Undercooked gem
To start off, the launch of the game was plain and simple a complete and utter disaster. CDPR should have just bit the bullet and delayed the game, ax last gen versions and focus on making it the game they wanted it to be without the restrictions imposed by at the time already ancient hardware. But alas the launch happened the way it did and we all remember the anger, memes and disappointment. I was one of the people that cancelled their preorder after the final delay from Oct 2020 to Dec 2020, there was something brewing and I wasn't going to waste money on it... Two years later, buying the game at half price with all the patches, reworks and additions it's a damn good game that still falls very much short of the vision originally presented. But the core of an amazing game is there with fun combat, open world that actually is not tedious to traverse and explore, story that takes twists and turns towards several endings that each have place in the narrative and make sense and not to forget a very colourful cast of characters that had me gripped well past the credits roll. At the time of release I would have not even probably bothered to play the game past act 1, most likely wouldn't have been able to given the state in which the game's been released. But now two years later with all the work done on the game to give to the players what they wanted in the first place and more in the future with expansion and further patches and reworks, it's a game I'd recommend. Let Cyberpunk 2077 just be another reminder that preordering videogames is kinda dumb and that developers need to get at least 99.5% of the game right on release because what's the point of releasing a game if the development has not finished and all you'll get from the community is ridicule and anger from paying customers.
