      I just hope it won’t get quite as toxic as the reddit sub could get (at least back when I checked it a long while ago). If a sub has to make a “LowSodiumCyberpunk”, that means the community has serious problems. I hope this time around, we won’t need to split the community in half.

        Imagine subscribing to a community just to talk about how much you hate the game the community is gathered to bond over. Those folk lead sad, sad lives. FWIW, after Edge Runners, everyone jumped on the train going in the other direction so it got better.

        I have hope that Lemmy is pulling the cream off of Reddit, right now. The kinds of people that care enough to research a new platform and start to build it before it becomes the obvious better solution. We should be fine for a least a few years. At least until we get all the kinks worked out,

        Let’s be real though: It wasn’t the community that had serious problems, it was the game that had serious problems. It may well be that you did enjoy it, but pointing out all the flaws and bugs and CDPR’s shameful way of dealing with them is a valid thing to do. I hope we can agree that we don’t ever want to have such a catastrophic launch with any AAA game again, but given how the industry has changed with the big money it attracted, it’s not very likely that it won’t happen again.

    I’m still wondering whether it will be included for people who already bought the main game or preordered it. They suggested it would be previously, but everything points towards it being a paid DLC for everyone.

      100% it will not, I’m not sure where that idea came from? They never said there would be a free expansion that I ever saw.

        There were a couple mentions of it. Previously, purchasing directly from GOG would get you all future DLC, then later your purchase would be upgraded to GOTY edition. Eg with Witcher 3.

      From what I understand everybody will have to buy it. Of course it’s nice to get things for free (especially if they previously stated it would be). But if it’s good DLC rich of content I don’t mind paying. It was the same for me with the two expansion sized DLCs in the Witcher 3.

        Witcher 3 is exactly what I’m referring to - if you bought the PC version directly from CDPR on GOG, you got all future DLC and eventually the GOTY edition.

      I have the game on PS5 and the DLC shows as 29.99 in the PS Store preorder section.

        Yeah I was only referring to purchases for PC, from them directly on GOG. In the past they’ve included future DLC.
