Noah Caldwell-Gervais | What Kind Of Game Did Cyberpunk 2077 Turn Out To Be, Anyway? [SPOILERS] @broadcaststsatic | Uploaded March 2021 | Updated October 2024, 3 days ago.
This is a video review and critique of Cyberpunk 2077, one of the most infamous flops of recent years. A lot of what went into it flopping that way was impossible or misguided expectations of what the game actually was, what areas it would creatively focus on and even what genre it was. This video analysis attempts to see the game for what it is, good and bad, warts and all. Spoilers throughout including every individual ending.

This is a video review and critique of Cardboard Computers groundbreaking work of surrealist Americana, Kentucky Route Zero. It attempts to describe a game that makes a herculean effort to thwart description. To do so, I try to go through some of the main themes and artisitic methodologies present in the work and try to argue that even the weirdest things in this game deserve to be there. Maybe especially the weirdest things. Spoilers throughout.
