    Soft locked 12 hours into the game, can't progress any further, tried everything from loading all my past save to modifying the save file itself. pointless garbage excuse of a game, bugs and glitches every corner, AI that make GTA 3 look a next gen game and a pitiful performance for the visuals.
    what a waste of money.

    This game has disappointed me, there are bugs every 10 minutes that prevent me from continuing with the story, the textures do not load and the enemies do not shoot me, I have killed a boss completely afk on pc

    2 miles wide, and two inches deep.

    A gorgeous game that would have a compelling story if it weren't so obvious most of one story was cut and mish-mashed into another story. RPG-lite at best, stat trees do nothing dynamic to gameplay and ultimately mean nothing. Gameplay itself is shallow and uninspired. It seems like a lot of successful ideas were cobbled together to make a game

    It feels completely unfinished and far too boring in areas that never feel fleshed out.

    . I would suggest either using a top end pc or not getting the game at all. I reached out to cdpr for a refund request and have yet to hear back. The game is unplayable. Cdpr are liars and theives. Do not waste your money please. I am giving 2 points, 1 for the semi interesting story and 1 for the character panam.

    Like the witcher 3 cyberpunk 2077 delivers a great rpg experience with so many great side quests and a decent story.However, if you don't have a good hardware you need to wait until cd projekt red releases a new update to improve the performance.

    One of the best games I've played personally. The story/writing is phenomenal the gameplay it's self is quite good. Personally the bugs haven't affected me and I played it on a day one xbox one. This being said I don't know if I've been lucky in encountering bugs or the bugs are being heavily overstated.

    Absolutely fantastic game on PS4 Pro after the 1.04 patch. No crashes in 20 hours, graphics and framerates are fine and exceed what I expected to squeeze out of my trusty PS4. I don't understand how CDPR is getting so much heat for releasing a briliant game.

    Hugely unfinished, horrible game-breaking bugs, poor performance, tons of console to pc port problems. Should have delayed 6+ months.

    That's not even going into the many incredibly mediocre and uninspired game mechanics. Most of which are shallow and half-implemented. Even if all the bugs and options were fixed, this game is a 6/10 at best. The world feels more hollow than any other

    The world feels more hollow than any other open-world rpg I've played. I've spent more time encountering situations where I go "wait, I can't go in there?" or "why can't I do this?" for basic stuff.

    Your choices mean little to nothing in-game, the world doesn't change, your origin has no impact on the game. The whole story arc is supposed to be a rags to riches scenario and yet you can't even change/upgrade your apartment, can't join clans, or work up into a corpo. All of this character development happens for you during the flash-forward montage at the start of the game. Where you get to watch all that wonderous content they scrapped.

    It's honestly a joke. I had zero expectations for this game and it's still a disappointment. Witcher 3 had many of these same issues on release as well. They haven't improved at all.

    The pure essence and with that I mean side and main content ist masterful and definitely a 10/10, but there are some aspects which fall short in comparison and I'm sure that if this were a linear story game or a rockstar open world type of thing, that it would have been without a doubt a 10/10, since genres like those are centered around the campaign, but cyberpunk is an OPEN WORLD RPG.The pure essence and with that I mean side and main content ist masterful and definitely a 10/10, but there are some aspects which fall short in comparison and I'm sure that if this were a linear story game or a rockstar open world type of thing, that it would have been without a doubt a 10/10, since genres like those are centered around the campaign, but cyberpunk is an OPEN WORLD RPG. Don't get me wrong, I love the open world of cyberpunk, it's verticality and amazing complex structures, but Cyberpunk 2077 fails to deliver in some simple key areas, that are fundamentally important for the sake of immersion, like being able to go to the barber, sit in a bar and have a drink or two, or generally being able to interact with people like Red Dead Redemption 2, with that I mean antagonising people, killing, attacking, steeling from them and as a consequence the Npc's reacting accordingly, however in Cyberpunk 2077 Npc's are merely placeholders with no AI whatsoever, if you shoot nearby or attempt to aim your weapon at them, Npc's won't try to counter your attack nor will they show any kind of reaction to your actions, regardless of what you did, they will just start to crouch and despawn after you lost sight of them, the same goes for traffic as well, if you try to block a road Npc's wont try to drive around your car, they will just stay and wait in line for you to move, because they have no AI whatsoever.
    I understand that these Games can't be compared since the level of scale and immense number of Npc's is not comparable to Rdr2 but games like Gta 5 or even Watch Dogs Legion have large numbers of Npc's and delivered better.
    This was one negative aspect out of a dozen. The combat is mediocre, maybe it will get better the more I progress, the variety of gameplay and replayability is amazing, although I'm a bit sceptical whether or not the lifepath choice makes a substantial difference or not. Well, since I haven't got all day I would like to wrap it up in a few sentences. The game is good, but fails to deliver in basic areas which have become the industry standard, even though AI is terrible the world still feels alive, in every corner there is something happening, occasionally you will hear Npc's talking about the personal matters and police investigating crime scenes, arresting criminals, gang wars and more. Ithink that it is very clear that the base consoles had a negative effect on Cyberpunk 2077 and that this game should have come out only for the Series x, Ps5 and Pc.

The visuals in promotional Materials looked stunning, and the overall general concept for the game seemed compelling. After roughly 20ish hours I can say the game has certainly exceeded what I expected in some areas, while failing to deliver in areas I thought to be easy water to tread in modern open world games.

    For instance, the personal story and set up for the game is very compelling. You meet some interesting characters and start with a friendship that feels earned, although I really want more interpersonal relationship development in a game like this. Contrast that with some of the most abysmal driving I've played in the past few decades. Every car controls like a boat on icy water, with traffic that doesn't really feel like its being driven by proper AI. That was the early letdown for me, and a common theme in the game, a lot of systems that could be better, not the worst, but really in need of improvement.

    You couple the myriad of underdeveloped games systems with a UI that isn't easy to read, and bug after bug after bug, and you get cyberpunk. I have some hopes that CD Projekt will patch the game into a better state but as it stands, a 6 is the best I can give it. It has a lot of potential, and has provided me with a healthy serving of genuine fun, but becomes a drag to play when things just don't work right.

How the Mighty have fallen. I think what hurts me the most is all the promises they said about the game. So much missing content. I have never written a review before but I felt I had to write something to express how I feel about the release. I will add more to the score as they add the missing content back to the game. Expand

    There's been a lot of controversy with this game, so some of that unfortunately needs to be addressed before I can even review the game. Such are the times we live in.

    * Transphobia: They could have allowed players to simply choose their gender, not determine it by voice. An oversight, but they do allow choice in genitals/gender. The game does objectify trans characters & exaggerate
    There's been a lot of controversy with this game, so some of that unfortunately needs to be addressed before I can even review the game. Such are the times we live in.

    * Transphobia: They could have allowed players to simply choose their gender, not determine it by voice. An oversight, but they do allow choice in genitals/gender. The game does objectify trans characters & exaggerate sexual presentation ...& everyone else: a trans character on a poster might have bulging biceps & a heavy crotch. Heteronormative characters are similarly exploited. That is the point of satire, and especially in this capitalist, violent, sexualized, & technophilic dystopia. You decide, do you want a sterilized environment that pretends that humanity will not use capitalism, sexuality, fear, & bias to its advantage?

    * Asian **** In our world today, technological improvements do frequently come from Japan, China, South Korea, Vietnam - & all these have their own approaches to it: in production, in art and aesthetic, in advances. Cyberpunk supposes that this expands, and it does pre-suppose that Japan leads in that innovation. Whether we agree that is realistic or not is beside the point. Cyberpunk is a fiction. The answer, then, is to bring in the multiplicity of languages, diversify the representation & depiction, make them visible. That. Is. Exactly. What. CDProjekt. Has. Done.

    Art/Visuals: stunning. The same quality as Witcher 3, though the aesthetic is very different. I don't find myself gaping in awe at the beauty as much, but then I don't really do that with any other AAA game, and it is a dystopian world. The eye flits from thing to person to light, wondering at the activity, engaging in the city life around me. My $1000 PC, a year old, handles it all pretty well, without many hiccups, on Medium Ray Tracing. The clothing looks wet too often though, & a little plasticky. 9.0/10

    Gameplay: It's taken some getting used to because of the variety. Hacking, shooting, fighting, melee with shooting weapons, targeting, cyberware action hacking (different than regular terminal hacking), sneaking, roleplaying choices, racing, recon, throwables, explosive environments, police responses, random encounters and jobs, stores - goodness. Lions & tigers & bears oh my. I find myself having fun in one way, then another, then another, then coming back to the story - taking my time getting to know both Night City & my character. 9/10

    Character Creation/Development: This part is quite a joy. I enjoy the two-part leveling system of Street Cred & Levels. The levels work much the same as they did in Witcher 3, opening up item use. Street Cred does a similar thing, as do stats; skill choices require stats at certain levels. In the end, it drives you to think very carefully about your choices, & the game style you want, but it doesn't punish you for not being a robot of efficiency. I play on Hard & I've shifted the focus of my stats more than once. The physical character creation is detailed & flexible, allowing male, female, & trans characters; like BG3. One thing that is worth mentioning is that your choices in stats have many opportunities to matter. This *includes* dialogue. Really, where are all the people that trash first person shooters for useless stealth mode or forced stealth mode? No? Silence? 9.5/10

    Story: It doesn't evoke the same emotional response as Witcher 3, even Witcher 2, Vampire: Bloodlines, and other great great titles. We'll see. I do appreciate certain characters. Perhaps if people spent a little less time presenting their cool side, or their BFG and their BA threads, and more their human side, I'd be pulled in. But, that's the world we live in, eh? Still, the human disassociation takes its toll on the storyline. I think there's room to do both. Otherwise, story progresses well. Not too predictably, lots of options, lots of wit, lots of character. 8.7/10

    World: The world comes to life beautifully. Characters speak in multiple languages with correct inflection. I'm not used to seeing such attention to culture & language except for certain AC games. Architecture varies across districts. Atmosphere changes across the day & its changing lighting, in various rooms, down varied alleyways. The size is quite large - on the level of GTA5 or so. It truly feels like a city - not a few blocks to provide the impression of a city. One hears snatches of arguments, lovers' spats, notes a couple staring at the sunset on a construction zone overlooking the city, radio personalities reminiscent of V: Bloodlines & Deb of the Night (OK, nobody is as good as Deb). Sound scapes, visual scapes - they come together beautifully. They give you useful information, flavor, opportunities to engage - all of it. 9.7/10

    Total: 9.3/10 (possibly 9.0 - 9.5; I am, after all, only on Act I)

    Here's to more of this kind of video gaming. Let's not destroy the things we love most because they don't meet our ideal.

    I haven't finished the main story yet. But the huge amount of gameplay/immersion breaking bugs, poor AI, and performance issues even on high-end pc all keep bashing my experience to the negative side. The marketing of the game during the last two years promised a lot and only little was delivered in the current version 1.04. Overall, CP2077 is rushed and it is so unfortunate.

    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.
