vjek: While it certainly isn't ideal for reasons that I'll mention below, if you rename basegame_5_video.archive to anything else (like basegame_5_video.archive.orig , for example) and then start the game,
it loads directly to the screen before the main menu. No intros, no waiting, no watching the same middleware advertisements for the 400th time.
In game, this has consequences, not the least of which is some videos no long display. However, their audio and subtitles do, so.. your call. :) If someone knows what software handles and/or creates .archive files, the suggestion to place an empty/blank .bk2 with the same name in place of cyberpunk2077_game_intro.bk2 would likely work perfectly.
Any idea how this is packed? I have tried to open with 7zip but it wasnt opening. If the archive can be opened it can be recreated without the ads and healhcare mothering.
