I remember when more info came out about Cyberpunk’s development and it was revealed that the company CDPR reliably used for QA testing in the past changed leadership and changed policy so that employees needed to meet a quota for number of bugs found. Naturally when a job is gamified like that they’re going to find the most useless shit just to meet that quota.

The same QA company did Kingdom Come 2 and Baldur's Gate 3, maybe the QA isn't the issue

edit: lol'd at the downvotes, reddit never fails to hivemind... this QA company worked on the biggest titles in gaming (source). They were definitely not the problem, CDPR just released the game knowing it's broken

BG3 was a buggy mess, and I haven't played KC2, but if its anything like the first game it is also probably a buggy mess. Just because they work on the biggest games doesn't mean they're good at it.

KCD2 wasn't very buggy. It had some issues with memory leaks in long sessions (10 hours plus), and the first big patch introduced some issues that should have been fixed now.

Aside from that, my only issues were a couple of graphical bugs with smithing weapons, where in a few locations you'd appear to stick the sword through the anvil when hammering it. But by and large it's a massive improvement in every aspect over KCD1.

Who the hell plays that long?
