    I played Cyberpunk with all side-missions at launch, I don’t think it was unfinished.

            While your arguments are convincing, I’m still pretty sure I did, though. As have others, I would suspect.

              Good for you for finishing the game but that wasn’t the point I was making and I think you know that. Finishing an unfinished game does not mean the game was finished.

                  Yes I know what you said, peanut. So either you’re an idiot who decided to drop their meaningless comment in or you’re not an idiot and you know very well that we are talking about the relative states at launch of Starfield, Cyberpunk and No Mans Sky. Just because you finished the game doesn’t mean the game was anywhere near finished, to the extent that it took a further two years of development for them to get it into reasonable shape.

                    That I finished the game was not evidence either way, it was to give perspective on my opinion. Cyberpunk definitely had its problems (NPC behavior, police, many people reported game-breaking bugs (which I didn’t encounter at all, btw.), unplayability on older consoles…). And finished/polished and so on are obviously matters of semantics. However - while you can disregard my opinion, look at the steam reviews of these three games. Cyberpunk was „mostly positive“ a month after release and „very positive“ within the same year. It took NMS 5 years to get to „mostly“, and it is still sitting there. I would be mildly surprised if Starfield ever gets there again. Pigeonholing these games is unfair.
