Cyberpunk 2077

Lets get the stuff I like out of the way first. I adore the atmosphere of the game, when it isn't glitching walking Night City is fantastic. I like the shooting, it feels good to shoot and there aren't that many exclusively single player games that go for good feeling gunplay. I like the clothing options you have, however the problem is that you're generally going to always, ALWAYS be picking clothes for stats because upgrading items is frankly too expensive for the gains you get. I like the story so far. I hate the interface. in order to eat a burrito as best I can tell you need to go through three menus, and the backpack/selling inventory window is garbage, it lacks critical information and prioritizes showing boring icons that tell you almost nothing. You can't see secondary stats when upgrading an item like headshot bonus. You CANNOT REBIND KEYS BY DEFAULT. The minimap had a really hard time telling me how to get out of the apartment for the first time. The ai for citizens in the open world and cars is frankly pathetic, less than what you'd get in open world games almost ten years ago. The first time I alerted the cops they instantly spawned directly behind me and I evaded them by, of all things, seemingly glitching them out of existence by walking nearby them. The reason the cops spawned was because I was trying to take a stealthy approach to handling gang activity and the game just couldn't handle that at all because I'm pretty sure it was using an area based trigger to not have the cops care about you killing violent wanted gang members(the area trigger seemed to be about the size of an area rug). The biggest problems I can see with this game, what REALLY brings it down seems to be the direct implementation core features of the game that you have to interact with in an open world game are just bafflingly deficient. When the game works it can be a lot of fun I like the story a lot, but stepping outside of that story this feels like an early access game.

The game is clearly not finished and i'm not talking about bugs i encountered 2 bugs and just had to save and reload not even reload a previous save, i reload a save i made in front of the bug and it was gone when i reloaded. Graphical glitch are plenty though but that doesn't bother me much. The AI is from the 2000's and i think by saying that i'm mean to 2000's games, because damn it's bad in cyberpunk 2077 The RPG element are non existent, dialogue choice are meaningless There is nothing to do for meaningless fun, i mean like in the Yakuza games or in GTA 5 It's just very shallow Maybe with a ton of DLC and recoding the AI, that can happen in 4 years, people will be able to enjoy a finished product.

The game is broken. It´s like a beta or an early access. And the worst point is you can't even play it at 1080p-60fps with the recommended graphic card (1060 6gb). But for me these are only technical problems. The main point is that's not what cdprojekt promised. I remember the advertisements, trailers, interviews saying "this is a rpg game where you can meet every npc and visit every location and building. you can do wathever you want". Ok, it´s a lie. This is not a sandbox, it´s a railroad. The most commmon quote in this game is "door (blocked)" God story, god dialogues, god art but definitely not an rpg. it's a mix between a GTA and Deus Ex (New games). I only hope I can update this review in the near future to give 5 stars.

The game promised a lot, and what we got was a game full of bugs. The gameplay experience may improve with future patches, but now it just disappoints. When you're on a mission, super deep, wild bug pops up and ruins the whole experience. As of the date this review was written, do not buy the game if you do not have a state-of-the-art PC, risk of being unplayable.

The devs lied about everything, we paid 60$ to be QA testers for this mess. A huge absolutely ridiculous amount of technical AND graphical bugs. The worst skill tree I ever saw in a RPG Sorry, its no longer an RPG, the devs lied again and now changed it to "action adventure" Driving is fucking atrocious AI is fucking non-existing and game breaking "daily crafted NPCs" my ass, more fucking lies I would refund this shit instantly if I could, no amount of day 1 patches will fix this mess. 1st and last time I ever pre-order a game, I thought CDPR would be different, but nope, fuck that noise.
