(+) Yeah! (+)

https://www.techradar.com/amp/news/cyberpunk-2077-loses-over-75-of-players-on-steam

Ooofff

I mean, its a single player RPG with a linear story progression.

---

Cyber really good value by 2022

---

is this game multiplayer?

---

Good i got modded for saying it sucked and well...

Edit: warned actually

---

Normal for this type of game

---

Uh yeah, they beat it.

This. Big games scare casual players and Steam has tons of data showing that no one ever finishes games.

---

did you think this meant anything?

end game had 60% less viewers it's second week. WHAT A FLOP!!!!!!!!!!

---

If a game isn't multiplayer i'm usually done with it in 3 weeks too.
---

yeah i beat the game and did all the endings I wanted with reloads to the choice point. Really don't see any replayability. Character building/skill tree sucks, just +5% modifiers with different attacks. It's the same thing but with a different voice and customization that you never see. All combat feels the same anyway and cyberdeck is just not fun to specialize in.

Sucks console players got fucked but it's a fantastic PC game despite its flaws
---

Same thing happened with Fenyx Rising, which is also about the same length.

The only reason Cyberpunk is getting singled out is because its bad press is easy attention.

Sounds like most single player games?

---

Pretty sure it's still higher than Witcher 3 ever was

---

Its single player tho, they got the money

---

"its single player tho"
*cough*skyrim*cough*
that game is still killing it and people were expecting cyberpunk to be similar

yeah it is doing pretty good but still a pretty small community and more than 90% stopped playing it since it released in 2011.

do you think 75% of people are still playing skyrim? do you think a game out for 3 weeks has the community mods of a game out for a decade and remade and ported more times than gta5?

lmfao. my point is that single player games can have hundreds of hours of replayablility and people can constantly go back to it. Cyberpunk just isn't one of those SP games. This topic is acting like any game without MP is a 3 weeks then done game.

---

Most likely a large portion of that number finished the game and left it at that.

The vast majority of them are and it says literally nothing of the quality of a game.

Most people don't even play a singleplayer game for 75 hours, let alone replay them for hundreds. They move on.

---

Why are people so desperate to say Cyberpunk wasn't a financial success? That's literally impossible to argue.

Unless im extremely busy im not putting more than 3 weeks into a single player RPG

---

Yeah there's not much to do once you've played the content unless you're trying to get 100% of the achievements but worst-case scenario you can probably get that in a few hours on a new char if necessary.

---

How many times is this gonna influence people's perspectives until they realize it's how it works with most single player games....

It took Witcher 3 six months to lose 75% of its players. Try again.

So they played through it once or twice and moved on to something else. So what?

---

Thought this topic said "Cyberpunk is 75% off" and was like WTF for a moment.

Not that weird considering the amount of content cut.

This is totally fine for a single-player game.

---

Its really not.

Game would have been good 8 years ago.

For what is worth, 25.9% of Steam players have "The World" achievement which means they beat the game. 26.5% of people have the Witcher 3's "Passed the Trial" achievement which means they beat the game.

I think a lot of people dropped Cyberpunk faster since they beat the game faster. Not only is it a shorter game, but it was released during the winter AND pandemic when most people are indoors and have a lot of free time to spend on the game. Witcher 3 was released in the summer during normal times so people weren't going to stay indoors to quickly finish the game.

The spin from these CDPR cultists is insane.
