Cyberpunk 2077

Ok, lets start with the basic mechanics of the game. First, combat. Once you pick up the Contagion quickhack, combat becomes obsolete as you are able to take down whole areas without ever coming into actual combat, later quickhacking allows you to do this through walls so you no longer even have a LOS restriction. This horrifically unbalances the game as you cant lose, it doesnt matter how much higher in level than you they are, they cant defend against you launching a hack on them from extreme range through walls. If you choose to avoid hacking completely for this reason, it is still extremely difficult to lose unless you make a mistake and take out an environmental explosive at close range. I spent hours just punching mobs to try build up my skills, the size of the mob or their equipment level didnt matter, just went in with fists and only ever died when punching said explosives, the AI never troubled me. Second, content. There are a lot of open world activities like crimes to stop and random side jobs to do, like a whole lot of them. However there is very little actual difference between them, once you do them a few times you've done them everytime, particularly the street crimes where each one is almost exactly the same encounter each time, and the side jobs you can get have very little difference between them. Its a broad smear of very thin content, You are also expected to build up an absolutely vast fortune if you want all achievements though, as you will need huge sums of money to buy all of the vehicles, the vehicles which all handle virtually identically but even if you are to do every quest, every side mission, every open world activity, you are still going to have to spend a lot of time just grinding through crafting to make the money to buy them all as there just isnt enough otherwise if you intend on getting any of the higher tier implants. There is more, but alas, review post limits.

So the story is 10/10 hands down. I finished it and it actually made me feel for the hero despite some bugs during the run. However, as you probably know, this game is flooded with bugs bugs bugs, more and more bugs. But that's not the worst thing. The worst thing is the mechanics of this game and the open world which is DUMB. Scripted scenes can be seen multiple times (like some lady shouting at husband - she never stops, seriosuly, doing it always, the same speech - it kills the immersiveness) Oh and I am not going to play this game anymore (even dlcs) until they CREATE a proper police chasing system.

First time reviewing a game and write something down for the developers, but i find it right at the end. First, let's start off with how much i was waiting for this game to come out. No games comes out without any bugs, immersion breaking or anything other related to issues, i know that, but they could have gone abit more deep into them before releasing it, or at least tell the truth to the public. Good: + City is Amazing, Stunning, Wonderful... i can lose my mind in it, really; + Shooting feel so satisfing and rewarding; + Audio and dialogues are magic; + Different introductions are very cool; + Graphics looks pretty; + Cars and interiors are on point; + Story is very entertaining and fun to follow; + Quests are my world; + Customization is vast; + Characters are sweet; + Acting is very good; + Art direction.. just OMG; + much more Bad: - Many, many, bugs; - Didn't like how the first 3 scenes comes together with a time lapse arriving at the same point; - Missing graphic canges and other essential element on the PC side; - Mediocre optimization; - RPG mechanics are there but not there at the same time; - No NPC interaction at all, you feel like they forget about you each time you decide to talk to them; - Your experience/going forward in the story doesn't count in the game, you don't really climb a sort of "VIP" or anything; - Much changed/cut content; - No 3rd person view in cut-scenes; - Stealth is something you can really do only if you hardcore the game; - City is not as dense and populated as it should be a huge place like Night City; - Crafting and Melee combat feels poor and not well made, or just rushed; - much more I hope CD Projekt Red will not end up like other companies abandoning the game but keep up the work they made and just be better, do better, try better. I want also to play Multiplayer with my wife and i really can't wait for that moment to come. As last thing, stay safe, good luck and i hope you have fun like i do. Peace

Sorry, but too many bugs..

Played for 141 hours over the span of nearly two months, beating the MSQ and majority of the game's sidequests and hidden content. There's a lot to like and hate, meaning the game's final score settles into the middle. Excellent story and characters, but with stumbles. Fantastic world design, until you get to some neglected parts. Very enjoyably mechanics, but with sub-optimal options. Obvious signs of crunch, which make the successes even more impressive and tragic. Assume that it's not going to change substantial beyond this point, and decide whether that's a deal breaker or not.
