I guess what I am saying is it was organic. Cyberpunk and many other games that are hyped are hyped because of marketing campaigns done by the the studio. People get the game, it sucks, and people are mad.

This game just existed, the community decided it was awesome and got their friends to get in on it and so on. It blew up because it was fun to play and the the devs weren't shitbags. The devs didn't expect it to blow up the way it did, thats why the servers sploded.

This game blew up organically, due to players experience. I am still having a blast
