Good story, but a very shallow world...

After about 50+ hours game time, it felt like the game is lacking in something, something that makes the world feel...more alive(bugs as entertaiment dont count..). There are many issue with the game that are fixable, but there r some issue that cant(hopefully just for now)with its main issues, The world of this game. After completing the main campaige (completed all side character storyline), everthing just feel blend. theres nothing that makes me wanna return to play this game as a relaxing walkthrough (i somethimes just enter a game even when i played 100% just to take me out of the real world just for a moment). I can maybe say that this game did not take the genre "RPG" and "CyberPunk" to its full extent or in another terms...coorperate the 2 genre. Instead its more like "Cyberpunk, the open world linear story game". Theres tons of potential mechanics that felt left out in the game and genre (disguise as one of the enemies with thier clothes,have a face change shop that let u change ur look so enemies cant recognise you as u play the side mission or meeting familiar faces (like how pepe Najarro's wife said she changed her looks or lizzy wizzy taking off the bottom half of her face in the old trailer), customizable house/vehicle to suit each occasion (which i heard been cut out), and a realtime events like riots and what not (havn't encounter one)). But instead we direct copy and paste of the cyberpunk from tabletop to game with little to no extra elements to increase the mechanical and storytelling depth of the game. or as a video game in general. It maybe be too much to ask at this point or it maybe in general but to me its a crucial aspect thats makes the game more lively

Cool cyberpunk world - good foundation.

-> First: it is clear there was a lot of pressure to release the game maybe too early. Which will bring a lot of bad first judgment. Polishing is lacking and I'm pretty confident RedProjekt will polish it in the coming time; as they did with all the previous games to a very generous and professional level of commitment. The PC performance is a lot better than I was expecting. Glitch and weird physical event can happen, nothing a good patch work can not resolve. I was surprised to realize that it is entirely a first person game, I was somehow expecting a third view like in the Witcher. But OK, I adapted myself to it. It's just far less important to work on the look of your character since you don't really get to see it in action. The sound of the cars are based on fuel-engine which to me sound really weird in a cyberpunk age of clearly electric retro-looked vehicule. Something sounding less fuel-based would have fit better to my opinion. Otherwise, after around 20h in game, the story unfold in an interesting way. Design and visual style is very interesting. It takes a while to get use to the environment and the many options in it. The impossibility to change some basic look after initial choice (like hairdressing, tattoos and nail color...) is an odd design choice. I do look forward the evolution and patching of the game with great interest. Global impression is very good.

A great game but...

It's a great game, I love it, however it needs to be polished. It has many bugs that can affect the gameplay

Awesome !

10 days straight couldnt stop playing. Perfomance is fine idk what ppl complaining about ... ran pretty well on my ryzen3700x and 1660 super mid-high settings. World is spectacular , story is awesome. Combat can be pretty fun once you start exploring different builds. Lots of extra content.

It'll be a 5 star game in a few months

I'm thankful I play this on a PC. I' m ~50 hours in and despite a few minor bugs (I haven't had any game breaking ones so far), this is a very solid game. I wish there were more RPG elements though. It felt as if my life as a Nomad didn't change much besides a few dialogue options here and there. Pros: main missions, some side missions, cyber-psycho boss fights, character building, night city ambiance, weapon variety & combat styles Cons: missing RPG elements, bugs, NPCs seem lifeless at times, can't actually buy and view braindances (even though they talk about it all the time in the game) If you're eager to jump in, this is worth a buy, but I'd recommend waiting for a few months. I can't wait for the modding community to hopefully jump in and improve this game. I've already added in some reshades and it looks WAY better.
