    A deeply broken and unfinished game. The leadership of CPR is to blame, they lied about the final state of the product. Shame on them.

    Remember the trailer about life choices and how it will affect your entire game? Guess what, it only changes the first 15 minutes of the game.

    Remember the trailer about the most vibrant, immersive world like never seen before? Guess what, there isn't even traffic AI, NPC's on the street don't know what to do, there is not a single thing to interact with in the city. There are not car chases because there is no driving AI. The cops spawn behind you, because they don't know how to drive and can't actually arrive at the scene. Cars keep popping in and out as you rotate your head.

    Remember how Night City was supposed to be smaller, but because of it's verticality the possibilities would be huge? Guess what, there are a handful of towers which have 2 to 3 floors.

    Remember that trailer about style, how there are 4 different clothing styles and how these will affect your game, who you are? Your cyberware, your tattoos, the guns? Guess what. There is 0 customization and you can't even get a haircut, tattoo or see the affect of cyber mods on your character.

    Remember that trailer about the cars, their style, their purpose? Guess what. None of it really matters because the driving is absolutely insane, cars are completely random and meaningless (why is Night City full of trucks without trailers?).

    I can keep going on like that, but none of the promises are real and it's overall a terrible game. Advertised as the most immersive world to date, it lacks basic NPC AI which games like GTA3 and Mafia had (these games are almost 20 years old). Litteraly every open world game in the last 20 years has had traffic AI, NPC's reacting to the player, random things to interact with.. but Cyberpunk doesn't have any of that.

    As long as you follow the main story and ignore the stupid AI, the game is ok. But get off the main quest and you begin to realize what a disaster this game is.

    They don't get a pass just because it's CDPR. And the game is not unfinished - it can't be unfinished after 9 years od development. It's simply ****

    CDPR destroyed their reputation as a consumer friendly company for what ever reason. This is the scummiest thing I've ever witnessed in my 25 years of gaming. EA would be proud.

    A 6/10 game that is brought down by an overabundance of bugs and glitches.

    The gameplay is completely fine, but less interesting than any other FPS of the last couple of generations.

    The gameplay is completely fine, but less interesting than any other FPS of the last couple of generations. The story moves way too quickly, and the side quests, while sometimes fun, don't really convince me that this is a living world.

    There is also the issue of CD Projekt Red trying to both make a blank canvas and a fleshed out character in V. We can customize him/her, yet it is very obvious from dialogue that he has a personality out of our control. The combination is a very frustrating experience of trying to roleplay and being forced into this bland and opinionated character.

    The RPG elements are basically non-existent, with skill trees mostly providing insignificant percentage upgrades, and rarer weapons feeling completely useless due to the loot distribution.

    The highlight of the game is how the city looks while not in motion. CDPR use beautiful colours and advanced techniques to make the city look beautiful, and yet it feels completely lifeless. When you see all of the NPCs walking around as if they have a completely random path you feel like you're playing a game that should predate even Oblivion.

    All in all this is a very flawed game that I don't think will be fixed in the foreseeable future.

    26 hours into game, and it is absolutely amazing. Truly next generation of RPGs.

    Works nicely on a 4 year old PC (with RTX 2080 Ti though). Some visual glitches, no crashes whatsoever. All on High settings, around 40 FPS on busy scenes, 60+ otherwise - it's not a competitive shooter, doesn't matter that much. I run it on 1440p Ultrawide, lots of pixels to push. P.S. RDR 2? Come

    I was a huge fan of CD Projekt RED for 13+ years (since the first Witcher) and I liked the GOG's policy, despite preferring other platforms for their functionality. I really didn't want to bring this up, but the GOG/CDPR actions and attitude left me no choice.

    I was a huge fan of CD Projekt RED for 13+ years (since the first Witcher) and I liked the GOG's policy, despite preferring other platforms for their functionality. I really didn't want to bring this up, but the GOG/CDPR actions and attitude left me no choice.

    The Cyberpunk 2077 is raw, unpolished and bugged as hell. The more I play — the more broken quests, "silent" dialogues and other technical issues I get. I was sending bug reports and suggestions to the CDPR support since release, but I haven't got any replies. Zero. Not even automatic ones, so I don't know if they even check them or no. There are no answers, there are no patches, there is no roadmap. The day-one patch arrived on GOG later than on other platforms and after that only two useless "hotfixes" were released (it didn't fix anything for me). No real patches for a month, no new hotfixes for weeks. The Russian localization is terrible and Galaxy client resetting the language preferences every time I launch the game. (There is no such problem on other stores). And the client still crashes ten times per day.

    I've heard a lot of complaints about optimization, but at least I don't have any significant problems on that front despite some minor fps drops and object popping. Though I've built my PC especially for Cyberpunk and my TV supports only 1080p resolution at 60fps which is likely the main reason I’ve got an ok performance.

    GOG/CDPR stuff keep ignoring all problems with Cyberpunk and Galaxy launcher, but this isn't the only problem they prefer to turn a blind eye for. Some of you may know that they decided to cancel the long-awaited release of an indie game Devotion on GOG to please some Chinese bots. They've slaughtered the game without any reasons (the little placeholder with the hurtless joke was completely removed from the game years ago). And the main problem in this situation that GOG staff answered on Twitter bot messages within a few hours by fully cancelling the promised release not only for China but for the rest of the world too. At the same time, they keep ignoring thousands of their own customers for weeks. They’ve just silently deleted the announcement and cancellation posts without any official statement/explanation/comment, ignoring all questions and support tickets about their decision. Just check the GOG’s Community Wishlist — it is the most requested game of December and January. This is just another sign that GOG/CDPR changed their policy from being pro-customer to being pro-money. It isn't the first call, but it can be the last one for many loyal customers. Censorship can't be tolerated, especially political censorship — I'm sick of this **** in my everyday life.

    So, after all of this, I’ve got really disappointed. I tend to buy way more games than I have time to play. And I prefer playing on another platform, but I used to buy second copies of the games I like on GOG only because I liked it's policy, customer-oriented service and wanted to support my favourite devs. But this isn't the thing anymore. I haven't even played 99% of the games I've bought on GOG, so, I've tried to request a refund for them. And they refused.

    GOG support has finally answered on my ticket. First of all, they've completely ignored all my questions about Devotion. Secondly, they've refused to refund anything (not a single game from 340+ in my library!) They've also refused to comment on the bugs and estimated release of next patch for Cyberpunk 2077. (They've told me to contact "CDPR official channels" that haven't answered to support tickets in a month). Finally, they've refused to partly refund my physical copy of Cyberpunk 2077 so I could get the Steam version instead (I don't want to be forced to buy future addons on GOG and use their broken launcher anymore). They've told me that I should refund my physical collector's edition where I've bought it. But it isn't possible after you've opened the box and used the activation code. Well, I will be waiting for heavily discounted GOTY/Director's Cut/Enhanced edition on other platforms then.

    I was supporting and advertising GOG for years. I've bought all CDPR games on release, including collector's editions and versions for different platforms (not to mention figurines and tons of other merch). I didn't expect that these companies’ management will start to wipe their feet on its loyal customers. I’ve missed the moment when they turned into EA/Activision siblings, but as far as history shows — it's the one-way road in this industry.

    This is the last game I've bought on GOG. In the current state, I can't recommend it to anyone, nor I can recommend this platform anymore. I'm disgusted by GOG/CDPR recent actions and their new priorities. I'm disappointed by the way they've decided to handle situations around failed Cyberpunk launch and Devotion censorship. Their reaction (the lack of it) on customers' feedback is a disgrace and I regret supporting them so much…

    This game is great. I'd say not perfect, but that's only because I'd be basing it off the Witcher 3 instead of on it's own. Runs great on my 3 gen old system (running ultra on a 1070GTX @90 fps). The combat is fun, the missions are great, the story explodes mid game, like the side-gigs go from random lame 5 min missions to full blown 30-60 min episodes. It's fantastic.

    If I have anything bad to say about the game, it's the reactivity of NPCs. I understand that there are like, tens of thousands if not more of these things, but they show absolutely no response to your character or achievements. 50 Street Cred and considered a "legend?" Prepare for random dude to tell you to "F**k off and die." when you try to talk to him. You literally wiped an entire district of enemies for the NCPD, and took out all the missions? Prepare for the cops to still shoot you if they see you trip over an NPC, and the NPCs to not give a damn what you did.

    I did expect the world to be more like a bethesda or even witcher game where the NPCs would update, acknowledge, and keep up to date with what they player has done, since they're making such a huge effect.

The difference between Cyberpunk 2077 and RDR2 is NIGHT and DAY. Cyberpunk 2077 isn't a next-gen game. It's not even a current-gen game. It's maybe a PS3 era game when you look past the beautiful graphics. Expand

I've already wasted hours trying to figure out which combination of edits the game will accept without breaking. Absurd and outrageous, particularly given that you could bind almost all functions in Witcher 3. Leaving a score of 0 because the game doesn't work. Expand

The most frustrating game ever, a complete disaster, a scam. My advice: don't buy this game and get reimbursed, when applicable. Also please don't believe the blinded fans who are trying to overrate the game with all 10/10 ratings.

I also tried to avoid becoming too hyped for it so as to not be disappointed if it didn't live up to expectations. Both of these considered I have become very jaded with the game in a very short timescale.

    Cyberpunk 2020 pnp game was a mainstay of my mid teens and is something I loved. This does not even deserve to share the same name as that wonder of childhood imagination.

    The list of what is wrong is quite a long one, off the top of my head as follows:

    * Driving is abysmal. If they play tested this on M+K then I am shocked.

    * Amazing introduction to the game that then abruptly ends and montages into a pale reflection of the first few hours

    * Crafting is a bland inventory screen with no real customisation available

    * Live path choice makes no difference, neither do choices in dialogue. "All roads lead to" as it were.

    * No real progressing your life path just a montage (mentioned above) and things abruptly change.

    * AI is non existent. All NPC's do the very same thing

    * FPS shooting is really bland, the enemies just do one of two things "cover and peek out at semi regular intervals" or "charge headlong into you while you hipfire and down them".

    And some of the things that were meant to be in the game?

    * NPC daily routines and AI? Nope none of that

    * wanted system and corrupt cops?

    * techies and controllable bots?

    * vehicle customization?

    * the subway? Literally the mainstay.

    * customizable apartments? or moving?

    * elemental weapons?

    * clothing stats being based on augments and mods?

    * weapons being upgradeable and customizable?

    * customizable backstories?

    * bringing people back to your apartment?

    * the day and night cycle affecting the game and world?

    * dynamic weather?

    No where to be seen.

    The game is complete rubbish. The world doesn't feel alive. Civilian NPCs behave like mechanical dolls. Lack of gameplay events in the world (random cop car chases, bank robberies, etc.). Wanted system is a joke - the cops literally spawn near you. AI is really poor. Once you park your car the AI just waits there without even trying to overtake and also often roadblocks itself.

    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.
