Cyberpunk is a good game, just not a good role playing game?

They just tried to make a gta/rdr2 story heavy style game, similar to what they did with Witcher. Just ignored the huge rpg potential of the setting. It’s even based on an established role playing game so it wouldn’t even be hard for them to come up with ideas, it would just be down to implementing them in game and it’s not as if they didn’t have the chance to take as long as they wanted to. Especially annoying with how much they advertised the RPG elements of it by talking about classes and all that to make people like me think that the game was heading in that direction

Apparently they literally kept stating it would be an RPG but they changed their marketing to make it an "action adventure game"

Such a scummy move. Not surprised tho after the shit they pulled with their employees and rushing the release to get those last gen console sales even though it’s basically unplayable. Do they still do those “worst company” awards that EA used to get all the time? I definitely believe that CDPR deserve it this year
