    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I mean obviously there were bugs, but never had any issues with it. Let me continue on the real things.

    Ending this game made me really sad. The story is what mattered to me the most.
    You might resemble Johnny with things you do in the game, but you are still one of your own, your choices after all and you are not exactly what Johnny is.

    The meaningful characters to the game that mattered to us the most like Jackie a real friend at the very beginning, his kind mother, Judy with her gang, Evelynn, Panam and the family (yes can't ever forget Scorpion, Mitch or Saul and the rest), Johnny as an additional companion which introduced us to his band and previous gang members. Viktor that always fixes us up no matter what. Delamain was funny. Takemura was looking like he came from Sekiro or something and we became better with him even though again it didn't end really well with him.

    I chose to end with Panam. I did not expect things to be like they did. The obvious reason why to end with Panam is because she and the family (and by family I mean Aldecaldos) were true friends right from the start (i mean meeting) too. They cared about you as much as Jackie did. They will do anything for you.

    I did not trust anyone else and that's the reason I chose to end with Panam. Who would trust Arasaka if they wanna kill each other's family members like it's nothing. Johnny even though he is all the time by your side, he still wants to take over eventually like in the end of my choice with Panam. Then Rogue just doesn't feel like you can trust at all and you already know Panam was on bad terms with her which explains a lot.

    It felt like I speedrun my whole life in a game. I had so many good friends that really cared and they always appreciated what you did, they will tell you this, unlike real life and this is probably the biggest reason why it made me sad.

    The credits rolling and showing all our friends we met, their recordings to be more precise, lowkey explaining how you will end up and how good you are on terms with the people you met and that you still have contact with them just feels great and also again even that makes me sad.

    I honestly can't even sleep, was really tired, slept for a tiny bit and in that tiny bit I dreamt of Cyberpunk again.
    Waking up feeling even more sad. And here I am now.

    Anyway all these things I mentioned might show you the vision and how I really feel.

    Because of the story I went past all the bad things that might have existed like weird AI including enemies that sometimes stand in a corner or teleport or cops and so on. I had minor bugs but only had to restart the game twice when there was a slightly bigger issue like one time where a song was still playing even when the scene ended with Johnny, probably a trigger of an event ending didn't happen, 2nd was again similar. Frames were decent and playable 50+ in very populated areas, max was around 110, I had it all on ultra and with just a 2060 Super.

    I had fun and enjoyed living a life in a Cyberpunk world.

    And because this is a RPG you can start whenever you want from scratch with different levelling and what not.
    Ofcourse nothing is going to be like your first try.

    My first try went with using handguns mostly because I'm a fan of them so I levelled that to the max, rest was decently levelled.

    I liked some of the soundtracks, audio was really great done. Graphics looked so real and characters especially. If you have it on ultra it's even more realistic ofcourse. Then there's preference settings too.

    Anyway the game was great for me. I will never forget it. It at same time improved my life and made me so sad. As someone who plays many games, watches anime or series, movies whatever, ending Cyberpunk hit really hard. Sometimes I just don't feel anything when I finish it but it's not like that with CP2077. It's definitely a good game after all. When they patch it, that's when it hits its prime, but probably soon. Hopefully anyone finds this useful and has their own opinion on the game. I enjoyed it and whenever I start playing it again in future I will still enjoy it.

    I tried to remember if I forgot anything but I think I said it all. These in game characters meant more to me than most people in real life. Sometimes I think to myself if it's possible if afterlife even exists to meet all the people you met in games or when you watched series etc. etc.

    That's it from me. Hope you all enjoy the game. It's worth a try.

    Лично мне игра понравилась, хорошо проработанный сюжет, куча сайд квестов и за 55 часов игры я не встретил каких либо скучных квестов, большое количество отссылок.
    Есть довольно большое количество багов, но они не существенные (после патча)
    Снял бал за баги и за вариативность концовки не буду спойлерить.

    I'm giving this a zero because anyone who gives this a perfect score is a SHILL or a Fake Account, and we need to combat that.

    Don't release a game that isn't ready.

    Bugs exist, before finishing the game encountered only two or three of em and one crash. BUT. Gameplay, plot, sound - all perfect. You'll enjoy this game if playing on decent-average PC (my i7+1060 6gb+16gbRam-60 fps on high with slight drops in overcrowded areas)

Its not a cop/drive simulator for depressed/wannabe cop killer kids like some games out there are, but its a great game full of immersive details for those who are adult enough to perceive and notice these details. My 700+gb of games are sleeping while i play this game with so much fun i havent had for ages... full of details and immersive. The biggest problem this game is facing so far is the negative impact of screaming children on the internet, who like to simulate driving and cop chasing and compare their game to cyberpunk even though racing and cop mechanic is not all that defines a game and cyberpunk is a RPG but the kids not only are known for not enjoying to read and skipping classes, they are also known for being violent in the internet towards other gamers. Its age-related problem in my opinion, as we know the average age of gta players is around 12. But I have only 20% main story completed and 1% side missions done after all of this time playing... Thats why i am enjoying this game, Its amazing even with bugs.... Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Unforgivable physics and AI. Bugs. glitches even after the latest patch. So many details are missing, the story is just OK, nothing fancy, dialog options are not making big difference. The looting system is just stupid, so boring, the one thing I hated in Witcher 3 is now in Cyberpunk. Overall mediocre experience related to every aspect of the game. Not immersive at all. Graphics are good, artists did a good job, no a GREAT job. But everything else is just a joke. Oh well, it's 2020... Expand

    Next to The Witcher 3, it's definitely the most interesting story for adults in video games, and only small technical problems that will probably disappear. Steam version full detail rtx has amazing graphics, music, sound and dialogs.

    Never in my life I've enjoyed triple A game this much. The plot is great, the architecture is extraordinary, NPCs are vibrant and unique, even shooting isn't bad (for a RPG game).

    I've quite enjoyed fighting with one of the main bosses this much, that I've decided to quickload and fight with him again, just to increase the fun by using more close combat style ;) - few moments of it were
    Never in my life I've enjoyed triple A game this much. The plot is great, the architecture is extraordinary, NPCs are vibrant and unique, even shooting isn't bad (for a RPG game).

    I've quite enjoyed fighting with one of the main bosses this much, that I've decided to quickload and fight with him again, just to increase the fun by using more close combat style ;) - few moments of it were literally - epic.

    I'm also enjoying the simple car rides through the Night City at night, both as driver and passenger. The flashing neons, the music, vibrant and living ambient and ever changing landscapes, architecture and colors - add good plot and narration to it and you've just got something awesome.

    And now, for the bad part.

    Crafting is meh. Not good, not bad, just meh.

    Playing with a xbox 360 controller is a pain when it comes to action. Which is a shame, considering having the ability to move/run fluidly. (which isn't possible with a keyboard) - aim assist doesn't work for me - it may be due to how old it is, but it's just bad nonetheless.

    Character creator - at first looked very nice and detailed, but after closer inspection.. well, it's quite basic. But maybe I'm exaggerating due to my experience with Eve Online's creator :)

    Driving model isn't too great too, especially when it comes to first-person view from the car. The FOV could be little bigger IMO. Also the minimap is just useless - most of the time, you have no idea when you will have to turn - it would be much better if it zoomed out a little (depending on speed?).
    Motorcycle drifts - I just hate it when I try to drift into a turn, and just at the end of a drift, my motorcycle rotates and straightens up for no reason, causing me to crash.
    And the vehicles are waay too jumpy IMHO.

    And last but not least, the bugs. Of course, there are many of them, but quite a few triple A games also have them. There are many, at first I had problems due to AVX bug, but most of the time, the game plays just fine, even on not too fresh hardware hardware.
    Few bugs are annoying, few can ruin the ambient, but they are so insignificant for me, that I mostly just ignore them. Mostly I just laugh, and laugh is healthy, so win-win I guess.

    To conclude: it's a great game with many innovations. It makes me laugh, it makes me sad, it makes me angry or happy. The movie-like atmosphere is just great. And bugs, at least on a mid-good PC, are bearable.
    Let's just hope that CDPR will give it a final polish (badum tsss) soon enough :)

    Yes there are minor issues here and there, but nothing serious on pc and we all asked for it to be released even though they several times tried to tell us it wasn't ready. Yes ofc it shouldn't have been released for last gen consoles at all, or just not yet. Stop crying, pretend the game has been delayed again and open it in March when it has been fixed with patches. Problem solved. Or buy a pc. Playing on rtx 2070, may upgrade to 3080 to play 4k at Oled.

However, much like a family member, I love this game despite all its faults. However, I must warn some more "active" players. This is not a typical game! This plays much more like a movie or a book than a game. In Cyberpunk 2077 you get to experience the world through the eyes of V much more than you get to play god as you would in may RPGs.

    I know how it sounds... but honestly. I cannot remember a single game in history that can top CP77 in terms of:
    +Story
    +Immersion
    +Graphics
    +Memorable moments
    +Architecture
    +Facial expression
    +Voice acting

    Never before have a game world captivated me so much that I genuinely miss spending time with a bunch of lines of codes, the characters and the moments they bring are simply cutting edge.

    That said, there are a bunch of things the game does so bad as well:
    -Thousands of bugs/glitches, both quest breaking and immersion breaking (at times)
    -Horrible looting/clothing system. Why on earth go for a washed down WoW type loot system? Awful decision. Makes the loot feel totally forgettable and redundant. Every new item is just another number, its rarity or type doesn't matter, only the dps/armor
    -Awful driving mechanics
    -Highly questionable skill trees and power-progression, feels both under-worked and underwhelming
    -Way too arbitrary cybernetics, many of which are just another cheap "perk". Double jump was one the few ones that actually felt like a real cybernetic upgrade.. but even that one should have displayed new legs to reflect the change in bio.

    SO.... All said and done. It has many flaws, but despite those it delivers such a heart warming (and breaking) experience that I will never forget it.

    Thank you CPR for the best gaming experience in my life.

    Good story, great scenes, breathtaking world filling and design. But stupid mobs that spoil the sensation of good shooting. Off-balance hacking. A non-working open world (ambition is good, but a hub location would be more suitable for the game, imho). Nice summer blockbuster. But not the game we've been waiting for so long.

    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.
