    Cyberpunk doesn’t bring anything new to the table as far as the RPG genre goes, it plays as a mix between Fallout and Borderlands. Since Cyberpunk is an FPS at heart, its needs solid gunplay, which it has. Guns feel good and combat is somewhat smooth, though subpar AI and the lack of a true cover system means fights generally delve quickly into brawls rather than tactical combat.Cyberpunk doesn’t bring anything new to the table as far as the RPG genre goes, it plays as a mix between Fallout and Borderlands. Since Cyberpunk is an FPS at heart, its needs solid gunplay, which it has. Guns feel good and combat is somewhat smooth, though subpar AI and the lack of a true cover system means fights generally delve quickly into brawls rather than tactical combat. Quickhacks add something to combat, though in the early game, not a lot – and probably not a lot without investment. Fallout elements come in the form dialogue trees and picking up EVERYTHING you see, and Borderlands elements from the many guns that drop. With no access to quick menus, you’ll be doing a lot of game pausing to check for stats and minor 1% upgrades. Oh, and with no glamour system, you’re going to be wearing ugly gear just because of the raw stats.

    As for the RPG elements, Cyberpunk seems to follow most RPG dialogue choices – except you get the strange feeling of being on rails. There’s a lot of expanded dialogue which gives more exposition but only one choice which progresses the story. During missions there are a few optional objectives, though how much they change the way missions unfold remains to be seen.

    Now on to the negatives. There’s a lot. The first negative you’ll come across is the character creator. It’s woeful. People are so focused on CDPR's genital obsession they’re overlooking how poor the character creation is. First of all, there’s a green tint lighting which means your V will inevitably look different in-game. Secondly, options rather than sliders. Every character creator needs sliders in 2020. Nobody is expecting BDO levels of customization but Cyberpunk's is as basic as it gets – and there’s no altering your character after creation which is a cardinal sin.

    Second negative is the driving. You’ll be doing a lot of it. It’s bad. Feels terrible. Thirdly, manual saves in games is so outdated, I shouldn’t need to open my pause menu everytime I want to do something. It should quick save on literally everything you do, pick up a rare weapon? Should quicksave. Start a mission? Should quicksave. Quite frankly the checkpoint system is atrocious. And finally the bugs. Oh dear god the bugs. In 8 ours of gameplay I’ve had 3 hard crashes, 2 soft crashes which required restarts, 6 video recorded bugs I’ve sent to friends, unresponsive AI, menus not working and so on.

    Easily the biggest letdown of the decade. We waited almost 8 years for what we expected would be a wonderful open-world shooter set in a sprawling futuristic city with the scale and detail of The Witcher 3.

    Beyond the stuff like framerate drops and texture bugs that can be fixed with updates. The game simply isn't very good, the combat is sluggish and all the guns feel as though they have no weight to them, and the enemies don't even react to being shot. Enemy AI is idiotic at most times and will just stand there while you shoot them. The driving is painful and feels like your steering a frictionless brick down a freshly waxed hallway, I know that didn't make sense. The game feels like a really bizarre mix of Grand Theft Auto and Borderlands, but not in a good way. Not to mention that the gamma settings, just don't work? I don't understand why, there are times when the brightness is so high that you are blinded, and times when it is so dark you literally can't see anything. Often in the middle of a shoot out as well and changing the game's gamma settings does nothing.

    There is no way that this game was in development for nearly 8 years and was released in this state, I wouldn't be surprised if we find out that they didn't actually start the game's development until after the E3 Keanu Reeves thing and that was them trying to hype it up again. This game simply feels very rushed and unfinished.    … Expand

    It breaks my heart to say this but even if the game did not have any bugs and was well optimized for consoles, the game on its own is a step back in terms of story and open world. Cdpr intentionally hyped this game out of oblivion and they are to blame for there downright false marketing. I can't even run this game well on medium and I have a pretty beefy pc.

    I find this game unplayable on the Xbox one s as of dec.11. The frame rate is very low, which makes moving the camera aroundvery disorienting. The game has this ugly upgrainy and blurry look to it. The graphics are reminiscent of ps2 games. Objects pop into view all of a sudden. This is not worth the $60 I paid for. Do not buy this game on consoles!

    I am a person who did not expect this game and, in principle, am not a fan. They gave me the game and decided to play right away. Playing for 2 days, I did not notice any work done at all for 7 years.

    -The music is incredible.
    -Detailing the world, nudity and, in principle, everything is good. I was dumbfounded by what breast physics they did.
    -Hype is impressive
    -The voice acting in both English and Russian is excellent. Russian, in my opinion, is better, since the vocabulary of abusive words in Russians is richer.

    Minuses:
    - optimization and bags Half of day I spend in settings. I’ve got a lot of bags through the game. - Disgusting game mechanics: the menu-interface is just **** weapon selection system; system of constant selection of permanent **** from the floor; inconvenient resale, etc.(a lot of bad mechanics) -Car driving: no comments. Physics goodbye. - If u play in hard level u can die - Not good shooting and hacking - Stealth doesn’t work - A lot of nudity on banners, but in fact u can try something only with two prostitutes and they look really bad. And sex scenes kind of suck... - A lot of activities, but they mostly boring or just useless. And what I expected CD project probably delete from the game. Only extra missions (some of them) are good. - (personal) I don’t like the style of cyberpunk. I don’t like this city. I don’t wanna stay there. I expected more, but in the end they made mediocre (but playable) and I hope I like it still, but at the moment it seems to me that Watch Dogs Legion is more cyberpunk than Cyberpunk itself.

    - V is no Geralt, I can say that much
    - Horrible UI and HUD-design
    - Bad writing
    - Lackluster wordbuilding
    - Serious rendering issues, mostly textures
    - No minigames, very few vendors, no restaurants, sewers, buildings you can actually enter, cant see a movie, do other activities like you would expect from an open world game touted as an immersive next gen experience. The game is so hollow, it is basically a on rails shooter, where they spent all their energy on the main story.

    I have never ever refunded a game, not even Assassins Creed Unity after launch. I will try to refund this game. This game is unplayable, which is insane if you consider a 7 year development phase, millions of dollars spent and an actual talented staff of programmers and game designers.

Not only that, the numerous graphical bugs that I've encountered (ie; at certain points the game more closely resembling a DOOM wad than a modern AAA title, I very much hope that this game will, in the future, be patched into a more playable product.

I'll preface this by saying I've been an enormous fan of CDPR and Cyberpunk for many years and it sucks to be this disappointed with something I was so excited for.

    The critics giving this anything over a 7 were very obviously paid. This is easily the buggiest game I have ever played and I'm shocked it passed certification to release, let alone came from a studio that is known for caring about the quality of their games (queue 'not very polished for a Polish game' joke). Within an hour of play I had hit 6 different progression blocking bugs ("fixed" by rebooting the game), countless graphical/loading bugs, and was blown away by how shallow the game was. After a couple more hours of play I have still seen nothing special about this game, it is not the "most fascinating city in videogame history so far" as IGN puts it, and it does not raise the bar in any way. The prologue we were promised as a Street Kid, Corpo, or Nomad literally lasts 5 minutes. The AI is nearly nonexistent. Interact with NPCs for a second and the simulation crumbles around you. There is no RPG here. Cyberpunk runs, looks, and plays like a game that came out in the year 2000. Getting this to run well on PC is a crap shoot: you either get lucky and have no problems or it's a balancing act of checking Reddit and asking your friends what settings worked for them. Worst of all, the marketing and communication surrounding this game over the years has been nothing but deceitful. They promised some incredible features up until launch day and failed to deliver nearly all of them. This wasn't an understandable issue of "changes during development", but CDPR lying to its fans until launch day. This was so obviously a failure on the part of management/production and it makes me incredibly sad and angry that this is what we waited for. Their project scope was sky high and it looks as if they cut back on nearly all levels. In the end I'm left wondering, "What were they even *doing* for the past 8 years?" Tweeting?

    Because some of what I just shared can be ignored as the angry ramblings of an emotional fan, here are some of the biggest issues and bugs that I've seen at launch:

    - Lifeless AI. There's nothing hand crafted about the NPCs, they don't behave in interesting ways, they don't have their own "schedules" or plans as advertised. Show the slightest bit of aggression or fire at enemies nearby and they'll forever stay in a crouched, cowering animation. Literally forever, they don't snap out of it even after they've been saved from gang members or the threat is neutralized. Driving AI is nowhere to be seen as well. Leave your car in the middle or even the side of the street and traffic is backed up for miles. NPCs will stop at green stoplights and never start driving again. This is classically seen in games in Alpha or Beta stages but at release? That shouldn't happen.

    [Link omitted per site rules]

    - Graphical issues. My character is always bald when looking in a mirror, ignoring all hair and clothing. Most mirrors are completely broken, displaying a black box. Character detail is lacking and blurry. LOD pop-in and graphical glitches are everywhere. Placeholder DEBUG text can literally be seen everywhere in the game.

    [Link omitted per site rules]

    - Next to no character customization (on both personality and visual levels). Your V will look and act essentially the same as everyone else's V. Cyberpunk promised much more than this. Tattoo, limb, body enhancements... everything is either lacking or missing entirely.

    - Too many missing quality of life features to list, please see the following thread:
    [Link omitted per site rules]
    Cyberpunk literally needed another 6 months to a year of dev time and that still wouldn't fix the missing features and content that were advertised. They knew this was coming and didn't let reviewers use their own gameplay footage before launch to minimize losses. CDPR has absolutely tarnished their reputation, but I'm sure they'll support the game for years to come. At the moment though I would not recommend this game in the slightest and I hope they take this seriously.    … Expand

    Besides the unplayable console versions (which warrants a 0, let alone a 4) everything about Cyberpunk is lackluster outside of Missions. Shallow open world design with zero interactivity, laughable AI and NPC reaction in general, useless LifePaths and player choice, lacking customization and bland skill trees leaves the player a really sour taste, after the hype starts to fade.

    - A huge number of bugs. Most bugs don't affect the passage of the game in any way. For example: appearing NPCs, graphical bugs, bugs in dialogs. But such bugs appeared three times, after which it was impossible to continue the game further. You try not to notice them because of the great plot, but at some point they become too annoying.
    - Open world. I didn't had no hopes on the game that the open world would be like in GTA5 or RDR2. But what I saw plunged me into despair. NPCs don't react in any way to your actions. You can literally walk through them and nothing will happen.
    - Combat system. It sucks. Especially close combat, from which you do not feel any impact.
    - The game is very beautiful graphically. But you can’t appreciate it as you drive through narrow streets and crash into half of the cars.

    Perhaps after 72 patches the game will be normal. But such a raw product was not worth producing.    … Expand

    I'm not gonna give this game a 1/10 because I truly believe that there's a good game hidden under this layer of **** but it needs a lot of work. Any other game studio would've been crucified for releasing a game in this state.    … Expand

    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.
