    If they fix the bugs it could go up to a 6 maybe a 7 at best. Actually making this game live up to three hype would take years and I would guess is impossible. This. Ain't. It.

    It is not a great shooter, it's not a great stealth game, playing with a controller is janky, repetitive side missions shooting and looting will bore most of you and become a tedious grind (unless you're into that)

    It is not a great shooter, it's not a great stealth game, playing with a controller is janky, repetitive side missions shooting and looting will bore most of you and become a tedious grind (unless you're into that) and finally you can't interact with anything in the world outside of the main quest and side content. There is no replayabilty, your choices are meaningless. It is just an OKAY linear action game set in a beautiful world (if your hardware can show you it). Driving is horrible, police AI is the worst I've ever seen in a game. This game was overhyped and not worth $60. Jack of all trades, master of none. Releasing this game early was a corporate cash grab Maybe wait a year for them to fix the bugs and get it on sale for sub $30 and I think you'll be pleased.

    Eu amei o jogo no pc, jogabilidade boa, história ótima e gráficos incríveis principalmente com rtx, hdr e 4k, mesmo quem não tem monitor hdr pode baixar o sehade no Nexus mods que deixa o jogo lindo, já tenho mais de 50 horas e até agora só bugs visuais, realmente muito triste não ter esse nível nos consoles

    I can look past some bugs but what really killed the game for me was the performance issues with the game. If you dont have a beast pc you will not run this game on a stable 60fps

    The story is good but the game is a buggy mess and runs like ****

    Playing on a mid-range PC I've had an absolutely great time with this game, yes the bugs are there and the performance isn't where it should be but I assume both those issues will be addressed within a couple months. The world design is just incredible, I often get into car crashes because I can't help but stare at the jaw dropping architecture. Every single place I go in this massive world is just beautiful. The character and esthetic are also incredibly well done. The combat felt underwhelming at first but after getting some favorite weapons and buying some good Cyberware, there's plenty of ways to approach a fight.

    CDPR has a truly special world here, the potential is just unreal. If they put in the work to address the bugs/performance, this game will be an all time favorite.

    This game has amazing writing and characters, an interesting world but sadly, there are glitches and bugs everywhere. Walk a few meters and there will be another car falling from the sky or NPCs clipping into walls or eachother. So much potential but barely playable.

    Bugs aside, the game is stunning on high settings, but just not entertaining. It's that kind of experience, that looks good on a paper, but when you play it, it's just routine missions and dialogues, unpleasant characters, that rarely open their soul for you, and the city, where you can't even purchase food from street markets.

    There are a few side-quests, that made me laugh, but

    Beautiful world with a complete lack of things to do in it. vendors serve no purpose, light on custimization, worst ai's, npcs have nothing really to say I could go on and on on what you CANT do in this game.

    I'm 12-15 hours into the game, and I'm yet to see a bug, at least one that has any effect on anything. I'm not sure what these people are talking about, or how honest they are in their opinions. My best guess is that they are console peasants and the game doesn't run well on their PS4/Xbox, so they are taking their frustration on everything else and are rating the PC version, even thoughI'm 12-15 hours into the game, and I'm yet to see a bug, at least one that has any effect on anything.

My best guess is that they are console peasants and the game doesn't run well on their PS4/Xbox, so they are taking their frustration on everything else and are rating the PC version, even though they shouldn't. I sympathize, but on the other hand I'm happy that CDPR haven't downgraded the game for Consoles. Consoles have held back games already long enough. So if you are already familiar with Cyberpunk and want to decide whether to buy or not, don't fall for this tsunami of ****. Buy if you have a good PC, wait if you are on consoles, especially if you have a last gen console. But to the game itself. Let's begin by it's strongest aspect: The atmosphere is INTENSE. It's unlike anything I have seen in 25 years of gaming. The way CDPR conveys the anxiety of the Night City is phenomenal .You are not given a moment of peace. You can see and feel the mental severity of the world everywhere. It's truly a mad environment. The story so far is very engaging, but I don't want to talk much about it because 1. I want to avoid spoilers 2. I want to finish the game first. Gameplaywise, Cyberpunk 2077 is nothing short of what I expected. The shooting element is refined and has weight. I play on hard difficulty and I need to always be on my toes. I need more time with the RPG system to form an opinion, but based on how great everything else is, I suspect it will be satisfactory as well. Expand

    Story/Narrative Experience: 9/10
    Great overall Storytelling as is expected from a CDPR title (Main+Sidequests)

    Atmosphere/World Immersion 10/10
    Amazing world-building looks and feels very authentic and one does easily feel truely immersed in the setting because of that.

    Graphics: 9/10
    Its a rather taxing title in terms of hardware, but that shows the details lighting effects, shadows and reflections look great even without RT and with that its simply breathtaking to look at or take screenshots in.

    Open-World-Mechanics: 6.5 / 10
    The open world mechanics like:
    1) sideactivities feel dull and lackluster, but do exist in vast quantities to kill time.
    2) NPC AI is pretty bad overall (inept at driving, police system does not work, suicidal pedestrians etc)
    3) Locks big areas of the "open-world" unless certain quests are active

    Gameplay mechanics 7/10
    1) Gunplay/Combat they are okay, but nothing amazing, feels very RPG'y but that is to be expected from a story focussed game
    2) Game-balance: completely broken as of release, way too easy even on highest difficulty (this might change a lot)
    3) Lacks features to customize the PC while playing or your appartment/vehicles

    -Only 2 romances for main story is disappointment as well.
    -Completely useless V house which u can't even customize
    -Bugs, although it's not a big deal
    -Game is not challenging me at all (3rd diff level), boss fights are too easy
    -Main story is too linear, only in the end game will give us a real(illusion of) choice which can affect story
    -Endings killed any replayability for me because all my efforts doesn't matter at all
    -80% of skills are completely useless and don't make any difference at all
    -Crafting is no needed and takes too much recourses
    -No mini-games
    -Can't change hairstyle

    Game feels rushed and lacks a LOT of content, would not recommend to play without dlc or expansions.

    When it doesn't crash when loading (which is a lot), you get to experience a poorly optimised game.
    While pretty to look, the world feels hollow. NPC dialogue and interaction is limited and the city feels very empty and pretend.
    Police AI is woeful, popping in, poorly chasing, easy to lose. It feels very old in comparison to something with decent open world adversary AI such as

    A lot of graphical and immersion downgrades and not enough player choice in the main story when these are the things they were promoting.

    The combat has decent variety and features that should be in more games but it is let down by an AI that can be described as 'average' at the best of time and 'poor' at the worst. Just like with the graphical polish, polish in this area is lacking.

    Most missions (if you don't care about choice) are fairly interesting, and it really shows they actually put effort into them. (Bar some side missions)

    Expect all types of options/settings you would find in the latest Call of Duty for example, to be missing. No ADS toggle? No UI transparency options? Really? In a game about immersion?

Ждали 8 лет и вышло бл посредственно . Да, история хорошая , сюжет прописан кайф, но ощущается это так, словно ты летишь по нему на огромной скорости . Какого хрена ? Возможно обновления повлияют на это и добавят больше часов сюжета, но впечатления просто отвратительные . Ждать 8 лет и получить игру на 2-3 дня и не прикипеть к персонажам в принципе. Ожидал от вас большего , реальной революции не только в визуальном плане, но и в плане истриии. Ну , Ведьмака же не прошли до конца,,, . Да и наплевать, что кто-то не прошёл. Все, кто прошёл Ведьмака от и до, восхищаются этой игрой и возвращаются к ней до сих пор. Если cp77 не изменить в плане сюжетной составляющей, то про него забудут через месяц-другой.

Walk up to any NPC and the responses are things like: "Yes? Hi. What, you wanna new friend? Hola. Yeah? Whats up in the big world. Watch it, you'll swallow a fly." Who talks like that? There is absolutely no immersion when dealing with NPCs. Everyone seems to be so negative and hateful in game. Add some unique and dynamic conversations with random NPCs.

    On top of that, there's like 10 different pedestrians on the street. The re-use of assets is terrible and I keep wondering why I'm seeing the same NPC I just saw 15 seconds ago after I walk a half a block away the other way from them. There is nothing dynamic or unique about NPCs in this game, unless it's part of the main story.

    I'm really missing how dynamic, alive, and unique NPCs were in RDR2. They set a high bar, and CDPR has fallen far underneath it.

    The repeating "Hello?".... "Gunna be long?" and other 'waiting' dialog from Jackie during mission choices is really annoying. These are moments where I need to take care of things and could use a quick break, it gets kinda annoying. This is one of the more annoying aspects so far.

    I very much wish I could play Roach Race on the arcades in No Tell Motel.

    I don't like the radio station selection menu. I'd like to just be able to browse through selections on the go without having to stop to pick a station.

    Wow, just wow.

    We have waited 8 years, 4 delays and a massive hype build-up for this?

    Honestly just from technical perspective, this game is still in alpha and I can't go 10 meters without encountering 10 bugs. This game got delayed 4 TIMES and what we got is a showcase of how many bugs one can fit into a single game.

    This may change over time, but it's still unacceptable for a game delayed that many times and promises of a relativly smooth launch.

    But the main problem is the core gameplay and not the bugs!

    Let me clarify:

    -The story is linear with no decisions or consequences to your actions whatsoever (they even removed the RPG tag from the description in the library), meaning you CANNOT be the V you wanted to be like they promised.

    -The ending of the prologue was spoiled by the trailer, giving it no meaning and making it unimportant and forgetable, while the mid is well made and the ending is the best and most interesting part of the story.

    -The character creation lacks any depth and is what you would expect from a game from 8 years ago, options are very similar, no real cybernetics (like NPCs have), options for hair is decent I guess but it's still very shallow and again not what they promised us.

    -There is no things as barber shops, nail studios, etc. in the game meaning you can't change your appearance in the game in any way. This is a feature so many games have nowadays and they still are inept to implement it.

    -They promised us clothes wouldn't have any stats but I have never seen the 'Shoot n' Loot' principle this big in any other game. Basically you do your generic missions you've seen a thousand times in a thousand games, get x item with y better stat and comb through the maps side mission like a combine harvester.

    -Regarding the heavy reliance on stats leads to -again, what they promised us- no actual style or 'fashion of the future', this is because you always look like u fell into the basement of a painter and you just loot the stuff with the best stats and wear that and not what you would like to wear (and btw there is not a single good looking headgear in this game, change my mind).

    -Remember when they said they didn't want to overwhelm us with a map full of markers with side missions? Yeah guess what, they lied. Again. When I first opened the map i got bombarded with yellow little piss stains on my map of 'innovative' missions to play (more to that later)

    -The side missions -more so the gigs- are boring and repetitive. Go to point x, kill y amount of z people and go to the next one, do this for 2 days straight and you maybe have half of them done. We've seen this kinda stuff a hundred times in a hundres games, and most of them still did it better than Cyberpunk 2077.

    -The AI is a joke and basically non-existant. Traffic is buggy, non-responsive and they often block themselves, because guess what? The traffic AI sucks! No overtaking, no avoiding obstacles, no nothing, just cars that drive their given route and nothing more.

    -The enemy AI just charges you with no self preservation at all (Leeroy Jenkins would be proud). The AI is just plain dumb and has no reaction to enviroment, movement of you, your last seen position, anything really.

    -The police is the worst in any game I have ever seen in my entire life. If you do something they spawn 2 meters behind you, don't chase you and loose you after like 10 seconds, thats it. No bounty like NPCs have on them, no chase and no getting caught. It's a rushed, unfinished and irrelevant feature, that games did better 10 years ago.

    -Which lifepath you choose affects the first 10 minutes of the game and a few dialog options that's it. It's forgettable, unimportant and does not bring any replayability. Your character basically always turns out to be the same. They praised this feature and I had high expectations for it but was immensly dissapointed.

    -The minimap is zoomed in too close, meaning it is really easy to miss a turn at every intersection. When driving from point A to point B your eyes are pinned to the minimap and not on the world they designed.

    -The length of the game is a joke. The story can be done in 1-2 days without trying and most of the playtime comes from mindless farming of InNoVaTiVe sidequests.

    The only good things in this game are the story, graphics and the sound (while it is important to mention the copyright sound setting does not work properly).

    I am just impressed, that a game with so many promises and hype build-up turns out to be this repetitive, mediocre piece of garbage. It got delayed FOUR TIMES and it plays like a alpha version of an game from 5 years ago.

    My point is: The game is a huge step back in gaming. If you just look at gameplay and not the story it is truly an awful game. I was hoping they would deliver us a great game with many details and depth to it but what we got is a bad GTA

    I really feel like Cyberpunk is a game that should not be played the same way we have played other RPG's. In spite of the bugs, and crashes, Cyberpunk really is a special game of the likes we have never seen before. The longer I play Cyberpunk the more I have begun to realize this, (45 hours in so far). Initially I was not impressed with the graphics, or some of the mechanics involved -I really feel like Cyberpunk is a game that should not be played the same way we have played other RPG's.

    While the phone constantly ringing, messages, and shard system can get overwhelming, and I certainly could do without the cars for sale icons showing on the main map - I feel like having so many activities to take part in helps to build the world. If people are not reading everything, and are just powering through the quests they will not enjoy this game like those who are.

    I also feel like, the older, more mature people are real life, the more they will appreciate this game. The content here is very mature - and requires a certain level of imagination to understand and connect with. I am 47 years old, and I can say for certain if I had played this in my late teens or 20's I probably would not have "got it", and appreciate it like I do.

    I play on ps4 and it feels like on ps3, the resolution causes pain in my eyes. At every step, trees jump right out of the ground, people jump at each other. As a result, I got a piece of raw **** in which there is no desire to play, and dive into atmosphere. I hope that in the future you will tweak the game and bring it to an excellent quality on old consoles, otherwise it is unrealistic to play.

    Wasted potential. Its open world is like a beautiful plant. Fun to look at but other than that, it serves no purpose. Story too short. Writing is average. Your choices does not matter. NPC interactions, AI bad. Romanceable characters are good but their stories left a lot to be desired. This game needed more time in the oven.

Almost as bad as the crashes is how many features showcased were removed. From cybernetics to weapons, stuff is missing.

La historia está muy buena, la jugabilidad está bien, los gráficos son muy buenos, el mundo es de lo mejor creado hasta la fecha y sobre todo, lo mejor son las misiones secundarias, que son muy buenas y cada una podría ser poco su propio juego. Las misiones secundarias son sin duda, lo mejor del juego , como si fuese al igual que The Witcher 3 que también tenía unas misiones secundarias excelentes.

    When it comes to combat the guns feel good to shoot them melee weapon i can't say a lot about because i havent used them that much the only thing i hate about weapons and gear is that every 5 seconds you'll find a better weapon than what you have so you spent a long time in your inventory.

    The skill tree is huge and you can't unlock a lot of levels in each skill or tree because the game is kinda stingy when it comes to xp so i feel it takes me for ever to level up.

    The NPC daily routine is none existing the traffic is kinda acting weird in a lot of cases but when it comes to driving the cars feels ok and looks amazing from the outside and the inside.

    The atmosphere of the city is so beautiful you'll find yourself stopping every now and then to look at the amazing city especially if you have a hight end PC.

    If you're like me and minor bugs don't bother you that much i recommend this game for you other wise wait for more patches to com out.

The dialogue is okay and the story is exciting at points, with many pseudo fallout 4-esque 'choices' to make sprinkled throughout which mean very little. I see most reviewers saying you should wait until they fix the game before you buy it. I'd suggest not even doing that. The core issues within this game are not surface level graphical bugs and glitches. It's when you look a little bit deeper and see what's behind all those distractions, and that is that CD Projekt Red have entirely forgotten how to make an immersive game world for a player to inhabit.

I like the customization that you can do to your body and the skills tree. Night city is probably the best city in an open-world game, the atmosphere is just incredible and the soundtrack is top-notch.

    -Cons:
    The game lacks sometimes in AI, especially in police chases, but I think its minor and they can fix it with an update. I would also like to see more shops in the city like a barber shop, but I am sure they will add it later just like in The Witcher 3.

    -Conclusion:
    All in all I would give it 10/10 because all the cons the game has are small and fixable. While the pros of the game are so strong to give you a great experience on PC. I am sure this game will age like fine wine.

I can’t hack people at the moment, the civilians. I’m not sure that I can. Story reminds me of other games I’ve played. The graphics are on par with other titles. There are extras here and there.

    We’ll start with the graphics which are maxed on my machine. I’m seeing around 30FPS. My cyberdeck is old. I’m running an Nvidia 1060. I’m going to assume the issues ppl have are drivers, newer graphics cards, consoles, or confusion. But there is the configuration file issue. Google it.
    Graphics and System ram are vastly under-represented in the file. I only got about 5 extra frames a second from changing values. One thing that isn’t good is the fact that you can’t use 3rd person point of view.

    Story is entertaining and there are a lot of side quests. I don’t think you can go off script during a mission because there are doors that block you. But that’s the majority of games. There are usually only two ways to handle a situation. Brute force or paragon. Like many games before it, if you have the skill you can get more experience out of the mission with skill checks.

    Extras like TV in game are limited. Been nice if they would have linked to Youtube or something like letting you browse the net in game. There is a GTA style intranet. Driving is fun and the cars have fully detailed interiors. There are some scripted driving sequences.

    Guns are fun and you can practice the 2nd amendment. Weird coming from a Polish company. Think Call of Duty like everyone else has said. Lots of mods. The cyber stuff reminds me of System Shock 2 or E.Y.E Cybermancy. You also have lots of mods. You get bullet time while hacking stuff.

    If you like games such as Watchdogs and E.Y.E Cybermancy you’ll probably like this eventually when they get all the other parts in. It’s a no-mans-sky base game at the moment. They should post a roadmap because like many have said, it’s not a finished product. It’s no 10 but it’s no 0.

    I'm giving this an 8 based solely on the game itself, that is to say without considering the bugs and technical issues. I didn't encounter many personally, but it's been terrible for some people, especially on consoles. If I did take those issues into consideration, this would be closer to a 6/10, but hopefully CDPR will patch these out eventually and deliver a better experience for all.I'm giving this an 8 based solely on the game itself, that is to say without considering the bugs and technical issues.

    Cyberpunk 2077 is a pretty good game thanks to its great cast of characters, fantastic narrative, and extremely fun gameplay systems. It also functions as a great RPG, offering many interesting choices and side missions along the way (Although I do agree that it does start out pretty slow). Not to mention how they absolutely nailed the layout and visuals of Night City itself! Don't let the anger (albeit somewhat justified, considering how they just overhyped the hell out of this game) fool you. This is a fantastic game with lots of quality content within it. I'd also like to point out that, despite my frustrations in the next paragraph, there ARE some pretty cool chance encounters and oddities to stumble upon throughout the city (Funny conversations, gang shootouts, NPCs playing music or preaching, etc.)

    Where this game fails for me is AI behaviour and the promises of a living, breathing open world. Night City may be fun to navigate and it's very easy to get lost in all the neon lights and just the general vibe, but it certainly doesn't feel ALIVE. It feels a lot closer to Novigrad from the Witcher 3, but that doesn't work as well here since the open world seems to be taking more notes from games like GTA 5 (or at least, trying to). Not to mention how the AI just doesn't do... well anything. They drive in straight lines and only walk or run away when you shoot. Finally, the police system is genuinely one of the worst I've ever seen in a game like this. They just spawn around you the second you commit a crime! This aspect of the game absolutely NEEDS to be reworked.

    I'd also like to mention how the driving, although fun and functional, CAN leave a lot to be desired in terms of responsive, despite how cool a lot of the vehicles are. There are also a lot of QOL issues that need to be addressed (Crouch button is also skip button, map doesn't zoom out when driving fast, no drag and drop, can't close map by pressing map button, etc).

    All in all, a pretty fun game being pulled down by severe technical issues and excessive hype. If you're still not sure about this game, are playing on lower-end consoles, or really do mind the current jankiness, hold out for 2-3 more months. Otherwise, there's no reason not to give this game a shot, it's simply a great time!

    Buggy and with underdeveloped/unbalanced game systems, this game is fun, but broken. And it's definitely not an RPG.

    Certain skills, like Cold Blood, Engineering, and Athletics are either obfuscated or completely unbalanced. It took hours of experimentation and online investigation to figure out, for example, that Cold Blood requires a perk to increase its xp (the only skill requiring a perk), but also that activating the perk isn't enough, you have to kill enemies while the perk is active. Using tech weapons is supposed to increase engineering xp, but it turns out you only get the engineering xp if you shoot enemies through walls. Kind of an important caveat. Athletics is not balanced to gameplay at all. The skill description says running, jumping, etc will increase your xp, but this is a lie. Athletics xp gain is tied to stamina drain, which is an important distinction since many skills reduce or remove stamina usage, making the already abysmally low rate of athletics skill gain entirely null. This is just bad design. I had to set up an auto-clicker to let my character jump for 9 hours straight, to drain enough stamina to only gain 3 levels in athletics. That is on top of the 12 hours I've spent actually playing the game, running around, etc. Somebody somewhere had to move a decimal point, because it's not right.

    Speaking of bad design, this game was heavily, heavily marketed as an RPG. It was based on a tabletop RPG. This game is not an RPG, which I would have known had I been following Cyberpunk news closely, as apparently they stealthily switched the description a while back to action-adventure. Just one aspect of the gross, deceptive marketing CDPR used for this game. They deliberately hid the poor performance on consoles by disallowing review copies. They also knew how buggy and unpolished the game was prior to release, which is why they only let reviewers use B-roll and trailer footage in their reviews. A lot of folks have reported a lot of bugs. The majority I've run into have been floating objects or dropped items clipping into the ground and becoming impossible to collect. Not that I need to, because there is already way too much in the world to collect.

    This game has one of those looter-shooter loot system designs. The kinds with hundreds of identical weapons that get ever-so-slightly, incrementally better as you increase in level. I hate this type of game. I'm definitely of the camp that likes weapon systems in games like Dark Souls or Fallout 4. These games have a variety of weapons, but the weapons have unique move sets or abilities and can be improved over time. It is a system that gives meaning to choice and to play style, an aspect of RPGs. Cyberpunk does have a crafting system, but it's largely useless for upgrading your gear. This is another part of the game that just doesn't feel balanced at all. The investment of resources into upgrading weapons is so heavy, especially if the weapons are legendary and require legendary components, that you're better off just waiting a few levels and either finding a new weapon, or crafting one if you're lucky enough to have found a crafting schematic. And really, you can only craft those good weapons if you've heavily invested permanently allocated attribute points into technical skill so you can buy the required perks. The investment just isn't worth it, which is an aspect that just casts a pall over the whole experience.

    I've had to give up on even pretending this is a role playing game. You get a character creator in this game because it checks off a box that idiots like me look for when purchasing a game. I spent hours obsessing over which start I should pick, wondering how it would affect the game. It didn't. Character origins basically give you a few extra dialogue choices, but I have seen no impact on game play. Most of the Nomad dialogue choices I've made have basically boiled down to my character saying "I'm a nomad, I can help you out with this," and the NPC responding "No, thanks." Sweet. And this brings me back to the loot system, which adds extra salt to the wounds. I wanted to make a cool Nomad merc, but because I'm lacking the components and level to upgrade the cool legendary armor I found, my cool-under-pressure nomad solo is wearing a woman's kimono top and cut-off shorts, because their armor rating is like double my legendary, unique Rockerboy's Vest. I hate this.

    I wanted to experience the world of Cyberpunk. My friends are in to tabletop games, but not really the genre. I thought this game would be a way to do so. The world is empty, with no interactions possible outside of driving, killing, and shopping. In a way, I guess that's what the world of Cyberpunk is supposed to be, but it wouldn't have killed them to throw in some mini games or something. Night City is beautiful, but I prefer Yakuza 0's Kamurocho.

    Cyberpunk 2077 shines in its characters, quests, and art direction. Otherwise, it's skippable. 5/10.

    Well... about 20 hours into the game... here is my thoughts ...

    Story - 9/10 I am really enjoying the story, i think this is where the experience shines, much attention to detail went into these characters and fleshing them out, however i do feel like there is some things missed by not having the starting choices really effect your outcome aside from some different dialog choices
    Well... about 20 hours into the game... here is my thoughts ...

    Story - 9/10

    I am really enjoying the story, i think this is where the experience shines, much attention to detail went into these characters and fleshing them out, however i do feel like there is some things missed by not having the starting choices really effect your outcome aside from some different dialog choices under that starting point, as well as Clothes etc.. but i could be wrong here, that's just what i have witnessed so far 20 hours in.

    Graphics - 8/10

    I think the graphics are stellar but i do feel that this may be the new Crysis for the RTX cards, I have a 2070 RTX and i can't even get 60 fps with Ray Tracing disabled and DLSS Disabled.. i have to at least put DLSS to Auto or Quality to get 50-60fps .. so perhaps some optimizing is required here.. but overall i have seen this game on full, and its breathtaking.. for me it loses some points because even with ray tracing off i can't really play a solid 60fps with DLSS turned off.

    Controls - 7/10

    I think these could be fleshed out more, we need a walk function... driving could be tightened up ... there's a few things here, gets a 7 from me...

    Artificial Intelligence - 6/10

    I think some things are broken here, mainly... Police... they are just absolutely busted, they don't chase you like in GTAV, they simply just spawn out of thin air and start attacking you, and sometimes when you don't even provoke it, they come in for the kill... this needs to be hugely tightened up .. but for the most part ... if you avoid crimes... you'll be ok.

    Overall Score - 7/10

    With its current version, and the amount of glitches i have experienced, although the game is overall fun and i am having a blast with it ! the bugs are immersion breaking... and they need to be fixed and sorted... and the game better optimized, i am excited to see what the developer does in January - February as promised .. and where they end up , i will change my review at that point and update it. ! but for now.. ill keep enjoying what i can play now.

I pingpong on something next to me and fall all the way down and die. Load. I'm standing in front of the guys with tons of stuff I have to kill and collect their stuff and all the other things again.

    Awful bug-ridden game, and you know they're going to spend the next six months fixing half the bugs and every article written about it will be about how stunning and brave they are for admitting to their faults and 'overcoming' them, pushing for a second surge of sales.

The skill trees are very organized and offer a lot of avenues to tweak your V. My only gripes are that the performance is so bad unless you tweak a bunch of things in the files. A couple bugs like a floating car (nothing immersion breaking) and one crash so far after loading a save after dying. But so far it's been a great game. Maybe wait a month or so so that the kinks get ironed out on pc. Once they get the performance and bugs settled it's definitely a 10/10 for me. Expand

Action part is not ideal is not a strong part of the game. But this is normal for story-based ARPG. And the choice of weapons is huge, which is good.
    Many people write bad review based on two reasons: glitches (which is normal for day 1, they all will be solved taking into account CDPR team size), and bad performance on old consoles (c’mon, this consoles were made 7 years ago, just grab a new one or a pc).

    The best metaphor for Cyberpunk 2077 is Johnny Silverhand himself. A messiah, a mix of Kurt Cobain and Che Guevara, a talented singer who loves to shape his own legend and has a charming personality but loses the struggle with his own demons. The same goes for the game. It tells a great story and forced me to ask myself difficult questions, but many of its gameplay mechanics do not evolve and its technical state upon release was abysmal. Cyberpunk’s true hero is not a person, but Night City – a vibrant, living creature of great diversity. The beauty of the metropolis is striking. [01/2021, p.22]

    Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the most disturbing and mind-blowing RPGs in history, where every decision has a deep impact on our trail. CD Projekt RED tosses us to the center of a city filled with disgusting delights where every character deserves our attention in an immersive experience and overall, very rewarding. From the sarcastic and shadowy tone imposed by the countless scenes in the game, to the flexibility we have on the choices to face every situation that is presented, Night City is truly memorable. It’s a shame that the countless bugs spoil or diminish the impact of some resounding moments, but we are without a question, in the presence of one of the best games in 2020.

    Measured against the extreme expectations, Cyberpunk 2077 can't fulfill any of them. But all in all, despite the countless small weaknesses and inconsistences, with interesting characters, great story and dialogues or the freedom concerning gameplay, CD Projekt delivers a unique and great RPG that every fan of the genre needs to play.
