I wanted to make this post to just put a bit of positivity towards cyberpunk. At launch I thought it was a great game, I still think that even to now. I play on an xbox one x, and about four months ago purchased an external SSD for my xbox made by Seagate. On top of making my loadtimes honestly comparable to the series x, it also improved the frame rate. Now I don't have a tool to actually test that, but from obviously playing it at launch, I was able to tell the difference. That coupled with the fact that I just never really experienced a majority of the bugs that the other console players were complaining of, and my experience was very good. Alot of people have been shitting on this game since it's release and I get some of it, but also realize that the general gaming population has never dealt with a heavily modified Bethesda game that becomes it's own hellscape of bugs and glitches of your creation. Perhaps that's why I was more tolerant, but also from that perspective, Bethesda despite making some of my all time favorite games, really don't support their products all that well after they release. I mean there's still bugs and glitches present from the original Skyrim that are still in the Special Edition. It's honestly a little pathetic, but that's why I have alot of hope for Cyberpunk. This last update was a great one I think, it fixed alot of issues that a developer like Bethesda would have just ignored. I fired up a new game on Cyberpunk to jump back in and I'm hooked once again. My first character was a Nomad and clocked in at just under 110 hours, and there were still plenty of side missions to do. I stopped playing because of my deep and crippling addiction to Skyrim and modding, but wanted to get back on when there was another major change. CDPR despite people's opinions shifting about them these days, are obviously committed to making this game the full vision they wanted it to be, and I truly believe they'll be able to achieve it. I can't wait to see what the writers have in store next, and i know this is a long stretch, but bring mods to xbox so you can make the game as infinite as Skyrim and Fallout 4.
