    The game is amazing and runs great on a high end PC. I have been playing for 20 hours with no issues. To all the PS4 and Xbox one console players. This is the PC version review get your negative reviews off the PC version and put them on the pathetic console version.

    Es simplemente una obra maestra. La historia te engancha desde el principio, el apartado técnico es lo mejor que se ha hecho nunca y si, tiene Bugs pero se solucionará, visto lo visto todos lo juegos tienen Bugs en su salida.... Lo estoy jugando en PC con una Rtx2070 y sorprende.

    Is it have good grafics? Yes.
    Is its combat good? Its Deus Exs combat and steals, but with flavour.
    Is its car driving good? Its Watch Dogs and The Crew level bad.
    is progression fun? Utterly.
    Is general movement nice? Daying light level, but a bit faster.
    What about voisacting, gun sound, ambient ext.? All great.
    Summery:
    If you a little **** or just normis, wait a couple patches.
    If you waited since you fininshed TW3 or even after the first trailer - buy now and enjoy. It is worth it.

Incredible plot & character development. The city really does feel like it's alive & breathing, and you can really tell they studied Mike Pondsmith's storytelling & world immensely. Don't let anyone tell you differently, the films & novels from the 80's - 90's still play a huge role in how the future will pan out politically. Having that callback to the 80's aesthetic just suits this world so perfectly. I can't express how much I cherish this experience. I hope others don't become too jaded by the fact people love to hate something hyped & popular, because this world is totally worth exploring once you have the optimal configurations. I understand people are running into issues on consoles and am optimistic it'll be patched up soon, and as frustrating as it definitely feels for them right now (similar to the launch of Witcher 3 graphically), I have hopes people will eventually be able to enjoy the experience & realize how much time and care was put into this masterpiece.

    I honestly think this might be the best game ever made. However, I do agree with some of the criticism the game is getting. It should’ve delayed the last gen ports another six months.

There are probably errors I haven’t even seen yet. However, I don’t find that to be a problem with the core experience which is one of the best games ever made.

    Personally, in game development, a game needs to come out at some point. So when people say the game should’ve been delayed another six months. Well, in that time, what are artists, story writers and people in non programming positions suppose to do. Begin to work on DLC? While the game is in development? Heavens no.

    So then what. They start thinking of adding more to the core experience, and this introduces more bugs, which the programmers then need to squash, and the cycle continues.

    Or, I guess people in non programming positions could just sit on their hands for six months getting paid to do nothing. More likely though in this situation they’d just be put on leave, and might not come back when it’s time to work on the DLC.

    The game had three separate delays. There comes a point when you just need to release it.

    A Masterpiece for sure! Playing on PC with a RTX3080 this game is just incredible. Not only is this world and the graphic ...wait for it... breathtaking! The story is thrilling and fresh and the overall atmosphere soaks you into this living world full of details. Feeling sorry for gamers on consoles and low end PCs, tho.

    Everything about this game is scam, no amount of coding and patching won't help recover that. The foundation itself is full of errors.
    Dead Npcs, unrealistic everything, no interact able 'open world', false promise of night city, infinite broken features. Happens when 2/3 of budget was spent after marketing.

And while I do think this game is not where it should be, I tend to focus more on the entire game than just the bugs and crashes. I have played through 3 times, using multiple saves to get the various endings and following each life path and its different effects on general gameplay. Let's start off with Update 1.04, which was a MASSIVE fix to a lot of issues this game had. Graphics, shades, and lighting changers made the game feel closer to what was promised, and to what was expected. Obviously this isn't what everyone wanted, but many of those people expected PC level performance on their 7 year old console. Aside from that, there were significantly less crashes and bugs than when released. I still get the occasional crash here and there, but now there's more gamete in between. Controls and gameplay wise is somewhere in the middle. Firearms are good for an RPG, as long as your expectations are realistic for controllers (its not a FPS at heart, dont set the bar that high). The AI for enemies can be strange at times, where some just stand totally still and don't react to you at all. There are boxing missions similar to those in Witcher 3, but the entire thing is clunky (perhaps due to the First Person Perspective). Storytelling and Voice Acting is by far the best part about the game.  Personally, I preferred the Female VA for V, as I believe she does a better job at conveying and expressing emotions in a wider range than the male VA. Keanu Reeves' acting can fall a little bland at times, but that could be less of issue and more of a personal gripe. The 3 Life Paths were constructed perfectly, based on the unique dialog options. More often than not, whenever I felt like V should know certain information about a topic, a few seconds later that very thought comes up as a text option.


    Crafting, Upgrading, and Personalization is great for thjs game. It sucks you're stuck in first person the majority of the game, but the photo mode adds a significant amount of options to really get that badass shot. The game could go for a transmog system, as getting to end game was more about the mix-match of random pieces that don't go together at all.


    In my opinion, CD Project Red did a fantastic job, and the reviews that put the game 4 or lower is more out of frustration with the graphics and bugs than it is a carefully considered performance of the entire game. CDPR did, however, put themselves in a bind by releasing it on previous generation consoles, and only because the game was TOO ambitious. Would there have been a massive outcry if they stuck to PC, Stadia, and Next Gen? Absolutely, a lot of fans would be livid, but now they put themselves in a very controversial spot where they either cut out a significant amount of their fan base, ordelay it to optimize it for those fans (at the cost of a very significant outcry). They were damned whether or not they delayed it to fix issues, or released it as it was.

    The start of this game is not perfect, that's a fact. Bugs appear. However, this is fixable and knowing CDPR will soon be over with some major problems.

In addition, I play on a PC and a very old one, 90% of the hardware is eight years old. I only replaced the graphics card with the GTX 2070 Super because the old cards were no longer supported by drivers and Windows 10 was making me big problems because of it. I play medium details in FullHD. I highly recommend this game, it will only get better with time as CDPR will introduce improvements and new content to the game. The game is huge and has a lot to offer. I approach it, as with any RPG, very calmly and first spend time exploring and side missions. Only then will he become interested in the main plot. I just started the game, I'm after 12 hours of gameplay. During this time, maybe I did 20% of the side missions in one district? I like crafting, I spend a lot of time on it, sneaking can be demanding, hacking has great potential, although you have to learn how to use it efficiently. Hand-to-hand combat can be chaotic at first, but rewarding. The shooting mechanics are at a good level, you have to remember that this is an RPG, not a FPS. It suits me personally. The sounds are at a very high level, both the music and the sounds of the surroundings and fighting. Acting at a high level. Character development is very interesting and encourages you to experiment. The mechanics of driving could slightly improve, so far it is not bad, but you have to be careful while driving so that you do not skid at every turn. Night City is alive and you want to be its resident. The game immerses very well. I give this game 9/10. I receive one point for a large number of bugs. Once they are fixed, my grade will also increase. I recommend it with a clear conscience. Expand

I’m having a super fun time getting into guns with a silence revolver and doing big headshot criteria and then finishing guys off with a machine pistol. I haven’t gotten to far into the story as of yet but all the side missions, gigs, jobs and just all the chatter of random people walking the streets and the crowds that form has been good it gives the game a sense of life. I’ve heard people say the driving in the game isn’t good, I haven’t had a problem with it and to me it’s seems to be dependent on what you are driving. I love the motorcycles compared to the big tank cars or the small beaters which I think are hard to drive. As for bugs on the PC or technical issues I haven’t seen any or had anything that sticks out to me as game breaking. I’m glad I bought it and I’m gonna be happy to spend a lot more time in this world. Expand

    This game has been everything it was hyped to be. Tons of stuff to do, looks gorgeous, and is a ton of fun! Has some bugs, but for less than a week old that's to be expected, and none of them are game breaking (most certainly blows out anything any other AAA developer has released in the last decade). I'd recommend the game to my friends, but they've all already got it too!

    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.
