    This 10 just for level up meta-score. I think this game have a lot of real problems, but still love it. Perfect storyline, amazing atmosphere, pretty good picture (on PC).
    We need yo give it second chance.

    I play Cyberpunk after 1.0.4. version. I spot only 2 minor bugs. I play at PC with Nvidia 980Ti GPU and is OK. I never like so much RPG, but i think Cyberpunk is addictive. Very good main story, not boring secondary quest. Im gratefull for good game.

    I play on an old 1050 Ti, set my settings to minimum right away and that's enough for me. I enjoy the game, the plot, the world, not the graphics. Thanks for the great game.

    Don't let anyone tell you which ones, how or when to play, YES: this game has bugs (3 in my 80 hours of play so far) but even with this: it's still the best game created in video game history so far.

Now, as a disclaimer (and insight into my subjective opinion), some of my favorite games have been bethesda games, specifically Fallout: New Vegas and Skyrim. So maybe i have a stockholm syndrome with bugs, but they don't bother me that much. What I am trying to say here is that bugs are not fun, but If there is a well designed game beneath those bugs, I am willing to look past it. Its much harder to change a games core design rather than patch bugs. Now getting on to the review.

    Cyberpunk is a very very impressive game, with some very noticeable, but serviceable issues. Let's start with the most glaring issues:

    - Ai is lacking. Most noticeably for me is the police AI, which spawns around you when you get stars, and wont chase you past a few blocks. Makes me believe that there is no driving AI.

    - Bugs. Most common in my playthough have been NPC's walking through objects/general collision failure. Additionally, One time I got stuck in geometry and had to load a save a few minutes earlier, and I have had one crash to desktop with approx. 25 hours played.

    -Performance. I have a 1080 TI, 16 gb of ram, a I7 8700k, and a 3440x1440 ultrawide monitor. Generally, I have to run the game on medium to reach even 50 fps average. This is not well optimized.

    Now onto what I deem to be the good parts of the game that make it a 9/10 regardless for me.

    - Jaw-dropping world-design. Honestly, I really don't get the complaints about how the city feels empty. The sidewalks are constantly bustling with NPCs, and the architecture of night city is so well thought out and feels so believable that I have spent hours traversing the city on foot. It feels to me like a real dystopian city that could be lived in.

    - Characters and story-telling. I couldn't engage with the witcher 3, but I could appreciate how good of a game it was through its story and characters. Same deal with Cyberpunk. The characters are believeable, they feel human, and you get attached. The story is well thought out and makes for an enjoyable RPG experience.

    -Gameplay. This might be a controversial one, But I like the gameplay in Cyberpunk. When I compare this game to something in my head, I tend to compare it to Deus Ex or Fallout. And I believe it supercedes either game vastly in the breadth of its character design (stat distribution) and just general design of core gameplay loop.

    -Gameplay Pt 2. Like Deus Ex, Cyberpunk gives you a lot of freedom in how you approach your problems. Do you wanna hack your enemies to commit suicide and turn all enemy turrets friendly? Do you want to stealth through missions without alerting anyone? Want to go hog wild and beat everyone in visible sight to death with your cybernetic gorilla arms? Its all possible, and this is the part that will most likely keep me playing even after I complete it.

    -Graphics. As mentioned before I am running a 1080 Ti with 16 gb of Ram and a i7-8700k at 3440x1440. So with all of this I generally prefer a higher framerate than the most minute improvements in graphics, and I can tell you that even on medium or even low, the game world looks absolutely stunning. There are times where I just stop driving or whatever I'm doing just to admire the graphical fidelity and environmental detiail.

    -Personal Bias? I love the genre of cyberpunk, and all the critiques it holds of our modern society. So this is why I dont understand when people say that this game isn't on brand or faithful to the genre. There's a line early on about how full prisons are, a notable jab at current insitutions. In addition many of the commericials and satire in the game tend to remind me of cyberpunk novels like that of snowcrash. I can't really comment on what cyberpunk really has to say until I finish the game, but I am satisfied with what is has said so far, in regards to the current systems we live under.

    Overall, I really love cyberpunk. The bugs aren't that bad. Having to play on low doesn't really bother me because the game still looks great. The story is engaging and the characters make you want to care about them. The core gameplay loop may be a lil week at the beginning, but as with any other RPG, once you get your build rolling, everything opens ups. I've been getting lost in the world, and I suggest you do too.

    One final note: I don't understand the comparisons between this game and GTA. This is an open-world RPG in the vein of the Witcher, fallout, or deus ex. And I think it nails the feeling of those games perfectly in a cyberpunk world. This game perfectly meets my expectations, and those were that it would be great.

    While the shooter is fun, The story is all over the place,
    Name dropping is something really common while you barely get to know the figures behind the names and relate to them.
    and then there's bugs, Oh there are so many of them.
    Feels like they should've delayed it to create a somewhat playable experience.

    I find that the game is very entertaining. There are some aspects of the game that are unfortunate like the fact you cant change your hairstyle and facial hair later in the game via a barber of some sorts. Graphics wise i had no issues besides needing to downgrade to 2560*1080 from my screensize of 3440*1440. but i wanted to achieve 60fps so had to make that choice + high settings.I find that the game is very entertaining.

    I played for almost 10 hours in Cyberpunk 2077, my impressions:

    - During this time, I caught 2-3 bugs and 1 crash on a PC (gtx 1660ti + ssd) - The game looks divine on PC, even at medium or low-medium settings, even without RTX, I have medium-high and 60 fps. - The main plot is interesting - drama, action, betrayal, intrigue, etc., everything is like in Indian films (in a good way).

    - The main plot is interesting - drama, action, betrayal, intrigue, etc., everything is like in Indian films (in a good way).
    - I liked the shooter part of the game, shooting a weapon feels like shooting from cyberpunk cannons, even if it's a pistol.
    - The game looks like a board game with probabilities, for example, in order to kill with headshots, you need to pump a special skill to increase the probability of a kill with a headshot.
    - Driving and cars - something a little better than in GTA 5, in my opinion.
    - Training at the beginning of the game is full of guano, I have not met such a dull one for a long time.

    The game was a success, most likely to please even those who are not fans of the cyberpunk setting.

    Let me start with the basics first and solve an all important question. Did Cyberpunk 2077 live up to the all the hype and buzz its devs created? The simple answer to that, is a resounding No and I'll explain why in a bit so bear with me.
    First things first, the game's quite good and very accessible from a controls standpoint. That's not to say that the controls are a cakewalk, they certainly have a learning curve and it doesn't take long to get into grips with and that's a plus. I sank around 56 hours into the game since release day and that contains 2 20 hour playthroughs(with breaks here and there of course) on day 1 and day 2 and a 16 hour playthrough on day 3, so i think I'm more than knowledgeable enough to talk about the game's shortcomings.
    One very evident thing i noticed and that hasn't been fixed yet is the wide assortment of bugs featured in the game. Characters walking through objects and elevators, random hitches and performance drops here and there occurring all too frequently and making the experience far less enjoyable, extremely rare graphical glitches in certain areas and so on. It is unacceptable launching a game in this state. People brush it off simply because it was developed by CDPR but it really shouldn't get a free pass like that, had it been another developer people would be all over them.
    With these things been said, I want to get into the nitty gritty things in the game as soon as possible so I don't make this review a full on essay. The story is quite good, it won't raise the bar or reinvent the wheel in terms of storytelling and voice acting but that didn't stop it from being a good cyberpunk story set in the near future for me and it manages to capture that essence or feeling quite well, i have to warn you though, it does tend to get a fair bit generic at certain points so don't go in expecting it to "blow your socks off". Next is the soundtrack and ambiance which along with the visuals can make the game feel utterly realistic and somewhat atmospheric in specific areas, especially at night with all that neon and street lights going on creating an almost surreal and gorgeous looking game, one with a soundtrack that tends to capture that cyberpunk aesthetic quite well and is further amplified by a gorgeous art style that adds to the experience and immersion on offer in the game.
    Now, while the open world looks gorgeous that does come at a catch, the world feels empty and somewhat barren in a lot of areas and no I'm not talking about the suburban areas and areas found in the desert region of the map, I'm talking about areas that normally should be crowded and not just during the day but also at night, areas such as the City Center for instance which should be teeming with life, but it isn't.
    Gameplay is great but areas such as driving, fighting and gunplay look like they need a lot of work and I mean a LOT of work. Gunplay looks barebones with guns barely having any kick to them and giving that feeling that you're shooting nerf guns and not actual weapons since they lack the "oomph" you would get even in guns found in "ancient" games like 2010's Cod: Black Ops which wasn't realistic by any sense of the imagination but the gunplay felt satisfying and each gun felt unique in its own way. You won't get that with cyberpunk. In terms of fighting I'll make it short, melee fighting is very basic, punching enemies makes you feel like you're punching a mannequin since all you get is a basic reaction or lack thereof from the enemy you hit and ragdoll physics are completely absent. Finally driving, I'll just say driving feels like Watch Dogs and don't get me started on that game and how unresponsive its driving was. Each vehicle, regardless if it was a basic car, a motorcycle or an expensive luxury vehicle lacked any unique characteristics when it comes to responsiveness and overall sense of speed. Using a very simple description, "It's like driving a boat, not a car". With regards to combat however, the various ways you can hack one or multiple enemies at once and make them do all sorts of things like shoot themselves or jam their guns makes combat a lot more enjoyable.
    The wide variety of cybernetic augmentations and character customisation add immense replay value to the game and the various dialog trees which can make a certain conversation turn in one way or another makes conversations more enjoyable even though they feel useless in some situations. There's a wide assortment of skills, aptly called perks to specialise in making your character feel unique and suitable to your preferred playstyle some of them felt completely useless though and even though I chose some of them, there are certain perks that didn't really do anything for me.
    All in all, Cyberpunk 2077 is a really good game but it's certainly not the revolutionary rpg CDPR hyped it up to be. It's got it's ups, but at the same time it's got its downs(both mild and severe) however that didn't stop from being enjoyable.

    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.
