Gaming reviews are pillared upon a double standard. If this game was released by a studio out of vogue right now, say 2K or Blizzard, they'd be trashing it and it would be in the bargain bin by the end of January, no "pulled from the store until fixed" shit. You'd be hard pressed to find a single reviewer willing to take the studio's side.
But this is CDPR, the internet's dream developer. User reviews of Witcher 3 were written like erotic fanfiction. They could release driveway gravel as a breakfast cereal and some soy-faced dipshit would eat it on youtube, tell the world it tasted like fairy pussy, and then claim his ambulance trip to the hospital later that day was for "unrelated reasons".
