    If you separate the company and everything we know about it now from the game, this game looks and feels awesome. Optimization could be better but this part was expected.
    I caught some minor bugs but looks like I'm lucky enough to didn't have game braking problems.

    First off, the story, the graphics, character creator and the world are at a level that's rarely seen and I've grown attached to a lot of Cyberpunk's characters, locations, songs and atmospheres.

    Although the game includes a number of good ideas, the RPG, stealth and shooter systems are not the best in the genre. Shooting is good, stealth and hacking is fun, driving is okay, etc... but

    Although the game includes a number of good ideas, the RPG, stealth and shooter systems are not the best in the genre. Shooting is good, stealth and hacking is fun, driving is okay, etc... but all systems in the game sadly miss balance and polish.

    In short, this game needed about 6-12 more months of work, for balance, polish, technical optimization and the implementation of missing features. It's a shame the game got pushed out too soon.

    I for one would have gladly waited for a more complete experience. Still, don't let the hype distort your experience, the game is great and I'm loving my time with it. I can't wait to see what CDPR does with this IP.

    It actually deserves 9/10 because there are no perfect games and Cyberpunk 2077 has some unfixed bugs as of now. However, those bugs are insignificant and not frequent. So bugs are not the main topic of discussion.
    Cyberpunk has a great story, great atmosphere, and real next generation graphics. I love this game no matter what others say!

The Witcher has a really well written story but here in Cyberbugs it feel like a child wrote the story. What we were promised was a lie... A lot of features missing. Cd Projekt is definitely competing with Bethesda in term of bugs here or wait they actually win... Worst. Here a little list of bad stuff :

    - Optimization are terrible on Pc.
    - Lod's popping visible.
    - Tileable textures visible and poor.
    - Random T-pose on character.
    - NPC's walk under the map or inside a wall.
    - NPC's on the street are linear and boring. There is absolutely no life.
    - Gameplay of the cars is garbage.
    - V is absolutely not interesting.
    - Cant re-change the look ingame.
    - Cant interact with Npc's.
    - You can Glitch under the map.
    - Cant even concentrate on a mission without having the phone rigging constantly.
    - Stupid idea in the mission...
    - When you call your vehicle there is a high risk of collision with other Npc's vehicles or maybe you could see it fly up in the sky or turn in circle.
    - Big empty lifeless world.
    - Bad coding.
    - Lod 3-4 visible closely sometimes.
    - imposter of the vehicles from far look so dense but once getting close this density is away make no sense.
    - Ai act really stupid... Fall on body. Doesn't hide and stand in the middle. go left to right rapidly without knowing what to do. Keep talking even when dead...
    - You will have to reload your save a lot because some mission bugs and you will not be able to finalize it.
    - Sometimes falling from a really little high will kill you instantly...
    - Invincible Boss or Npc.
    - You are invincible suddenly at 0 hp.
    - Entering your vehicle could sometimes take you for a fly in the air.
    - Lighting issue in dark area.
    - Cant rebind every shortkey.
    - Flying object in front of NPC's.
    - Missing Object.
    - Missing Dialogue.
    - Mission are boring even Watch dog has better missions.
    - Hacking is not well explained and really badly designed.
    - Braindance are not interesting and irritate the eyes.

    I might forget some others shame... as the list is huge.

    The only positive side of this game is the art direction and the lighting design. This game shouldn't have been release.

    My one line summary of Cyberpunk 2077.... It's Mass Effect 3 the Sequel.

    TLDR points... 1. the game is structurally flawed 2. your in game decisions are largely meaningless in the grand scheme of things 3. it's pretty to look at, if you've got top tier hardware 4. there are many broken or unplayable/unusable elements 5. there are lots of bugs so you're paying to beta/alpha test
    My one line summary of Cyberpunk 2077.... It's Mass Effect 3 the Sequel.

    1. the game is structurally flawed
    2. your in game decisions are largely meaningless in the grand scheme of things
    3. it's pretty to look at, if you've got top tier hardware
    4. there are many broken or unplayable/unusable elements
    5. there are lots of bugs so you're paying to beta/alpha test this... perhaps in 6 months to a year it might be better

    Longer commentary

    For me this game breaks the cardinal rule of RPG's / Action RPG's in that your actions in game should have real meaning... and for me, or at least in my experience I see that they don't. It doesn't matter if I played everything (and I did 90 hours) or if I'd followed what most of the media/YouTube reviewers did and played the main story etc (20ish hours)... at the end you're ultimately presented with a single choice... there are paths to this choice which are unlocked by what you played but regardless of those paths, they all converge to a single binary choice... just like in Mass Effect 3 - how would you like to die

    My gold standard RPG/aRPG is Mass Effect 2... because in that game, if you play it just right, make the right calls at the right time, you can save everyone and have a happy ending. it's not easy and I failed a few times... but it is possible. And CP'77 would have the potential for this if the writers had deemed it thusly. It's a factor of two (possibly both) things... time or douchery. I get the distinct impression that they were rushed, that they didn't have the time they needed to make this what they claimed it would be.... it certainly wasn't shipped when it was ready, that much is clear. But there were so many opportunities for the story to be better, that I have to wonder if these were deliberate decisions to take a large dump on the player from a great height. Opportunities to merge with your decision in a more compatible way, for the relationships that you choose to pursue to have real meaning, rather than just another check in the box. I chose to romance a character, and apart from the quest line which lead me to the conclusion of that romance, that was about all the interaction I had with that character... there were so many times it could have been woven into conversation or into decisions later on... but nope.
    Those of you that played the Witcher 3 know there are ways to get the 'bad' ending, and the 'good' ending... for me all the endings here are terrible because I feel that basically no matter what I did in the game, my end result wouldn't have changed... ultimately I'm indy in RotLA.

    I want to believe that the writers weren't trolling us... but maybe they were... using Hope as the carrot.. I also feel that there are great parallels with the Matrix as the story uses hope and choice like a carrot and stick... they're both an illusion.

    "Hope, it is the quintessential human delusion, simultaneously the source of your greatest strength, and your greatest weakness" the Architect.

    we are lead down the path that there is a way out, and then you find very quickly that is just another form of control... that ultimately your choices are meaningless.

    The game is structurally flawed (IMHO)... there is no reason for it to finish the way it does, and really i can't understand why CDPR chose it to be this way... there is no reason that you can't persist in the world after the main story line is complete... why the inevitable DLC's and Expansions need to be shoehorned into the story before the P.O.N.R.. I look to GTA5 for this as a persistent world that doesn't have it's main story as the 'be all and end all' of the world.... No amount of patches will change this...

    As for technical things... the game is a mess, there are bugs everywhere, the code is grossly unoptimized and a LOT of the QA process was either rushed or simply not done. I say this as a software designer and tester (not games)... there are things in this system which are wholly unacceptable but were clearly deprecated in priority to simply get it out the door. Even though this is a PC review, you can completely see why Sony have removed it from their store.

    I'll finish with some good points... it's a pretty game (when it's working), Night City is amazing in it's scope and concept. however, the execution is poor. I don't need to revisit others comments on how laughable the NPC AI is. but conceptually it is a visual spectacle. I have taken many fantastic screenshots with photo mode which I really treasure

    In conclusion... i feel disappointed and let down. I waited 8 years for the game, and really hoped that it would match the output that CDPR had achieved before. put aside the technical elements that can be fixed, the game (for me) is devoid of the heart that made the Witcher series... and it didn't need to have that missing...

    As Snake from the Simpsons says... Close but no donut Cop..

    such a shame

    I see hate and anger in a lot of comments.
    But the game is one of the best games in the last years.
    The problem is that CD-Project lied about the hardware requirements. You need at least a 1070 GTX to play it without a bad user experience.
    I have a good machine and I did not found any bug. If you have a good computer, play it, you will enjoy.

    Takes things from other games, but don't do them as well.

    I didn't really follow the hype leading up to the release of Cyberpunk. Only ever saw a few images and maybe minutes of a trailer, and Keanu Reeves showing up on stage.

    I didn't really follow the hype leading up to the release of Cyberpunk. Only ever saw a few images and maybe minutes of a trailer, and Keanu Reeves showing up on stage. Thought I'd pick it up and try it when it released. With expectations so high, I figured this has to be a great game.

    Cyberpunk takes gameplay aspects from a few other big titles. The open world mission based progression from GTA. The stealth/aggression FPS combat from Far Cry. And the level up perk dialogue options from Fallout. But each of these lack the depth from its' original counterpart.

    The open world in Cyberpunk a beautiful, and reasonably big. But the traffic AI, the law enforcement, and the pedestrian AI don't feel the most organic. Pedestrians would reply with the same few things whenever you spoke to them. The things you could do were also quite limited in the city. As far as I knew, vehicles you could drive didn't have that much variety as well. Bike, car, or suv. Driving around in Night City was laggy for me, but maybe the problem could be fixed with a better PC build.

    The game let me approach combat either with stealth, or guns blazing. I love stealth, and that's what I attempted at first. But this proved to be problematic. Scanned objects turned into a jumble of mess on my screen with random objects overlapping human enemies. The game intends for me to hack a radio to distract an enemy, but it takes me some time to actually align my cursor with the radio to hack it, making sure it's not the dude I hack. Hacking to distract enemies is a cool thought, but it serves the same purpose as throwing a rock to get enemies to turn around in many other stealth games of this nature, and it brings out the same effect with much less tedious work. I soon resorted to just going in guns blazing, as stealth became tedious and not fun. Most of the time, I'd be noticed for really stupid reasons. Either they suddenly turned around right before I could get close enough. OR the stupid double tap dodge input screwed me over. At times I'd tap the direction keys to slowly get closer, but that input combo is also for quick dodging, which means I'd accidentally blow my cover.

    The perk tree is enormous. Like WAY too big. The only way I see anyone can even come close to completing it is if they do every side mission and take on almost every random street conflict. It's not necessary to level each perk, but I can't imagine anyone being able to do it unless they are a hardcore completionist.

    The dialogue, voice acting, and characters were great. Although, there were many characters I wish had lived longer. I love it when games or shows kill characters, but I really wish Cyberpunk had kept some of them for longer, as I grew attached to them. Really wanted them to stick to, at least, until near the end.

    The story was interesting. Mind transfer. But it's nothing I haven't experienced before. SOMA and the Observer come to mind. As well as movies like Source Code, and the Matrix. All three arguably portray it better, imo. But Cyberpunk did tell it in a fascinating and unique way. Having Johnny around questioning my every move was interesting, and made me think about my morals, which side I was on, and what I should do.

    All in all, I did enjoy the game. But it's nothing I haven't experienced before. It's like CD Project Red tried to mesh together a bunch of the popular open world gameplay aspects together, but the result is just an average of all the big games that perfected the formula. The futuristic cyber theme definitely gives the game it's identity, albeit only visually.

And the suspension of disbelief in this game is oooohhhh terrible, like immediately after i get a wanted level, cops is spawn right behind me, like WTF man??

    And the setting, Night City. I read the review that night city is superficial as a setting. At first i don't believe it but afther i play for a while, i kinda agree with that review.

    For the characters, well, i love jackie but i don't really like Johnny, he's kinda like an **** almost all the time.

    The soundtrack is good... i don't usually listen to hip-hop but the music here is actually good to listen to.

    The only thing that annoys me so much is well... like everybody else, bugs and glitches. Some bugs and glitches are funny to watch but others are really frustating because sometimes i can't progress the game and the optimization is bad, the game crashed several times when i played this game.

    But most of the time, i enjoy this game, i got this game around $45 (cheaper yes) but i never regret buying this game, i believe CDPR gonna fix this game just like the witcher 3 before (remember that game is buggy too at launch).

Czytałem jak ludzie narzekają na to jak sztuczni są npc na ulicach jak auta jeżdżą bez celu, prawdę mówiąc nie zauważyłem większej sztuczności jak chociaż by w wychwalanym GTA V. Symulacje miasta CPR moim zdaniem zrobił co najmniej poprawnie ale to nie to jest najważniejsze. Fabuła gry świetna, zarówno główny watek jak i pobocznych zada, nawet te "wyzwania" policyjne jakoś kleją i trzymają kupy. Fakt tych pobocznych zadań jest masa, dla nie których pewnie za dużo ale przecież nie trzeba robić wszystkich. Gra się w to świetnie, model jazdy mnie zaskoczył, jest na prawdę fajnie zrobiony, jedynie do modelu jazdy motocyklem można się doczepić. Czuć rozwój postaci i postęp. Strzelanie wykonali bardzo dobrze, a model strzelania zza ukrycia jest chyba najlepszy jaki do tej pory widziałem w grach FPS, oby w innych produkcjach tez się taki system pojawił. Graficznie gra wymiata, zwłaszcza z włączonym RT, w tej grze naprawdę widać potencjał śledzenia promieni. Na koniec cos o bledach w grze, których ja nie uświadczyłem, a przynajmniej w takie jak są opisywane. Trafiło ich się kilka ale to były raczej drobne gliche graficzne i nie przeszkadzały w rozgrywce. Nie twierdze tez ,ze skoro u mnie problemu nie było to go nie ma aczkolwiek wydaje mi się, ze reakcja ludzi jest przesadzona(oczywiście mówię o wydaniu PC).

    And just like that film, there were times when I wasn't sure I could keep going. It is a relentless emotional assault that I suspect will force even the most jaded gamer to feel empathy. The game is a work of art - every aspect feels crafted at the highest level. Visuals, audio, controls, animation, level design, performance. It is astounding. And frequently beautiful.

    With moments you NEVER find in video games. But I cannot overstate how harrowing it is. It feels like 2 seasons of the darkest TV show you'll ever find, and it frequently better than most TV on the air. That's saying a lot. I think it is an IMPORTANT game. It tore me up, and I will never, ever forget CYBERPUNK 2077 is a game that will change you.

    In short, CYBERPUNK 2077 put me through hell. I did not enjoy it. I wasn't supposed to. I was affected by it. Like no game before. I am in awe of it. I am recovering from it.

    There are lots of bugs and technical issues, and optimization problems but the videogame is great! The story is really good! Graphics are stunning and the atmosphere and the city are definitely breathtaking!
    But to be honest this game should've postponed one more time...

    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.
