Aye, they try to hype the idea of a main quest line as something that defines their design.

😅

Thinking back I'm not sure I want Witcher 4 to feel more like CP2077, tbh. Less, if anything.

Same! Pre-ordered and played hundreds of hours. It should've been released 6 months later but most of the bugs weren't game-breaking. If an NPC had their arms stretched out to the side or whatever, I'd just have a laugh and move on. I've had to reload a save to get a side quest to trigger twice. I don't think it's even ever crashed on me though.

It's just become blindly accepted that it is/was unplayable. I remember seeing so many articles months, even a year, after its release just confused about how so many people could be playing this unplayable game. Yet it's always been consistently in Steam's top 25 games for active players. It's a weird disconnect.
