+ story & many interesting side quests
+ graphics
+ stability (the gam has not crashed on my PC since the release)
+ music
- bugs (but they are just funny, it is always possible to complete missions or it just needs you to restart the game)
story 9/10
the length of the game medium or short in compare with witcher 3
graphics (I've was playing with intel core I5 9400F, GTX 1060 Gaming X, 16GB ram and SSD disc) at the most graphics settings at low or maybe sometimes medium at 40 FPS . 7/10
gameplay (shooting) I'd like the feeling of shooting because it's satisfying
My rating from 0 to 10 of the cyberpunk is 9,5/10 bcs it's my favorite game I've ever played BUT I'm waiting for hotfixes and lot of patches and of course :> lot of DLC's
Powodzenia CD PROJEKT RED (Good luck CDPROJEKT RED)
Okay first: The STORY is really GREAT. Really. Quit crying about the bugs, they will be fixed. (*)
I didn't jump on the hype train in 2020, so I don't know what people were expecting it to be.
I did NOT preorder, I did NOT pay 100% price. I got it -20%, EVEN after all the media critique, dissapointment rants, crying, etc.
I kind of went in with quite mediocre expectations.
And the game surprised me twice:
1. First you notice your PC CAN'T HANDLE the game :D
Im not nerdy Uncle Scrooge, but a basic gamer (GTX 1060 6GB). So pull the shadow details down and use Static FidelityFX CAS 60-75% and you will do fine. If you have a better graphics card, then you can enjoy even better graphics. You will manage. Maybe in 2022 we all can buy new old GPUs which can handle the game just fine.
2. The STORY and CONNECTION you'll create for the characters is something different.
This game made me think about life and living, the future of our planet and society. It made me WANT to succeed with the partner of the main character. Never *really* had that emotion before (allthough haven't played Witcher 3 yet, so...)
I think one of the key things here is well written dialogue and the immersion what JALI (facial animation engine) does. And all the hours of motion capture for all characters. I REALLY, REALLY appreciate the effort what the CDP has put into this.
PROs;
+ Story
+ Gameplay
+ Immersion
+ Future possibilities (DLC's, etc)
NEGs:
- I know they had lots more thought for the first act: deeper connection for your buddy, etc.
- They maybe rushed some bits of the stories (scripted scenes)
- Maybe could hade done the RPG-elements even more substantial or effective
- More options/actions for character (after creation)
(*) = 1.2 is stable enough. I started playing in 1.12. I have had more crashes in Division 2, than this. It is sometimes buggy, but that is NOT the point. The point is to see the bigger picture: the story of the game is immersive and really great.
Played on patch 1.2 only and with an RTX rig.
The world design, main story, side quests, gunplay and attention to detail are amazing. Also the levelling is quite diverse, there are various builds. GTA style effing around doesn't work in this game, true, however, I wasn't looking for that either.
The game is very much similar to the Witcher 3 in regards to HUD, mission types, quest and character construction, which is mostly a good thing. The plot is less polished then in Witcher, sometimes one can get lost in the story or in a multitude of characters. There is also less meaningful choices affecting the main questline. Side content is sometimes great (like The Hunt quest) and sometimes it’s just boring filler missions with no context. The bugs are plentiful; I’ve had mostly visual glitches (cars and NPCs appearing out of nowhere, missing textures etc) some AI bugs, and one quest breaking bug where I wasn’t able to hear or read any dialogue. The combat was far more enjoyable then I would have predicted. I don’t usually enjoy shooters but in this game I was having a lot of fun. Soundtrack is very good, both music and sound fx. The characters are fantastic; except for Johnny Silverhand. This might be controversial, but his character seemed the most out of place and I often found myself not knowing what he wanted from me. I don’t like rating games 1-5, rather 1-10, and this one gets 7.5-8/10. If not for bugs it might have been a solid 8-8.5/10.
