CDPR's goodwill
edit@WikiHannibal: - I think my edit is more suitable here than Cyberpunk 2077 article. The poor messaging of CDPR with regards to refund, the turmoil within the studios and how the staff are challenging the management, and most importantly, the erosion of goodwill, showed that the company managed to piss off both their team, their customers and their investers simultaneously, and this will directly change the company's perception in the coming years (and seems like it may even result in a class-action lawsuit). All of them are more related to the companay than the game itself. The information I added is well-sourced and is certainly not OR (the information is supported by RS like PC Gamer and Polygon, and now we have even more from New York Times and IGN which also disucss the situation). The fate of CDPR is intrinsiclly tied to the launch of Cyberpunk 2077, so both article should have this information, rather than putting them all in Cyberpunk. Meanwhile, stuff like "CD Projekt Red offered to pay refunds of Cyberpunk 2077 out of their own pocket after issues with PS4 and Xbox One consoles" actually belongs to the Cyberpunk article because that is only referring to the physical version of the game.

- Hi, I agree with your reasoning reagrding the importance of the info you added for CDPR, and I did not say it should not be in CD Projekt; I said both article should have it, with CD Projekt using a trimmed version. The sources are RS per se but the sentence "Reports alleged..." should be atrributed directly to Bloomberg; PC Gamer had no additional info regarding the meeting. Bloomberg had two sources who speak about what other two people (one employee, one developer) said. I think there is too much distance between the original speaker and the content of the wikiarticle. Regarding the shift in your edit, "two members" is more precise and more neutral than "some members" (which implies larger numbers). I suppose your "misleading the customers" is an interpretation of "one staff member asked management why it said that Cyberpunk 2077 was complete in January when, according to that employee, it wasn't". I think there is too much OR in that interpretation. The "unrealistic deadlines" come from "several CD Projekt Red staff members, past and present", not necessarily members of the dev team. I tried to come up with an alternative wording you might accept but failed; if we stick to what Bloomberg writes, there is simply not much of encyclopedic content (that I can see) left. For example, if they have spoken publicly or there were more sources, we could attribute and it would be noteworthy; but internal meeting debates can be heated and info from the meeting fits newspapers but it is not encyclopedic; there have been probably a number of debates thoughout the years where emyployees complained. Regarding refunds, "left the responsibility" is a little bit loaded, and "may not successfully" seems like a conjecture (without more context). (This does not mean I like "out of their own pocket"; the refunds can be trimmed to something like "Console players could get refunds from Sony and Microsoft following standard procedures.") The confusion regading CDPR offer is not encyclopedic at present (it can be expanded when there are significant numbers of refunds, for example). WikiHannibal (talk) 10:51, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
- I disagree on what makes "encyclopedic content" as we can document whatever is documented by RS. Members of the dev team include both members past and present and basically anyone who have worked on the game. I certainly don't think just two members grilled the management (and isn't implied by the source either as they are presented more as examples of sharp questions. With the currently development, I think we can wait and see what happens in the next few months and then update the article accordingly. What I wanted to point out though, is that if you think that you can improve my edits, you can just go ahead and rephrase it rather than doing an entire revert, which is not helpful at all.

How "controversial" does something have to be for the "controversy" section?
editCDPR has faced accusations of sexism in the past, in particular for their support for GamerGate and its dismissive attitude in social media for those asking for more gender diversity and non-stereotypical depictions of women. If there are articles from reliable sources describing this, would this be relevant to add to the controversy section? Jaysbro (talk) 13:38, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
