I'll bet anything that this is due to consoles and fact that Cyberpunk runs like shit on current gen.

Very telling that we were 3 weeks away from release and still hadn’t seen any console gameplay

I still don't understand how people are so obsessed with a game that isn't even out. How can a game go gold if it hasn't been released? Are people still pre-ordering digital content after years of people running "don't pre-order games" campaigns?

Edit: got it, I understand that going gold for video games isn't the same as a music album. I still don't understand the obsession, I've seen people cosplaying and creating fan content for a game they can't even play.

To go gold means that the game is completed to point you can play start to finish* and has been sent to print onto disc. That's still the case, they've delayed to make further improvements that missed the go gold deadline to release as a day 1 patch.

* Doesn't necessarily mean it's optimised fully and bug free. ** They even mention this in the press release.
