Or to be precise slightly better. For some users. Yes, CD Projekt Red, finally came up with patch 1.5 and... it’s still far, far, far from what was expected from the game.
With new patch available today for PC and consoles CD Projekt Red added new weapons to the game (two new weapons to be exact, three if you count throwing knife), few additional apartments that you can choose and redecorate, some technical fixes to crowd reactions and something that we all were waiting for - a mirror! And to quote classic - th... th... th... th... that’s all folks.
It took CDPR just slightly over 1 year to add some new features into their game and to be honest it’s hard to find players that would be impressed with size and content of the 1.5 update. Yes, it’s better than nothing, yes, it has made the game slightly better, yes, it contains some features that were promised years ago, but at the same time there is still long list of features missing from game 14 months after premiere. For example: non-laughable police system, chance to travel using trains, pedestrians that would make the city feel like living organism, most of the RPG options...
It’s nice they’ve done something, but at the same time they put the bar so low that doing anything would be better than what they did the whole last year. And taking under consideration that the average number of Cyberpunk 2077 concurrent players is way below 15 thousands throughout last 12 months it could be too little too late for the title to bounce back and be relevant again.

CD Projekt Red announced that they work on Witcher 4! And... that’s about it. No, I forgot, we now know the title! And that is really it.
To no-one’s surprise another big title have just completely cyberpunked on the premiere - buggy, under-developed, remade to appeal to everyone. And ended up quickly forgotten. Yes, I mean Saints Row.
After almost 2 years of empty promises and pointless roadmaps that never materialized it looks like CD Projekt RED finally gave up on saving the dumpster fire that Cyberpunk 2077 was. I mean they put up another patch.
Cyberpunk 2077, new game from CD Projekt Red studio, premiered on 10th December 2020 and, just like rest of the year 2020, it was a painful experience. Although after about 8 years in production developers made history, I don’t think that was the way they wanted to do it.
Online games come and go, with introduction of modern technology that allows game clients to use high definition graphics, the lifespan of online games if quite often much shorter than the time is needed to make one. Why? Because of the silent killer called learning curve.
Another company, Pixie Interactive, just went under due to absolute morons in charge, who thought cryptocurrency is the way ahead. What can I say besides Pixie Interactive kicked the bucket, Pixie Interactive shuffled off its mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleeding choir invisible. This is an ex-company!
Life is full of tough choices and one of the hardest ones to crack is who can you trust? In some cases the answer is pretty simple: no one.
