I wonder how this game got released in the first place. In another life I worked as game tester and I am sure that most issues I read on 2077 must have been caught in those test. If Sony really cares about their brand more than fearing the competitors they could have stopped the release.

I can imagine a year-long crunch where the devs are so tired and the codebase so messed up that the progress is not goes nowhere.

You end up in a situation where you either need to have to start from scratch, or you release a half-backed product and hope it all works out in the end.

I can’t. We are not talking about a start up trying to deliver a product to test the market as soon as possible but a gaming studios delivering a polished experience. I really hope they didn’t have such amateur problems

The rumor has it that CDPR got special treatment from Sony regarding certification - it normally wouldn't pass it, but got accepted anyway due to production's high profile and a promise from the studio to get things fixed with the day one patch. In the end the patch didn't fix things nearly enough so here we are today.
