I would rather have co-op than a multiplayer frag fest in these types of games. I think a true RPG like 4 player co-op should be welcomed. Something along the lines of the console Baldurs Gate but with Skyrim/Witcher RPG elements.

I think every game can benefit from coop it just a matter of how its done. If you have a game that's telling a story for just one character have it where coop is lock till you complete one playthrough then just have a generic character for the other players. Id l9ve to play last of us with my girlfriend she Or explore skyrim together.

I don't mind this , I always play a lone in co-op games , i don't see anyone interested in playing with me and even if i found one it's annoying waiting for my friend to play a certain game especially when it's awesome. Also , i already see games easy on hardest difficulty so playing co-op make games easier ..

If the graphics are similar (or hopefully even better) than PC I'm picking this up for the PS4

Good, i dont mind a bit of co-op, but like most guys said, some games dont need it.
For me Witcher is a pure single-player experience like most rpg's, roaming around, considering paths, talking to people, buying stuff etc... generally an easy-going and immersive experience which would be broken with someone tagging along.

For me co-op is suited for when you have a clear path or goal, like go thru the cave and fight the boss at the end, actually perfect example would be Demon/Dark Souls, that game utilized it perfectly.

Roaming and exploring is a single-player experience.

I dont think many gamers realize coop just would not work in some games and it is nice to see cdpr will not attempt coop like some developers. For example I sure DAI will have some form of multiplayer just watch.

thanks, no co-op no buy, it does not have to be forced co-op but drop in drop out system, open world games need some form of co-op game play

and for people to say no, seriously so long as it is not forced or have some lame AI partner following you co-op is good, this is real issue when developers put some dumb AI followers which ruins the gamers game experience

Agreed, totally fine with me.

I think everyone can only think of co-op just one way, but if they think out of the box co-op can be very good. Maybe if co-op were smarter, like if you had up to 6 players in a campaign that didn't have to always stay together and can explore individually, but when they meet up or all together then the game adjust the difficulty to how many are playing(stronger/more enemies, more/better loot)

I don't have a problem with co-op if it's just a drop in system such that the 2nd player has no bearing on the story, simply gameplay (increased numbers of monsters, people). Halo got it right.

Over 50% is PC. RE9 was the same

From this moment henceforth, Xbox hardware shall simply just exist but have no significant bearing from a business standpoint or from a gamer culture standpoint. It will simply be there for the people that want to have it and that's fine if they're selling it at a high price and actually making money off each sale.

But they should never ever again be Xbox fanboys anymore than they should be Lenovo laptop fanboys it's just a piece of hardware that exists to serve a purpose for niche group of people.

I’ll say this. Cyberpunk had a tumultuous start on console. Even if it had sold like crazy, that whole almost unplayable fiasco and being given no questions asked refunds made a lot of people not look back.
When it comes to PC, people are a lot more forgiving of things like that, especially on Steam, because of the return policy. I really think console manufacturers should implement the exact same refund policy. Was it played under X time? Refund it. It makes people take that risk on games a LOT more than on console. Bought this game and it was broken? Refund it. They said they fixed it 3 months later? Buy it again. It’s fixed but just not fun? Refund it. On console you don’t have that luxury. Was it downloaded? GG. No refund. Lord knows my Steam library is full of “I’ll try it” games that I loved and I’m glad I can take a rush on. On console, specifically PlayStation because I’m not buying Xbox games, I take calculated risk. Known developers. Shinobi, Ninja Gaiden ragebound, stuff like that. Obviously big exclusives and games too. I would have never tried Little Bookstore on PlayStation, but on Steam… why not? Hellish Quart? Why not. Buckshot Roulette? Why not.

this is why console sales matter, folks.

Never gonna complain at this especially as I havent played the PS5 version yet. Give me a Pro patch 😂😂

They're finally fixing the godawful inventory system? Yes!
