And it's honestly because I have gotten so used to half-baked major releases. So I am mad but I also admire CDPR, if you don't know; a few months back they delayed to fix bugs until March; but all I can think of is getting my hands on the game, how cool it is that it will be a polished (and Polish- *salutes the mother land*) product, and I am mad becuse now I have to wait until fri[i]gg[/i]in March.
Sorry, but considering the fact that most Triple AAA devs crank out games at the behest of publishers ridiculous time frames, CDPR is taking a comparably brave step, a good one but a personally infuriating one.
It's not the first time it's happened in gaming history, hopefully won't be the last, but CDPR is doing a stand-up thing despite there being the ongoing threat of a pandemic looming over everyone's heads. The studio put out a statement saying something along the lines of; they refused to put out a buggy half-polished game. For a publisher of over a thousand employees, it's refreshing to see that the management has not lost sight of the fact that they are creating games and not simply using a studio resource to produce profitable pixels.
As a lover of esoteric games, and the art of games (yes I like the AAA boom booms too occasionally, but if were being honest- it's really more than that.) like Death Stranding, Lisa, Carrion etc. It is so gorramn refreshing to see a huge title like CP get some actual solid treatment from it's publisher.
And that's not even mentioning how they've been good to their employees.
rant over
tl;dr- CDPR is best developer/publisher and it pisses me off to no cognitively dissonant end because they want to make their game better but it's taking so long!
EDIT: correction- the game is still coming in November, I read about the multiplayer coming in March 2021 and became confused...
[spoiler] I feel better for letting that out, look; I will be patient but I will be loud about the fact that I don't want to be patient. [/spoiler]
