Unlike many other negative reviews, I honestly loved the game on release day. I did not experience any of the issues others did or claim to have, and enjoyed the overall feel that the game gave me. What I did not like was the ending, the fact that no matter what road you choose, the ending would be the same, albeit a different version or variation of it. Pros: + Gun, Melee & Cyber warfare fights are great. Love the cyber bit a lot. + Models and animations are awesome. + Lots of missions and a good storyline. + Great cast of character and good voice acting. + Variations of paths to take to complete your objective. + The adult theme can't be adult enough. Cons: - Johnny Silverhand (Sorry, but not sorry. I love Keanu Reeves, but this character is someone you either like or dislike and I disliked the persona quite a bit. I feel that at the same time, it should be an optional tidbit of the game, where choices matter, even in the beginning. Having JS stuck with you from the get-go ruins a lot of the story for me. On my 2nd playthrough I skipped all his BS chitchat. At the same time, the insertion of this character adds to the lethal ending of the MC. I get that there are variations, but oh boy was this a bad move in my books. Summary: The game should have been called Dead Man Walking to be true to the overall theme of the game. At any rate, I've played it to death several times and while there were some odd bugs here and there, the game gave me a satisfactory playthrough. Now I know a lot of QOL updates are coming this way as CDProjekt intends to heavily invest in CP2077 as a franchise, so expect a lot of fixing and a probably a lot of free DLC. To the devs: You guys rock. Keep up the good work and grow to be better and stronger together. Peace.
