Prior to the 1.5 patch - which was supposed to address a number of game play issues and bugs, I had rated Cyberpunk 2077 a solid 4 star, and intended to make it a 5 once some of the annoying (but still playable) bugs were addressed. Enter patch 1.5, the bugs are no longer annoying things that require a work around, they are progress halting, PC freezing. The game got less playable with patch 1.5, things that didn't need to be addressed (imo) like the crafting system, number of mods on items, and skill system got addressed - instead of doing what the game actually neeeded - to fix the bugs and deploy advertised content (firing from a moving vehicle for instance from the drivers seat - there's a lovely video of it in the promotional), multiple player modes, completing more of the world. Instead the bugs are now made worse, and it's been stated that CDProject Red knew this was going to be case, so my view has dropped from a 4 star, to 1. Because a game you can only play until it freezes in the story line is not worth purchasing.
