This was supposed to be CDPRs "Crowning Achievement". That is how they put it after the original delay of the game. What we instead have gotten is a significantly watered down version of the game that is extremely buggy and with some major problems, such as save files getting corrupted after reaching a certain size which for a game of this size and scope and with it's crafting mechanics bloating the save file further by just using ingame mechanics that the game encourages you to use, inching you closer to that save file corruption. I keep running into bugs all the time such as randomly dying while running, jumping and climbing. During a mission my character spawned over and over into the drivers seat that was already occupied by another character. Loot not being able to be looted, strange/bad AI behaviour, certain side quests not being able to be completed, missing textures and being able to walk through walls including the AI. I could go on and on and on about the various bugs I have encountered so far and continue to encounter. All these problems are constantly just taking me out of the experience that is Cyberpunk, a game that at it's core is a very solid game with some good writing, incredibly detailed city to explore with some nice character design. This is one of the few cities in a game where I actually feel like I am in a real, lived in city if that makes sense. I have no doubt that in a year from now the game will have improved dramatically but you only get 1 first playthrough and sadly this is my experience. To sum it up, CD Project Red has not delivered on what they promised, not even close.
