There's too much hype for it to live up to

>witcher was saved because it’s a book adaptation and didn’t need any screenplay
>many important developpers have left cd project red
>have to come up with an entirely original story and with philosophical ideas
>improve game mechanics
It’s written all over it. But it’s not gonna because people will be super hyped because of “from the studio who brought you the highly praised witcher series”

No worries, shills will do their job. Just look how good it worked out for bitcher 3

If I can play Media without killing anyone or just speech stat checking I will cream. Just progressing the story by filming shit and putting it online. that is my pipe dream

It can be both. Cyberpunk is a niche genre. Look how a fantastic movie like BR 2049 bombed at box office.

It will be the greatest game of all time AND a failure that kills CDPR.

We dont know shit about the game and its already at that "too big to fail" state.
Dont kid yourself.

...

>Greatest game of all time or blunder of the century
This attitude is stupid as fuck.

>have to come up with an entirely original story and with philosophical ideas

Not really. There is plenty of stuff set up in the cyberpunk manual/guides/codices/etc. Actually, there may be more established lore for cyberpunk than there is for The Witcher.

It all hinges on how well they do the combat.

TW3's combat is shit so if they don't make a point to get devs experienced with shooters it's going to be full retard.

This. Also there's no information on the game.

The only thing we know is that it's going to have a fucking huge open world, larger than TW3, and it's also going to have "seamless multiplayer" which doesn't sound too appealing. I can already see the countless "FUK ALWAYS ONLINE" threads in my mind just like we had with Hitman, and Hitman didn't have a quarter of the hype this game has behind it.

Or it'll be a decent game that isn't amazing or shit.

it has to be not like tw3 and we are good

I really hope to god that they get their inspirations from games other than bamham and ac or tw3

Doesn't seem like anything to me.

>there's a skeleton inside of everyone, including you.jpg

I literally have $1500 set aside to build a new PC for when this game comes out if my CPU can't keep up with whatever flagship card is out at the time.

They better not fuck up

you forget that it will mainly be developed with the ps4 and xbox one in mind

if you can run tw3 maxed you will also be able to run cyberpunk for sure

who is this

I don't think you can really build a very high profile desktop with 1500, maybe if you recycle some parts of your current pc(case, hdd/ssd, power supply, case, ecc..) then maybe.

...

This is exactly what I meant by too much hype, I can't help but think you're going to be disappointed even if the game is good and end up asking yourself if the game was worth $1500

>hype
>nothing about the game is known
Why do you do this to yourself?

They also blew their load too early on the details.

That and I think they're too ambitious

I'm excited becuase it's an RPG that's not set in space, ye olde times or whatever. It's gonna be fun to walk around an urban environment

>show off a trailer for a game
>"Woah this looks cool! When does it come out?"
>"7+ years from now"
I hate this so much. Just show off a ton of trailers/gameplay when the game is within a year of release. See Fallout 4 for example. Shit game, but sold extremely well because
>Hey guys! This game comes out in the next 5 months.

how the fuck is there hype after the disaster that was tw3? I am seriously disapointed by cdpr and doubt that they will deliver.

I hope this game has romanceable holograms.

not even worried. it will blow everything out of the water.

BR2049 is shit and boring

...

I don't know how you guys get so excited about games that you know virtually nothing about.

did they at least say which city?
is it actually set in 2077? - mean, we legit thought there will be something vaguely resembling Cyperpunk in mid-20's during early 00's, and people in late 80's legit thought there will be one in early 00's, but it's looks like shit is getting pushed further and further back but isn't 77 a fucking overkill?

It was a recruitment trailer

>games that you know virtually nothing about
Mike Pondsmith, the creator of the entire cyberpunk genre is working with them. That's enough for me, he will ENSURE it is good.

Epic bait lol

but not know about something automatically makes it more interesting because it makes you curious about it.

DELET THIS

>but isn't 77 a fucking overkill?

Not if the world includes altered history, which it very well may.

>160 GOTY awards, literally steamrolled everything else in 2015
>disaster
how do you function?
I'm not talking about your subjective experience with the game, whether you enjoyed it or not, but how do you call it a fucking disaster with a straight face?

Since 2077 will have some influences from Cyberpunk 2020, what tabletop rpgs would Sup Forums like to see get a game adaptation?

...

another VtM game

Being VtM back to life right fucking now, the werewolf game will probably be shit

...

Because it has oversight from the man who made the original PnP RPG so we may get a real fucking RPG

Isn't Gamma World pretty much Fallout with superpowers?

I'm going to buy the most expensive physical edition just because CDPR releases their games physically with the entire game on the discs and doesn't require Steam. But with their GOG bullshit, and them saying this is going to have "seamless multiplayer", I wouldn't be surprised if they stop releasing proper physical editions and just have a GOG code for the physical edition. If that is the case I'll just pirate it.

CDProjekt had a great deal of background to use from the Witcher series.
Now they have a rule set to work off of.
Are there any books or anything set in the 2020 world?

They are on their own in a genre that nobody cares about.
Add to that the ill will engendered by their caustic fanbase and this is not going to go as well as some around here believe.

Good Luck CDProjekt
You'll need it.

RIFTS. I want to be a Glitter Boy

ccp sitting on the wod licence and doing jack shit with it

I would actually see ccp delivering when they somehow manage to pull their shit together, but man are they stupid

>Are there any books or anything set in the 2020 world?
lol, it's an entire pen and paper tabletop RPG system, they have way more material to work with than they did with Witcher trilogy. The CREATOR of the ENTIRE CYBERPUNK GENRE is on their dev team. I always laugh at you peasants who have no idea what Cyberpunk 2020 is at all.

PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY

There will be no doubt CDProject will cater to waifu fans.
They know their audience.
Bioware tier but around 75% less gay.

I enjoyed it, but ultimatively was disapointed
it delivered nothing new and was mediocre at best
only the detailed world stood out.
the quest design was beyond lazy gameplay broken and uninspired. not to mention the broken promises

also who gives a shit about goty awards when the whole year is filled with mediocre games

Yes you can you idiot. PC'S ARE CHEAP TO GET IF YOU STOP BUYING FROM THE RETAIL JEW
BUY FROM THE FUCKING MANUFACTURERS OR DON'T BUY FUCKING PREBUILT YOU MORONS

Paradox owns it now and there's a Werewolf game coming from the devs of those Styx games

William Gibson is working on this game?

>BUY FROM THE FUCKING MANUFACTURERS
you mean just buy parts form eshops, right?
who the fuck buys cards straight from the factory?
do they even sell them like that?
I wouldn't complain but I'm not really aware of such option

Ghosts of Albion.
It's perfect too, because no one's done a proper Victorian age RPG with heavy occult references.

>William Gibson inventing cyberpunk
no, Mike Pondsmith did that.

>The CREATOR of the ENTIRE CYBERPUNK GENRE
William Gibson?

Yes I mean buy them directly from the manufacture, and yes you can do that. They really like it when you do that too. They'll give you a special discount most of the time and will also give you tons of coupons and offers even if you only bought something from them once years ago.

why do you keep bringing up an entirely unrelated author when we are talking about video games? Cyberpunk was created by Mike Pondsmith

1/10 bait, I can't believe I'm even replying

It's going to be shit because the head developers at CDPr keep leaving en masse.

Yes they have a ruleset to work with.
Is there any fiction available set in 2020?

Books?
Movies?
Anime?
Anything?

I am sure the blurbs from the rule book are entertaining but is their anything substantial?

It baffles me that CDPR didn't buy the rights to World of Darkness. I'm 100% sure that if they made a huge VtM game it would be extremely successful. It's not like they don't any interest for vampires as that was the main theme of Blood and Wine.

>bait
guess i have to spoonfeed yet another retard

>Michael Alyn Pondsmith (born April 14, 1954[citation needed]), typically credited as Mike Pondsmith, is an American roleplaying, board, and video game designer. He is best known for his work for the publisher R. Talsorian Games, where he developed a majority of the company's role-playing game lines since the company's founding in 1982.[1] Pondsmith is credited as an author of several RPG lines, including Mekton (1984), Cyberpunk (1988)
>Cyberpunk (1988)
BLOWN THE FUCK OUT

OK, I'm on ASUS Global, I'm browsing the cards, where is the add to cart button?

Source?

Varying people are leaving or have left the company already. This is nothing new, for any company. The autist is just shitposting.

there are probably about 30-50 books

I would assume a 30 year old PnP has amassed quite a lot of fluff

I want a new Vampire game but Werewolves is what Obsidian is looking to do next. Which doesn't appeal to me in the slightest, hell I'd do another Mage game before I did fucking werewolves who wants an entire RPG centered around that?

Why is WtMB so cozy??

The Lead Level Designer (Mateusz Piaskiewicz), Senior Gameplay Producer (Derek Patterson), Project Manager (Ovidiu Traian Vasilescu), and Senior Art Producer (Michal Stec) have all left the company. What's notable is that they all left the company around the same time, at the end of September.

gamepressure.com/e.asp?ID=1702

That's different. You can cut off some expendable code monkeys, but multiple lead developers just leave all at the exact same time isn't common place.

He's so rad

Cyberpunk 2020 has crazy amounts of worldbuilding. Plus they're closely working with Pondsmith.

>Obsidian
But the Werewolf game is being made by Cyanide Studio and here's a bunch of info from E3 about it and some concept art:
dreadcentral.com/news/235724/e3-2017-cyanidewerewolf-apocalypse-seeks-bring-world-darkness-life/

You are confusing the Cyberpunk genre with the game Cyberpunk 2020.
Whether that is intentional or not is too be seen.

btw
Neuromancer came out in 1984.
Go google it.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Gibson
>William Ford Gibson (born March 17, 1948) is an American-Canadian speculative fiction writer and essayist widely credited with pioneering the science fiction subgenre known as cyberpunk.

>he fell for the bait
Really don't care.

>Isn't common place
It means absolutely nothing. Their contracts may have expired. Some of them may have received better opportunities. The Senior Art Producer could have fulfilled his contract and went on to the next job requiring whatever art is required for example. We have no idea what it's like working for CDPR, which is why it's fucking stupid to try to claim any of this is good or bad.
>That's different
Not at all. Other projects I follow have had "lead" people leave. They were replaced with no issues.

Can either of you name one?

>it's another nigger who uses wikipedia for history and sources episode
Alright, I'll play by your game.

>William Ford Gibson (born March 17, 1948) is an American-Canadian speculative fiction writer and essayist widely credited with pioneering the science fiction subgenre known as cyberpunk.
Beginning his writing career in the late 1970s, his early works were noir, near-future stories that explored the effects of technology, cybernetics, and computer networks on humans—a "combination of lowlife and high tech"[18]—and helped to create an iconography for the information age before the ubiquity of the Internet in the 1990s.[19] Gibson notably coined the term "cyberspace" in his short story "Burning Chrome" (1982) and later popularized the concept in his acclaimed debut novel Neuromancer (1984). These early works have been credited with "renovating" science fiction literature after it had fallen largely into insignificance in the 1970s.[20]
>Gibson's early writings are generally near-future stories about the influences of cybernetics and cyberspace (computer-simulated reality) technology on the human race. His themes of hi-tech shanty towns, recorded or broadcast stimulus (later to be developed into the "sim-stim" package featured so heavily in Neuromancer), and dystopic intermingling of technology and humanity, are already evident in his first published short story, "Fragments of a Hologram Rose", in the Summer 1977 issue of Unearth.[9][44] The latter thematic obsession was described by his friend and fellow author, Bruce Sterling, in the introduction of Gibson's short story collection Burning Chrome, as "Gibson's classic one-two combination of lowlife and high tech."[18]

>one of them joined Techland instead
Dying Light 2 confirmed?

It still doesn't change the fact that I feel like werewolf is 10x more restrictive than vampires were.

Being a beast based creature for an entire game is a huge risk, I hope you can atleast be a warewolf hunter.

This seems like such a bad concept for an RPG which makes me fear for the state of the WoD property already

oh wow its actually coming out

I didn't play it nigra
search for Cyberpunk 2020 supplement or some shit

why do you keep linking an author who has never worked on any form of game in his entire life? in b4 HURR MOVING THE GOALPOSTS because you're a retard who got proven wrong in front of all your friends

t. uneducated shill

Pondsmith even references Gibson as the creator of the genre, don't be dumb

Also I doubt they would just decide to leave the company just like that if it wasn't a shitty place to work at, plus the game just kicked itself into full production last year. They left mid production. That's not a common practice to just quit working at a company in the middle of developing a game.

>We have no idea what it's like working for CDPR,
Apparently it's pretty bad and a lot of people have been leaving the company.

hooktube.com/watch?v=wBuoexbVEFE

Why would he do that? Gibson has nothing to do with Cyberpunk (again, for the fifth time, the GAME)

Quit being autistic, /lit/

>Much of cyberpunk is rooted in the New Wave science fiction movement of the 1960s and 70s, when writers like Phillip K. Dick, Roger Zelazny, J.G. Ballard, Philip Jose Farmer, and Harlan Ellison examined the impact of drug culture, technology, and the sexual revolution while avoiding the utopian tendencies of earlier science fiction. Released in 1984, William Gibson’s influential debut novel Neuromancer would help solidify cyberpunk as a genre, drawing influence from punk subculture and early hacker culture. Other influential cyberpunk writers included Bruce Sterling and Rudy Rucker.

>Early films in the genre include Ridley Scott’s 1982 film Blade Runner, one of several of Philip K. Dick's works that have been adapted into films.

>Gameplay will split between three main werewolf forms. There’s the humanoid form, best for diplomacy and trying to interact with the human world. Then you have the wolf form, which gives you increased mobility and tunes you in more acutely with the spirit world. The third form is for combat, a hulking mass of flesh and fur that’s great for ripping things apart. A core element between the forms is managing your rage, which will cause you to frenzy when it boils over. Frenzy turns you into the ultimate unrestrained killing machine, unstoppable in combat but unable to distinguish between friend and foe. It isn’t the same, “hand your character sheet over to the DM,” that it was in the pen-and-paper, but rest assured that there will be consequences to letting the beast take over.

>state that some nigger invented the concept of cyberpunk
