IN THE SPOTLIGHT

Cyberpunk 2077

Thanks CDPR!!!

WOW. And not it a good way. This game is a polished up version of games like Brink, Homefront and Fallout 76. The developers at CDPR feel that they deserve your money now and in return they will give you this lipstick covered pig.

CYBERPUNK 2077: The Final Straw

Never forget what they said before it's release and CDPR took your money. In hindsight the wording is just vague enough that yes they are right but in the context of a game that works on release, one that promises to be immersive and revolutionary. NOT what we were given. A game in a horrible almost unplayable state that fails to deliver on any of it's lofty goals.


An excerpt from VGC. This was from an interview with a developer at CDPR on November 22,2018 with VGC:


"That’s the level that CD Projekt RED wants to go for with its next game, Cyberpunk 2077. Speaking to brokerage house Vestor DM, CD Projekt RED revealed that they are working on getting as much polish in Cyberpunk 2077 as there was for Red Dead Redemption 2. Whether or not CD Projekt RED will be able to achieve that level, given the general state of bugginess of its previous title, or whether it can achieve this without the kind of excessive crunch that Rockstar allegedly imposed on its employees remains to be seen.

“Without a doubt, quality is of paramount importance,” Kiciński says. “We strive to publish games which are as refined as Red Dead Redemption 2, and recent Rockstar releases in general. That game is excellent, by the way, we are rooting for it. Rave reviews, excellent sales. What does that teach us? Well, it teaches us that we need to publish extraordinary games, and that’s exactly what we are planning.”


Why Join?

We at Preorder Promise are here simply because the industry has failed us. It has taken advantage of our generosity and trust. We aim to get enough people together that predatory business practices that game developers like CD Projekt Red, EA Games, Bethesda, and many more continue to do so without being held accountable. It was out of that need for accountability that this collective began. With a group of like minded individuals together we can start to fight back. Sign up today with making a promise to NOT pre-order that next big game until one week after it's release and together lets all put a middle finger to those slimy corporate executives and put an end to this shady way of doing business. 

With your help in participating in this grassroots campaign can we stop a disturbing trend in the gaming industry that is selling us a bill of goods that doesn't exist.

Cyberpunk 2077

PC, Playstation, Xbox, Stadia

If your here then you know that this product is not changing the gaming industry. Unless the industry is trying to die, then yeah good job guys. Well done.

Homefront: the Revolution

PC, PS4, Xbox

Another Broken promise. Read below about what was supposed to have a great system for players to get involved in before they just took the money and closed shop. One more reason Preorder Promise is here.

FALLOUT 76

PC, Playstation, Xbox

Take a great franchise, loyal fanbase and poor execution have this Fallout fall flat of it's face. Broken from day one and still is years after it's release without addressing the real issues that plague this game as they continue to release DLC's but they got your money already so they got that going for them and don't really need to fix much because who is holding them accountable? Next time if we don't give them the money upfront maybe they will try to make something playable at release. Just saying.

Make your pledge now! Help STOP the Corporate greed and join our collective army today! 

Raven's Cry (2015)

Named top 5 worst games of the year by Gamespot

An IGN review By Brandin Tyrrel on Feb 2015 said - "Raven’s Cry is a mess of bugs, hazards, hiccups, oversights, and progression-halting crashes. If you never set foot on land, its ship-to-ship combat might be respectable, but this adventure insists on taking you places no self-respecting pirate captain should go. Sail clear of these trouble waters – here be dragons."

THE ORDER: 1886

BORING AF! It’s just bad, forgettable in every conceivable way. Game mechanics that were bland and a world that was just unable to hold your attention. The Order: 1886 is a very bad game. Not  made without skill but because it’s an average-length, story-driven shooter with minimal replay value.

ASSASSIN'S CREED UNITY

The verdict on IGN for Assassin’s Creed Unity by Marty Sliva on (Updated: May 1, 2017) leverages the new-generation consoles to add spectacular new sights and successful co-op multiplayer, but in doing so, it’s created some substantial new problems instead of solving the series’ most persistent ones. 

No Man's Sky 

Developer Hello Games has kept it promise to fans and over the last 4 years has become one 
of the industry's greatest comebacks ever. Check out No Mans Sky on Steam today! 

"It's so Immersive!" Was it tho?
