    21,7 hours into game. There are some bugs. None of bugs and glitches I have encountered were critical. All questwise bugs were solved by reload. i7, 32gb ram and gtx 1080 = average of 58 fps.

    People are crying that the game doesn't look good on the old generation and poor hardware. Unfortunately, sometimes you have to replace the equipment with new ones and productions on the border of the old and new generation have a problem with the oceans and hate.

    So after playing 9 hours of cyberpunk 2077 I can honestly say I’m not super disappointed (PS4 user by the way). I have my issue with the game sure like most gamers do. After hearing about the glitches of the game it killed some hype for me going in, but it’s still giving me good experience, nonetheless. The story within the 9 hours that I have played is cohesive and engaging. As a RPG gameSo after playing 9 hours of cyberpunk 2077 I can honestly say I’m not super disappointed (PS4 user by the way).

The story within the 9 hours that I have played is cohesive and engaging. As a RPG game a lot of mechanics can be overwhelming much like the braindancing and quickhacking functions , but they do service purpose and with time an use you do get more comfortable using them.
    The driving is a bit stiff, but with more time played you do unlock better handling vehicles plus there is the fast travel option. The weapons are very cool and much like the driving can be a pain to use, but upgrades to V attributes weapons become easier and fun to use. Overall cyberpunk 2077 is very ambitious and immersive game that need more time to be developed.

    Probably the best game I have played in last 3 years.
    The good:
    1) The world feels alive. 2) Characters are written so good, that it's hard not to care about them. 3) A lot of interesting mechanics. 4) Many different ways to beat the game. 5) Story keeps you engaged until the end. 6) Side quests are well-written and do not get boring. The bad: 1) A lot of bugs, A LOT. I mean it

    Honest review of Cyberpunk 2077.

    Cyberpunk 2077 was easily one of my most anticipated games of this decade, so like many others I was at large on the hype train for the game's release. After countless delays and many years of waiting we finally got to play the game and after experiencing the title for myself I'm left both amazed and severly dissappointed.

    For starters Cyberpunk 2077 is a great game with a fantastic story and beyond stunning visuals, but being a triple-A RPG requires more than just story and graphics to succeed in my books. I finished the game's main story line in roughly 25 hours and was afterwards thrown in to a huge open world with countless sidequests and.. and.. that's about it. I was surprised by how immensly empty the city feel. There's a huge lack of activities and RPG elements that're so important for a game of this genre. Repeatable activities such and racing and various other mini games are what really adds to an open world game, but there's hardly any. Not only that, but things like barbers, car customization, weapon customization and other elements that give the player more choices and freedom are also missing. I don't expect CP77 to be the next GTA, because it's not. It's an RPG, but it's a very lackluster RPG without these basic features.

    Secondly, there's the bugs.. and holy sh*t.. this game is buggy. I get that they kinda forced themselves in a corner where they couldn't delay the game further, but I now understand just how badly it needed yet another delay. Found it extremely difficult to enjoy the main storyline without constantly having to worry about things glitching and quests bugging out because they did.. they did very often. Hopefully over the next couple of months they'll sort most of the crucial bugs out, but it'll take a massive amount of work.

    That being said I did still enjoy the game overall, but these issues kept me feeling like it could've been and should've been a lot better than it is. I'm extremely eager to see what the coming months/years will bring to Cyperpunk 2077, both in terms of DLC and bug fixes, but for now I can't give the game a higher score, despite how badly I want to.

    I aware of technical issues. I already played more than 22h on gog and I hadn't crashes at all. I have about 30-40 fps with random short dropdowns to 26fps on my gtx 1060 6Gb card.
    For me it's good enough to play.

    I gave this grade due to optimization and bugs. I play on a PC, videocard radeon rx 580 8 GB, processor ryzen 5 2600, 16 GB of RAM - the game is buggy at the minimum graphics settings. Driving and shooting with such drawdowns makes these activities uncomfortable and you constantly pay your attention to it. It's just disgusting to drive a car, I don't even want to talk about motorcycles.

    A SLAP IN THE FACE to everyone who didn't want to play this game yet since not only is it good and gorgeous, it's not THAT buggy. (there, my Jim Sterling cameo is assured)

    Damn well close to perfect if you're into open world games and like cyberpunk/sci-fi themes. At times you forget the game world is based on a tabletop released in the 1990s. Small idiosyncrasies, such as radio and tv stations, or the very weak 'net' can occasionally throw you off and feel outdated, but again; this is not our reality's future, this is cyberpunk; it needs reminding since at times the two feel so intertwined at times they become a blur.

    The story is also pretty good, as far as i've gotten; a bit predictable (or maybe it's the spoilers in gameplay previews), but what really impresses is not the overall character arch that you embark on, but the other characters you encounter, their emotions and struggles. The animation for main quest characters (and some side-quest ones) are very well done. At times it not only sounds but also looks like a real human being you're talking to.

    And yes, the visuals are stunning. I was blessed with a GTX upgrade before the release, and if you were on the fence for this i highly recommend upgrading. I was blown away by the looks of the game; then again this was also a pretty big leap for me in hardware. Even if you're not into graphics though an upgrade might be required, as it seems to be a pretty big hog. Don't expect this to run smooth or look good on older hardware.

    The game is also more on the buggy side of things but honestly nothing horrible. Major bugs encountered i could count on one hand. The most you will encounter are visual glitches and UI bugs and I never had to reload a save because of a bug. Hell GTA Online feels buggier than this (with it's recursive loading bs).

    The side missions can get a bit repetitive and the map is hard to follow at times. I also don't like how close the minimap feels when you're driving and often times i've missed a turn because i was just too fast and didn't see it. A zoomed out minimap when driving feels like a must. The existance of stats on gear also means that how i want to look and how i actually look are two different things entirely. So it's not an ultra-perfect experience, but honestly it comes damn close for myself.

    On a pc this game is a 10/10.

    On a ps4 - probably a 2/10

    Yeah there are some gamebugs - and the world could use another 6 months of development time - but even as is - its goty material.

    Seriously its miles ahead of the last of us 2 in terms of story telling, and if you have a rig that can run it - its a master piece.

    Playing this game on a higher end PC is where it really shines.

    Though during launch it has bugs that I have experienced, I've yet to experience one that breaks the game albeit I have a high tolerance for bugs in video games. The game mechanics are fun, mostly immersive and there is a high ceiling for building a character that can approach a situation in combat in a variety of ways.

    The best part about this experience is easily the world building and characters you meet along the way. Rivaling that of the Witcher 3. The side characters you are introduced to are phenomenal and hopefully CDPR expands on some of them in the coming future. Noting that CDPR games do tend to get better with age, I do expect this game to iron out it's issues and implement QoL features that this game is missing. Mostly having to do with customization and some immersion issues, namely that you cannot edit your "V" after the very first character creator.

    It's an old style Action RPG (like Skyrim, a 10 year old game) with a very pleasant visual impact and wonderful setting, Night city is visually beautiful.
    After seeing numerous Action RPGs released after Skyrim that introduced new mechanics, I would have expected Cyberpunk to be the same level as the modern RPGs.

    It's an old style Action RPG (like Skyrim, a 10 year old game) with a very pleasant visual impact and wonderful setting, Night city is visually beautiful.
    After seeing numerous Action RPGs released after Skyrim that introduced new mechanics, I would have expected Cyberpunk to be the same level as the modern RPGs.

    in essence it is like an empty shell and inside this shell is missing many things that I have written here:

    - No animation present in item loots.

    - Lootable objects in the game world are not subject to ownership rules, you can take anything without anyone telling you or doing anything.

    - Related to the first point: total lack of physical property boundaries where objects are contained, except for the areas where there are enemies, but that is due to enmity towards people and not from the place where they reside.

    - The only "containers" where you can take items are the crates and lockers. In 2077 probably the sideboards, wardrobes etc. they were not used.

    - Most of the buildings are not explorable. You can only visit two / three floors in buildings that are 100,000 miles tall. The elevators were probably poorly designed in 2077.

    - Economy of Night city is close to non existing. Besides cyberware, implants and mods, there is not really a lot of reason to spend money on anything.

    - No robbery system in the open world. Only in quests.

    - Possibility to change the equipment in combat and crafting. It makes no sense that you can change clothes/weapons or crafting during a fight.

    - Objects and equipment (cyberware, weapons, clothes etc.) do not wear out and do not need to be repaired.

    - Eating too much or too little does not affect the physique (even a simple physical health system like that of red dead redemption 2 was enough).

    - The police don't catch you. It kills you!

    - The skill branch is poorly constructed because you can train skills by having the relative attribute low. For example it doesn't make sense that I can raise quickhacking skills if I have 3 in intelligence just by doing it.

    - The skill branch is poorly constructed because to mount cyberware I need a certain level of attribute, but they are cyber enhancements for a reason right?

    - Objects are placed totally randomly. For example it is possible to find ammunition next to a sandwich stand.

    - No system of upgrading or customization or repair of machines and motorcycles. To repair the car, just leave the car in a street and turn the corner of the street and call it remotely.

    - The levels are related only to our character. No other characters in the game have this characteristic, or at least it is not visible.

    - Badly constructed reputation system. There is no specific reputation for every gang in Night City. The reputation system is just another limitation to installing cyberware and doing some stuff. For what reason?

    - The choice to use specific skills in combat or to play in one way rather than another is not linked to a deep system of enemy characteristics but only to a personal choice, in fact with a simple gun, a lot of healing and a lot of ammunition you can face and kill anyone.

    - There are few worldly activities.

    - NPCs don't have a life of their own, the people of Night City are just hardcovers.

    - Talks with random NPCs absent.

    - Reactions of NPCs are strange.

    - Moral alignment of the character absent.

    Awful AI, boring and broken combat, totally forgettable characters, rudimentary dialog choices.
    Not to mention the copious amount of technical problems which led to many reloads and restarts to be able to move forward.

    Over promised and under delivered in basically every aspect of the game, besides the art style.

    Pretty great game, despite some bugs, much less then FO 4 and even less then Valhalla(Specially as it costs half of Valhalla's price!),
    it is a cool game, and it isn't that bad optimized as i though it would be, it's running beautifully on my GTX 970 on medium settings with something around 40/45 fps.

    Now just have to beat the game and see if the end is breath taking though!

    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.
