Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty

Base game was amazing, but I didn't like this at all. Good: - Songbird is kind of cute Bad: - Marketed as a "detective story", but there's tons of over-the-top forced combat. Way more than the base game. - The new Dogtown area is mostly rubble and junk, and doesn't have the cool and varied futuristic designs of the base city - I really strongly dislike the new characters - they have a very Call of Duty "military fantasy" vibe - Story makes no sense to me - More bugs than the base game on release - at some point in my play-through the police stopped responding to anything I did, including shooting them. While the open world stuff was never great originally, this ruined the game for me Everything else that they have changed is already in patch 2.0, so there's no reason to get this.

I 100% enjoyed Cyberpunk and the extension as well. The new world adds to the general dystopia feel and I think that dogtown actually is more the vibe I expected from Cyberpunk in General. I also think that people dislike this game mainly for "political" reasons.

After 500+ hours playing cyberpunk, the DLC feels completely different, such as, the "new way" to approach some gigs, and really love it, completely fresh. The problem is after complete almost all the "base story" AKA the thriller/spy (and being honest, it was... ok*); the other gigs, as steal cars and help a fixer make the game fun. Why is that? Because you will start to feel the real about being chased, bullet in the streets of night city, run for your life... the cyberpunk 2077 experience <3 only if you buy the dlc. The problem is when you get out from dogtown, you back to the reality: a cyberpunk 2077 with (almost) the same story. Moreover, the dlc feels not mixed, not blended, and very much separated from the base game. In technical aspect, a LOT of freeze, a couple of glitch inside and outside from dogtown, and a couple of crash who close the game entirely. However, to be fair, is expected. * = I can only imagine how much time, effort, would take for the makers create a story, building and then, deliver. So thanks for all the effort, really. However, saying, "the dlc is total fun" when it does not, is not fair for the dev. Moreover, the opinion is only "game based" so, any youtube//twitch//webpages//others interviews explaining the story further, well... do not know.

Had previously dropped cp77 withough finishing main quesline, cause in general it's hard for me to finish games (something happens in IRL, don't play for 1-2 weeks and lose interest in gaming overall). So i started playing DLC content without ever finishing main game. I enjoyned this DLC very much, the story, the visuals, the dogtown atmosphere, the gigs and everything else. Thankfuly did not have many immersion breaking bugs (like npc talking and lips not moving) For me personaly, this dlc was totaly worth the money and just blew away all my expectations. I'd give it 9/10 because bugs

Base game is really good. DLC just adds more but without the magic. So, its not really neccessary unless you're really thrilled by the main game.
