Before I review the game I want to state that I meet/surpass all the minimum system requirements provided by CD Projekt Red's support page. My OS: 64-bit Windows 7, CPU: Intel i7-4790, RAM: 16GB, GPU: Rtx 2060 super (8GB Vram) and lastly a SSD with plenty of left over space (200GB). The substance, (the story, the characters, the animations, the music, the combat etc) is amazing. CD Projekt Red put a lot of time and work on this game and delayed it multiple times over to make sure it's, "coming out when it's ready". However, in it's current state the game lacks a lot of fine tunning and technical stability. The game will crash randomly even at the lowest settings and with constant fps drops in cpu and gpu heavy areas such as when you're driving around in night city. Honestly, it's unplayable right now because you can't really play a game where you lose progress all the time at random. I uninstalled the graphic drivers about four times with DDU in safe mode and installed the up to date nvidia drivers provided by their website. My graphics card is brand new. I'm not the only one with technical problems either. I don't recommend this game right now. It's not a complete game from a renowned company such as CD Projekt Red who knew that the game was going to sell well and still decided to release it unfinished when it clearly needed 4-6 more months of stability optimization and fine tunning the systems to make this game a masterpiece. What I don't like especially is seeing this kind of business practice from CDPR. I don't want games unfinished today and I have to wait weeks and months to be able to play the game I paid full price for. The game should have been released in 2021 around March and May to adhere to the statement, "coming when it's ready". They already made back their development costs from pre orders alone so I don't believe for a second that they couldn't wait 4-6 more months and release a proper experience for players of all platforms to enjoy.
