Cyberpunk 2077

Cyberpunk 2077, here's my 2 cents on the world itself, since taking time to list any other negative in the rest of the game will require more than space allowed. Summary: Night City is basically bereft of any content unless provided in missions that focus on rotating set of rote side activities, and a few random events here and there. They all exist in a bubble and no interaction with the world at large ever takes place. It's more or less set up as amusement park where nothing ever comes to your attention in organic manner. + it's quite large and feature a variety of landscapes - no difference in terms of missions from fixers - no open world activities, such as races outside of missions, no mini-games, no public transportation options aside from fast travel, no spontaneous criminal acts - no aircraft that you can command - no chance of mission spilling out of its zone, so no chase spiraling out of heist, thievery, etc, unless scripted - gangs outside of missions never acknowledge your actions in missions - crowd is limited in terms of their function in the world, repeat same animation and can only either crouch in the same manner or run in response to any threat - police teleports out of nowhere in pursuit, no vehicle involved - no logic behind traffic, with cars just stopping at the slightest obstruction with drivers not reactive to any physical input outside of recycled commentary or horn - some sections of the world horribly optimized - driving is terrible and awkward, motorcycles can't lean much, breaks don't register moment it is triggered - first person view is too low, akin to peering out of tank view port - the walking is set to jogging with no other option - lackluster physics, no breakable walls, lamp posts and other placed items get crushed at slightest disturbance, cars just sink straight down in water, no splash from gun shots, etc. - elevator rides cannot be skipped - night is not dark enough - other numerous showstopping, immersion-breaking bugs

Super nice to look at, intertesting world and characters but not what we thought it would be. Even without the bugs or awkward controls. You can tell that this game was supposed to be so much more, and then someone made the call to just drop the planned content and get it done and out the door in time for the release of the new gen video cards and consols. HUGE MISTAKE. This is a game that really could have been the gold standard for all future RPG's or just games in general and a nice as what we recieved is it does come off as a let down. Yes they are working on bug fixes but for me that is not were the biggest issues with the game are. If only the call made was to push the game a whole year or more.

waste of time and money

I finished elementary school, middle school, and high school, and my first year of college and this game still isn't finished.

It has been more that a year since the game was released. And updates didn't change the game. The world and scenario look good when NPCS and cars aren't bugged. I've decided to start a new playthrough after the latest update was released and the game was the same and on top of that I've experienced bugs that I haven't seen in first playtrough. After one year of updates the game managed to have more bugs than when I played it in release date. If CDPR manages to get their shit together with the 1.5 update I will change this score and review.
