I am playing the game on version 1.04. The only issue I had was with the sound of running cutting out randomly. I have not have any issues with crashes others have run into. My build is entirely AMD with my card Sapphire Radeon 5700 XT. I am using the latest drivers. Also, I am writing this review while in Act 2 (I don't know how many acts there are) and have accomplished quite a number of side quests along with the main quest in Act 2. This game is a spiritual successor to The Witcher 3. All the underlying principles that made Witcher 3 a great game can be applied to this game. The world in this game is absolutely phenomenal. Everywhere I went in Night City felt unique and hand crafted. All the locations the side quests and main story missions took place in never felt like copy and pasted. Night City is definitely a work of art. The story, as far as I have completed, feels complete and fleshed out. The pacing has been consistent and chock full of details as one would expect from a CDPR game. The characters and dialogue dynamic and realized. The conversation choices are not bland and simple as with other games of the same genre. They characters actually talk like adults rather than something out of a childrens fantasy book. All combat paths are viable in the game. You can build your character however you want and they will all feel unique in the way you build them. In fact, mixing up the characters also work, unlike in the Witcher where you had to specialize in terms Signs, Combat, or Potions. You can specialize in this game or be a generalist with both build styles being viable. They also do not feel similar. As I am running out of character space, I cannot say more. With all the good, there are definitely issues with Cyberpunk. The same "spiritual" defects you find in Witcher 3 are also found here. My purpose of the review was to make this comparison because I felt it appropriate and may give people a better idea of what to actually expect from this game.
The game has a high production value. You can tell that the developers and other members of the team put their heart and thoughts into this game. It is unfortunate that the game did not sell well. This game is truly a work of art and I would encourage those interested in stealth and real-time strategy genres to give this game a try.
