But now the game is so close they can almost taste it, and several reviews have already come in singing the game's prai

Unfortunately, this does not count as the first instance of so-called "fans" taking things to an uncomfortable degree of despicable behavior this year. It's not the first time the discourse surrounding Cyberpunk 2077 Story Guide|Https://Cyberpunk2077Fans.Com/ 2077 has centered on the horrible actions of certain segments of the community, either. Upon announcing the RPG's third and final delay, CD Projekt RED staff were sent death threats and other abusive messages from people upset about a game release's 21-day postponem

The question of accessibility in video games is a big one. By their very nature, video games are a highly visual medium, which can make it much harder for people with visual issues to partake. A YouTube video released back in August shows the difficulties of trying to play a video game with partial blindness , and appeals to the video game industry for help. More and more developers are becoming conscious of video game accessibility, and that's good, but it's a conversation that can never really

Unfortunately, when the game hits shelves on December 10th, not everyone will be able to fully enjoy the bright lights of Night City. Liana Ruppert, a journalist for Game Informer , issued a PSA yesterday warning epileptic fans of an overabundance of flashing lights in the game which could potentially trigger seizures. Given the high-tech nature of the game's setting, this is perhaps understandable, but that doesn't make it any less dangerous. Among the many potential triggers Ruppert outlined were decorative lights pulsing in multiple bars and nightclubs, as well as a glitchy visual effect which appeared every time Keanu Reeves' character Johnny Silverhand appeared onscreen. She also identified the game's braindance mechanic as a major threat; the headset that protagonist V uses to engage with this mechanic in-game bears an unfortunate resemblance to a medical device used specifically to trigger epileptic episodes, and is roughly as effect

But barring one final last-minute delay, Cyberpunk 2077 is officially less than a week from finally hitting shelves, and fans and developers alike are gearing up for the release that seemed like it would never come. In order to usher in this legendary game, Cyberpunk 2077 is partnering with Twitter to hold a virtual launch party called CyberNight . The event will feature developer Q&As, exclusives, and "surprises & more." It will be hosted on Twitter on launch day, starting at 6PM

The release of a major game like this is always an exciting and busy time for video game fans. To make matters more complicated, Cyberpunk 2077 is launching during the infancy of a brand new console generation. In order to make this console divide easier for players, CD Projekt Red is issuing a day one update that will let PS5 players experience the game on next-gen technology. The technical specifications of the game are something that a lot of fans have been wondering about. After all, given the game's bombastic, high-tech setting of Night City, it's understandable that players will want to make sure their various machines can handle the neon-plastered dystopian glory. One fan on Reddit used an accidental early copy of the game to reveal that it has separate modes for performance and quality , with different emphases on frame rate and graphical resolution respectiv

A Reddit user has leaked facts about _Cyberpunk 2077 _ after apparently receiving an early copy of the game. CD Projekt Red's long-awaited RPG is finally set to release next week on December 9th, after a long line of delays. The most recent holdup actually surprised the developers as much as it surprised the fans, as they were apparently not made aware of the delay until the news went public on social me

CD Projekt Red's commitment to addressing this issue is promising, though. It's always good to see developers recognizing their faults and making their games more accessible to all. One can only hope that CD Projekt Red's promised solution will come soon, and that _Cyberpunk 2077 _ will be worth the wait for all gamers, regardless of what conditions they might h

" We had those issues in Germany, too. It’s mainly streaming issues - when the settings are too high for your setup the game is unable to stream the content and stuff starts to go missing (animations, audio, lipsync, objects). Adjust settings and it works waaaay smoothe

Much of the reaction to this Easter egg was in good humor, with many jokingly wishing that CD Projekt had instead used an image that has become a dreaded sight for eager Cyberpunk 2077 players: the yellow screen that CD Projekt has used to announce delays. Commenters joked that if the developer had used that image instead, it might have triggered heart attacks around the world that Cyberpunk 2077 would be delayed yet a fourth time and so close to its rele
