    Disclosure: I am playing on a PS4 Pro

    Where do I start? I will preface by saying that the Witcher 3 is my favorite video game of all time, so I might be a little biased to CDRP. When I am playing a game, the question I always ask myself: am I having fun? And the answer to Cyberpunk 2077 is a resounding yes.

    Disclosure: I am playing on a PS4 Pro

    Where do I start? I will preface by saying that the Witcher 3 is my favorite video game of all time, so I might be a little biased to CDRP. When I am playing a game, the question I always ask myself: am I having fun? And the answer to Cyberpunk 2077 is a resounding yes. The first few hours are a slow-burn, but once you get past this, you are presented with a game that is incredibly layered, complex, with what seems to be an entertaining story (at least it is 10 or so hours in at this point). Good graphics, characters, voice-acting, etc., everything you would expect from a CDPR game. What is not being talked about enough is the music. Music gets a 10/10. Normally I don't focus on the music too much in a game, but they nailed it here. I'm talking Hotline Miami quality music that really fits the Cyberpunk setting. That being said, the game is far from perfect.

    The combat is okay. It can be a little chaotic with how detailed the game is, and many times with so much going on on the screen, I had no clue what was going on and the AI isn't great (although, the computer was able to flank me a handful of times).

    Performance has also been a huge controversy surrounding the game. Playing on the PS4 Pro, I definitely have noticed some performance issues, but none have been game breaking. Sometimes while driving, the game will "glitch" for a few seconds to get caught up, the visual of a weapon will be missing from my hand, etc. However, for me, this was to be expected for this type of game, or really any massive open-world game. I would say the technical issues were about the same, maybe slightly worse for me, as Valhalla. They are present, but nothing game breaking. For these reasons alone, the game gets an 8 instead of a 10.

    For everyone griping about the games performance on the base PS4 or Xbox One. What did you expect? This game was released right as next gens were, and any game this ambitious was going to push the current gen consoles. Anyone who expected this game to run smoothly on a base PS4 is being naive IMO, and I had even heard pre-release that this would probably be the case. We, as gamers, put CDPR in a no-win situation. We demanded a game that pushed the limits of gaming and what current gen consoles could handle. I am sure people would be upset if they dumbed the game down to work perfectly performance wise (wait, you're saying we waited 8 years for this?!?), they could have made it only for next gen consoles (people would have lost their minds over this), or they could have delayed again to patch it more. Considering that the devs already received death threats from the last delay, we as gamers made this decision for them.

    I think we need to take a step back here and realize the impossible demands the gaming community has put on CDPR. Yes, they are partially to blame for making this ambitious of a game, but the demands the gaming community have put on them are unrealistic and unobtainable. There is never going to be a perfect game, but I think that was what was expected from Cyberpunk 2077. Again, if you thought a base PS4 or PS4 Slim would run this game smoothly, that was naive, imo.

    I really enjoyed it. A bit short tho. But the story and characters are exceptional. Finishing the game felt like a break up for me.

    Great game overall, I love the story, the open world, and the soundtrack, but that's all it has going for it, otherwise, it's either not mindblowing or very underwhelming, such as the game's physics, the combat is very shallow. I'm giving it a very high score just because the story itself is enough to make me love it.

The perks and upgrades are really fun to mess around with. the games main story is 25-40 hours long depending on how you play it. There are alot of great side missions some better than the main story. but overall this game is good i wouldn't recommend to console players in its current state but if you have a decent pc it is a great game and i recommend it if you dont mind the bugs now and again Expand

    (Currently I'm about 20 hours into this game, i can't remember a single player title i played so much during 3 days in last 10 years)

    I've started playing this game expecting buggy trash that i will check out again within next year. Turned out i have only minor glitches (3900x + 3080 + nvme ssd and fast ram) and game is awesome. Impresive scale, it's like few games merged together: -

    I've started playing this game expecting buggy trash that i will check out again within next year. Turned out i have only minor glitches (3900x + 3080 + nvme ssd and fast ram) and game is awesome. Impresive scale, it's like few games merged together:
    - Shooting similiar to Borderlands (7/10)
    - Sneaking similiar to hitman (6/10, 8/10 for me but i'm a sucker for 'hacking backstory')
    - Open world city and driving like in gta (6/10 driving, 9/10 sights, scale of the city is astonishing)
    - Great story missions, this one is clearly 10/10, for me it's even better than writing in witcher 3
    - Huge amount of additional writing, world building, things to read and figure out (similiar to the way backstory is presented in prey)
    - Multiple side missions with awesome backstory

    This is a huge game, to be honest it's a miracle they pulled something like this off. If it works properly it's 10/10. I hope they will fix the bugs on other platforms so everybody will get to experience this title in it's full glory.

    Please be aware that my experience is with PC version 1.04. The situation on last-gen consoles can be very different.

    This game is one of a kind and masterfully crafted if you know what to expect. It is not an online game and not your typical GTA style running and gunning. It is unfortunately not as technically polished as people thought it would be, which is a shame because everything
    Please be aware that my experience is with PC version 1.04. The situation on last-gen consoles can be very different.

    This game is one of a kind and masterfully crafted if you know what to expect. It is not an online game and not your typical GTA style running and gunning. It is unfortunately not as technically polished as people thought it would be, which is a shame because everything else is just so good: the music, sound, lore, weapons, animations, cars, characters, and more.

    Story-telling and roll-playing are the two main elements here. There are plenty of dialogue choices based on your life-path. You can choose the type of character that you want to be and act like one, which opens up distinctively different options of play-style, like stealth, sniper, hacker, engineer, or tank. Although the AI is rather basic, you can still get killed quite frequently if you do not manage your stats, gear, and approach. The stealth system is nothing fancy, but it works and does provide a fair amount of challenge.

    In terms of graphics, this game has set a new high benchmark. There is no equivalent game to-date with such a high level of attention to details and insane density. With ray-tracing enabled, the world is unbelievably immersive and beautiful. Yes, there are graphical glitches here and there occasionally, but, overall, one cannot deny how good the world looks.

    People giving it a zero score are likely blowing off their frustration with the technical issues of the game. This massive art-piece, which is a result of many years of work, is not even out for a week. Some have waited 7 years for this game to become a reality, so I believe you can wait a bit longer for CDPR to iron out the bugs too. Even with the imperfections, this game still packs a punch.

    At its current state, I will give it a 9/10. But knowing CDPR, they will fix most of the bugs eventually, making it a 10/10 masterpiece that it truly deserves.

I have also seen people complain about the Game not being "the next GTA", which is not the games fault, because it never tried to be.

Giving this game a 0, just because this isn't what you wanted or it isn't running perfectly on 7 year old hardware isn't fair to this game. It is so ambitious with it's open world and so revolutionary when it comes to the way it tells its excellent story, that despite of all of these problems, the game is still a great experience and worth buying. Telling the developers that their game is total garbage is not fair and review bombing is not okay. If you're so unhappy with the games performance, just wait a few weeks months or just buy one of the new consoles. 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.
