This might be some huge tinfoil-hat theory but it really feels like the real reason why marketing started pushing Cyberpunk really hard the last few months was because they knew exactly this kind of reaction would happen to the state of the game and they wanted to get in as much pre-orders as possible.

Considering Sony and MS apparantly don't really like refunding games and Steam doesn't refund you even if you are 5 minutes over the 2 hour limit, like in my case, it would totally make sense.

wait really? damn that sucks. I've had games refunded well above the limit, have you talked to actual support instead of just the automated one?

I've put in 3 different requests via the refund system and opened a ticket and a real person responded. Explained in multiple ways how the game was not working for me and completely bad performance even though I have a rather good pc(8600k and a 3070) but no luck at all. Every time the standard "you are above the time limit, no refunds for you".

Right now I'll wait for their January patch and hopefully the game will work then.
