    Holy crap did we get lied to. Main story is fine, if it weren't for the countless bugs and horrendous optimization. But the worst part is that the world is just so empty. Sure it looks pretty, but there is nothing beyond the surface. This might as well be no man's sky 2.

    [original]

    Mediocre gunplay, terrible driving experience, below average storyline, and characterless in-game inhabitants behaviour. Once again, all the hype surrounding this game's claim of "next-gen FPSRPG" raised expectations beyond what was delivered. One can tell the engine used was developed in the 2010s; The bugs and slow UI are a tell, not to mention it's AI's shameful arcade-like responses (selecting a harder difficulty only raises the AI's damage and HP, not their intelligence)

    ---

    TL;DR: This is a playable previous-gen arcade shooter RPG. Nothing new, only average gameplay and old tech. A mix between GTA 5 and Deux-Ex without achieving any of the good points of those games. Give it a pass, you won't miss much.    … Expand

    Outdated mechanics such as the leveling system, the world doesn't feel alive (NPC behavior is a big regression from most big budget open world games of the last years, especially if we look at RDR2), the character creator isn't nearly as good as it was promised, the customization is pretty limited (you can't even cut your hair).

    The game is mainly an extended cutscene where your press the contextual button to advance and occasionally have two dialogue choices that matter. Aside from that, every positive thing about this game is broken by bugs.

    The atmosphere by floating phones, the stealth by cameras that turn on on their own in spite of being hacked, people seeing through cover, bodies ragdolling and landing other places than where you put them, combat by your quickhacks not working for no reason, the graphics by horrible optimization, and RELOADING by CONTROLS BEING RESET TO DEFAULT.

    The design mentality has not moved beyond the year the game started production and the fact that there is such a tremendous disparity between what the consumer thinks of the game and what the critics think of the game is indicative that the critics are not to be trusted. The score would have been higher if it wasn't because you should never give more than 20 bucks for a video game and this one claimed to be worth 60.    … Expand

    Awful AI, boring and broken combat, totally forgettable characters, rudimentary dialog choices.
    Not to mention the copious amount of technical problems which led to many reloads and restarts to be able to move forward.
    But even despite the technical issues the game is just not good.
    Over promised and under delivered in basically every aspect of the game, besides the art style.

    “Cari giocatori, prima di tutto vorremmo iniziare scusandoci per non aver mostrato il gioco su console base old-gen prima della sua uscita e, di conseguenza, non avervi permesso di prendere una decisione più informata sul vostro acquisto“. Senza giri di parole, si è poi aggiunto: “Avremmo dovuto prestare maggiore attenzione a farlo funzionare meglio su PS4 e Xbox One“.

    It's very clear this game was released unfinished. Tons of bugs and glitches that are so obvious and easily found, that it's clear the developers did not finish the game. I'd wait until a few major patches before throwing $60 down the drain for an overhyped game that took 8 years to develop.

    Well, what to start with...
    I won a pre-order of this game in a contest, I put a lot of effort into achieving the goal, and in the end, well, I received a graphics tech demo and a meme base.
    I'm a positive guy, when I started a game and encountered my first batch of glitches I thought: maybe it's because it's too early and day 1 patch shall fix this, otherwise bugs are minor for me,    Well, what to start with...

    I'm a positive guy, when I started a game and encountered my first batch of glitches I thought: maybe it's because it's too early and day 1 patch shall fix this, otherwise bugs are minor for me, being a graphics programmer myself and putting a lot of time into studying it I encountered those quite often.
    But as I progressed through the game it was starting to remind me more of a glass, filled with gameplay, graphical and logical bugs and glitches; zombie hands, sun switching on and off, transparency effects glitching out, stealth break through walls (notice meter would not stop), etc.
    I tried to stay strong, because RPG aspect stayed quite good in first two parts at least, glitches would make nothing but a memes, but then, something made me completely change my mind and made me regret wasting my time with this.

    This was the last drop for my patience and I shut down the game. I looked into relations list...
    I know, this is a bit of spoilers, but, I wanted to transfer myself into game, I wanted to embrace of what's going to become of me, I look androgynously in real life, being male, so I chose female body and made everything look similar and male voice. And then I discovered there's no chance of getting romance with any girl... This makes me feel depressed, I don't want to recreate character with female voice or a male one, that would break the effect.

    From that point continuation of the game feels emotionless, I could go shoot in any other game and 'twould be better, thief simulator aspect failed too, and from unaware NPCs turned out to be retarded.

    Economy on test groups didn't pay off, never repeat that mistake, CDPR.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. To being with I am playing on PC, Max settings, 3440x1440, no RT. Not very high FPS (~45-50), but game is smooth. Bought the game directly from GOG/CDPR, but paid only £21 (check in google how).
    I am fan of the CDPR as a company (no DRM approach) and fan of their other games (Witcher series), so it is hard to slam them with negative review, but they certainly deserve one.
    How did I arrive with 4/10 score? Well I think graphics/design (1), music/sounds/voice acting (2), whole lore/idea of the game (3) and amount of content (4) are positives. However, there are a lot of negatives - cars (handling and modifications) (5), romance/character relationship/story-line choices (6), content quality (7), attention to the details (8), game breaking issues with quests (9) and I just add rest as "other" (10), but there are multiple issues like AI problems, logic, consistency and big one which I even discounting for this - glitches and bugs. Why am I discounting them? Because they will be fixed and because they don't fundamentally undermine the game story.
    I could be harsher on the score if I wanted to, but I am trying to keep my review balanced and only focused on fundamental issues with the game design which simply cannot be "bug fixed", but will require at very least DLCs, perhaps won't be fixed at all.
    (spoilers below)
    To start with I started playing the game at max difficulty, but gradually reduced it due to "bullet sponge" effect where you have to drop 10 mags to kill single enemy shooting exclusively head-shots. Sadly, I am playing game on easy now - just feels more natural (I tend to play all games on hardest when possible). After 2 hours of game play I actually wanted to delete the game and refund, but thought maybe I should give little bit more time. I thought for myself maybe I just missed something, playing the game wrong and now I have 68 hours in game, 42 of which is in single story-line.
    I actually have completed the game once (speed run) and then I had multiple attempts to see how my choices affects other characters and the story – sadly not much.
    Much hyped 3 different character arches - nomad, corpo and street-kid are absolutely meaningless. You get different prologue and get few meaningless dialog options (which do not impact main story or game ending). Yes, random homeless person on the street may call you corpo-rat instead of nomad-rat, but that is about it, gangs around the city may have slightly different treatment for you, but nothing meaningfully impacting the game.
    Much hyper cars - handling is awful with keyboard (even with controller) and driving from inside is impossible. Car modification non-existent, you can't even change colour of your car and you can't save stolen cars. So what you can do is to buy ~60-80 pre-modified cars. That is all.
    Gun play is pretty bad, CDPR promised no bullet sponge yet at any difficulty, except of easy, enemies are all bullet sponges. Mods are quite basic. Same for clothing, almost impossible to manage your own style as you just wear random mess of clothes to give best stats - just not satisfactory for highly stylised game like this. Changing character looks itself after creation is not possible either... Actually, even body enhancement is pretty basic, there are only handful visual enhancements and rest are just stats, similar to what you get by levelling up perks.
    Another major feature of the game, romance - literally a joke. As a straight man (and that is 80%+ of gamers worldwide) you basically have "couple" options which are just tragically bad (and how much hype there was about this!?). In short you have single main romance option and couple side ones (they literally include joy toy which has single dialog option as "romance", not only that there is single prostitute in the game?!). The main one is pretty much pointless quests and ~5 dialogs with basic options. 5th dialog leads into most confusing sex scene ever. To be fair game creates quite nice chemistry with the character, but after the side quest is done there is no way to continue the relationship - you can basically call the character and dialog is basically - "how are you"/"I miss you"/"I miss you too"/"ok speak to you later". How disappointing?! Could not even take her to eat sushi in japan town, or go out in desert at night and have little bit more of convoluted sex scenes in video game. I am sorry just about any other other game put more effort into it without even advertising it as "feature".
    I can continue on, but the summary is that Cyberpunk 2077 is very mediocre game, loads of content, but quality of the content is just not great, not finished, not polished, no attention to details and almost every aspect is done better by one game or another. On PC it is playable, but that is about it. If you seriously interested in the game, then my advice - wait few more years and get like GOTY edition with 5DLCs and all bugs fixed. Don't waste time now and ruin your experience!    … Expand

    If you just want to experience an action story that goes for ~15-20 hours in a quite beautiful but shallow Cyberpunk world, that also has some very good side-missions, the game might be for you.

    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.
