Of course it's all lies according to some, but I can't imagine the developers being happy with management

Many industry observers have wondered why Cyberpunk 2077, which was first announced in 2012 and was delayed three times in 2020, still appears to be unfinished. Several current and former staff who worked on Cyberpunk 2077 have all said the same thing: The game’s deadlines, set by the board of directors, were always unrealistic. It was clear to many of the developers that they needed more time.

I wonder how this will play out. There's nothing holding the really talented people back from switching to a different studio. It happened after TW3, those with options will seek a better work environment. It's a shame, driving both your customers and talent away for short term gain. Very short term in this case.
