Cyberpunk 2077

...and you see the game for what it is. An unfinished action/adventure game with no RPG, no open world. You're just there for the ride. I admit, they did a great job with Keanu, but that alone doesn't support the game. The story is lacking any depth. It seems to go somewhere for a moment, but then fizzles into nothing, no real hard or meaningful choices. The protagonist wasn't likable in the beginning. No fighting for influence between the gangs and corps. Character development was a montage. There are very obvious shortcuts and I question if the PC version was ever playtested. From the non-moving (Jesus Christ Pose) NPCs, sound glitches, clipping, spawning errors, despawning errors, missing mission triggers, multiple calls at once bug, enemies and items flaoting in mid air, texture pop-in and out, the very screwed up economy and balance, stealth just not a viable strategy because NPCs can see through solid matter and hitboxes. Oh my, the hitboxes in someplaces are a nightmare. Also protip, if you are on PC use a controller for driving. It is utter garbage on a keyboard and you'll have a bad time. I really wanted to like this game to scratch that Deus Ex itch, however It has no more depth than an assasins creed or watchdogs game. Both of those had less janky controls and glitches. And at least Watchdogs had beter traffic and the city felt more alive. It's not all bad. It's gorgeous. Some of the references and easter eggs are hilarious. Some areas, the attention to detail is awesome. Some scenes are harrowing as well. It's just a shame it is always some and not most. I'd love to say I'd change my review later on, however, it's unlikely I'll invest the time to play again. They blew it.

My game doesn't work past the character creator, it always crashes. Not even mad, just disappointed.

Very anticipated game, preordered immediatly. Feels average, mediocre on everything. Design and art direction stands out. Gunplay and combat system are "mediocre" nothing revolutionary. I'll be waiting for quality improvements, new features, dlcs, official mod support in future updates. I'm a little disappointed, didn't meet the expectations i had, after all the delays and hype.

7 years in development but: - double tap to dodge without posibility of remap. - double tap to put your weapond away, single tap to swap - police spawn when not looking, right behind you - visual glitches - broken AI - uninteresting gameplay - nothing groundbraking On the other hand: - visual stunning - superb story Overall, good game with forgetable mechanics. It is worth your time after 1 year of it's launch. It simply needs, you guessed it... more time!

My review overall: Graphics 4/5 star: (V and AI look great, very good job here) (Map settings look fantastic, nothing out there that comes close to the visuals) Sound 3/5 Star: (Char and AI voices are very well done) (Atmosphere sounds need some work, for example in GTA you can hear the odd super car in background) (Gun sounds are very simple and could do with some variation) Gameplay 2/5 Star: (Main story and side gigs are done very well) Thats about it for the gameplay, nothing much else to do, was highly dissapointed. All the below are my gripes with why i gave this a 3/5, and i hope im wrong but my guess is the below will be fixed with DLC (Hopefuly free) but my suspicions are that these features were pulled and will be re-implemented as DLC (very poor way of adding features, quite akin to how EA does stuff these days) The main story line is great and the additional Gig's add to the experience but.... I would like to do the following (I wish Roman would call me a few times): Interact with the city (Indoor activites like bowling, casino, pool, darts anything really) Outdoors people must still excersise in some way like golf or some other outdoor sports. Theres nothing in the way of or point in exploring the city, theres no random racing encounters (all tied to a side gig) no meet me at the bar for a drink and some hoes. No meet at casino or arcade, just nothing. Theres many other issues with this game but the biggest is the emptiness felt while playing.
