HW optimization). Which, surprise, isn't in the official trailer and release footage! Shocking, I know  Edit> Also wanna point out, that Wasteland 3 was released in a state that it was barely passing as a playable on consoles. It was crashing every other load? (I played the PC version, so just read about it) So his annoyance about missing console versions for proper day1 buyers reviews is actually pretty valid. I was horribly surprised how unfinished the game was and that it was actually released. Take that as an example to his another rant.

It should affect the scoring because if somebody else can do it without bugs with the same quality, how do you show the difference? Lowering the score for bugs is fair, it makes the game less enjoyable and it makes the game developers motivated to release the game in a better state. This is actually a pro-consumer move from the review journalist. And consumers don't like, the irony  | ||

This is actually a pro-consumer move from the review journalist. And consumers don't like, the irony If every other outlet can post a pre-launch review, then why can't he? I feel like he's looking to nitpick on what everyone already knows so it doesn't make any sense to rant about it. Just review what you can and once it launches, release your full review and update your scoring appropriately. I can understand his frustration, but without the day 1 patch, it doesn't do anything to point out flaws we know are there. If the game is playable and he's finished it as he claims, then the game can't be that bad. Frustrating because of bugs etc? Sure. | ||

What issues are you talking about? Gameplay being bad somehow? Story being crap? I've just recently realized that CP2077 has taken a page from Age of Conan, which at the time was truly groundbreaking for MMOs and RPGs in general as very rarely you could see different archetypes be thrown into different points of the same story only to converge later so you had to do like 4 playthroughs to get the full picture of how the first part of the story develops. Can't wait to feel that rush again if they did it in the same vein. | ||
