I would put fallout in there aswell..alot of the dual shaded xp drain, alternate vision and game camera feels of fallout
So the cool thing, from game production perspective is the amount of custom content + systems in that "setup to a mission" or a side story mission...The animations, enemy variations, characters, npc models, visual design elements and world building is quite a bit ..the scope of the game is actually the impressive part to me..i.e it seems like from narrative design + content perspective , they are building on an already impressive and immersive world found in witcher
).Now that you have brought up stealth I realize I loved Deus EX especially HR because of its stealth mechanics. I really hope CDPR also emphasize on stealth.The execution of gameplay elements seems to be good at this point. Nothing extraordinary, of course, as the game is another open-world adventure trying to do things differently rather than reinventing everything. I can see Deus Ex and Fallout makeup all over it (the scene where V goes for aug enhancement felt the same as the one in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided). The most significant difference is a more active and packed world with greater detail and verticality (at least in the demo). The only thing that will make it more than just another open world game, for me, is the story and how RPG elements shape the narrative. The Night City is going to be fun if there are plenty of things to do and the demo does give that impression. I would've liked to see the stealth elements - which were mostly absent in the demo except for some close executions - because, for a lot of players, including myself, it's much more fun to play with minimum gun action. Nevertheless, the weapons and gun action look good (that smart gun had zero recoil but I guess such things can be explained away because of technological advancements
Or weapon stats. Recoil was 2 on the rifle. While the shotgun was a 6.Nevertheless, the weapons and gun action look good (that smart gun had zero recoil but I guess such things can be explained away because of technological advancements
Haha! When I say it's not extraordinary, I don't really mean it as a negative. It's just that everything is more or less comparable to something else, which is totally fine. Plus, can't compare a sequel with a new IP.
Ofcourse, there wasn't enough crouching through foliage

Btw, not sure if that's a fair point. The game was announced in 2012 and we saw the gameplay in the second half of 2018.
And this is a fair point? They released Witcher 3 and two expansions since then. 150+ hours of content.Btw, not sure if that's a fair point. The game was announced in 2012 and we saw the gameplay in the second half of 2018.
Sure they've been working on something but I'm generally against this approach of keeping people waiting for that long. If they were not even primarily working on what they had announced, why announce it? Hype. Fine if they want to go that way but we should admit it.And this is a fair point?

If we follow your line of argument then as of today, we have seen more gameplay footage of Cyberpunk 2077 than Red Dead Redemption 2 and TLoU 2 combined. The former has been in development for 8 years and the latter for 5 years
Admit something which isn't true? They've said in interviews that they wanted to work on both projects simultaneously but the scope grew beyond the resources they had. To put things in perspective, RDR2 is being developed by ALL Rockstar studios.Sure they've been working on something but I'm generally against this approach of keeping people waiting for that long.

Not gonna happen. They have another game they haven't announced so even for next gen systems its highly unlikely. PC is the only platform where you can play all 3 games.
My point was about the announcement to gameplay reveal duration. RDR2 was announced in October 2016 and TLoU II in December the same year. Huge difference compared to Cyberpunk. I take that against Sony as well when it comes to The Last Guardian for instance or Bethesda with respect to the new TES (if we don't see it's gameplay in a long time, which is likely).8 years in development and how much has Rockstar shown outside of a 6mins trailer? Game comes out in 2 months. 5 years for The Last of Us 2 and they only released a 10mins video. Inconsistencies when you bring this up against CDPR, who just released 48mins of uncut gameplay, and not other developers
Damn, they should expand their workforce and make it happen. At least there's another surprise.
And now we have 48mins of uncut gameplay. Should be enough until the game is released
However, I will state that you're over simplifying the process of a game being in pre-production to full active development and studios tacking multiple projects at once. The theory that all this is being done just to 'create hype' has no basis in reality. 
Just because they showed something at this state doesn't mean it isn't subject to change for the better ...... or visually worse by release.

tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.Necrokiller said:
