A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Edit: it looks like the banner is incorrect. On the front page of steam it’s the right dates and says summer, but when I click on it to see all the sales it says spring with the dates for the spring sale. It’ll probably get fixed soon.

It's more stable, interesting, and alive than any Fallout, Elder Scrolls, or GTA game in my opinion. If you like any of those, there's a good shot you'll enjoy it.

I think Skyrim feels more alive because you can talk to every NPC and most of them have unique conversations.

Most NPCs in CP2077 are animated decorations.

While true you can talk to more NPCs, the largest city in Skyrim has like 40 people. I find cyberpunk's world feels more realistically populated for a giant city.

It looks more realistic but it breaks immersion when they turn out to be not interactive.

But yes I agree that CP2077 has a realistic looking crowded city.

I feel like it never broke my immersion cause how often are you stopping every stranger in a real life metropolis to talk to them? Seeing all these nameless people walking by is very much what it's like to walk around a city in real life.

I love all of those. I’m excited to play it tonight
