Oh, Cyberpunk 2077 — It's incredible to think that the game that launched miserably has been lauded as one of the best RPGs you can play right now, a few years later, as it prompted a class action lawsuit. At least, if you have Steam's current "overwhelmingly positive" recent reviews, you can go for anything.

PC Gamer Wes Fenlon made an excellent writing of that journey last year, but as a crash course in a brief history: At the launch of cyberpunk2077, it was a buggy beyond belief on PC, and the borderline couldn't be played on ps4 and Xbox One. It's not actually playable, so PlayStation removed it from the storefront while offering a full refund. 

CDPR went down the bunker, issued a series of patches and improved the experience step by step, but until the Edgerunners Anime, Phantom Liberty, and the 2.0 Update Triple Wamy the perception began to shift and the game became popular again.

It's a story of redemption that gave me, some rather complicated feelings as a person who did not play it until after the game was fixed. I got to enjoy a great game devouring dozens of hours of my life and, for the blessing, was mostly bug-free. I also knew it took me nearly 3 years to get there.

Nevertheless, the story of Cyberpunk redemption is reflected in Steam's "Recent review" score, which (at the time of writing) leads to 95% positive reviews out of 7,043 in the past 30 days, a testament to how the game is actually fixed, according to Quest design lead Pawel Sasko on Twitter. It's an emotional uplift.

"I can't imagine how much it means to me," Sasco writes, "I've never been close to giving up and always believed that this could be possible in some way, but I never thought I'd actually see it." Thanks so much for the second chance chooms."

Several other developers of CD Projekt joined with sasko to express their gratitude. Michašzbrzešniak, the cinematic designer of the game, wrote that the redemption of the game "is the result of our (developer) continuous efforts and your (player) continuous support."Senior lead weapons artist Michal Kalisz also adds: "You can not even imagine how much this means for all of us. Starting from the bottom, now we are here."

I think we all prefer a world where the game was released at its best — and Cyberpunk certainly wasn't completely terrible at launch and got 78 Cyberpunk 2077 reviews. But even that relatively glowing score came with recommendations for that "onslaught of bugs.""

Still, the overhaul applied to Cyberpunk2077 is commendable, even if the climate of the industry that caused its tinsel release was not exactly great, and I'm glad, for one, that Cyberpunk 2077 has finally gotten that moment under the sun .
