CD Projekt RED Announces Cyberpunk

I wonder if this scene will be changed because of the gender thingy? I mean... it says it "does not represent the final look of the game" and the word Her and Girl are used in this gameplay slice so maybe that will be changed?

 

dunno the quartering reported yesterday that genders were intact, that you as a play could make a "male" and female" character, that "non binary" stuff was overblown, so who knows. the spokesprson that spoke seemed to be as clear as mud and he alleges that he spoke to people at cdpr that says genders are intact.

dunno if it makes a ton of sense to replace a ton of text and recorded pronouns to neutral at this point. games in final bug/polish or damn near it.

 

Wow, I'm so glad I missed this discussion. Appalling to say the least!

Am I the only one here who thinks this game is visually underwhelming? I mean the character models look OK, but the environment, lighting... looks dated already.

 

I think it looks realistic enough. At night or inside dark buildings it looks better than in daylight, but that's normal.
We havent seen any weather effects yet, like dust or fog or heavy rain. Maybe in the badlands the game looks totally differrent who knows?
It's a bit early to say it looks bland tbh, it's still work in progress and a stream hasnt the best quality.

 

I watched it in 4K, but the video still looked blurry. I hope that footage didn't come from the PC version.

 

You can spot strong temporal artifacting in some fast moving scenes. Similar to RDR2. So it's either because of strong TAA or lower res render + TAA reconstruction.

 

Yeah I agree. It doesn't look like native 4K at all for sure. Must be from a X1X developer kit, or directly from an X1X.

 

So the Deep Dive video is 14:20 minutes? That's it? I was expecting something like last year's 48 mins video to be honest. This one is a lot more scripted and on-rails and very condensed. I'll wait a few days maybe they'll release the "full" version later.

 

The best 15mins ever.

 

Pawel Sasko i like this guy. He is very cool

 

Yes, you are.

 

Definitely gonna play as a solo first, I want terminator abilities!

 

I wanted to see a well-presented lengthier video, something no one asked for nor expected to see last year. They set the bar themselves, we were (mostly) all positively surprised by what we saw. This new Deep Dive video, compared to last year's, has about 10% the "Wow!" factor in it, doesn't have the same overall atmosphere and is massively edited, cut and on-rails. When it comes to "building up hype", for me, last year's demonstration was a solid 10 out of 10 example on how to mind-frack a new audience to something you want to sell to them. This year it feels like a 4 out of 10 in execution and presentation (and length).

I'll still buy it and obviously I'm still excited for it, but the excitement I have for the game still comes about 95% from last year's video alone. They did a phenomenal job with that one.

 

I don't know how to put it, because I want the game to be a great success, but I wasn't impressed and did anyone pickup on the graphics and animations?

All I kept thinking about back in my head was "downgrade" and I was expecting at least 30 minutes of gameplay and roaring V8s, not clips from various scenarios.

However I'm sure they'll manage to fix any issues in the next couple of 6 months, but I had very high expectations it being CD Project Red and all.

Also why do they always have to showcase games (most of them anyways), while playing on a gamepad, it looks slow and antiquated.

 

It's running on PC with 2080Ti and RT. Definitely upscaled, you can see the checkerboarding on the edges of everything. Objectively speaking, it does look worse than the 48 minute reveal.

 

NVidia always shoots for at least a 30% performance gain with each GPU cycle. There used to be bigger jumps when AMD was more competitive, but it's been a very long time since AMD has fielded a GPU that can compete with NVidia on the high end. Lets hope AMD's next round of RDNA2 GPUs has what it takes to put NVidia back on their heels so that competition will spur on cheaper prices and faster GPU evolution.
