When it launched, I had it Day 1 on PS4.
It was fuuuuuuuuuuuuccccccccccked. Crashing, performance was shit, bugs galore, janky textures. There were a lot of people who ended up with a dogshit product from a playability perspective.
I played through it and beat it while it was still in rough shape, because I loved it so much anyway. Obviously, it improved later and it ran well when I upgraded to PS5 (and better when there was a PS5 version released). This game is currently on my PC, because I bought it again just to keep playing it there. It runs great on Linux.
CDPR used to just be a name you trusted because they built a reputation. They hurt their rep with the launch for CP2077, especially after their marketing "Out when it's ready." But they have also done the woork to rebuild it, we'll see with Witcher 4. Big promises to fulfill for that one.
Yeah everyone I've seen complaining about the launch had it on consoles. I played it on PC a couple days after launch and played through the whole thing in a week or so because I was off work, and don't remember having a single crash or issue.
