Despite all that grit and grime and taboo, there's one oddity that has stood out to players of "Cyberpunk 2077" enough that <a href="https://twitter.com/usebomswisely/status/1338001959945531392">it's become a meme</a>: For some reason, there are dildos everywhere.Not in advertisements or in Night City's sex shops, but behind staircases and in greasy garages - everywhere. What cheese wheels were to "Skyrim," dildos are to "Cyberpunk 2077." It turns out, the explanation for their ubiquity is simple: It's a bug.Dildos, like playing cards and other such "junk" items in "Cyberpunk 2077," can be picked up and sold in Night City. Rather than the game's developers placing each junk item into the world individually, those items - including dildos - are dispersed randomly in predetermined locations for players to loot as they play through the game."We were still tweaking those settings," a representative from the game's developer, <keyword id="2847945" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="CD-Projekt-RED">CD Projekt Red</keyword>, told Business Insider. "So especially during the early reviews, the amount of dildos in the game world was pretty high."It's one of the various bugs that <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/cyberpunk-2077-refunds-ps4-xbox-one-bugs-cd-projekt-red-2020-12">the developer plans on addressing in the coming weeks</a>. Currently, they can be found in a surprising variety of places where you wouldn't expect to find sex toys.On my very first mission in "Cyberpunk 2077," while creeping around in a dirty garage, I found a dildo. Every mission since, I've found at least one if not several. I've found them on apartment building terraces and hidden behind boxes, in corporate offices and science labs, clearly intended for discovery by players looking for secrets.The experience has been, to put it mildly, bizarre."We wanted Night City to be pretty open sexually," the representative said, "where something by today's standards might be taboo or kinky is very normal and commonplace by 2077 standards."While the game's version of the future intends to portray a society with different views of sexuality than the current world, littering that world with sex toys doesn't serve to back that up. In my experience, it's downright distracting (though, admittedly, hilarious more often than not).To that end, <keyword id="2847944" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="CD-Projekt">CD Projekt</keyword> intends to adjust the number of sex toys strew throughout Night City with an update."We're going to adjust them so that the dildos don't appear too out of place/context and distracting," the company rep said, "and more where they should be by design."Got a tip?

Some people have reported outright crashes and other technical issues, with players on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One faring the worst.<blockquote class="twitter-tweet blockquote" data-lang="en" data-cards="" data-conversation="">—CyberManLives (@Ggdograa) <a href="https://twitter.com/mims/statuses/1338228956193980417?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 13, 2020</a></blockquote>The issues are bad enough that CD Projekt was forced to <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/cyberpunk-2077-refunds-ps4-xbox-one-bugs-cd-projekt-red-2020-12">offer an open-ended universal refund</a> alongside a lengthy apology."We would like to start my apologizing to you for not showing the game on base last-gen consoles before it premiered and, in consequence, not allowing you to make a more informed decision about your purchase," the company said in a statement <a href="https://twitter.com/CyberpunkGame/status/1338390123373801472/photo/1">posted to social media</a>. "We should have paid more attention to making it play better on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One."The game began development at least eight years ago, before the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One launched. It's the first new game from the Polish studio behind the highly acclaimed "Witcher" series since "The Witcher 3" launched in 2015. As such, "Cyberpunk 2077" is the most anticipated game of the year - if not one the most anticipated games in several years.Despite taking a hit to its stock value, CD Projekt said that the new game was already profitable ahead of launch thanks to massive pre-order sales: Before "Cyberpunk 2077" launched last week, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/cyberpunk-2077-tops-steam-and-twitch-charts-at-launch-2020-12">it had already sold over 8 million copies</a>. At a minimum of $60 apiece, that's just shy of $500 million in sales before anyone could even play the game.And in the time since, it continues to dominate attention on Twitch: The game had over 1 million concurrent viewers at one point last week, and still commands hundreds of thousands of viewers as of Monday afternoon.Similarly, on the world's largest PC <keyword id="6357332" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="Gaming">gaming</keyword> platform, Steam, "Cyberpunk 2077" is the first single-player game to take the number one spot <a href="https://store.steampowered.com/stats/">on the charts</a> in years.
