This game is really an RPG, a new idea of an Open World and a pretty complicated game with a lot of skills, a lot of dialoge and a lot of choices but if this is not reminiscing the real world then I don't know what does. Great job CDPR!
yes, CP has bugs, but for such a very complex software like this it was to be expected, wasn't it?
And for sure - at least on the PC version (I play on a r3900x / 5700xt / 1440p) - it is miles away from being unplayable as stated in so many other posts!
In now 68h playtime I only had one crash ... that's it.
Of course there's quite a lot room for improvements (key-bindings, graphic glitches etc), but on the other hand you'll get a game with hours and hours of really good storytelling, interesting characters and themes that are rarely adressed in other RPGs,
All of this presented with great visuals and awesome sounddesign.
Maybe I'm a bit biased since I played the pen & paper RPG "Shadowrun" for many years and I like the dystrophic, near future cyberpunk setting very much, but nevertheless - bottomline is: the game is absolutly worth playing and I'm really looking forward how the story proceeds and what story DLCs will show up in future.
My first impression of this game was "This is not as good as The Witcher 3". The characters were cool, but seemed superficial. As I kept playing and got to know these characters better (including V), I realized how special this game is. The depth of storytelling and character design really pulled me in. Gameplay is fun, and the world is beautiful and varied. Sure, it was buggy at launch, but it wasn't too bad on PC, and it never prevented me from progressing. The game creates a strong sense of urgency, so it may seem out of place to pursue side quests. Take the time to do them anyway, because that's where the gold is.
Great game!
Good stories!
Good, bad, nice, nasty NPCs!
I want more!
A garage! Weapons rack, for the normal weapons! Flats to rent!
More options for dancing, drinking, listen to the music and having sex. You know, that stuffs that a nerd like to do, in Games :-)
Not more weapons. Its enough of that stuff.
Hacking is good. Cyperbody-modification is good enough.
And, i know, it is PUNK ... but please, some clothes, that "i" can wear and feel comfortable as an 50+ male. Thank you.
And yes, one little wish more. Ask you female co-workers, how they dress on saturday night. I am sure they will show you some HighHeels that look good.
Okay, thats all for the moment.
I like the game. The world is breathtaking, the characters are exciting, etc.BUT - from my point of view CyberPunk has a structural problem, which simply has to do with the writing. So Vie has this problem with silverhead in her/his head, that's the basic idea, and time plays a role. why does she/he then drive around all the time and work off orders. She/he doesn't have time for that, because she/he has serious other problems. But why does she/he then drive around all the time and work off orders. She/he doesn't have time for that, because she/he has, as I said, serious other problems. Or way around, why: was it was not possible to implement some pills (which already exist, but not properly implemented), which slow down the deterioration for a while and even stop it, but which are very expensive. then making money would make sense. And so the whole plot as well.
Everything else that is so criticized does not bother me. Yes, that whole game is somehow not balanced, sometimes loving to the detail, sometimes totally sloppy. you can feel the pressure on the developers. anyway - I still like the game, as I said-.
