Don't like medieval crap so i've never gotten into Witcher but Cyberpunk I will buy.
Day one purchase!
The Witcher series isn't 'medieval crap'. It's actually one of the better RPG series out there, but don't let that stop you from talking without consulting your brain. |

Man! First a decent DX sequel, then a Shadowrun game, and now this! Very excited!
Hells yeah! Coupled with the new old-school style CRPG for the Divinity series announced yesterday - and let's not forget Wasteland - 2013 looks like it's shaping up to be the best year in a very long time for CRPG vets.
Wait...didn't you say a while back that after the D3 insanity that you had lost faith in gaming and were considering fading out to a different hobby? Or was I thinking of someone else? |

A RPG free of the swords and sorcery mumbo jumbo? Please say it's so. I love anything cyberpunk. Take my money! (it'll be a first - most of these RPG developers have never earned a dime from me, I love RPG game mechanics just can't stand the early afternoon children's tv show storylines).
Deus Ex! And that's pretty much it. Well, I guess EYE could be considered an RPG... kinda. Shadowrun as well, though that came out a while ago. I'm surprised there haven't been more cyberpunk RPGs. It seems like such an appropriate setting. I guess publishers are still fearful of non-fantasy settings.
New Vegas doesn't count? |

If they are using the Witcher 2 engine for this game, then I imagine that it won't be point and click.
But to echo what others have said here, I'm almost sure to love anything from CD Projekt so they can take my money! |

Hmmmm...OK, who started the top down rumor?
I'll keep my eye on it but I did kinda like the DKS.
Looks like there is a bunch of aRPGs to play coming up and I'm not lamenting my D3 boycott at all. |

See this is what I don't get.
All reviews say basically the same things: Weak/overdone story, the obvious always online downside, doesn't innovate or add anything significant to the genre, normal mode too easy and item stats are wonky(differences between legendary and rares??). Removal of tweakable stats is questionable.
Then they all go on to say the game is great, give it a 9/10 and advise people to go out and buy it. All of them. Its like they swallowed some kind of mind-altering, Blizzard-slave making drug. Its like if that stuff was present in any other game but Diablo 3 it would be getting a 6 or 7. Instead, it gets a 9. Yeah. Use apostrophe for "its" (it's = it is). 
Bah...I was still waking up. I don't usually do that.

Grr, I hate top-down! Why not a follow-up to DKS? That was a great game!
That would call for 'logic' and 'common sense' to enter the equation again, and Larian figures that they should just jump on the dumb bandwagon while the jumping is good... |

That was my point actually.

"Its not DRM, its a all-in-one patch-updater, trophy system, in-game web browser and friend service."
Most people either know going in or learn soon enough that Steam is in fact DRM. But it is far less restrictive than Blizzard's garbage and offers more in the way of user conveniences to offset the downsides. Steam does not have to be sold as anything other than what it is, while Blizzard's DRM has to be disguied as something else so as to appear less onerous.
The thing is that it doesn't work like Steam. I can pull my network cable in the middle of all my Steam games and continue to play. If my net is down, I play in offline mode.
B.net may have some social functions built in, but its not like Steam or Impulse when it comes to D3. |

The same type of people that still play Diablo 2, 12 years after its release date.
You'd think that would be obvious... |

Most successful games don't require high end hardware to run. See all Blizzard titles for examples of this.
Blizzard makes games that can run on your grandma's PC because they hope that your grandma will give those games a try. And unfortunately, that's exactly what happens.
Making games that scale up and down equally well is time-consuming and difficult though. Because the idea is that the game looks and performs decently at both ends of the hardware spectrum. It's really much easier to make a game that performs well on lower end hardware and add in a few features that high end hardware can utilize rather than looking to monopolize the full power of top of the line rigs.
The things is that even the next generation of consoles aren't looking all that impressive on the hardware front. And very few developers are making games aimed squarely at the PC market. And even when they do, they seldom want to target the high end hardware segment. You're not going to find a Hard Reset or Serious Sam 3 popping up every day. |

Failing as in "broken ass game with flawed gameplay concepts" so ..sure.. SOTS2 didn't fail financially either, it's still a fail though. Actually.. you do know that nowadays a FAIL is not remotely related to financial success right?
Like you not getting my repeated hints that I am joking (at least related to Language issues), that's epic fail. How many more smiles does it take to make that more apparent? 
It is, no matter whether you think I am trolling, a bad game. It is insane, but it is not good or memorable. It also most gibberish. ^^
I think we get that you don't like it, but not everyone hated it. And it seems to have sold reasonably well. The fact that it's not some super-marketed 'AAA' title would seem to suggest that some folks found the game enjoyable.
I'm curious to see if they do something better with their next game.

obviously indeed
All this talk about a failed cyberpunk game makes me want to replay Deus EX HR.. so let me get to that instead ;p At least that is not incoherent gibberish ^^
Did it actually fail? I never heard them say that they didn't recoup development costs or make any money off it. And they are still patching it so...
Its got more recommends than Tropico on Steam so I dunno. It may just appeal to a niche audience. |
