    GTX1060 6GB, I7-8750h, 16 GB RAM. Totally unplayable. Disgusting optimization. Average FPS below 30 with a lot of drops and game crashes. And that's on low settings, definitely not worth to buy at the moment

    I think it really depends on what machine you're playing this game on. I 100% agree that the game is undercooked even on PC but it does not deserve a score below 7. Story and characters are great, environment is very immersive, music is awesome. You can see the amount of hard work that went into this game.

    However, [A] Tons of bugs [B] NPCs are just so dumb that it breaks immersion

    game is actually pretty damn good, yet it is short and it is about 35 hours story mode, with side story it could go to 50 hours and if you really squeeze the game it can go to 70 hours, this 70 hours is full of action, story, and quality.

    O jogo em si é bom, porém, é apenas mais um jogo bom. Não é aquele jogo que faz diferença na minha galeria de jogos, é apenas mais um que eu gostei de jogar. Não há nada de realmente inovador ou que faça ser uma experiência revolucionária, além de não ter diversas funções prometidas durante o desenvolvimento do game.

    A hollow, broken experience.

    I had really high hopes for this game, but it's just plagued by issues. First: issues with FPS, I find this is an issue with all AMD processors. This should not have shipped in that state. 2nd: Numerous visual bugs. Put on hat, look in mirror (in the first 20 minutes or so of the game) now I have no hair at all. Wth? Not to mention a weird naked man

    I had really high hopes for this game, but it's just plagued by issues.

    First: issues with FPS, I find this is an issue with all AMD processors. This should not have shipped in that state.

    2nd: Numerous visual bugs. Put on hat, look in mirror (in the first 20 minutes or so of the game) now I have no hair at all. Wth? Not to mention a weird naked man that would appear on the back of my bike randomly

    3rd: Poor AI, literally have seen enemies phase in and out of existence, and the AI is awful. I had to turn the difficulty in the game to near max for a semi-enjoyable experience.

    Other issues abound, lifeless feeling NPCs, very poor romance options, and for a game that was hyped as wearing it's sexuality on it's face, it does a very poor job of the racy content. Oh a flash of breast, how risque. The Witcher felt more adult than this game does. Romance options for characters are also really lacking. If they were going to go this poor on the development I'd prefer they went the outer worlds route and left them out entirely.

    This is No Man's Sky all over again, and I can only hope they do the same thing they did with that game, and work their ass off to redeem themselves and come up with an actual finished product. They currently do not have one.

    I ignored most of these issues, and I was still having an okay time, despite speccing accidentally into a build that was absolutely broken (who thought it was a good idea to have a sniper rifle that shoots and sees through walls? The balancing in this game is very poor). Then I find out there is literally a game breaking time bomb bug just waiting to destroy your savegames on PC. Your save gets over 8mb? Congratulations your save file is corrupted. No fixing it, you should just restart at this point.

    I can overlook a lot, but as my savegame (playing through normal means using the crafting system) is rapidly approaching 7mb, and their response so far has been they are looking at it, and "might" fix it, that was too far.

    When buying a game that costs 60$ I expect a polished, relatively bug free, experience. One or two, no big deal, as long as the company is going to fix them. This kind of bug is absolutely unacceptable in a AAA release. To contrast another game I have hundreds of hours on AC:Odyssey, I encountered maybe 2 bugs in my entire playthrough, and certainly my game was never in danger of just breaking.

    This was a known issue in the witcher 3 as well, so it's not like they had no idea this was going to happen. They chose to release the game in this state.

    Should they fix that, I'd say the game is probably worth around 35$ tops. This is not a 60$ quality release. I'd save my money for a sale if I were you. With the savegame bug still a problem, I wouldn't buy it at any price.

    This is the first time I've ever requested a refund for a game, but it simply isn't in a state where it should have been released.

Also, during some of the braindance missions press X to process to the next scene. These were the most annoying bugs that hampered my game play.

    Now, besides the bugs, the game is completely unbalanced, example I was able to get my handgun to hit for 50k+ however it is fun to experience.

    If your looking for a shooter, while not really interested in crafting or storyline then DO NOT buy this game, it is not boarderlands in any shape or form.
    If your interested in all the elements of a game this is an AMAZING experience. Very few games capture and maintain my interest fully, even less games have I found myself attached to the characters. To me the acting, music, sound are top notch.

    Missions seemed to be done well and felt slightly different then most boring quests, I appreciate the team for that and can tell it took time. To be honest I found myself trying to find unique gear, scattered throughout the game and then blowing heads off. If your into mass effect, fallout, the witcher, I'm sure you'll get a kick out of this game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have played the game for some 40h, already done 2 times the final mission with different final and i have to say that the game is not that good, below the expected, the story is good, the voices and narrative are mostly good, for an open world, it feels kinda of an story driven world instead of open world, at first i was playing and driving all around and when i was already with 15h, didnt want to travel by car because the city feels equal in everywere you are, driving is a mess, a little break puts the car drifting as hell and some cars almost dont turn, motorcycles the same but with more drift, fights with weapons feels quite good and the immersion of the game in first person is pretty good, characters in anyways feels like they arent really persons, because you call them and you pass by them and you cant tell anything new, feels like your talking to an robot, it is bad so simp for a person and the person feeling like a robot in the end, adult cutscenes looks pretty bad for expectation, character customization is good but could be better starting with the tattos, theres almost no tattos to choose, choosing the backstory of the char (nomad, street kid and corpo) are just different in the first steps and adds a new narrative in some dialogues but thats all, i was expecting different stories :/ , Missions sometimes feel too much boring. feelsbadman :( was expecting better Expand

    Broken buggy game that delivers only half what was promised, npc's are literally dead on streets. They vanish into thin air when you steal a car. Police teleports in front of you. They don't have working police system, this game is a joke.

CDP at least tried to add a story to each of the many extra activities but they are still rather weak and boring, I did them all and somewhere in the middle I stopped paying attention to the circumstances of these events, just go and kill everything that shoots at you.

It has better police system. NPC's on streets feel alive, they actually react to you, they don't just disappear. City in Watch_Dogs (2014) feels alive. I know that up to taste, but to me Watch_Dogs has fun missions, specially in dlc. While Cyberpunk has endless amounts of text and only half of it is maybe interesting. By the way i'm talking about Watch_Dogs PC version obviously where you can activate all the effects, etc.
    It doesn't look as good as E3 trailer, but for a 2014 game, it actually still looks very good. And this comments is not to promote Watch_Dogs, i'm just doing simple comparison between two games and taking into consideration that Watch_Dogs came out 6 years ago. So in reality Cyberpunk 2077 should be miles ahead of Watch_Dogs, but it's not. Not even close. So yeah, i think it's very clear that in terms of open-world modern city, Watch_Dogs is better open-world game than Cyberpunk 2077 and i think that just shows how bad state Cyberpunk 2077 is in.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If there is any game that deserves a 10 in my book it is definitely this one. With a massive caviat, the game comes with quite a few bugs, that might even be an understatement, but nonetheless A LOT of bugs. Bugs that would in any other game completely ruin the experience, paried with the fact that the game is demanding the same from your computer as a Crytek game would, not to name any names huh crysis. But, with all that said and done, the game as far as narrative, choices and i'll talk a little bit more about that later, and overall asthetics. The game delivers something no other game has really delivered before, some have come close, a far greater amount havn't even come close. The game's story would in any other game be it's most important part, as it pulls you in and gives you an experience. This however manages to use it's futuristic asthetic, to ampify the feel of the story and the setting to absolutely deliver a certaintly breathtaking story, that leaves me even now wanting more, even after 20+ hours sunken into it. If you have hardware that can run it on a decent setting, whichs is easier said than done, it requires a very powerfull pc. But if you manage to overlook the occational bug here and there, the game delivers something you just cant find anywhere else. It ticks all the boxes so to say. including RPG, FPS, A+ story and breathtaking aestethics paired with an incredible cast that delivers realistic and incredibly voice acting, that takes you in almost like a movie. It has a muititude of different guns and setups you can run, it has enough features to offer anybody a personal playstile. With anything from stealth to straight up brawling as if it was Call of duty, yet with so many more options.
    And for the final but not last one, too many to actually mention in a short review, the perhaps most important feature. The dialogue, paired with the option to partake in any given mission or the choice not to partake in a mission. It's completely stunning the effort that went into this game and the overall ability to do whatever you really want, play a mission your way, or dont play it all. there are a multitude of different endings opened by your decisions throughout the campaign.

    For a quick sumup. The game is absolutely stunning, both visual and auditary. It delivers some of the best storytelling i've seen in a game so far, and does it in a world with so much appeal and aestethic, it is as the hype promised a masterpiece. But it does have its flaws, more bugs than i wouild have tolerated if the game hadn't been so good, quite slow start, but it's to be expected from such a long campaign with so many choices, it needs to establish your characters position for you to really take in the storyline. overall a 10 in my book, and i hope most of you out there wil overlook the many bugs, that probably will be fixed along the way.

    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.
