Cyberpunk 2077

Pros: - Good story and believable characters. - Great voice acting. - Looks incredible. Cons: - runs poorly even in a decent hardware (RTX-2080 Super, i7-7700, 1440p monitor. Dips below 60 fps on Mid with DLSS enabled with latest graphic driver!!!!). - very buggy takes away from the immersion. - Did not lived up to the hype. - Shallow RPG elements. (boring skill trees, looting ...) - No NPC interaction making the game feel empty. - No character customization only at the start.

Let's start by saying, i'm a massive witcher fan (books, games and netflix serie), and have alot of hours clocked in the witcher 3 ( witcher 2 aswell, witcher 1 not that many). So when i heard that cdprojectred next game would be cyberpunk 2077 i was hyped. Said to myself, man these people made the witcher 3 and the story is amazing, the side quests were amazing, a beautifull game, great atmosphere and it's a game with massive replayability. TLDR: i was wrong. At release the game was almost unplayable, frequent crashes, an obsceen amount of bugs, performance issues, and then some. This game wasn't finished for any of the platforms it released on (not even going to go into the console version of the game) and cdprojectred knew it. Their promise of releasing when ready was a lie and that is asking for the critical axe if you ask me. You can't immerse yourself in a game, where your character does a T-pose in every car ride and shoots himself above it aswell. Dying from nothing is a commen occurrence, or suddenly getting launched to another planet aswell. And the story? don't get me started on it, it's not bad but it isn't good either. Choices don't matter at all, and with that i mean as an impact on the ending and sometimes even the quest itself. Reactions of a group of people that just glorified you in a mission you just did, keep cursing you out or atleast mention that you are trash when you get back into the open world, this is unimersive to me. Also the main story is way to short for my liking and side quests lack good story. Again probally something i got used to from the witcher 3 side quests being really wel written. I'm sorry if this seems a bit ranty but then again it's the truth. I finished the game now with the streetkid origin and i can say that i probally never do another playthrough of cyberpunk again. It just isn't interesting enough to keep playing.

I will not discuss the desolate technical state, because this is nothing new, because it can be fixed. What cannot be fixed though is the whole game. I did not expect this. I thought Cyberpunk 2077 would be outright groundbreaking next-gen cyberpunk game true to every sense of the gerne. We were all waiting for a game to finally define cyberpunk once and for all. Honestly. A cyberpunk game without cyberspace? All there is to cybernetics are imaginary modules which enhance imaginary numbers? Hacking with a push of a button? No custom attack vectors? No bootleg electronics? No custom cybernetics? So, there is no cyber in this game, and there is no punk? Cyberpunk 2077 is just an adaptation of the shallow genre that was sucked dry in the 80s, corpo wars and stupid violence. The city looks great though, great voice acting, the story is quite cyberpunk, but nothing new. If you liked GTA and Saints Row 4, this is a game for you. If you are a true fan of cyberpunk, brace yourself for disappointment, because this cannot be fixed.

So, many bugs!, game is not ready for sale!, is not finished yet, It may be a great game, but it still needs a lot work, sad CD Project RED!, Very sad, management office should be changed!!...

1.- BUGS, you can read and watch videos about them evrywhere, I won't repeat what others have said. 2.- This is not a RPG is a bad copy of a GTA game and even a GTA game that is from another genre have more roleplay than CP2077 3.- The main story is linear, there are some bifurcations but they don't mean a lot in the end. (and during the journey itself). Take for example Fallout 4, it is a linear game too, but your choices matter a bit more. 4.- The world is big and small at the same time. I mean yeah the city is big, but there is nothing to do beside some random missions. The npc are void puppets, There are no mini events/games. And there are no persistent consecuences on what you do to the wolrd. Once you have see how a couple of streets are you have seem them all. (There is a rummor about a pet, but i have failed to find it) 5.- You cannot roleplay on your own. and that is because of point 4, but also because of the issue involving that at some point you face a BIG problem and lollygagging around feels so out of place, that you feel forced to go to the final of the game. 6.- There are few lovable /dislikable characters, and the interactions with them feel shallow, fixers call you from nowhere to give jobs without knowing you, romace is about doing some missions and done, etc. 7.- Keanu Revees deserved a better game, I mean he is one of the few things good about the game.
