TLDR: beware before buying, no surround sound on home cinema setup with optical out, even after two years and countless patches. Long text: I was somewhat hyped for Cyberpunk since I'm a huge fan of the Witcher series, so you can guess my disappointment when the state of the original release got known publicly. So I decided to wait. After two years, I figured by now it should be a stable, enjoyable experience and got the game during the black friday sale. Starting up, it looked promising, nice graphics, good performance, great immersive surround sou... wait, why is the surround sound all messed up? Why are voices and other directed sound only routet to the front speakers, even when they are very clearly behind my player character? Are you freaking kidding me? Cyberpunk is the only game of over 400 games in my library that does not work properly with my setup (external sound card with optical output to AV receiver), regardless of configuration. CDPR support is not answering, the internet is full of this problem, there is a thread in the official support forum where people are describing the exact same problem, but no solution. After two years. Every (!) single other game works witout flaw. I got a refund and I know it is overreacting, but CDPR lost all credibility with me since they don't seem to apropriately care about the technical side of the game.
