            this is exciting. CDPR making good on promises after 12 years goes a long way to pull them out of the swamp that is their long term rep at this point, they did bad things and they're making good on their pledge to redemption. I hope it doesn't suck though lol.

                  Will take a lot more than making good on a decade-old promise to pull CDPR out of the swamp. The stuff that studio pulled with Cyberpunk was nothing short of corrupt.

                      Hey, they got Keanu Reeves back for Cyberpunk DLC. They are at least committed to trying to get Cyberpunk to at least neutral... or am I missing something? 'Nothing short of corrupt'?

                          CP77 problems weren't really so much due to its quality in terms of actual features or lack thereof - any issues in that department mostly came down to the ridiculous hype and unrealistic expectations gamers themselves had created prior to release.

                          what's very much corrupt though is consciously lying to your customers about the game running well on previous-gen consoles, and then pretending to offer refunds knowing well that Sony won't agree to it - ultimately resulting in the game getting yeeted from the PS store.

                              No, you're not missing anything. Cyberpunk 2077 had a rocky launch, it was generally better on newer hardware than older. 3 years later and the game is "Overwelmingly Postive" on Steam. The expansion is fantastic. Also as mentioned a lot of the "missing features" were features that were never promised in the first place, but fans extrapolated would be in the game. If anything that's what CDPR needed to fix, and did. For the past 3 years they've been really careful about promising things or talking about anything that doesn't already exist in the game.

                              At times I feel like people need to sit back and think about how they react when a company tries to mend their ways. If we permenantly write off a company when they do something wrong, what's the point in that company ever changing? Yes Cyberpunk had a rough launch, but CDPR sat down, worked for 3 years, and turned the game into something that will long be considered one of the best video games of all time.

                                  If those responsible for lying to investors, misleading gamers, mistreating developers, and strongarming reviewers had been replaced, I'd be more trusting. Or maybe if those responsible had truly and publicly owned what they did and changed how they went about developing games rather than attempt to justify their actions and stick to their non-methodology and bad management. As none is the case, I suspect anything and everything CDPR does is nothing more than lip-service.

                                    I'm not sure how to feel about the "Publish to Nexus" button. It strikes me as anticompetitive.

                                          Absolutely. Had it been a conventional market with much more people involved rather than a modding website, this would 100% be considered as a vertical competition violation.

                                              It's only possible because the nexus makes itself competetive with such features.

                                                      It also supports publishing to the Steam Workshop. It's perfectly reasonable imo for them to add special support for publishing to the most popular mod repositories.

I guess for someone how knows how to use redkit this might be a helpfull page. But I was a bit overwelmed by the amount of information on this page. And this guide seems to be mainly about wwise which seems to not really have changed from before the next gen update. My main concern is redkit itself tbh.
