Helldivers 2 had zero advertising that I saw and it slaps.

Cyberpunk might have actually delivered on its promises if they spent half of their advertising budget on the dev team instead of billboards.

And there's so much people in Reddit that defend cp2077 going "B-But le 2.0 fixed le game, it delivers everything!!!!111!1"

I wouldn't defend cdpr's shit but cyberpunk has been an objectively good game for years. No amount of hating the launch, company, or external factor will change that.

I posted on Reddit after CP77 launched that it would take them at least a year to fix the game up to actually working with what it launched with, and longer than that to get to everything that was promised.

Now... it has been a good number of years, and with everything other than multiplayer?

Theyve done it. It is an incredible game now.
