Cyberpunk 2077

I just completed the main story, having also done quite a lot of of side content. Positives: - The city looks gorgeous. I would call it a massive achievement, but only if performance can be improved. - I didn't much enjoy the driving in this game, but at least it can be done in 3rd person (just about everything else is in 1st person, and I'd prefer 3rd). - Storytelling approaches excellence at times; tense and/or thought-provoking beats. - You can have a good amount fun with the gameplay too, if you end up with a build you like. - I see not everyone is so fortunate, but the game crashed or froze fewer than a handful of times for me. If just judging by my own experience, it seems accetably stable. UNFORTUNATELY... While the game is not quite "half-baked", it also isn't "fully baked". Its mechanics and systems are buggy and not always well explained. I could not get used to driving cars or motorcycles; even after dozens of hours it still felt awkward, even with a gamepad. And romances... Guess I've seen worse attempts in a game? Main thing that was awkward for me was how the quests where you get to know the characters sort of arrived at the same time in the game, and I felt too busy. There are very few romance options, and it STILL felt like too much was happping at once! As for sex outside romances... while the city is plenty perverted, 'V' is not. Witcher 2 was naughtier than this game. As cool as the city looks, a festival of jank is likely to make it feel like stage dressing rather than a place unfortunate souls actually live in. This game was to be released "when it's ready". It wasn't ready. At best it is, in time of writing, months away from being ready. The disapointing VERDICT: Wait for a sale.

Ta gra miała być grą Rpg, a nią nie jest. Opcje dialogowe nie mają żadnego wpływu na rozwój wydarzeń, no może pod koniec można coś tam wybrać ale to nie jest to. Technicznie nie mam większych problemów, choć mogłoby być lepiej, gra działa mi w 1440p na GTX 1660 i Ryzen 5 1600, 16GB RAM 3000MHz, na ustawieniach średnich w 30 kl/s. Glitche natrafiałem tylko w przerywnikach. Co z tego że mogę się przebierać w jakieś fajne ciuszki, skoro nie mogę być taką postacią jaką chcę być. Nie mogę wybrać ścieżki, którą chcę podążać. Gram drugi raz i wszystko jest tak samo, staram się z całych sił dokonywać innych wyborów, ale i tak wszystko sprowadza się to jednego punktu. To liniowy fps w otwartym świecie. Za pierwszym razem gra była dla mnie wciągająca i ciekawa ale nie widzę sensu aby przechodzić ją drugi raz.

The simple fact is this one was just released too early, despite several delays. While the PC version thankfully is nowhere near as broken as the PS4 version was there are still far too many moments where polish is lacking and too many strange bugs that can pop up out of nowhere. The graphics look nice, the main character voice acting is nice, but the game just does not work the way it should. Far too often saw characters stop moving their lips or randomly transition to different poses, AI for the most part seems content to stand and shoot or run into cover and sit there, and you find random bugs that range from getting stuck climbing a ledge to finding yourself unable to shoot in a mission. Maybe after a major patch of two they'll get it to where it should have been at launch, and it'll be worth checking out then.

The not-bad: Main story and "primary" side-quests are well written, well acted and generally pretty interesting. Some feel cut short and unfinished, but it is clear the vast amount of the "polish" this game got is here. Gunplay is average for an action game. Fair weapon variety, cool design, fairly fun to use, but nothing too crazy. Held back by the super basic and often broken enemy AI. Beautiful, vertically designed city/open world. From broad, open streets flanked by impressively tall buildings to maze-like cramped warrens. Shame it is simultaneously one the least "alive" feeling open worlds. The bad or downright awful: Sadly, pretty much everything else, and the character limit is far too small to do this mess justice. To summarize it, I would say the game currently feels like a promising Alpha build or a cynical MVP (minimal viable product) - every system is extremely buggy and rough - from awful performance to a plethora of visual, AI and quest trigger bugs; entirely unbalanced in terms of skills, economy, player upgrades and a pointless, empty, unreactive open-world. Upgrades are mostly boring % increases and it is way too easy to spec yourself into infinite money or functional invulnerability. AI is as basic as it can possibly be AND breaks frequently. Non combat NPCs and cars on the street have the most limited set of responses of any open world game I've ever played. No RPing in this not-RPG (CDPR is no longer calling this game an RPG in any of the post-launch materials, which is the most honest marketing they've done so far). All the cool, reactive, branching out narrative shown in the promo material? Only exists in that one main quest we've all seen, nowhere else in the game. The official hardware requirements are misleading at best - on a machine that exceeds the "Recommended" specs I struggled to play at 30-40 FPS, 1080p even at lowest settings. You'll need to go way above "Recommended" specs to make it look and play decently.

This is not PC game. It ignores what PC is, and everything in the game is maded for consoles and console players. There just few option for keyboard, almost nothing for mouse. And btw mouse cursor is maded in the way, that you dont know, what you can click, or if you clicking or not. If you clicked or didnt. Almost every aspekt of the game is bugged somehow. Sound, graphic, game control, some quests, texts, interaction with player... Everything got some minor problem. User interface and player inventory is pure hell. Is almost imposible to manage what your character is wearing and what weapons it has. Majority of all side quests are all the same. They are extremly boring and repetive. No variety. Main quest storyline is awesome. Graphic is sometimes awesome masterpiece and sometimes worse then 20 years old cheap 3D games. Nightcity is dead city without life. Cars and people are just sprites. They do not exist in the city. Police is maded from special sprites which teleports to you from all sides and kill you, if you someone dislikes you or if you accidently hurt or accidently kill someone. And sometimes even if you kill dangerous criminal. There is no AI behavior of those sprites. Dangerous gang members can explode Police Car and kill civilians without penalty just next to the snanding police and police does nothing. And oposite, if you walk on the street, the Police or other gangs can insta kill just for walking.
