What's up with all the Keanu Reeves hate anyway?

[Angry Nord-Grunge Syndicate]

Don't really pay any attention to all that stuff, so i googled around and can't really find any reason why people are so angry with this guy?

Messaggio originale di Bounce:

look at the state of the game you're playing right now. if you truly care about it, how about you do some search.

Wait. Did Keanu Reeves make that game?

[Silvarsson]

Messaggio originale di Bounce:

he got onboard one year before the original release. they decided to take full advantage of his presence and re write the whole story around him. this caused the director to leave because he prolly was not pleased with that decision. in the end, the game is nothing like what was promised in 2012 and advertised in 2018. this forced crunch on the developpers and caused multiple delays to reshape most of the game in a short amount of time. a lot of content made for a rpg was cut and the game was made into a keanu action adventure looter shooter that's full of bugs due to the poor management of resources. all thats left are the world, characters and its assets.
i think that bad decisions + the lack of transparency, led to lies and ♥♥♥♥ else is happening today.
how would you feel if what most you've been doing for the past 7 years, building ideas and making them a reality got scrapped out of nowhere for a trashy reason?
the original vision is gone, and nothing's going to change that. deal with it?

Exact.

Thing is. it is possible that some change come as they are actually sued.
Knowing they did that change late 2018/early 2019, they would have built that game only on 2 years, which is incredible. But so, they also threw up the window 3 to 6 years of financed developpement.

I suppose there will be trashy consequences.

you believe what you want to believe. you may think an institution's word have more value than mine, what ever. i just look at the ♥♥♥♥ that happened.

I think most people would rather know the truth. Hard to believe someone who provides a bunch of claims, yet has no evidence.

[Bounce AI]

seems like you do not care. look at the marketing and what happened inside the company.

Whatever you think about the game, nothing should be said negatively about Keanu from a personal standpoint. He's probably one of the most humble and caring actors to ever exist and puts his all into every role he takes on. He may not be what many consider the best actor on the planet, but he is probably the most liked and one of the most sought after actors to work with in the industry. The man is all about his fans, and treats people with the utmost respect in every set he's on. His work ethic is impeccable and he puts in the training and the hours and does most of his own stunts as well. There isn't a single person whose worked with him who has a bad thing to say about him.

I would like to personally thank him for his role in the game, because however you feel about the story Keanu is at least a positive for it in my experience and this will open up the doors for more Hollywood actors to consider being in video games in the future.

I, for one, was starting to get sick of Keanu's character after awhile. It was a combination of Silverhand being both irritating and unlikeable combined with Keanu Reeves well-known inability to act or, rather, his inability to act as anyone other than Keanu Reeves. It all combined to really rub me the wrong way. I legitimately got pissed off just seeing him at one point, but that was most mostly because of dissatisfaction with the game up to that moment. Whenever Silverhands character materializes into view, I kinda groan and roll my eyes.

I can't find any source for this.
All i can find by googling is that Sebastian Stępień went to Blizzard.
Nothing about why he moved. That could just be rumours.

I think most people would rather know the truth. Hard to believe someone who provides a bunch of claims, yet has no evidence.

And some people would rather blindly support than think about these things and what happened. Too much evidence lines up to show that Bounce is probably right about this. We would have had an awesome game if they hadnt cut a lot of it for Keanu.

I've heard stuff like this before, usually about conspiracy theories. It's always "do your own research" and "too many coincidences".

I'm not buying it unless you can provide evidence, as opposed to claims, and I doubt I'm alone in this.

[Cythal]

If I can speak for myself. I feel that Johnny is forced upon V's character making V almost like an empty shell. In addition, Jackie was a great companion and I believe they killed him too early to force Johnny into our heads.

I do not hate Keanu in any shape or form. If there is any hate from others, I think it may be related to how the story pans out.

Who hated him again? What ppl hate is the fact that so much money has gone to marketing, instead of developing the game

That will never change, its a non argument... everything, spends assloads on marketing.

no wonder this game ends up like the many trash that've been coming out from AAA industry

[Oparator Stalker]

The haters of this game are basiclly on low performance PC's, and look for more reasons to hate the game, so they attack the next thing in the list. The other side that has hate going on is because Keanu, is not being friendly or cheerful enough, and maybe not hitting on them or wants sex with them. I know it sounds silly, BUT I have seen some of this for being a reason..

I personally do not care, it doesn't break my game, I like his movies, they have him in it, ok. And that is about it. After all, my understanding there is a game out that has Dr.Disrespect in it, and this is a youtuber, who has no meaning to me at all, but I only know this because my friend watches this guy, never the less, he is used in a game too?
So I am really not seeing that big dramatic deal here where the game is being destroyed by all that except haters looking for any reason to hate, no matter how pointless...

I can only say for myself so I was able to play from beginning to end and only minor bugs but i wont say the game doesn't have problems because the “work in my machine” seal of approval dont worth ♥♥♥♥.
My personal problem is that CDPR promises they fail to deliver on this game. And in part is because Johnny's storyline was forced in the game in later stages of the development

[Go0lden_Archer]

Because he is part of Cyberpunk. Hating Cyberpunk is "the thing". /thread

Right, like I said, another reason to hate the game....
