《赛博朋克 2077》

Pretty sure they know along with everybody, this game was not finished one bit. Excluding the bugs and glitches overall, It definitely needs more time for development because there are LOADS of features not present in a game thought to be SOOO ambitious. This game could have been released in 2017 and the tech would have matched the time but for a 2020 "Next-Gen'' game, I was expecting next-gen tech, the character creator looks like they made it in 2016 and never touched it again. Lacks Immersion, being a first person RPG you would think the world around you would be more alive and more interactive than just going through the main story and side quests etc. Aside from that there is nothing you can do outside of those things, nothing that lets you know what it's like living in Night City, no glorious back story other than what main story characters tell you, there are no meaningful themes of cyberpunk dystopia that you can explore yourself outside the stories. Almost everything in the city is in-active, besides being awed by the sights, If you're not doing a main story etc, there is simply nothing else to do but kill NPCs or pick up a prostitute and even then the AI lacks considerably, dont expect GTA style AI. Sure you can go to venders buy some guns, go to your local ripperdoc for some cybernetics but that's it. Can't go to the girl/guy house you romanced and just chat, lack of mini games, no apartment customization, no barbershops, no tattoo parlors etc.. The lack of things to do outside of the main story is just awful. What is most disappointing is that you can definitely tell this game is 7+ years old. Only next-gen thing you notice are ray tracing and it's beautiful graphics on PC. Besides that, Inventory menu seems thrown together, weapon mods and skill tree are mostly irrelevant, the perks you get are so minor with mods it makes no meaningful change and you can't get anymore perks after level 50 SC and no New Game+ at release is disappointing.

Buggiest game I've ever played. Worst AI I can remember. Even Saints Row feels more alive. Atrocious PC controls. Did anyone playtest this steaming pile? I give it two stars because the art direction and sound are top notch. Everything else falls extremely short. Seems more like a tech demo that they tried to slap a AAA game onto in about a year or two.

Let's put aside the well-documented bugs and glitches; the main issue for me is that Cyberpunk is not a (good) RPG, it actually strips the player of the freedom it is supposed to give (with respect to other game genres, and within the limits of consumer-grade technology, of course). I have not ventured much into the storyline, but in thirty or so hours (split in two life paths) even the small details make evident the railroad we are forced to follow. Character customization is quite poor; small variations in noses or ears or or genitals do not make for meaningful choices. Besides, there is not even a barber shop in town, what is done is done forever. Shouldn't body modification be a central theme? Attributes and perks are trivial in the setting: health and stamina, ranged and melee, stealth, crafting and "hacking", with incremental bonuses. More about this later. "Life paths" are just short prologues of ten minutes or so, and some additional very sparse lines of dialogue. As I have not played the whole story I could be entirely wrong, when it comes to further developments, but the fact stays that for thirty or so hours I haven't seen much change from street kid and corpo. Dialogues offer choices without real impact on the script; also, no small measure of annoyance. Sometimes choices are "condensed", forcing the player to guess tone and meaning; some other times, there are pointless 'quick events'; every time, if the player takes the time to think, he is nagged by the NPCs ("Hello!", "Talk to me", "Gonna take long?"...) Main jobs are heavily spoon-fed. Side jobs are basically gunfights at the O.K. Corral. It is so hard to avoid confrontation that "Cool", "Intelligence" and "Tech" branches provide not different ways to achieve objectives, but small tinsels for weary eyes. Equipment? +X DPS (and clownish looks)... The world itself is terribly static. No interactions with, say, chairs or street vendors? NPCs literally walking in circles? The infamous driving AI?

I just have to say that it is a poorly GTA/Fallout/DeusEx, repetitive gameplay, boring dialogues and also too many requirements for the graphical result.

Besides what a lot of people are saying such as "It's still great beside the bugs" or "But it looks amazing" (which is partially true) this game feels utterly incomplete and comes very weak in a lot of different ways of delivering. After 100+ hours of game play I can say there are very few moment when it felt right, even if we wheren't fed all of those misinformations and false promeses, it's clearly a game that lacks some very basic things such as a proper A.I. and even story wise some parts seems put together wery roughly (especially at the beginning). Don't get fooled by the "We are going to fix all the bugs" campaign that there is going on now, bugs are the least of the problem IMO. What the game lacks is the real core content like some parts we where teased in that FAKE 2018 presentation (yes, go check it out, it was all FAKE and it took away months from real development). CDPR should really review his policies and then enforce them for real, not just pretending, with their "beautiful words" and fake commitments that in the end revealed to be just BS. As a manager of a team myself I just can't help to think about the people that worked really hard to this project, sacrificing their own time for then finding themself with this absolute mess (for not using another word) that apparently has been created by a lot of mismanagment and lies. This and the fact that they lied to us multiple times goes beyond this game being bad or incomplete and for this reason I feel like 1 star is more than enough. Luckily we have a few lessons to learn from this: DO NOT PREORDER GAMES, don't believe the hype but especially don't believe the marketing of it, and that CDPR are no different from any other "EA type" game developer. It was a cold shower but perhaps a long due one, now let's see what kind of money grab is the MP... I'm sorry if this sounds ranty but after the let down of the game and the most recent developments in the story I'm now extremely disappointed, are you?
