Cyberpunk 2077

I pretty much ignored all the marketing and trailers with the exceptions of E3 demo and the launch trailer ( I highly recommend watching the launch trailer before starting the game and after finishing it). It was easy to foresee that anyone who will follow all the marketing material, will be disappointed by the final product. It takes time and experience to see that. Some younger gamers were trapped in the overhype illusion and got angry and disappointed at CDPR for releasing a "bad" game. I finished Cyberpunk 2077 and it was a fantastic journey. It is true that some quests and story lines maybe feel rushed or incomplete but the game as a whole is great! Played almost 100 hours and I'm taking a break at the moment but will return to experience all the different endings. I had only a few bugs in the game, and there were only a single bug which prevented me to complete all the side gigs (the bug has been fixed). I'm playing this game on a laptop with i7 and RTX 2070 on high settings and never experienced any performance issues. There will be patches that will greatly improve the game, because it is made by CDPR, and personally for me, it's quality is guaranteed, even if it got a bumpy launch.

I really enjoyed the story and I especially loved the photo mode as well. I really like the characters and the whole living city. To this day, I find a place where I’ve never been and I’ve done most of the missions I could. I really hope more DLC and sequels come! Thank you so much CDPR, very cool experience! Thank you for your work ! P.S There are some bugs in the game, but CDPR will definitely be fix it. I guess a lot of croaking in old games didn’t find fault either. Enjoy the game, you don't have to start a world war right away.

Amazing game. The story, the mechanics, the characters, are all extremely fleshed out, and the game is a pleasure to play. It has a couple bugs, but really, it doesn't seem that bad to me. There's only one I encountered that actually interefered with a quest, and it was a minor side one. There was intially a bug about savegames over 8 MB being corrupted (due to massive crafting/etc), but CDPR patched that right up a couple days after. The car driving is finicky though, just get a motorcycle ASAP and skip the races unless you're good to get used to the controls. Or better yet, just run where you can, it's more fun. As of writing, I haven't completed every sidequest, but after 200 hours the excitement still hasn't fully worn off. Haven't played a game this fulfilling and immersive in over 15 years. Just don't get it on console from what I've heard, and if you're concerned about the bugs wait a couple weeks/months for a bevy of patches.

Pros: The beauty of seeing futuristic things like cyborg-ish life e.g. internal organs modification Cons: Game physics is totally off - Hoping for CDPR to add those in future patches

This game is the first in my life that I bought in preorder and played right after the premiere. I was looking forward to it for few years and all delayes. I was never disappointed by gameplay or graphics. It's not perfect tho and there are some things that bothered me. Story is great, dark, emotional and complicated, but not decision heavy, there are few moments where your decisions matter and it feels a little shallow for me. Graphics and scale of the world are amazing! Only crowd ai is poorly executed. Sometimes things and people are duplicated, you see two or three of the same pedestrian in one place and it can be bothering. There are lots of bugs but I've encountered only one gamebreaking, the rest was just noticeable but not much bothering. I loved netrunner stealthy gameplay, trying not to kill anyone. Aaaaaaaaand there appeared a really annoying thing during the 2nd playthrough... even when you don't kill anyone, your gameplay style doesn't change at all, except for using different tools and hacks. Till today I finished 2 full games and I'm waiting for dlc's for the 3rd playthrough. Replayability is good, starting over feels like uncovering new mysteries, especially when you realize that there are some secret places with secret cargo you haven't found previously. Without gamepad driving is super hard, it should be fixed for the keyboard. I strongly recommend to play this game despite its flaws.
