    I'm about 50 hours in and - for me - the game's great. The writing, characters and immersion are superb, the setting is absolutely stunning (I expected nothing less in those areas and I'm impressed nonetheless).

The main story is captivating to me so far, though I have not finished it yet. I was more surprised with the gameplay though - for me it's really fun, if not groundbreaking. The first few character levels are a bit more uninspiring but I managed to develop my V quite quickly in a way that suited my style of play, and the three different weapon "styles" (power, tech and smart) offer enough variability to make gunplay more interesting. Playing on Hard difficulty, I'm pleased with the feel of combat - enemies (of similiar level) are definitely not bullet sponges and they deal quite a lot of damage, so combat to me feels dangerous and satisfying. Driving is a bit whacky with some vehicles but honestly it's not that bad. Driving a motorbike in first person through the city is really fun though. There are bugs, but in my experience way less than I expected based on reddit outrage. Honestly for me it's way less buggy than something like Fallout 4 or God forbid NWN2 at launch. Police "chase" system is a garbage dumpster fire, have to agree there. I don't much care because the game is not about shooting random people in the streets, but the system is really bad. It can be easily patched though. Basically zero performance problems for me (AMD Ryzen 7 4800H, 16GB RAM, NVIDIA RTX 2060 6GB) and the game looks beautiful (playing with ray tracing medium+ settings). I'm not giving a 10 because it has some issues, but 9 points is an accurate description of my experience just after launch. I believe that with patches and good DLC's the game is more than capable of being a 10/10 gaming experience. That being said it sure sucks to play this game on PS4, but the PC version is great.

    If you can't wait to play this game I would highly recommend picking it up.

    This game did need a bit more dev time but over the coming months CDPR have promised to fix the bugs that some players are experiencing.

    I would give this game a 10/10 if the majority of the bugs were fixed, but as there are quite a few visual bugs I would give this game a 9/10.

    I am playing with an RTX 3070 and Ryzen 7 3700x.

    Playing on RTX ultra settings and this is easily one of the best open world RPG’s I have played to date.
    Yes there are a few bugs but in 20 hours + gameplay I have seen a handful, nothing game breaking though and ALL open world games have a few bugs.
    The world is both stunning and immersive with LOADS to see and do. Highly recommend if you love sci fi and open world role playing games.

    Great gameplay mechanics, solid storytelling, enjoyable combat and interesting character development. Immersive world building where I feel I'm a part.

    I have not experienced many bugs myself on PC, so I cannot speak to that aspect of the experience. Definitely a game worth playing in the genre.

    Pros
    + Open and living world. (City is amazing, you can feel that you are in a dystopian world, and I think this is one of the most important thing in a video game.
    + Character customizations, weapons, clothes etc.
    + Story is perfect
    + Game is fun, you don't want to quit
    + Map is very big. There are lots of things to discover
    + Even the side quests have very good stories.

    Cons
    - Glitches, bugs
    - Performance issues for consoles and low pc's
    - Skill Tree is meaningless. There are lots of skills but game is not that long.
    - Biggest problem, AI. It shouldnt be like this in 2020. After we experienced RDR2 AI, it's not acceptable.

    I'm neutral about combat system. I like it but some people says its not good.

    In summary, game is worth for its money and it will be game of the year for sure. But not the best game in the world, not the best rpg ever. This game has a lot of potential. If they can correct issues than it can be a lot better. So in my oppinion you shouldnt refund it yet. Have fun!

CDPRed Launch of the game: 2/10. What I mean here is the CD Red should be straight forward from the begining and realstic dont rleae the game on all platforms same time and dont release it if its not rea. The game itself for me is 9/10. P.S Please stop comparing the game to GTA 4 or 5 at the moment, or Watch Dogs as you sound like you would juse wake up yesterday. If you really want to compare it to GTA or Watch Dogs then ask yourself. When as GTA 3 released? How many years did Rochstar had to make this game look like GTA 5. And BTW are you forgetting how buggy and not playable GTA4 and 5 was at the start? Than Watch Dogs one of the most criticized game on the Lunch. Watch Dogs 1 was nearly not playable after several months of patching. And it still not patched correctly until today.. If someone really want to compare those gamse and the time frame how the companies spent on one Franchise than look what CD RED did with Witcher 1 and compare it to Witcher 3. So if they patch Cyberpunk 2077 (What Rockstar needed to do with all GTAs and Ubisoft did with Watch Dogs then abandoned it) that game will be great, and then when they colelct all the experience to release a second Cyberpunk it's a start for a long term Franchise.

    The ending of this game, is that type of ending where it leaves a void inside you, and you don't know what to do next besides listening to music and reading the lore. It's literally breathtaking, amazing. Not just the main quest, but the side ones too, there's a lot of memorable side histories.

    Now for my steam copy and pasted review:

    First of all, I'm not at all in favor of what CDPR did with the launch of the game, specially with the console players. I'm sad that they can't experience what I've just experienced.

    So, what I've to say about the game...

    First the gameplay. It's simple but fun, reminds me a lot of Deus Ex, in a good way... the hacks, the gunplay... There's a lot to improve tho, the looting system is not good, you pick up every single item you see in front of you, and when you can't carry anything more, you start to get rid of what you don't need, and then repeat. The clothing system has the same problem as every other open world rpg with gear levels... you put what it's bet on your character and until it starts to look like a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ clown, they need a Transmog system ASAP.

    The history is what kept me engaged in the game for so long. The way they manage the relationship between Johnny and V is amazing. I'm not going to tell spoilers here, but this is what will keep you playing too... every single dialog line from Johnny made me laugh a little, or feel anger for his personality, sadness for what he's been through, and so on.

    There are two types of side quests in the game, the Gigs (that can be easily compared to the witcher contracts in The Witcher 3), and the normal side quests. The Gigs are just mercenary jobs, the majority are pretty simple and repetitive, but there's some that shine, that requires some thought into it.
    The side quests are pretty good, what we could expect from CDPR... there are some side quests that are really memorable, with shocking stories, or just some laughs.

    Honestly, for me, I would start a new playthrough right now, but I'm going to wait for some patches or when they start releasing the dlcs.

    I highly recommend the game... it's been some time since I don't get emotional with the ending of a game... the last one that did this to me was The Witcher 3, and prior to it, Life is Strange.

A lot of people expected the game to be a GTA type, but its an RPG and most of the game I was just immersed in the conversations, and getting to know the characters, their stories rather than non-stop shooting everyone up. It is a buggy game, and sometimes it's straight-up annoying, I can't attest to the PS4, Xbox One versions as I played on stadia, but the glitches are apparent - driving doesn't feel fullfilling with the starting car, although I haven't tried the more expensive cars which could be more rewarding. Bugs like picking up items of the ground doesn't always work, in the main mission a car was flipped a few times, but it works when you reload it. Stealth mechanics feel basic, shooting feels rewarding when you hit it with the controller, and melee combat is clunky but functional and actually my preferred way of playing on the controller. The movement mechanics feel clunky, and there isn't as much flow as if you played a CS GO game but its understandable. The game really focuses on RPG elements, visuals and music. As with the bugs, I am sure that CD Project Red will iron them out completely in 3-4 months time, and maybe rebuild some game mechanics. The main story is amazing, and the characters will stay in your mind for a long while after you finish the game :)

This game has had more love put into it than any game I have ever played, Sure it’s not perfect, but every aspect of its design is more enticing than any game I have played.

    To those on the edge trying to decide whether to take the leap of faith and purchase this game, Note this: this game was pressured to be released by majority of the users that have given it poor reviews. This game is a work of art which even I would call unfinished, and yet it is the future of RPGs, it is also more than worth your investment and your support.
    I hope that you will be able to set aside the grievances of the few and work past the bugs to experience once of the most beautifully crafted games to have ever been created.

    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.
