Amazing game with lots of minor issues
Cyberpunk 2077 is overall very impressive and does set the standard for new games as it does feel like a true next-gen game in a way. But in it's current state and first impressions from day one I cannot give it 5 stars. With fixes and some reworks and maybe mods this game will be a true masterpiece but we'll have to wait for that. Things CDPR did really well: - Characters and voice acting - City design and all the attention to details - Quests and sidegigs - Music - Beautiful graphics (after fixes) - Gunplay and weaponry Mixed feelings: - Some questionable keyboard controls like from a console port game - Melee combat - Linear dialogues with little choice and backstory not being impactful enough - I thought cyberware as luxury items would add more to looks and customization and not just stats - Perks for the most part are just situational percentile stat bonuses; hoped for more - Bullet sponge enemies and bullet sponge skulls they have; it's understandable to some degree but doesn't help immersion - Stealth is rather bad in its current state - Selling junk one by one is so slow Things CDPR did poorly but most of these are fixable: - AI pathing, clipping, behaviour, glitches in movement - Police appears behind you from nowhere and one/two-shots you; I know its dark sci-fi setting but come on. Make it like it is in GTA at least. - Equipment balancing and scaling - similar flaws as in Witcher 3 - it just feels like lazy design to have gear locked just by levels and quickly becoming obsolete especially when you find cool looking unique armor - Difficulty setting feels poorly balanced - played on hard - having all the "up-to date" armor and 200 armor skin cyberware and enemies/police (no red skull indicator) after Act 1 deal exactly 195 damage and two-shot me. Is it a formula based on level diffrence or what? Not a fan of that. I can't hide Im quite dissapointed like many others, Amazing game with so many minor issues adding up and affecting immersion.
