More information.

I'm hoping this will be fully patched by 2077.

I'm looking forward to playing this again someday after they're finally done fixing and tweaking it. Hopefully it'll at least be close to the game I thought it was going to be in the first place.

CP2077 is not my kind of game and I won't be buying it but it's a bummer that this game was released in such bad shape. I really marveled at the way CDProjektRed released Witcher 3 with all the free content and a seemingly genuine orientation toward gamers. I hope this entire catastrophe is just a "speed bump" and not reflective of future performance by this company.

When are they done patching? I remember reading about "free DLCs" and actual DLCs which were supposed to be released following an approximately similar schedule to W3. Hearts of Stone was released five months after the main game. That means that we should hear about the first DLC for CP2077 soon.

I haven't played it yet and look forward to doing so, but I'm patient enough to wait longer for it to get patched further. Bu it is a good question… how long will they keep patching? I guess I feel like JDR13, holding out hope for the game most hoped it would be. Either way, I'll play it at some point though.

With the game coming back to the Sony store this coming week I have a feeling they'll start doing more than just patching very soon.

Finished the game three times and that was before the third patch. It worked fine on the PC. I'm just waiting for that promised free DLC that was supposed to be released.

As for expansions I'm afraid to say we'll have to wait till next year. As they just hired a new game director named Gabriel Amatangelo. He is from BioWare and worked on DA:I.

The appointment follows the departure of former quest director Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz, who has stepped down from the position and left the studio.

Amatangelo joined CD Projekt in January 2020 as a creative director for Cyberpunk. Prior to the role, he worked as design director on Dragon Age: Inquisition DLC, as well as lead designer on various expansions for Star Wars: The Old Republic.

I'll be curious to see how this all pans out. I read recently that one investment group is demanding the founders step down.

Everything a *Investor* demands is related to making more money and spending less development cash.
If they are really successful with that demand, it'll turn CDPR into another soulless Development Husk.

They fucked up, they should just move on to greener pastures… This game still needs years of development of new content, entire sections of the city where empty… Why anyone didn't refund this is beyond me. It was half done at release clearly they used majority of time just to build assets.. and that just isn't done in a day not for map that size and for a rpg world.

The genre swap didn't go the way it should.
They should just go back to witcher world… rest in peace cybercrap 2077

That's simple: because it's a good game. Not a superb game as the majority of the community probably expected, but still good.
Only a Sith deals in absolutes.
