Cyberpunk 2077

I sank almost 100 hours into the game by now and think the game is definitely worth it. I'm writing this as of patch 1.12. Yes, there are some bugs still, keybinds cannot be changed, occasionally bodies float. Well the game is being patched, there are mods that fix stuff some folks don't like. I have no reason to complain. I really enjoyed the main story line which is filled up with some likeable charcters one gets attached to. Side jobs/gig offer some suprisingly good missions and aren't just a side stuff meant to distract. Well worth the time and feel like they hint what might be coming in DLCs, at least some. Overall gameplay is fun, skill progression resembles Elder Scrolls series approach, the more you use a given skill the better you become at it. Graphics and attention to detail is amazing. Game is filled with those little things like "aliens kidnapped my wife and kids, help me... celebrate!", tones of easter eggs that all add to this unique looks and feel. Obviouly some will always complain, well there are mods for you. If your spec can run the game, if you liked Deus Ex games, enjoy spending time on collecting crafting meterials, thinking where the next skill point should go, don't like corporations, just get it.

maybe I got lucky but only had one serious bug that is silly and that one is of the npc stuck in my apartment... not sure how she got there but she is still there after many weeks. wont talk to me or anything but I wonder why!! many of the complaints could be related to not having a top end system. Mine is top spec, running everything max and to be honest I havent had anymore issues than otehr games that I have played and liked in the past. And at max settings the city is busy enough for me.. Yes, driving isnt the best but I probably crashed it many times because I am busy looking at teh beatiful scenery. Without a doubt, this is the best looking game ever. My gamestyle of crit sniper works as I hoped it would. Is the game perfect? Of course not.. I would love to see updates where you can open more doors, more areas accessible etc. Many of the quests were great, some average but overall I really enjoyed the game. I am sure most of you will have magic moments from the game that you will remember....

I do understand that console owners are disappointed by technical state of the game, but I honestly do not get the hate this game is getting here on PC. Sure it does have a lot of visual bugs, but I havent encountered any quest or game breaking ones as of patch 1.2. Currently I have feeling that the game is not worse in that regard than any (for example) Bethesda open world RPG. Yes, the game and some of its mechanics for sure needs some polishing, but it is in no way unfinished. During my playthrough I havent got feeling that it is empty with nothing to do as I see people complaining all over internet. I am now convinced that most of those hates comes from people that expected something that is not possible to make. My personal feeling is that the game shares the strengths and weaknesses with Witcher 3. The overall impression and atmosphere is great. Graphic is amazing, if you got strong enough machine. Voice acting and sound are also really good. Quests are very unique, personal, emotional with superb character building. There is ton of lore and written text all over the Night City. And all of this kept me interested for over 100 hour long gameplay. Combat system, RPG elements, side activities and everything else is serviceable, but tiring and repetitive if you stick around and do all of the open world stuff. But it is the same feeling I had with Witcher 3 and every other open world RPG out there.

I did enjoy the game quite a bit, hence the four stars. Unfortunately the main storyline is short which is very disappointing. I do understand the minority who complained that Witcher 3's story was too long, but Cyberpunk introduces so many complex and great characters that you do not get to spend enough time with them to establish an emotional bond as the story whizzes by. What makes the storyline's length even worse is the theme that V's dying which makes players think you have to rush the main storyline to save the protagonist. Truth be told the entire main story feels rushed and CDPR missed a lot of opportunities to flesh out the world with the three origins, e.g. add more missions to make the players feel they're actually a Nomad/Street Chav/Corp. The world also feels a touch empty after completing the storyline, they should make bars interactive where you can meet with some of the NPC's you've met for a lengthy chit-chat, go to cinema or invite them to a shooting range as otherwise some characters get way too little screen-time. Also please let us cause havoc like in GTA. Last point, I'm really hoping that the DLC's (of which I hope they go full Paradox cause the base game is so goddamn solid) will flesh out some characters and expand existing storylines, got my fingers crossed for a Nomad and Panam expansion as leaving the city was very refreshing.

A lot of the bad reviews on here are from a year ago now, especially the top listed ones. Agreeably, the game was rough at the start and probably deserved those reviews. However, a year has since passed and I don't believe those reviews hold anymore. The game has always been solid in its storytelling, world building, and immersiveness. That much hasn't changed, but in that time bugs have been worked out and it's in a solid state now. I highly recommend anyone buy this game now, it's very good, graphics are ridiculous, and the atmosphere is amazing. Don't worry about those other reviews, it's overcome its shortfalls and is a wonderful game to play.
