Would recommend anyone to play this instant classic. The universe, the graphics, the characters, the story. Although "branching storyline" is giving it a lot of credit. There are some simple choices you can make. Though in the end it comes down to 4 or
Told no matter what. I would describe this game as a near-linear epic tale set in a dystopian future where capitalism has gained so much upper hand that nothing else is left. Even entertaining the thought of a democratic system gets you brainwashed by your TV... The game does an amazing job of "show, don't tell" even though it tells you a lot through it's shards... Everything you see in this game is done with a purpose and the design of levels in this game is done so amazingly well to fit in with that. Every mission, every small event, every contact with other people sells you the idea of cyberpunk 2077. Even the music pulls you into the city's setting. Making it feel tangible, real. The entire game is built to make you cynical to a point where you eventually throw up your hands and shout "F&$k it!". Yes, there are bugs. Yes, the game is glitchy sometimes. Yes, there are some small details that don't work here and there. But dangit isn't all that crap forgivable due to the unbelievably beautiful story they are telling you. It's not a "good" story where you are the knight in shining armor. It's not a happy story where you save the beautiful dame/sir. It's not a nice story where everyone lives happily ever after. But gosh-darnit, it's an incredible story, a powerfull story. The powerful acting and animations truly bring the characters in this game to life. I truly felt for some of these characters. It sent chills down my spine and it enraged me, it made me weep and it made me smile. It sure as shit changed my mind on some things... So... I guess... Thanks to whoever made this game. It has been an amazing ride.
