Cyberpunk 2077

I've got a good computer (new ryzen and rtx3080), but game runs at a smooth 60fps with all max settings (except for the 'psycho' option on some settings) at 1440p. No crashes or major bugs so far (few minor graphical glitches here and there, but easily overlooked). About 3-4hrs in so far and the writing, story, world building, voice acting, music, audio, graphics, everything has just been fantastic. Highly recommend!!

I wander around in the city just watching the architecture. I really enjoyed the game, it was worth it for me. I'd like to thank all the people that invested so much time into this project.

I like to scour RPGs and this provided 150+ hours of fun. I may even ride around aimlessly in the future. Yep there is a long list of annoyances but if you are looking for a looter shooter RPG this is worth your time.

I've played idk roughly about 30 hours maybe, overall it's a good game and well worth playing. But there are a few things that could be better. First, the game is in need of serious optimizations, It's way too demanding on your graphics card. Either that or they need to change the recommended specs because it's way off. Secondly, there are long stretches where you are arbitrarily not allowed to save your game. It's extremely annoying when your lunch gets cold because you can't shut the game down for 10 minutes because it's in the middle of a VERY long scripted sequence. There is no reason I should not be able to save and shut down the game any time I please. As I said this is a completely arbitrary restriction and it's the most annoying thing about the game imho. The UI could stand some improvements. There are way to many confirmation dialogs when selling items and you can't skip them by just pressing the button again. Some weird button assignments as well. Where it says to press "X" and you have to press "A" instead (Xbox one controller). As to the game breaking bugs that were reported at launch, they seem to have been fixed for the most part. I have only run into issues a couple of times. Mostly items that you can see but are unable to pickup. A couple times I have gotten stuck on the geometry and had to reload a save.

From the little I know about the history, it's about a trend of shareholders pressuring developers and they needing to give out a half-baked cake, lots of bits crude. This is No Man's Sky all over again. The market can be a harsh mistress, but the alternative is worse, and that's it for tangent politics from me... As I've seen their case, they're not fault, they had no choice while being pushed against a wall. The game is of right now, very better than launch, these band-aid patches made it much more playable avoiding crashes, but if the goal is just to avoid, well, it's still tackling the low hanging fruit. A game should be stable as possible and crashes rare. I appreciate the free DLCs as a bonus because of the incident. I have my hopes up, some will call me naive, but believing CDPR is working to put that cake back in the oven and finish cooking it, make a comeback such as No Man's Sky did, the game still has potential to be groundbreaking. I'm not saying it isn't right now, but it's a reasonably broken still. Put your hearts on it, fellas. My mindset is: buying on pre-release is a bad idea. I bought it because I love GOG/CDPR and wanted to support the team, if it was only for badass Keanu Reeves, I'd have bought later. lol If I have to wait another year, fair game. As long as the cake is not a lie. ;)
