    I played it on a dated PC (980ti) a few days after release, maybe a week. I didn’t understand the problem either. The gaming community is extremely fickle and loves to hive mind dump on things.

      the issue was that they marketed it like a RPG (where the source material comes from), which it simply isn’t - it’s GTA with a skill system and limited choices. I admit that i was disappointed, but the game itself is good and got a lot better with this patch.

      I mean it WAS actually a broken mess from what I saw.

      Im saying I always buy games on a deep sale well after it has been released so Im not particularly impacted.

        Yeah, my point was it wasn’t a broken mess (except on last Gen consoles), but the gaming community blew its flaws out of proportion.

        The game you’re playing as a patient gamer is close to the original with some polish.
