Plz no loot boxes, plz no loot boxes, plz no loot boxes, plz no loot boxesWe still don't know all that much about CD Projekt's Cyberpunk 2077, however we did learn last year that it could feature "seamless multiplayer". Now, company CEO Adam Kiciński has suggested it'll include online elements so as to ensure its long-term success.
In conversation with Polish investment site Strefa Inwestorow (via TechRaptor), Kiciński explores the areas in which Cyberpunk aims to improve on The Witcher 3's success, despite remaining tight-lipped on the particulars.
Here's the man himself (don't forget subtitles, assuming you don't speak Polish):
"We want to experiment in new fields that were not yet explored in the Witcher," says Kiciński above, as translated by YouTube's English subtitles. "I can’t say much about Cyberpunk, although our ambitions are set really high because that is our style of work. We want to go even higher, and especially seeing how we’re having a business chat, we’re interested in Cyberpunk being commercially even more significant."
On that point, Kiciński is asked about the possibility of multiplayer in Cyberpunk 2077.
He replies: "Online is necessary, or very recommended if you wish to achieve a long-term success. At some point, we have mentioned that there will be a certain online element related to Cyberpunk."
Make of that what you will. In the meantime, here's everything we know about Cyberpunk 2077 at this stage.

Hopefully that doesn't mean loot boxes. I don't hold CDPR on the same pedestal of perfection that some do, but it would be a crying shame if they were tempted by the route of easy money. If it's just some sort of multiplayer mode then I'm generally fine with it so long as it doesn't affect the single-player experience.

It could be online coop, pvp, housing - but we all know it's going to be freaking lootboxes.

How the hell would loot boxes even make sense in a CD Project game? How would you imagine loot boxes in the Witcher?

Cyberpunk is based on a multiplayer tabletop rpg like shadowrun not a novel. So item drops with random stats will be a thing. Gotta hack into this vending machine? well just 500 Cyber credits purchased on the PSN and Steam will get you where you need to go! and how about these lockboxes of gear! Originally Posted by Raqubor

somebody should tweet them back and ask them how would lootboxes work in a 'hypothetical RPG with guns'

Let's just wait and see before assuming it's going to be loot boxes. Being one of the few decent companies left, i'd hope they don't go down this path.

I'm cautiously optimistic. I believe the developers have earned the benefit of the doubt given how well they handled The Witcher 3. It wasn't just the base game that was handled with love and care - the two expansions were as well. Both of which are richer in depth on a standalone basis than some of the games that have come out in recent years.

No but seriously, what in the actual fuck. I'm going to remain cautiously optimistic and hope that this isn't going where I think it is. Originally Posted by Warwithin

Its going to be like what Rockstar did with GTA, completly abandon singleplayer for that online money.
Im still salty about not even import some of the online cars to SP.
