CD Projekt does not regret the first-person perspective in Cyberpunk 2077, it will “see” what it will be like with the second person

You don’t want to get stuck like “many other companies.”

There are many big differences between them the magician And Cyberpunk 2077. One of the biggest is perspective. We play with Geralt in third person and V in first person. Paweł Sasko has worked on both series and during a Q&A session with investors (thanks, VGC) The transformation explained.

CD Projekt does not regret the decision, and Sasko believes they wanted to give the game its own identity.

I was one of the people who started developing prototypes for the Cyberpunk system using Witcher technology. What we wanted to do was give Cyberpunk its own identity and make it noticeably different.

Thus the first person point of view helped CD Projekt build its own point of view Cyberpunk– identity, and Sasco takes the opportunity to give competitors (even if they are not mentioned by name) a scoop of cash.

As creatives, we also need to change our mindset, not stand still. I don’t want to give any examples, but you know there’s a lot of companies or IPs out there that are kind of like assembly line production or copy and paste.

We didn’t want that to happen to us.

With the next one Cyberpunkknown by name “Orion”Sasco doesn’t want to say what the plan is: “we will see”. So it’s like you’re living as you learn, and not locking yourself into performing.
