Curiously I haven't had any of those glitches, bugs, crashes, performance dips and so forth that supposedly plague the game since release... For me it has been nothing but enjoyable since I bought in in 23.

Haven't you run into bugs with the newly added car chases going CTD? I eventually realized it was due to using my choice of non-lethal quickhacks messing up the scripts, why didn't CD Projekt RED? Player experience can vary based on playstyle.

That's great for you, I'm happy you got a bug free experience. Overall that has not been the case for most, you're the outlier. Maybe now with the dlc I'm the outlier, I can't say. Most reviews I saw only talked about the dlc and not replaying the main game.

But even ignoring performance, the original marketing even up to weeks before the release contained promises that were never delivered. That to me sours anyone comparing this to no man's sky, which has received dozens of major updates compared to Cyberpunk's one.

Oh yeah i didn't want to diminish your experience, the game certainly was plagued with a disastrous rushed launch and still doesnt deliver everything people wanted out of the game. But i found it quite enjoyable gameplay in an amazing and compelling setting and have curiously not experienced any of the issues others seem to have. Even playing it under Linux was a non issue for me. That being said it is of course completely valid to refund the game if your experience was this terrible.

I'm still hopeful I'll drop back into it and get past any crashes. It's a very beautiful game and I'd like to finish the story lol. Plus everybody went crazy for the dlc story and I'd like to see that. Wish I was you lol
