    I miss the old pro bundles where we got only one bundle with fitting props.

    Ok.THIS bundle is tempting. I really like the car. The flat is pretty nice too. I know I'm in the minority on this, but I like the female products in the bundle.

    Tavia is a nice character and her clothing set is pretty nice too.

    For those of you who only want ONE set, Juan Carlos comes in this set too.

    Daz isn't as clever as they think. They basically took 1 bundle & split it in two. The price is not terribly good. Even with the discounts, plus my loyalty discounts it is still expensive. You do save a little more if you buy 3 stack up products.

    You also get the HD figure with either bundle

    Still, the 2nd bundle is better than the first, for me at least.

    I almost wish I could a la carte between the two bundles

    Skip. Cannot accept these pricings.

    Same. This is ridiculous. Even more expensive. No banner for owners of bundles. Not even a discount for buying both.

    At least today there's a cheap debut item to activate the tutorial for 1$ promotion. I'm happy now, no way I'm touching the bundles.

  • arks0ngarks0ng Posts: 273

    So I guess we just don't need any hair now... Also was super hoping that $1 tutorial code would work again today, but alas no. Still, I appreciate that promotion very much. Just a shame it's somewhat obscured by... whatever all this is

    Definitely the better bundle for me. Love the car and the apartment. Price is still unappealing, so I'll wait for a better deal.

    Only two parts I could really use today, one part I would really like, and three parts I "wouldn't mind but could do without" out of ten. Compared to the seven out of nine parts that I really liked yesterday. So the Apartment, Gadgets and Tavia go into the basket today, and I'm happy I got yesterdays' bundle. Wishlisted the "wouldn't mind" pieces, if they ever hit fastgrab, I could still grab them and end up cheaper in total than just this bundle costs today after all discounts (including the stack-up one, which costs some additional money) applied.

    Hard pass on both bundles.

    Not good offers at all, combined with no interest in the theme. The latter is a purely a question of my personal preferences, though.

    FYI - The 20% Bundle Discount for buying 3 ‘Cyber Sidekick Stack-Up’ Items works on the new Cyber Dystopia Bundle too if you bought the Cyber Punk bundle with the same promo yesterday.  Also received an additional 20% for owning the Cyber Punk bundle purchased yesterday.

    Cyber   Promo     3+   Cyber     Total
    Dystopia   Price Loyalty   Sidekick   Punk     Discounts
    165.95 51% 81.32 30% 56.92 20% 45.54 20% 36.43   78%

    Huh. Your prices end up a lot different than mine, even with the same loyalty percentage and 3+ sidekicks...

    Same. These should have been in the $28 range with stacked discounts for bundle loyalty + both bundles + whatever extra they want to sell us. 
    HD freebie add-ons are never going to be a selling point for me. 

    I love bundles and tend to pick them up when they come out, but I couldn't justify the two Topsy bundles and I can't justify these ones either. 
    I bought the few Topsy items I really wanted with the horror sale (new item + 10 horror items at a discount x 4), but even though there is a bunch of stuff I like in these bundles, especially the second one, the price is....pricy. 
    They got it right with Drutherson (and I picked up both bundles right away!), no idea why they've gotten it so wrong with these two.

    Good call on the 3 sidekick stack up. I assumed it was a one off (used it yesterday).

    I wasn't going to go with the bundle but get some pieces. I got same price you show with discounts, then down to $32 with one of my PC+ coupons. (I got some other things too so entire $6 didn't apply).

    I will never buy a new bundle again with this prices and horrible release promotions. sad

    Any ideas where to find the gun holster shown in the promo images of the cyber weapons package (https://www.daz3d.com/cyberpunk-weapons)?
    Tried to find it in the store without any luck.

    It's the Bounty Huntsman outfit: https://www.daz3d.com/bounty-huntsman-outfit-for-genesis-8-males

    My guess is on the textures for the Huntsman outfit rather than the Huntress, though, specifically the ones shown with the white top and blue trousers: https://www.daz3d.com/bounty-huntsman-outfit-textures

    Again, I really like the character, and the apartment and car are really nice, but after having just dropped $60 on the actual game, it's a tough pill to take. So I think he'll just have to stay in my wishlist (along with the apartment and car) for now. If the bundle was in the $30 range, then I'd be way more tempted.

    With all the great menswear in games, why didn't/doesn't Daz take inspiration from them and give us some bona fide cyberpunk male clothing?

  • Cora ReginaCora Regina Posts: 731

    I wish they would. They've given us at least half of the MCU Avengers, after all, so it's not like they're afraid of taking on heavily inspired material.

    There's 2077 but I'd happily buy a bunch of outfits based on ones from Mirror's Edge Catalyst or something. Not just the stuff the lowest of the low castes wear, either, I'd love some super posh outfits for the cyberpunk elite as well.

    I've got at least two outfits that are basically identical to the one in this bundle, and neither of them were marketed as cyberpunk. Pretty sure they were sold as summer tanks and shorts.

    I will stop buying bundles at that price and rather focus on individual items I like. An average Pro bundle had 11 items, base price 134.95 without discounts. The last bundles had less content and were way more expensive. With the lower bundle price, plus various discounts, I did buy bundles even though I only had use for a subset of its contents. Now, I am better off just focussing on the things I want. Apart from that, almost all new bundles had issues (at least since Freja 8) with one or more of its items.

    I do like today's bundle, but the price asked is way above my pain threshold.

    These cyberpunk bundles just ain't my schtick so I have no interest but the prices are so darned ridiculous for those who could use them. As I think about it, the products might allow my commercial portfolio to expand into new genres so I'm putting them into my wishlist. Poor sellers tend to get heavy discounts down the road. Fingers crossed. I think the PAs did a good job here but may have miscalculated their marketing. Subjective opinion on my part, I could be wrong.

    I'm disappointed in the clothing, a shapeless dforce workout outfit is somehow cyberpunk?  Part of me wonders if no longer making original style bundles is simply to avoid making men's outfits. Clothing options for men has gotten far worse with the new style bundles.

    Cyberpunk is my thing & I'm still leaving this bundle alone.

    The marketing & timing for this is good, with Cyberpunk 2077 dropping today.

    The character of Juan Carlos is really good. The best thing in both bundles. The rest of it feels like leftovers.

    The PA did quality work, but we basically have better versions of everything else. I don't know why more care wasn't put into creating something a little more unique.

    The price also slows my buying of this. I could justify buying both bundles ( which is really just One bundle split into Two parts) if the price was about $50. Once I look through my Product Library, I realise I already have a scifi bike, scifi flat, gadgets, scifi alley that I have yet to download, much less use.

    I try to support Cyberpunk so vendors keep making it, but I have spent TOO much these past three months.

    Well to be fair, clothing & shoe options for men in the real world aren't that great.

    I went looking for shoes. There were 2 aisles for men & a dozen for women.

    After CDPR has sold supposedly 8 million copies of CyberPunk 2077 prior to launch at $60+ a pop, I'd say Daz has their marketing spot on.  That's not to say the prices are good on these bundles...but the marketing is right there.

    This isn't the real world. Presumably users who buy characters in the cyberpunk theme for guys want to give him cyberpunk outfits and implants. But looks like the gynocentric content is now filling up the male bundles as well. No cheers for me. Male characters got a small enough piece of pie to begin wtih, now, their bundles are getting filled with items from Vicky's closet.

    I'm not interested in a male character bundle that contains items for a different, female character.

    Now that is the strange thing. You say you received an additional discount on todays bundle for buying yesterdays one, right? If so, that should be also offerend once one has both bundles in the cart today from my perspective.
