They've fixed Cyberpunk and it's a great game now. I learned with No Man's Sky that it's important to give people a second chance to fix mistakes. Nobody will always deliver a solid product on launch, eventually everyone will stumble. If it's their first time, I'm not going to hold it against them as long as they take steps to make it right.
They've fixed it to a point where it's a great game, I agree. But this post is about preordering and preordering and then having to wait for more than a year to play a properly fixed game beats the purpose of preordering in the first place. You could get it for a steep discount at that point.
They did stumble pretty hard and then try to obscure the glaring issues it was having up towards launch. And it was like, what, a month ago where the VP of CDPR said that "the launch wasn't that bad" and "people were jumping on the bandwagon." I mean, I personally don't like the game since it's focus is on things I don't care about and is lacking in the areas I do like.
