How hard is it to spell 2024 with a zero, and would people be confused if the game was called WWE 24?

This is likely to get me a bunch of hate. I will watch it, but not as enthused about it now. Female lead???? Nah.

Cyberpunk SUX0RS, blah, blah, blah... That's what they said
Mark my words, in two years' time Starfield is going to blow up... Fucking Todd already told you all to upgrade your shit.
2077 had a solid foundation of amazing writing, actors, characters, story, art direction and music. Most of its issues were technical, game mechanics. Very few people were complaining about the story, acting, atmosphere, music, art direction, GFX, animations, etc. With 2077 you could patch it into a great game as the foundations were solid. That isn't so with SF. SF is at its core a bad game, everything I stated as 2077 high points is, at best, mediocre in SF. You can't patch out the endless loading screens without redoing the entire engine. They are not going to re-write the characters and bring in the cast for a re-do. They are not going to patch in a whole new main story. You can not patch a bad game at its core into a great, or even good, game.
Like I said blah, blah blah.
a simple google search filtered with a date range of 2020 -2021 tells a very different story.
A lot of the criticism of Cyberpunk 2077 that isn't based on bugs or the console problems has pointed out that the plot, setting, and quests often feel incomplete or loosely stitched together
Cyberpunk 2077’s problems do not end with the technical and performance issues that CDPR is trying to patch out, nor do the game's problems end with the bad reputation it got after its original launch, which it may never be able to fully shake. Cyberpunk 2077’s problems lie at a fundamental level, which no amount of gameplay patches could fix.
Visually, the game is last-gen make no mistake, if you’re expecting to be blown away by the visuals, then I’m sorry to disappoint.
looking at the steam hardware survey in December 2020 we see the dual and quad core CPU's with GTX 1060 ruled the day, and CP2077 was poorly optimized.
Today six and eight core CPUs the the most common, and RTX 3060, and CP2077 has finely been optimized.
Loading screens, CP2077 has a loading screen when you fast travel, or enter a structure, where as Starfield has a loading screen when you enter a structure or fast travel...Same holds true for Skyrim and Fallout 4, not really understanding the issue, other then Starfield isn't No mans Sky.

For the life of me I will never understand why writers think that this is big news about a single player game. It's not a live service, and it has an end. It was released 5 months ago. I can't think of one single player game that I was playing 5 months straight after release. My favorite game of all time, XCOM 2, had me playing about 2 straight months before I took a break from it.
Please explain to me why a 10 yr old SP game (Skyrim SE and FO4) has at least twice the number of players than this one by your logic.
Also BG3 is still over 110,000 players and just as old and SP.
*grabs popcorn*
BG3 has 160k right now, it's called a weekend Still insanely high numbers for a game of this type no matter what.
Skyrim SE = 30k
Starfield = 10k
CS2 = 7k
CS1 = 8k (lmao)
Funfact, I too am playing CS1 right now... still hoping CS2 will catch up but doesn't look like it, the last videos by content creators where disastercity for the developers. Half the simulation doesn't even WORK.

*Looks at watch* So in 6-8 months they are going to announce winding down said console dept. Good to know.
In the extremely unlikely event that happens, it might mean they would actually start giving a shit about PC gaming again. I don't believe in hope, though, so I am going to mark that down as "As likely to happen as me winning the lottery twice."

Good. Wish he would give up on voice acting altogether . His VA in Starfailed stuck out like a sore thumb among an otherwise decent cast.

I get that, but I loved the density of the city and the level of exploration going on. Finding quest sidelines like that underground society, etc. It's what I wanted but didn't get from Cyberpunk. In fact, I played Cyberpunk just after MD and it made Night City feel that much more sterile and non-interactive.
