"rushed job"

8 years of development

I don't know how CP77 turned out how it did, but it certainly wasn't due to being rushed. Either way, they managed to fix it although it took like 2 years or something.

As for you still getting GOG emails... Git gud?? Unsubscribing from a service's emails is the easiest thing in the world if you take roughly 2 seconds to make sure it's done properly.

Yeah and I fucking unsubscribed and they keep sending me emails and then I unsubscribe again and then they keep sending me emails and then I unsubscribe again and then they keep sending me emails...

You picking up on it yet?

And it was in development longer than 8 years it got rumored I can 2011 or something and then the teaser was 2013 I think I forget hold up I'm fuzzy rn. But you can tell it's a rushed product by the end result. if it needed more time it needed more time end of fucking story

Then you're doing something wrong, simple as. I've completely unsubscribed from GOG emails and it was ez. Literally just in account settings.

As for Cyberpunk, it entered pre-pro in 2016 and released in 2020. https://www.destructoid.com/how-long-was-cyberpunk-2077-in-development/ So really 4 years, so maybe rushed given the scale tbh. If they had released in 2022 it might have been in a better state, so I'll concede there.
