        echo chamber or sth, probably
        game was definitely less buggy then Skyrim, even with all official patches

        I waited. bought it later and thought it was a poor gta 5 clone. Same with rdr. guess I just don’t like that style of game. Loved witcher 3 though. shrug.

      It was a damn good game at launch, and it just got better over time. I defend it always since I had a blast, had very few and only minor bugs/issues, and got a ton of time out of it for the money.

      I think this is fine and nothing to apologise about. But those that played it on the (then) current gen consoles had an awful time with it.

      I understand the majority of players were on PC or newer gen consoles, but it irritates me if PC players argue it was fine because they didn’t see those issues. CDPR literally removed it from the PlayStation store and offered everyone refunds it was that bad!

    • I think I liked it more on launch than I do now. I had all of like 5 bugs my first 3 times through the game before they started changing things.

      • A dude that pops into existence during the scene at Tom’s Diner and Gumby t-poses out a wall
      • a random T-posing baddie when I zoomed in my first sniper rifle
      • the painting exploit
      • the melee weapon exploit when doing the boxing matches
      • the slow-mo bunny hop speed exploit.

      None of these negatively affected the game. In fact the last one was dope and I wish they didn’t fix that one at all.

      Coming back recently because of 2.0 and I get:

      • Stuck in 1st person while driving, which sucks because most of the cars have impossibly tiny windshields and I literally can not fucking see where I am going.
      • AI cars in traffic that just explode like they were hit by invisible cars, throwing them around or cars falling from the sky, sometimes on me and killing me
      • UI freezing so that I’m basically stuck with the scan mode overlay while I’m no longer scanning which requires a full restart of the game to fix.
      • The new skill system has a skill that says it lets you reload and another skill to shoot while vaulting but neither seem to actually work.
      • Tons of script related issues that break sequences in the quest I am on, forcing a reload. Sometimes several minutes prior because it has to be before the trigger that broke the shit.

      None of these are fun and they all impact the game negatively. :/

      I actually liked No Man’s Sky at launch, but I didn’t watch any of the pre release stuff.

      I heard people talking about it and picked up a copy on my way home from work on release day. It was fun got boring fairly quickly.

      Naw man, me too. Was it full of bugs on launch? Absolutely. Did it fall far short of the hype? Very. Was I having fun playing it? A blast, actually. I unapologetically love 2077 and feel like I got more than my money’s worth.
