Cyberpunk 2077

Cyberpunk is really something special to me. As a child I was dreaming about walking in the big futuristic city. All the lights and many people, corporations and risk of being zeroed at any place and all this in one city. I am sure that this is what i wanted to see. After 350 hours in Night City i can deffinetly say that my dream is fullfiled. To be honest game have some bugs and this kind of stuff but I didnt care. I was so excited when i started the game on 10.12.20, It was the feeling that no other game gave me. Now after completing game several times I would love to go back in time and start it again because it was so great. The story is deffinetly for mature people. Maybe you dont have much of a choice in this game and thats a pitty but cmon, some scenes in there are so intense and with soundtracks they gave and are giving me goosebumbs everytime. To sum up, Cyberpunk 2077 is not perfect, just like my girlfriend but I still love it.

Pros: * Graphics/Design * Characters (feels immersive and bonding) * Voice acting * Music * Cyberware/Cyberspace/Techie/Netrunner/Futuristic stuffs Neutral: * Combat * Driving * Map and minimap * Story (spoiler alert! personal thoughts: kinda feel like a semi-linear story instead of an open world concept; also understand the lore of Cyberpunk in general is a sad dystopian world but somehow the fact that our main character - irregardless of the choices we made, V will die in 6 months time seems kinda "meh" ..or perhaps not sure whether V is facing schizophrenia? hope in the future there will expansions or dlc's :shrug:but focusing on V's post Nocturne op55n1 quest and the decision V made) Cons: * Glitches (mostly graphic glitches - seldom it is so annoying suddenly seeing flying NPC's or vehicles, NPC's spawning out of nowhere, etc) * A.I (NPC's) * City is huge but seems lifeless with little interaction and customization (V's apartment, vehicles) * U.I (rather a bit inconvenient; e.g inventory, key binding, etc)

Despite the rough this was one of my favourite experiences in quite some time. Yes, we've all seen the bug compilations and crowbcat video, but to me the behind the scenes issues didn't hamper what was delivered. And i got what i wanted from this game. I was expecting witcher 3 wih guns and i got witcher 3 with guns. I wanted a game that finally put the writing and the worldbuilding front and center and Cyberpunk 2077 delivered in a way that i really wasn't expecting. While the lifepaths are a borderline joke and there aren't major story branches outside of the endings, but the care put into making Night City believable is astounding, especially considering the bulk of the plot was made in like 2 years. And speaking of the endings man oh man, act 3 might be rushed, but the endings are amazing and thought provoking. Some of the sidequests are so high in quality i even forgot they weren't main quests. The narrative can be extremely subtle and the characters are very realistic in how they behave. The story in this game is like a fine wine, you have to respect it and savor it and will probably age marvelously. The tl;dr: if you want a story focused game that can be subtle and internally consistent and the idea of playing an open world deus ex sounds enticing to you then you might enjoy the game despite all the media buzz.

Keep in mind I played on PC with RTX 2080. PROS: -awesome graphics, awesome music, awesome character animations, Keanu Reeves (!); -the plot is awesome, it's a concoction of all famous cyberpunk concepts wrapped in one beautiful game; -the main NPCs are so well done, you wanna dive into their backstories, some gave me chills. well done! -some bugs are SO WOW i put it as a pro point. I loved when V could just randomly fly away and see the whole map - you just cannot do it on purpose, this is some divine work! :D CONS: -AI, enemies sometimes freeze and are not attacking (I played on hard mode) and don't provide much of a challenge (after level 40 you become quite OP); -when you have to steal cars, you'd would expect a crazy pursuit with tons of adrenaline and gunfights; -(SPOILER) when you finish the game as a legend of Afterlife, I'd expect to have at least some of my carefully picked gear in the new apartment, not some ugly clothes and common weapons - V suppose to be a legend here! :( -random deaths (I call them "V's heartattacks") - just walking on the street and poof, flatlined xD I anticipate the DLC to be awesome! Can't wait!

I spent around 160h to finish the game. And I like it a lot, the best RPG game since Witcher. Why? Because of the main story, gigs and game characters, beautiful Night City. There is a very good cyberpunk atmosphere with different national tone in a different city blocks. I never used fast travel in game and drive through the city on car to catch NCPD events along the path to quest points. Of course there is a lot of glitches but nothing serious, just minor bugs. Of course there is a lot of space for improvements and for additional content. There is a lack of implants, weapon modifications. I hope they will keep to work on this game, I will definitely play again if they release addon and add additional content.
