#3Wow what a disaster. I hope leadership is held to account for such poor judgement.

#5This is incredible, and must be devastating for the development team, especially after all that crunching.
As someone who's worked on a (digital-only) title for Xbox One, I'm surprised this game got through the certification process in the first place. From our experience the platform holders are pretty involved, and we regularly gave MS updates on everything from monetization, to UX and controls, to extensive reviews for updates, which caused headaches when the client lagged behind our other platforms.
Unfortunately for the developers, the fact of the matter is that there are tens of millions of base PS4s and Xbox Ones out there, and gamers got a bait and switch during this launch. As terrible as it is for them to get the rug pulled under them, Sony risks a lot more by not issuing refunds for incredibly broken products. A lot of the appeal of console gaming is the relative plug-and-play factor that comes with it, and the software regularly costs more to boot — via higher pricing, lack of sales, or both.

#6What a disaster. I feel sad for the staff that spent all of that crunch time on that quixotic fever dream.

#7They shouldn’t even bother offering it on the PS4 and the old XBox. It plays well on the PC and I presume the newer consoles.

Right? Like how could you make this many bad calls to get your game to the point that one of the main platform holders has yanked the game off the store and issue refunds. CDPR rushed it out the door to get that end of fiscal year revenue (unless I'm mistaken) and satisfy impatient investors, only to lose a lot of good will with their fan base, miss out on game of the year awards and recognition, and to be a meme generator for people to poke fun at the game. Yikes, that's a series of unfortunate events and some really bad management. Someone should get the chop over there.

Running x570 chipset with 128gb RAM and RTX 3090 with AMD 5900x and updated non beta Windows. Crashes every ten minutes. Wish it played well....

#10Incredible. And I don't think this is something a year of patches will be able to fix. Also, I hope this is a wake up for the review industry at large who has largely overlooked the glaring issues that extend far past the bugs.
