fleathemighty 81 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Dude calm your tits. Cyberpunk is a long way from even being published lmao. And what has CDPR even done to get people so hyped up anyway? Yeah they did Witcher 3 which was crazy good. But that's one title. One single good title and the world goes ballistic over this company. They are overhyped just because they have consumer friendly business practices. But remember the facts. They have only one really good title and a bunch of mediocre games. I don't want to count how many groundbreaking titles Rockstar have under their belt. Now, I expect Cyberpunk to actually be a very good game, but I find it ridiculous to compare it with the next, yet to be announced, GTA. It's like a guaranteed fact that the next GTA will smash the market records again and be the king of sandboxes, as it's been the case since 2001. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
GRANDHEIST 2,526 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 R* has the advantage here, cause VI releases after Cyberpunk Housers will surely whip the workers to do any changes if necessary 1 Link to post Share on other sites
t-p-d-a 215 Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Cyperpunk has a big mouth... Rockstar Games will just release a Teaser of GTA VI.. that's it, nothin more... and i like that. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Copcaller 675 Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 (edited) Nah cyberpunk is like witcher 3 a story driven rpg with a open world that emphasizes on choices to make you feel immersed in their world where rockstar is a open world crime sandbox genre I don't think you'll be able to mow down random civilians in cyberpunk . Theres some overlap but each game is gonna sell millions and millions of copies plenty of dough for everyone. That said cd project could definitely teach rockstar a thing or two when it comes to being more ethical to your consumers and workers. Tl Dr cyberpunk wants to be like a open world tabletop rpg while gta wants to be a open world crime sandbox genre Edited July 31, 2019 by Copcaller 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Western Gunslinger 1,810 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Looking back at this thread it's still funny how people are so optimistic that Cyberpunk will never dethrone the almighty R* and GTA 6 Fast forward to 2020, Dan Houser left R*, RDR2 and RDO is still plagued with bugs and both game is pretty much dead, GTA V is still getting milked and will be first next-gen game they're going to release, and still no info about GTA 6. Meanwhile CDPR is still consumer-friendly as usual, and CP77 will be released soon 2 Link to post Share on other sites

GRINCH ASS BITCH 385 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 (edited) This reminds me of the "Watchdogs will kill GTA" threads that used to pop up back before GTAV's release. I'm seriously hyped for Cyberpunk, but there's no doubt in my mind that it'll go the same route as all of the other supposed 'GTA killers.' Despite the fact that quite a few of the posters on this site (myself included) don't even like/play GTAV or GTAO anymore, I know, just as well as all of you, that the moment R* even breathes 'GTAVI', the gaming world will come to a halt, just like it did on October 25th, 2011 (or was it the 26th? I don't remember). Edited July 17, 2020 by GRINCH ASS BITCH 1 Link to post Share on other sites

There's a bit of a difference between those "GTA killers" and Cyberpunk. Cyberpunk is an RPG many of those other titles weren't and I mean RPG in the traditional sense with skills, levels, character classes, dialogue options, and branching storylines.

Ryo256 1,436 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 (edited) Ever since Rockstar has adopted the strange path of having heavily scripted games that restrict player's freedom, combined with open-world sandbox nature that is supposed to ironically promote player freedom, I think its competitors have a chance to make R* sweat a little. Because the pure sandbox freedom aspect of GTA games was their unique strength but now it has been weakened. Cyberpunk 2077 has a chance of landing a good hit on R* since V hasn't aged well and VI is a no-show atm. And after playing RDR2, I'm quite convinced we won't see another SA and IV again. So yeah, Cyberpunk 2077 has a good chance but I wouldn't bet on it. Too much fanboyism from R* side IMO. Also Cyberpunk 2077 seemed to have carried forward some of the weaker aspects of Witcher 3 e.g the meele combat (in recent gameplay trailer).

Absolutely, and speaking of my own personal experience, an enjoyable, traditional RPG-styled game would keep me playing far longer than any GTA game, but judging by GTAV's total sales to date (I know, sales do not equal quality), brand equity alone will be able to carry the next GTA.

YNNEL 1,643 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 (edited) I can’t see it. I mean I expect Cyberpunk to be a great game but Rockstar are always that one step ahead. They have a lot more money and resources to put into their games. Rockstar games are always going to be a bit ahead of the curve. I’m playing Witcher 3 atm after putting it off for years. And it is a fantastic game. And I say that as someone who’s never been a fan of the genre. Edited July 17, 2020 by YNNEL Link to post Share on other sites

EliteGamer_6 557 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Ya when it release in 2077, while Rockstar will still be re-releasing GTA 5. So yh I think that in 57 years we will finally see someone challenge Rockstar. Link to post Share on other sites
Zello 18,856 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 This is how it is I guess for open world games. Cyberpunk will get some respect, Watch Dogs will get ignored, and R* will get all the praise. Link to post Share on other sites

gta7dev 227 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Unfortunately the game is being over hyped to hell. It will be a disappointment because of people's expectations. It's going to literally be Witcher 3 with guns and people keep acting as if this is another No Man's Sky where your imagination is the limit. Oh and Witcher 3 was a mediocre game. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Retro_Causality 1,422 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 what is this obsession with gamers and always trying to put video games and game companies in constant competition with each other. Cyberpunk and the eventual GTA 6 are two different experiences that aim for two different things. Cyberpunk is a futuristic RPG, GTA 6 will be mostly a contemporairy look at Americana with fixed characters (with full backgrounds) to experience their stories and journeys vs. Cyberpunk's created character not everything needs to be compared or contrasted 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Kris194 6,121 Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 (edited) Laugh or not but it's greatest example, that you don't need sky high marketing budget to advertise your game. It also shows, that gameplay is most important thing, huge map won't help. At this point I'm thinking about buying Nintendo Switch only to play games made exclusively for this platform. We could only dream about such games when we were playing on Tamagotchi in 90s. Edited July 19, 2020 by Kris194 1 Link to post Share on other sites
