What the fuck happened during the 7 years? Was it bloat and development hell?
What the fuck happened during the 7 years? Was it bloat and development hell?
STEM morons are in charge of art and entertainment. End of story.
Having to develop a game that would also run on the base PS4 and XBox One is what ended up killing this game
it needs to be delayed again it is not ready yet
PERSONAL
RESPONSIBILITY
Unironically women, game reeks of vagina humour
delay it 7 more years
Honestly shouldve made it a PC exclusive so they wouldnt be held back so much while later porting it to PS5/Xbox series X.
An obscure little game called The Witcher 3 and a few small DLCs for it.
This really just boils down to devs opting for style over substance. And it looks like they might have even failed at that. The game industry has grown into such a big business and pulls in so much revenue now that it's indistinguishable from the film and music industries.
They're focused on image, marketing, and style. That's what sells to the broadest possible audience. Substance doesn't mean shit. Get used to it. It's only going to get worse.
STFU incel
is crap.
johny silverhand is a bad guy and forces your mind into an android after he comes back to life as a cyberghost also jackie dies you cant ban me for spoilers because I used spoiler tags faggot
They still ban you for this btw, not sure why though
I dont think they started until 2016 after witcher 3 and all its dlc. not an excuse the game just looks so buggy and jank that there's no way it reflects 7 years of development

ITS GOING TO BE GREAT
ITS GOING TO BE PATCHED
SHIT THE FUCK UP CHUD
Game has really been in development for 5 years with small amount of people, only went into full team production when witcher dlc was finished.
THIS, the entire game feels and looks like something that a woman thought would be fun, that's why it's so sterile, that's why they included all the pandering bullshit, that's why there is shitty mumble rap, unironically and i do not hate woman, but unironically woman ruined this game
At first it was PRG like New Vegas
later they removed RPG and turned everything into narrative driven action game
But they didn't change marketing and still advertised this game as RPG.
It's all so tiring.
I KNEEL TO SHAZAM,
PUT ME IN THE SCREEN CAP THIS IS LEGENDARY LMFAO
gamergate happened
This, but vice versa. Consoles always go first. Sorry, thems the rules.
The next gen systems came too late and now the highest selling PS4 version will be a pos and CDPR's rep will be damaged, people expected a Rockstar quality product that's how it was marketed.
Scope creep.
Every single time, fucking hell
It was a combination of factors
A lot of the original development team left. Leading them to be replaced by a LOT of women and millennial developers. Like says this would have largely been in response to gamergate which was objectively the worst thing to happen to the video games industry probably ever in hindsight.
is correct too. Having to run on PS4 and XB1 mean everything has to be scaled down and reduced in scope.
Overall they bit off more than they could chew in terms of scope and scale, while being limited by consoles and a hoard of new women giving their shitty feminist input.
Trannies happened
Discord and reddit became really upset that there weren't any black people in the Witcher, then became REALLY upset at a transphobic (not really) tweet from CDPR, went on a years long crusade against the company as a result, and you were dumb enough to buy into their shit.
But after all that time and effort, CP2077 will sell, will be remembered fondly, and no tranny will ever truly be cared about. I can't stop smiling, knowing how ass blasted reset trans shitters are, and it's not even out yet. I'm going to kill every trans NPC in the game, and spam the video day and night, until every tranny has been driven out of this life.
they had to rebuild the game from scratch after 2018. if you notice the 2018 game looks remarkably different to what they're releasing this year, it looks rough and filled with bugs. V in 2018 looks different from the V now, current V looks like a Witcher 2 model, whereas 2018 V looked like an evolution of the Witcher 3 models.
retard
Women happened
Yes it was in development hell since all developers were working on Witcher 3 since 2016 when they released Blood and Wine. And the development started from there literally from scratch. Before they were fucking around with pre-production, planning, creating believable world, writing story and characters.
Lol, retard. The games looks better now than in 2018, these are actually comparison, graphical comparison. They just changed model. Models are actually improved right now, lighting also, textures also etc etc...
Bloat. This is a problem that is plaguing modern game design. The constraints of older hardware led to some of the greatest games ever made because there was only so much room to fit the game on an old cartridge. This is why there are so few modern masterpieces. It's sad when you can go back and play Super Mario Bros. 3 and it's still better than anything you've played in the last decade.
No, terrible management and cheap developers diversity hires to gain browny points
not really, 80-80 % of the studio are men. Most women work in HR/Marketing department. Most of the lead people in the studio were working on Witcher 3. Why people talk about stuff they have no idea about.
>7 years
people still think the development started when the teaser was released? jesus christ the dev ONLY started for real after the blood and wine dlc for the witcher 3 was done
Nothing happened? The game has great reviews, it would be ~95 if not the glitches and bugs. Its filled with great content and will sell extremely well. Cope.
it took 10 years to develop TF2 and I don't see shitlords talking about that
>the entire game feels and looks like something that a woman thought would be fun
they put all their focus on graphics instead of gameplay. it came back and bit them in the ass.
what we're left with a run of the mill game with demanding yet mediocre graphics since they haven't gotten around to actually optimizing the thing.
I guarantee most of Zig Forums wasn't alive for The Orange Box.
He is correct unfortunately
