I mean... GoG is DRM free, so you can technically get it for free from alternate distribution sites. Then buy it if you like the game.
ADamnSavage
I need that friend
MeToMeOutLoudButAlsoSilently
I've done this. The joy someone gets out of it.. it just... makes me really happy.
supdalat
If your friend changes his steam to offline mode you both could play at the same time.
Justin102798
You can play it at the same time on steam. All cdpr red games can be. One of you only had to launch the game from the exe in the bin folder.
SenfinaZeit
So send dudes as in like, cyber dudes? Or like irl cause thats definitely a crime.
Gregoros
Steam family account settings. If you are willing to share your password with someone you can play all their games when they are not.

My friend bought me a copy for Christmas, it’s been fun to play and talk to him about it! Enjoy @op!!
KZFDG
You can play it at the same time anyway, the Steam install .exe has no DRM...
papusmuhamus
Your friend is a real life viktor
BojanglesTheFlyingCar
Is the game a bug ridden mess? Yeah. Do the models not render in time if you're moving too fast? Yeah. For an ambitious project it's amazing
BojanglesTheFlyingCar
It's a giant city simulation so I can forgive that triggers don't fire sometimes. Like it tries to do A LOT. And it gets a lot of it
Felderburg
Wait, the first half of this implies you can play things in your steam friends' libraries.
Kiriande
Steam family share. Allows you to play the other person's games when they're not using steam
calebzia
I wish i had friends
Slamtastik
can afford comp that plays cyberpunk?
Kiriande
I have a pc for free that can play it. It's my bfs old one, his new one can run cyberpunk on ultra xD
MetalRearSolidVThePhantomPeen
PSA if you have an Xbox One or PS4 base model, do not buy Cyberpunk 2077. It looks and plays like a half baked PS3 game on both. /1
MetalRearSolidVThePhantomPeen
/2 The One X version looks fine, but is still a buggy mess and runs at sub 25 frames most of the time. Don't make my mistake.
MetalRearSolidVThePhantomPeen
/3 Lesson learned: never pre order, even if its from the "good guys".

If only CDPR wasn’t absolutely awful to their workforce, making them do 16 hour work days and sometimes weekends since June 2019. See tweet:

Dude I do wish I could afford a copy of this game , it looks like so much fun!

You've gotta bang now.. You owe him.

FirstAidPoetry
I’m a bit too much into the reds on my credit card to dare buy it, but at least it’ll be patched up the day I can buy it.
TheBlackKeep
Playing on pc i havent seen many bugs , about 20 hours in , having fun so far
TheFallOfTroyML
While i can play it on pc pretty crash free (1 in 10h playtime) i rather have waited another year. Shame because its a decent enough game
Grimmy32
If only your friend bought it on GoG - could of saved himself 50$ by sharing the account with you.
Royalflush908
Steam copy key can be used on gog, all keys are from free cdpr despises drm so they don't apply it ever.
LoopStricken
*could have
Sikhwitit
Ill have to look into that. I'm all about sharing media and dev's getting full cut. Thanks for the tip!
OrangeFlavours
You already CAN share the account, on steam. All the friend has to do is go offline, and you can both play at the same time.

OrangeFlavours
Uh... did you not see the first part of the chat? they already do it, he says he could play it using their library.

OrangeFlavours
Uh... I said if you didn't see it, and all the above comments were about OP and his friend.
PrincessSnugglebutt
That's fucking rad!
Schmooooo
You can play games in your friend’s library?
Schmooooo
Or you were at your friends?
Kiriande
Steam family share it's called. Me and my bf did it, but cyberpunk doesn't show in my library. Doesn't work with all games :(
Schmooooo
Ah cool, thanks
Kiriande
Basically it allows you to play the other person's games, but only if they are not using steam.
somegoyman
CDPR learned what ea, blizzard, Bethesda, etc have all known. You can sell a buggy mess, call it aaa, and idiots will buy it.
LiterallyAnOpossum
I could probably afford the game, but not the $350-400 upgrade I would need to make it run worth a flip. :(
DustyGazungas
I’ve been playing on my Xbox and haven’t had any issues.
hessay12
I play on ps4. Fine now with today update. Very stable. They did an amazing job with the story, I haven't finished but am engaged
looseasamoose
Where you based
AlexanderNikopol
I play via Geforce Now. 7€ / month and no need for a good pc.
WonderfunkJones
Seriously, try Stadia. It's a free platform. Not perfect, but you're a perfect demographic candidate for it.
WonderfunkJones
My PC can run it just fine but I like the ability to play it anywhere I have an internet connection.

CaptainKipup
Yeah that’s where I’m at. I’ll get the game when I finally bite the bullet and buy a whole new rig.
jj999124
As someone playing it right now. Not a bad option tbh. Youll get it when shit gets fixed and optimized and contents added. And likely-

RogueKitsune
Same... :( I'm playing on a base PS4 (w/ a SSD), and it's decent, but I've had a couple crashes, and can't wait to see it on PC, someday...!

Schweet. I might actually buy a copy then.
BullfrogStormcroak
Honestly, as much as I love DRM free games (and really I believe they should all be), I'm so invested in steam that I refuse to buy a
BullfrogStormcroak
game that isn't redeemed through steam. It's just too fucking convenient.
Malibloo
Just buy the game on GOG and dump a shortcut on your desktop. That should be more than convenient.
BullfrogStormcroak
Except it's not. First off I can't stand shortcuts on my desktop. That's why I use a launcher. Secondly it's far, far less convenient than a
BullfrogStormcroak
launcher that automatically updates all my games when I log on, keeps track of every title I own regardless of if it's installed or not, can
texasredheadguy
Wait, huh
stulfer
Or buy it on steam, id actually rather valve gets a slice since they treat their employees far better than CD proj does
Malibloo
If only they treated their users better too, which they do not. Has everyone forgotten how shitty valve has been for many years as well?
Aciditty
Are you referring to the 8 extra hours of work time equaling a total of 48 hours a week that was voted on. Also they get bonus's on sales.
Aciditty
Or did I miss something?
Dionysus187
I haven't refunded any games in the past either, but the ticket is still 'open' so I hope they don't screw me.
[deleted]
[deleted]
Dionysus187
Well I specifically said I don't want GOG Wallet funds since I'm not likely to ever use the service again. few hours played and days owned
Dionysus187
And like I said their little "can get you GOG funds now, we can reject full refunds for any reason" sounded extremely coercive.
[deleted]
[deleted]
Dionysus187
Meanwhile I'm trying to get a refund and they pulled some mob tactic shit of "We can do GOG funds but not so sure about cash refunds....."
Dionysus187
"Be a real shame if you tried to get a cash refund and it didn't work out. Maybe you should want GOG funds instead?"
Malibloo
First problem is why are you getting a refund in the first place?
Dionysus187
Because it feels like a cyberpunk Deus Ex with Fallout (mediocre) combat and no level of quality story will sway me enough to enjoy it.
enkrypt3d
Gog??
BaleZur
Goog 'ol Games. They started out selling old but loved games. Now they just are awesome all around. https://www.gog.com/game/cyberpunk_2077
InfographicProject
good old games
Royalflush908
Your steam copy is actually a gog key afaik you can access they key on steam and apply it on gog for your gog version.
Steffn
No, it's not.
Royalflush908
Yes it is, gog lets you activate all their first party games that you own on steam on gog galaxy as well.
Muffyns
How
Valahuir
You can link a steam and gog account, some games you have on steam will be automatically recognised into your gog libarary. Not a lot though

IDontKnowWhatToDoAnymoreAndImTired
Holy shit... I had no idea GOG was owned by CDPR. I love GOG.
battery1979
Damnit.... I forgot GoG was CDPR I bought it on steam
MonoclesAndManacles
Luckily they reached the threshold of getting 80% instead of 70% on steam, that'll add up
kdk5239131415
How are you able to share it? I understand the DRM aspect but the sharing is whats is confusing me... the owner of the game may share?
asaguda
Well technically, no, they may not. But no DRM means there's nothing stopping the owner from just sending the installer to someone else.
Muffyns
You can copy the files to a usb stick and the entire game will be there not tied to any log in info or other anti piracy bullshit
Rizz010
Yeah, steam has a “family sharing” system where if you log on to another person’s computer (or share info) they can use your library 1/2
Rizz010
2/2 when they aren’t

Copy that. After hearing that they plan on giving all dev's a bonus regardless of reviews, it made me want to support them even more!
