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.

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.
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.
CD Projekt announced that an early stage of work on a sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 has started and, to quote a classic, it’s déjà vu all over again.
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.
Lord of the Rings MMORPG game, that was suppose to premiere in 2021, has just been added to the growing list of titles in development and then abandoned by Amazon Games.
The next-gen update to Fallout 4 that was linked to the premiere of the Fallout TV series was quite a surprise for the players. I mean, Bethesda does not have a great track record when it comes to fixing or improving their titles after they are published. But as they say in the gaming universe, "Bethesda, Bethesda never changes".
Microsoft just rolled out its upgrade of their AI-based tool called Copilot. Or should I say "downgrade"? Because their users are somehow unhappy with the changes that were made, and it is another exa...
Yes, it is another round of not that smart people giving interviews and telling the masses that AI is gonna replace them all.
