Guy comes into a thread about overhyped games that people didn’t like, and tries to argue people’s opinions are wrong.
I also could not get into the game. It felt like a slog to get through for me. The idea of playing it over and over to try out different builds feels like torture.
You are welcome to your opinion, but you’ve come in hot to a discussion about games that people didn’t like. Which games did you bounce off that other people seem to enjoy?
I mean I replied to someone who obviously didn't play it after the bugs were fixed in the phantom liberty update. There are genuine complaints about cyberpunk but bugs, nah. Not anymore at least.
And for me Undertale, KCD, Civilization series, and really most indie platformers. I don't like shitty graphics.
You mean you don't like certain artstyles. Because them games have better graphical fidelity than Cyberpunk, they are just not chasing "realistic" features.
Yes Undertale truly is a pioneer in graphical fidelity lmao I do love me some 8-bit graphical fidelity
It does? It's pixel art sure, but the quality is higher, it's crisp.
Cyberpunk 2077 is blurry, with weird ass checkerboard rendering. It uses lots of approximation techniques. You can't disable the forced TAA in game, you have to modify ini files or use mods. And if you disable it you get a whole bunch of new problems.
Cyberpunk 2077 suffers deferred rendering, relying on TAA or DLSS (hello ghosting). Developers chose to trade quality for detail. Sure you get more light bounces, more realistic reflections, but you also get a worse overall image.
It's not thinking, its just facts. If you are happy with the look of Cyberpunk 2077, then thats fine, no need to get defensive. But the other games certainly dont have "shitty graphics", they just dont have the style you like.
