《赛博朋克 2077》

Up until the release date, the game was hyped up like crazy and the promotional material from CDPR was showing something quite different from what the game is actually like. It really pains me to put 3 stars after I played The Witcher 3 and absolutely loved it, to then come to this and feel kinda meh about it. I bought The Witcher 3 twice, once on Steam and again on GOG because it was the $h%&. I can't phathom the fact that CDPR was actively stopping reviewers from getting PS4/Xbox One versions and/or publishing gameplay videos recorded on those platforms. Even though the PC version is better in comparison, still I can't turn a blind eye to shady practices like this and more light needs to be shed on this topic. CDPR, you disappointed us when we actually not only had faith in you as a result of TW3, we also liked you for all of the positive interaction with the community and it seems you turned into another Ubisoft which is really sad.

This game needs a lot of work. The biggest issue by far (as we are all here on PC) is the stability of the game. I can play for about 1.5 hours before the game crashes. It does this every single time I play. There hasn't been a game session that has lasted longer than 3 hours for me (and that was REALLY laggy. To the point where I could barely walk straight in game). Then the display driver will inevitably crash, and I'll have to close the game, retart it, and try again. This by itself wouldn't be as bad as it is but the game ALSO crashes the display drivers about 4/5 times on the logo/warning screen upon startup. This is on top of the normal (ha! "Normal") crashes to desktop that occur once every 5-6 hours or so that don't involve the drivers taking a dump. Add to that the bugs. Then add the weird UI choices (vehicles for sale only have pictures in messages, not in the journal where the missions to buy them are, mousing over a target shows EITHER the info OR options for hacking, having to sell/drop useless food items one by one, etc etc). The gameplay loop itself is fun, and the story is fine. Not all of it is great (some characters are written poorly, some options in conversations make no sense for the character, etc), but a majority of the game underneith all the terribleness is a lot of fun. The saddest part is that in about 6 months, this game MIGHT be worth playing. This is a very disappointing release, and I didn't actually have my expectations set too high. Avoid for now at all costs! It will make your hair turn grey.

It is fine. It's not great. The world design is absolutely beautiful and thats probably the best thing in this game. This could be very successful cyberpunk walking simulator. Characters and vehicles look good. Visual customization aspect of everything like your character and cars is absolutely nonexistnet. You can't have robotic arm or leg like half of the NPC's have? Can't customize cars? Can't customize your own character in game? Can't buy another apartment in a large city or somehow customize the one I already have? World AI is just really dull, they walk, they talk, they run a little when threatened and... that's all. They dont even have some interesting or funny personal info on them when you scan them, like in Watch Dogs. Car AI is terrible, period. Story is good so far, I am not finished yet, but don't expect this to be RPG, there is none RP here. Main missions are pretty straightforward, story driven adventure. Side missions are being showed up your a*s by phone calls and they are so far based all on the same principe - infiltrate, retrieve/kill, escape. The only decision you are making in this game is whether you are playing Terminator or Dishonored style. Combat feels quite fine, lot of weapons, stealth possibilities are good, distractions through hacks which could do more, there is variety of skills to choose and it seems, like you need a little bit of everything. I had experienced several bugs of enemies being alerted inifinitely long, seeing me through wall etc. This game has literally no cover system. Absolutely none, best you can do is crouch and hide behind object and pray that the object is high enough, to not get headshoted or not be spotted by an enemy. And crouch toggle with C does not work everytime, even in combat, this is probably caused by "skip dialog" shortcut interfering with it. This game has definitely a lot of space for improvement. Buy it for full price only if you want to support CD Projekt Red, othervise wait for discount.

The story is somewhat interesting and the dialouge between the characters is very cool and well-written most of the time, but this is really not a fun game.

I have been playing games for last 20 years now, from PC to consoles to phones. This was probably the first and last game I pre-ordered. Cyberpunk has a great backstory and deep lore, but maybe that is the problem. The game is super ambitious but while trying everything, it wasn't able to make anything great at all. And the bugs yeah they take you out of the experience "A LOT", which is sad to see as this game is all about that only. TBH it needs a MAJOR overhaul like No Mans Sky, then only the price tag of a Triple A title is justifiable. To conclude I do have faith in CD Projeckt Red Developers, but game creation is an epitome of art form which needs to kept away (mostly) from money to make it better.
