Cyberpunk 2077

9/10, room to grow with updates and add-ons. Payed on a laptop w/ Ryzen 5, 1650, 8 GB RAM ... "smartly optimized". We're going to make it chooms, trust. :)

Despite all the controversies, this game is, for me, very good. Important information: I played on PC and with Patch 1.22 and in infiltration/Hacking. Cons: We are not in a great FPS, nor in an RPG with huge freedom nor yet in a truly open world in which interactions are multiple. Unfortunately, sometimes the gameplay is average or even bad, like with the too slippery cars. Prefer the motorbike. There is too much unnecessary filler (NCPD jobs, too many contracts, shards and items). The balancing of the game isn't handled very well. But for me, these concerns totally fade away in front of the undeniable qualities of the game. Pros: Night City, the city is fabulous, extremely immersive and well thought out. Whether it's the architecture (from mega-buildings, to slums), the neighbourhoods, the clothes, the advertising... the inequalities, everything is consistent with this dystopian vision of a possible future. Add to this the incredible power of technology, which allows implants and augmentations to transform society. But it is really the story that deepens and gives the work its political and social flavour. The story, the side quests, everything is indeed well constructed and the secondary characters are excellent. It's thin and relevant. As for the gameplay, immersed in this story, accompanied by a more than nice background music, it is at the level of a rather successful FPS. And with the right implants, you can really have fun and make your character evolve according to your desires. Personally, playing in infiltration, I experienced the different challenges as enigmas to go unnoticed like a ghost. I have rarely seen a universe so well transcribed and with so much immersion. For me, it is a worthy successor to Vampire Bloodlines or Fallout New Vegas, which were also buggy at their release date. So CDProject, it is absolutely necessary to continue to develop the Cyberpunk 2077 license, as it is the case for Witcher. I look forward to the DLC and sequels!

its not like the witcher but its amazing i like the story and NC and the options

Skpping technical issues with the game early on, as usual, CDPR dealt with those. The game is gorgeous, it has an amazing sound track, and a gripping story IMHO filled with some pretty great characters (and some that aren't so great.) I'm on my 4th play through, and still enjoying the game. Yes, it's not a wide open RPG where you can be anyone and do anything, but then again neither was TW3 either. Although, TW3 did have more ending possibilities. I'm personally okay with that, because the plot and world are both very gripping. The game blends some of my favorite aspects of GTA, Hitman and Deus Ex in to one game, and does it very well. However, it could be so much more. Some of this could be fixed via DLC, some of this could be just something they need to wait for "Cyberpunk 2078" for or something. I want more ending options, or at least path options to the end. I want more diversity in the dialogue for different personalities, and more "reprecussions" from dialogue and options like TW3. These things are doable, with time. That said, again, for AAA prices? I'm perfectly happy with my purchase. I just see how it could have been even more.

This has been one of the most controversial games, maybe ever. CDPR lied for nearly a decade about things that would be in the game. How it launched was frankly inexcusable. However. The good parts are really good. This game made me feel things, and that hardly ever happens. In fact, at this point listening to Never Fade Away brings back pretty much all of it. And I finished my playthrough months ago. I want more of this setting. Because the city and the setting and everything like that is phenomenal. Maybe I have simple taste or something, who knows. But I think this is a good game. Very flawed, but a good game. 3.5 stars / 5
