Cyberpunk 2077

The good. The story and the characters are the true highlight of this game. The story is engaging and after the intro it drags you on until the very end. Some complain that the story puts too much pressure on the player and distracts from exploring the Night City, but I think this is not a bad thing - you are supposed to feel the pressure in the situation the main character got into. And it should be noted that you aren't on a real time limit either, you can explore the city as long as you wish to. The characters are authentic and well written, especially Johnny. They truly grew on me, and I found myself deeply caring for them towards the end. Most of the side characters that appear in side quests are not simple dummies either, they have a background that you uncover through dialogs and texts found throughout the game. Some appear in the final credits to indicate the results of your choices. The bad. The common sentiment is that the game feels incomplete and lacking in content, balancing and polish. Lots of bugs in this game, and they are still present in version 1.23, 8 months after release. Luckily, most of them aren't fatal. Large sections of the city are empty, as if the devs didn't have the time to fill them with content. There is a single hacking minigame, which you will be doing a lot. Brawling is completely broken - the hitboxes are insane, evading is next impossible. There aren't many weapons and their leveling is arbitrary. Character skill tree has many useless skills and not too many interesting ones. Crafting is pointless since you find a lot of good stuff in the world. Bottom line, even with my complaints above, I feel that a lot of bad reputation this game gets is overrated. Yes, the downsides are real, but when I ask myself if I liked the game, the answer is a definite yes. I enjoyed the story and characters and that overweighted all the downsides for me. If you are also looking for a good dystopian cyberpunk story then this game is for you.

Story, garphics and gameplay were fantastic and I must say, it was much better than I thought it would be. Luckily I purchased this game after the recent patches and thus I didn't run into as many bugs as people in the past ran into. However, though the game in its current state is playable and I ran into no game breaking bugs, there are still many bugs and some of them are annoying. Such as having to angle yourself a certain way in order to pick up certain items or angle your camera slightly off a target in order to properly scan it. Things like this were very annoying after encountering them more than I would have liked, but again the gameplay and story were so fun that I could look past all this and still enjoy the game. Then again, idk maybe I was just lucky too in not encountering the worst bugs that may still exist. One thing I did not like however, were that though I enjoyed many of the side quests, there were many that had, just in my opinion, way too much dialogue and boring objectives. This really bogged the game down for me, especially when I was in my last 10 hours or so of playing it. I had just gone through many fun and well balanced (in the sense of action and story) main missions that then going into these slow and sometimes boring side quests made me just wanna complete the final quest already and put the game to rest. I even skipped a few side missions in the end, because I just didn't have the patience for how boring they could be, despite enjoying the story behind them. But that's just me and you may enjoy that kind of stuff. All in all, if you are not too picky about bugs and enjoy cyberpunk themes and FPS/open world games then there is a good chance you will love it as much as I did.

I start playing this game a couple of days after the release and in spite of some issues that have been fixed in subsequent release I encountered less crashed/bugs than some other AAA title released in late 2020. Gaming experience is quite good but the solo campaign is much too short (even when doing 5 different endings) and there's no super nice side quests. Let's hope the upcoming DLCs will add some new ways to explore the city

This game is awesome. Believable world and characters are this games strongest point with top notch quests. Now gameplay isn't the best but i don't play CD Project Red games for gameplay but instead to immerse myself within the world and setting and that's what it does well. Graphics/environments/level design and music are good too It's clear a lot of love and effort made into making Cyberpunk 2077 but with it's rocky launch people will always remember it as a failure which is sad since there is an actually good game here that isn't afraid to do it's own thing.

I was waiting for this game to release since it was announced, so I was really excited when it finally came out. It is fair for me to mention that I am NOT a hard-to-please gamer, and since the first trailer, I ignored all info about the game to avoid possible spoilers. I didn't want to know, so basically the only thing I knew while I was installing it was that "Keanu Reevers is in it." I didn't know how or when Johnny Silverhand will appear, so my first gameplay was an amazing ride. I enjoyed every second of it. I did not experience any major bugs or glitches, and those that happen did not bother me. It took me 110+ hours to finish it for the first time, I didn't want to rush through after waiting all those years :D and I am so glad I did it this way. I personally LOVE the game and can't say a bad word about it. I can understand all the negative reviews, but personally I got exactly what I expected to get. Maybe my expectations were low, maybe I just chose to ignore the bad stuff and focus on the good, but either way, I can see myself coming back to Night City over and over while patiently waiting for some DLCs.
