Same for me. I don’t understand why, I should love it but I don’t.

And do you seriously think that someone with minimal modding knowledge can “fix” texture compression

Yes, better textures are consistently one of the first mods to come out for every game they have released since Fallout 3.

There’s a few single player focused ones released in the past decade. Deserts of Kharak comes to mind.

And yet Verdun, Tannenberg, and Isonzo are some of the most fun multiplayer FPS games around.

Original release date was actually announced as 2014 originally (during the 2012 Kickstarter), iirc.

Well I’m having plenty of fun with it, and I haven’t even installed 2.0. If it was a release from this year it would be my second favourite after Baldur’s Gate. So I strongly disagree with your dogshit assertion. If the DLC and 2.0 make it better then it’s for sure a redemption arc. And from the looks of OpenCritic, seems like a very universal feeling.

If everything was there from the get-go, how would there be a redemption arc? There would be nothing to redeem.

A redemption arc is when someone or something starts bad or reviled, and eventually comes to be seen through other eyes. Looks like that applies to CDPR and Cyberpunk to me.

PV panels, not really, but concentrated solar can and does kill birds. Not nearly as many as coal, though, lol.
