    I personally disagree and the experience changed my opinion I had for CD Projekt after TW3, Gwent beta & GOG Galaxy 1.0

    I don’t dislike them per se, but I don’t have the same level of sentiment I had, to me they are back to being another untrustworthy publisher. 8 years since The Witcher 3 launch is a very long time in the industry.

      Either they are out of touch, or they are trying to rewrite history… neither of which is a good look. The handling of Cyberpunk 2077 didn’t only change my view on them but pretty much soured me on all AAA publishers, “good” or not. There are way more than enough amazing indie games on offer and not enough time to play them.

        Ooooh, if you followed the story from the very beginning then you would know that they are not out of touch. Those greedy fucks know exactly what they are doing and have no respect for the players.

        For me it definitely reinforced the “don’t believe it until you see it” mentality to anything AAA publishers claim about their games. Just like their words in this article, they’re meaningless.

          Same with me. I’ll never preorder another game again. I was already apprehensive about doing so after no man’s sky and others, but it’s just continuous “deal with it” attitude from developers.
