    The game is good, but not the 2nd coming of Jesus Christ like everyone thought it would be. Lots of bugs, though I personally haven't found anything gamebreaking. The game is GORGEOUS in most areas. The quests are are well done. Looking forward to updates to see this game the way people thought it would be.

    Gran juego y obra por parte de todos los trabajadores de CD Proyect Red. Narrativa y ambientación geniales desde el minuto uno. Increíble banda sonora. Recomendado 100%.

    I love the game. There is obviously some glitches (I have it on Stadia but play on my PC). I think it's an awesome game though overall. I think once it's fixed up some it's definitely one of the best games of the year. Everytime I turn it on I end up playing for hours.

    While it's not a perfect game, It's the one that has hit me the most. The characters, the stories, the soundtrack, the animations, the city, ... every aspect of the game felt like a lot of work and care have been put into it.
    If you love story-driven action RPGs or Immersive Sims like Deus Ex, you won't be disappointed by this incredible game.

    poor version of Saints Row but with worse graphics. Game needs character modification after intro, broken police system, gangs don't care how many of them you kill, no vehicle modification, no gun skins, no armour skins, game is lacking everywhere but size

    I personally think that this game doesn't deserve all those negatives reviews. Must be hard optimizing such a detailed game on 7 years old consoles. I'm now at approximately 40 hours into the game and the only bugs I've seen are funny and didn't prevent me from progressing into this awesome game. Would highly recommend this game !

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The rate is for the story, not the bugs. Just finished the main story which was super intriguing and immersive.
    Kind of disappointed about what we are capable of doing in Night City from the trailers. But I admits that the story is still good enough be worth 8/10.

    Miss Jackie, and like Misty's personality though not too much side quests from her.

    The ending song (never fade away) was a decent choice for the multiple endings.
    I like what Johnny said "nick working with you, V" in the suicide endings. It's a hard choice, touching but I would prefer the way in secret ending even if we don't want to sacrifice friends.

    All in all, Panam's ending looks the best to me.

    I like the voicemail in the credit roll, just like this way to get to know how other friends thought about V.

    *currently at 80 hours played, 1st full playthrough was 45 hours, but I was skipping a lot of side content planning on my 2nd playthrough being the 'real' one*

    This game has its issues, but at least for me the bugs and glitches haven't been more than annoying, and they've gotten better with the patches CDPR have put out. My worst problem was that I was getting a lot of crashing, but after troubleshooting that turned out to be either because of my GPU or the overclock I had on the GPU. (I ended up replacing the card and borrowing it to a friend, i haven't had a crash in 30 hours, he was crashing as we were setting the card up in his system until I removed the OC and left it stock)

    Despite the issues the game has, I am having a ton of fun with it. The gameplay is fun, I love how relatively real the characters in the game feel (especially how they randomly call and text you), I like the loot/craft/upgrade systems in the game, I enjoy the monkeying with the fashion of my character despite the game mostly being in 3rd person, great customization as far as character builds, the story isn't AMAZING but it is engaging and a lot of the side-quests and Gigs are really good, the game looks gorgeous (playing on an RX 6800 with mostly maxed settings, a few things that don't make a visual impact but do make a performance impact turned down), the world feels dense and alive...

    I just really enjoy this game, despite the flaws, and if the glitches and bugs are ironed out I would give it a 9/10.

    Some things that I would improve on... I like the 1st person view in a lot of the cars, but many have so much crap sticking out of the hood it's hard to see. Vehicle/clothes/gear customization. Being able to change V's appearance in game, even if just by a haircut. Improve traffic AI. Probably some others I'm not thinking of now, I don't think any game is a perfect 10/10, despite how often review sites throw that score around, glossing over issues with games or even dropping scores for things that has nothing to do with the game itself (like politics, racism issues or gender equality/freedom).

    Update: Currently at 117 hours in, finding tons of stuff I missed in previous playthroughs, being impressed with the detail the game has and how certain choices can make you completely miss things in the game or cause some events to never happen. I still haven't been really affected too much by bugs and glitches beyond some minor annoyance. Definitely a solid 8/10 game that for me is now creeping towards a 9/10 even with the bugs and glitches just because of everything I've found in more playing time that I'd missed or not noticed before.

I will say the city LOOKS very good its just such a letdown when you come to realize its just an empty shell. The biggest point to take away is that the game is just plain old boring. Everything it tries to do has been done better by games 5+ years old. The most disappointed i've ever been in a game but again that is partly because i had such high hopes. There are so many better games out there to devote your time to. It may have been decent had it come out 10 years ago but not in 2020. Expand

    More like a 9/10, but it’s current 7/10 rating needs to be balanced out. I’m loving the game on PC using an RTX 2060 Super.

Using a controller, I think the driving is nearly as good as GTA V, and the shooting mechanics are on par with Destiny (which is unheard of for RPGs). Stealth is functional, but it’s a crying shame that CDPR removed wall-running/hanging from the game. Night City is the most vertically dense open world ever created - it’s visually unrivaled as well. AI isn’t great. The story, however, is really solid (I’m about 50% through the main, but I’ve played 50 hours due to side missions). CDPR promised a far more innovative game, and we should have been more skeptical. Innovation can still be found, but the most exciting promised mechanics, e.g., unique life paths, customization, unique cybernetics, and vertical movement mechanics (wall-hanging/running/climbing). In spite of everything, I still consider it to be a solid 9/10. It’s just that the game we were supposed to get sounded like an 11/10, and for whatever reason, they dumbed it down considerably. If you have a decent PC, try it out. Or wait a few months; CDPR will surely smooth out the bugs and add features. Expand

    First of all I am EXTREMELY disappointed, the game doesn't introduce us to even smidgeon of what it was supposed to. It doesn't have extensive character creation allowing you to personalize your V, theres no bodytypes.

There's no consequential choice to be made in the game during your conversations, and even in what you do. I have played it over 80 hours, loaded and saved many times to test this out and whatever you say does lead to the same track of the story. The AI is atrocious civilians in the city act like zombies they either all cower, or runaway when you use weapon, police just spawns on top of you. Forget police chasing you or anything like that they are too stupid to climb after you on the ladder if you run from them to the roof... So in that aspect i'm extremely disappointed... There's no replay value in it to me... because i'm not going to waste time through everything i have already seen... Even when Johnny Silverhand appears during the quest trying to push you to take one way over another, none of those choices change anything in the game. No one attacks you because of how you finished your quests, no one becomes your friend giving you some advantages... Nothing... But in general in it's linear main story, it's a decent game, it has a decent characters and decent story... I'm not going to talk about the bugs... so in general is below average for me... it will entertain you for a little... To me a huge disappointment, considering how much of a CDPR fanboy i was... PS... I dont think its fixable by patches, unless they rewrite the whole game... Expand

The illusion of choice bs is very much present in this game and I had enough of it while playing Walking Dead series, so I had no tolerance for it in Cyberpunk.

    Even if the game ran at 60 fps, and there were times that it did, the gunplay feels very stiff and unpolished. I mean I'll admit, my expectations were pretty high since I've played 100+ hours in CoD MW for example, and this is an FPS RPG, but like, even Borderlands 2 has better gunplay.

    It's obvious that the dev team did their best with the resources and time they had, but it was just not enough and management pushed the game out the door before Christmas to please investors. I'm pretty sure in mid 2021 this game will run far better with far less bugs, but the core gameplay is stale. The story is good but the world is empty. These deeper issues might never be fixed so, be careful before buying it.

    To address the elephant in the room: The game is a buggy and glitchy mess. Sometimes you cannot run, cars are falling from the sky, you die from nothing, NPCs are scared for life once you shoot next to them etc.

    Aside from that, the core gameplay mechanics are driving, shooting and character progression - and none of those mechanics are well executed. 1. The driving is terrible. Cars
    To address the elephant in the room: The game is a buggy and glitchy mess. Sometimes you cannot run, cars are falling from the sky, you die from nothing, NPCs are scared for life once you shoot next to them etc.

    Aside from that, the core gameplay mechanics are driving, shooting and character progression - and none of those mechanics are well executed.
    1. The driving is terrible. Cars are slow (200km/h max with luxury sports cars) and clunky. Sometimes they get stuck on a **** and fall through the ground, other times they crash through boulders and trucks without losing speed. None of them have proper brakes other than the handbrake and require a deceleration prior to fully stopping. And lets not even mention driving on a motorcycle oh boy...
    I personally don't understand why there are only cars running on gas (why not electric in a cyber world), yet there are no gas stations in the city.
    2. The gunplay in Cyberpunk is decent but the guns are pretty repetitive. All that counts is DPS and there is no real distinction in what weapon to use against what target. Enemies are bullet sponges and don't really have any weaknesses you can abuse. If a character is high level, it does not matter that he is naked - it will still take you mass headshots to bring him down. The melee combat is clunky and pointless. You mostly just smash left click to kill an enemy.
    3. Character stats are mostly just +x% something. You don't learn any new skills or capabilities, you just make what you already have better. That makes grinding through repetitive side quests tedious and not fun.

    The story is the strong point of the game, but it is mostly carried by good actors, rather than a good script. Except for the main actor for the lead role of V, the voice actors did a really good job. V himself has a lot of voice lines which sound out of place, as if they were recorded without context.

    If they were going for an immersive experience in an imaginary setting, I would have preferred gameplay as in STALKER, where the character progression is less RPG based, but more realistic. The character progression is not fun anyway, as it doesn't contribute anything to the good parts of the game. Meanwhile a lot of concepts like dumb bulletsponge AI, who cannot see you unless you are 1m in front of them, are just ruining the experience.

    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.
