Cyberpunk 2077 is without a doubt one of the most anticipated video games of all time. It looks great, and it\u2019s developed and produced by CD Projekt Red, who previously brought us The Witcher series, so it\u2019s easy to see why gamers are so excited about it. But too much hype for a game can easily backfire, something streamer Moistcr1tikal explained in his December 7 video which looks at the \u201cunrealistic expectations\u201d that are surrounding the open-world game. Cyberpunk 2077 already has a \u201ccult\u201d following The content creator started the video by reassuring viewers he\u2019s excited for Cyberpunk 2077 too, but he\u2019s critical of gamers on Reddit and Twitter who are anticipating a \u201clife-changing experience\u201d from it, which is an \u201cunnecessary amount of expectation\u201d to put on a video game. \u201cIt is, at the end of the day, probably just going to be more of what we\u2019ve seen before from video games. Just very good writing, a very good universe, it\u2019s going to look great, and I think the gameplay\u2019s going to be fun,\u201d he explained. \u201cBut I don\u2019t think it\u2019s going to live up to these absolutely absurd expectations people are putting on this game. An entire cult is developing around the worship of this game pre-release. It\u2019s crazy to me, and I don\u2019t really understand why.\u201d Timestamp below at 03:34 He went on to question the internet\u2019s unwavering loyalty to a game that hasn\u2019t even been released yet, and urged players to lower their expectations and actually play Cyberpunk 2077 before deciding what they think of it. \u201cI think you should definitely wait to play the game before giving them the status of Game of the Year forever, the perpetual perfect game. That sh*t needs to wait until it\u2019s in your hands, you\u2019ve played it, and you can form an opinion of it,\u201d he said. \u201cBut that\u2019s just my take away. I\u2019m excited for it, I think it\u2019ll be good, but I think it will disappoint an incredible amount of people no matter how good the game is because it\u2019s achieved Half-Life 3 levels of hype\u2026 this is up there with The Bible 2. This sh*t is crazy.\u201d Cyberpunk 2077 will finally be released on December 10, eight years after it was first announced by CD Projekt Red. The game\u2019s faced several delays throughout 2020, and early reviews have warned there could be some \u201cgame-breaking\u201d bugs at launch \u2013 although there will be a Day 1 patch that will hopefully fix those.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Moistcr1tikal explains why Cyberpunk 2077 \u201ccult\u201d could kill the game CD Projekt Red \/ Moistcr1tikalYouTuber and Twitch streamer Charlie \u2018Moistcr1tikal\u2019 White has shared his concerns that a \u201ccult\u201d of Cyberpunk 2077 fans could lead to the game\u2019s downfall.
