What about those screenshots look unrealistic?

High end versions, sure, but "whoa definitely not current gen"? Did y'all play Mankind Divided?

EDIT: clearly when I brought up Mankind Divided I was referring to washed out outdoor daytime shots to compare to the interior neon lit photos in the OP

C2077 looks way better than this.

Mm, why doesn't developer just show real ingame footage. Is it so hard?
I love the idea of this game, but i'm not convinced yet, I want to see dark punk ingame footage.
The game is far off and if they show something that ends up getting "downgraded" when they get closer to release people will throw a fit

This happened with Witcher 3 apparently

This way they dripfeed people and behind closed doors demos get them unreasonably hyped, then they'll show them when they show them

Mankind Divided's hub and city feels super restrictive. The frequency of loading screens were off putting as well.

How the hell the base Xbox or PS4 will run this? I know these are PC screenshots but this looks like a next-gen game. Maybe TLOU 2 looks as good, but that isn't an open world game.
By looking super muddy at 25 fps. Im assuming those shots are supersampled from a 1080ti pc build. The ps4pro and xbox one x build will probably look great though.

Looks neat man. For all I care though this could have Witcher 1 graphics and I'd still play it as long as the gameplay hook is there with great storytelling.

They're gonna pull a GTA and stagnate this across both gens for maximum bucks and I don't blame them. Looks incredible.

The screenshots look fantastic, but they don't seem too far off the realm of possibility for current gen consoles (especially the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X). It'll most likely end up being a cross gen game anyways. Cyberpunk 2077 will most likely be referenced as a "next-gen" title, not for it's graphics (don't get me wrong, they do look great), but moreso for it's lively/NPC filled open world.

Outside of the IQ, which... I mean these are press shots, it looks achievable on current gen. It has some really aggressive DOF but this doesn't look impossible on an X or Pro. I worry most about the frame rate based on what we've heard about the game.

The question I have is what does cross-gen mean next generation? If Microsoft continues their backwards compatibility push shouldn't you just be able to buy it on Xbox One and then have a patch be issued to have it make use of the extra headroom on the next Xbox? Buying the game all over again seems like a sucker move to me.
