Cyberpunk 2077

I tried this again when patch 1.5 came out. It's still a huge mess. This is what I experienced: 1. Random crashes to desktop 2. Weapons in V's hand suddenly becoming invisible 3. Vehicle controls have been improved very very marginally. It's still nowhere near 'ok' 4. Still no way to configure a dodge key 5. The world and NPCs still feel dead, despite promised updates on this. 6. V and NPCs are still glitching or get stuck in an animation I could go on and on, but these are the worst imo. And I'm not even talking about features that were included in games like GTA or Saints Row, or should be fixed e.g. - more things to do than just gigs. Aside from story missions and some side quests all quests feel as dead as the world the game needs way more immersion to be called a role playing game - make stealth actually rewarding - vehicle customization - a crafting system rework (as it is now you can craft a gun out of components gotten from 3 packs of condoms and an ash tray). It's more tedious than fun. - pricing rework of junk items instead of making everything $3 to force you to participate in the poor crafting system - full talent trees rework. Almost everything is passive bonuses - many graphics improvements, e.g. dents and scratches on cars - system for committing crimes like robberies and heists At the current rate with which they are fixing things, I estimate it will take at least 5 years to get this in a state that games like GTA and Saints Row had on release.

was super exited about this game for years... preordered (yes my mistake and trust me I learned my lesson), Its not about the bugs that makes this game bad, is the overall game design that is terrible, everything they said this game was going to be either got cut out or is non existent in the final product. Dont waste your money on this game is total garbage, very dissapointing...

When the game dropped, the story was what kept me around. I uninstalled after completion of the story and collecting the things I wanted from side quests. Cars, gun, you know the vibes. I recently reinstalled after months of the games release and its actually worse than when I played the first time. I finally download glitches or the patches introduced new glitches. I played a bit and realized the game felt off was due to sounds muted. I checked my settings, restarted the game, tried new settings, and no sound other than voice and gunfire. If I'm in a car, I'll hear the car, if I'm outside the car I don't hear them go by. No sounds from passerby's, walking, running, sliding, etc. I really believe they can deliever an amazing experience. However, with so much time being spent on fixing small bugs and glitches, and not adding content or addressing issues the community has begged to be fixed I am afraid the game will continue to stew in mediocrity if not disappointment. Pros: -The Main Story, is fantastic. Your options of choice aren't as wildy differing as a game like New Vegas or the like but you can make definitive choices that impact the story and endgame. -The characters are well written for the most part and have potential for more if they decide to add more content eventually. - The gunplay isn't the best, and stealth is meh, HOWEVER I did enjoy myself didn't necessarily get bored or frustrated that I would place it in the Cons section. -The side quests are numerable if not repetitive at times but the ones that grant you new items or cars are fun to do. -The graphics are decent, which I'm guessing everyone already knows. Cons: -Literally everything else. - A lot of repetition in side quests and some main quests too - Some cars are worthless to have - Romance is shallow and doesn't build any depth to either characters - Glitches/Bugs. - Bad AI/No AI - Untapped potential in every category. Please listen to your community when you can. They're trying to help.

So, wasnt wasnt great to begin with thought updates would fix it but nope, now it wont even launch the game, good job. Do not buy.

Some very nice world building. The amount of minor details and environmental storytelling is staggering and it makes the Night City a great place to explore. The only thing missing in it is the feeling of scale. When I stand in citi centre in London I see that it's huge. Lots of people walking around, cars, noises - everything is alive. That feelinf is absent in Night City. Main characters are well made, but lack the screen time to get the player to really know them. I had a feeling that every time I was close to connecting to a side character the game pushed them to the side and never spoken of them again. Shooting and general combat is pretty satisfying. It allowed me to follow my favourite route of pistol weilding gunslinger and still be able to kill most enemies without many issues. The biggest flaw was the lack of ammo. I had to buy new clips almost before every quest. Enemies are unfortunately bullet sponges. I expect a headshot to kill my target in one shot - two if they have a helmet, but in this game I needed to empty a whole magazine to kill them. Story has a terrible pacing. The intro is based on your chosen backstory and it literally takes 20-40 minutes to complete. After that every character meets in the same main storyline and follow it to the end. The only extra thing you get from you backstory is an occasional dialogue option, but it doesn't benefit you in any way. The biggest problem is the story finale. It comes out of nowhere. Just as I was getting into the story, the game shoved a third act at me and the game ended. I finished the whole thing in 30 hours and that was with me following many side quests in between the main story. Really disappointing. Driving is absolutely terrible. Just use fast-travel or download mods which tweak the handling of vehicles. Overall a 3/5. The game had a potential, but was clearly rushed at the end.
