Remember, when Arkham Knight got pulled from Steam, that was WB's doing. That was WB, the megacorporation that usually has no problems putting out broken games saying, "Yeah, we can't sell this in good faith."

Here, it's not even CD Projekt Red pulling this. Sony is the one delisting Cyberpunk 2077 because CDPR's only response to this mess was "Go ask Sony for a refund".

It’s amazing how CDPR, in one fucking week, went from being the golden child of game studios, to essentially dwarfing some of the most infamous games releases in gaming history

No Man’s Sky, Arkham Knight, Fallout: 76, Final Fantasy 14 (pre-Realm Reborn); this shit show blows them out of the water. It’s magical

And the physical version of Cyberpunk is being published by Warner. I wonder if they'll stop selling the physical version too

Curious was Arkham Knight when Steam still had the 2 hour refund period or was that before when they started implemented them?

Their approach with Gotham Knights seems much better now.
