Cyberpunk 2077

A broken, buggy, mess of a game

This was the first game I submitted a refund request for on GOG. For starters, it's broken. Performance is all over the place. One minute you might be playing at 80 FPS, the next it's down to 15. All because you looked at a wall the wrong way. (seriously) I also encountered two game breaking bugs, forcing me to constantly reload autosaves just to finish one of the main story missions. Sometimes, reloading didn't work. So I just kept doing it until it did. (the AI that plays with you decided to nope out of there. He's kinda needed, so... rip mission) I also found a door that for some reason didn't want me to walk through it. It was a fairly important door, too. As in, if I don't go through it, the story ends, and the AI with me yells at me indefinitely. I also spontaneously combusted once. So that was neat, but only the door and the AI not doing its job were actually game breaking. (note: I assume a random invisible thing blew up beside me, lighting me on fire) The reason I decided to go for a refund, however, was because of the horrible performance. With an 8th gen i7, 16GB of RAM, and a 1070, the game preset to ultra. This was very much unplayable, so I lowered it down to medium. No big deal, right? Graphics still looked good, and the game ran at about 60-90 fps. That is, until it decided it didn't want to run at 60-90 fps. Open door? 30 fps. Look at wall? 15 fps. Walk 5 feet in a random direction? 20 fps. Heaven forbid I try to walk into Night City. I'm honestly amazed my game never actually hard crashed, but it sure felt like it wanted to. All in all, don't buy Cyberpunk 2077. At least not yet. Or if you do, don't buy it on PC unless you have a 20XX or 30XX card. Aside from the bugs, glitches, and whatever else? The game was fun. I enjoyed it. But I still can't recommend it. Unless you're into torturing yourself... then, I guess it's okay? (I ended up buying it on Stadia instead, and it runs well. Still buggy, but at least I can play it now)
