Cyberpunk 2077

Half baked after all these years

Oh boy, where to start... Obviously, game isn't finished. It feels like almost everything cool they showcased is made worse or completely cut. My personal favourite from trailers, Trauma Team, gets no screen time what so ever. On gameplay, RPG elemets are dull and unimaginative. Taking account "table-top-origins", skill systems feels weird and not even slightest loyal to source material. Only imaginative thing in perks is their names, otherwise it just "+10% to thing X", seen thousand times over. There are so many cool things they could have done yet somehow ended with copy-pasting every other game ever. Plot just feels heavily cut. They said that main quest will be shorter but this is just a joke. There are no other major plot points others that marketing already spoiled (thanks!). Writing is great at best but at worst, it just makes no sense. City (map) itself is fine and great. Yet it feels dead and empty. NPC:s are braindead, cop system is non-existant. There are no safe-houses to spend your money on, no properties to buy. Basically, only thing you can spend heavy money is cars. Which of them most of are unplayable because you cannot see anything while driving on first person. As a cherry on top of the cake, there are bugs and glithes all over the place. The worst thing for me that the game still managed to be entertaining and fun, earning second star. Why is this the worst, you may ask? Because of the looming tough, how much better game could have been for a little more effort. And you keep constantly seeing glimpses of that thinking of yourself "oh, that was cut too." I am not sure if game can be salvaged. Not without heavy rework anyway. Cyperpunk 2077 Enchanted Edition, anyone?
