    Meh...

    You’ll spend most of your time in the menus clearing through all the crap loot you pick up, or cruising through YouTube videos trying to work out how their levelling up system works. When you do “play” around in the city you’ll be amazed at how shallow it is, how lifeless the NPCs are, how boring the side missions are. Oh and there’s bugs... like, a lot of them, constant crashes.

    The story...oh my god the story. Not gonna spoil anything, but thanks to that, it ruins the phasing,
    the total freedom of immersion.

    The story quests are string together in a way that naturally you can never take a break from them and go exploring. Its always directs you right to the next story quest with **** like (alright X is waiting for you in the car right now) so even if you would have wanted to take a break and explore that one guy/girl will be there waiting for you on the side of the road for ever until you show.

    -Crafting sucks. You can only craft 1 thing at a time, which would be alright if you wouldnt need hundreds of certain items to craft guns or cloths

    -Clothing gives you armor, meaning you cant just dress up how you want unless you dont want to die from 3 shots.

    -Stealth sucks, enemies will see you through the tiniest of cracks. Hacking is redundant and pointless.

    -Melee stun locks and makes everything a breeze

    -A nicely upgraded weapon feels the same as one you loot from common enemies.

    -Characters and inconsistent as all hell. They contradict themselves all the time.

    -3 Origin stories to start with, all 3 leads to the same start/end and main character personality making it totally pointless

    -Map is filled with meaningless and boring go there beg/steal/kill/hack missions

    and I could go on and on.

    You wont feel bad skipping this over hyped ****

    I'm playing it at medium settings at 1440p on pc ( i5 3.8GHz - GTX 980 Ti ) and it's still astonishingly amazing. Can't wait to test it on ps5 with next-gen power.

    Well then, this game is a buggy hot mess. I won't lie about that, but i still enjoyed the game a **** ton. So let's go over the good, the bad and the ugly.

    The good: The characters and story were amazing in my opinion. I enjoyed almost every moment of the main storyline, i was really invested in it. I love the cyberpunk setting and I love what CD Projekt Red did with it. The combat feels good in my opinion too. Although it needs some refining but it was fun. From time to time the game is also gorgeous af especially when it rains at night. Finally the music is a full 10/10, **** i love the music in this game.

    The bad: The game isn't always beautiful. I ran it on ultra settings without RTX on and especially during the day the city could look pretty ugly. The world also feels pretty soulless. When you're just driving around not doing a mission the world feels empty and without life. Most NPC's just walk around without meaning. I would love some more liveliness in the world. In the Witcher 3 Novigrad is one of the best cities i've ever seen in a game. It felt so full of life and soul, but night city doesn't feel the same. And please ****ing add a barber or plastic surgeon. I hate not being able to change my appearance after i've created my character.

    The Ugly: oh boy the bugs and performance. God does this game have bugs and no i'm not speaking about Skyrim level bugs. I'm talking Star Citizen level bugs. In my playthrough the game has crashed once which isn't that bad, but i've encountered countless bugs. Luckily most of them aren't that bad. But some of them definitely are and because of the bugs i've had to play extra careful the whole time. I've also had to reload old savefiles multiple times because a bug broke the game. Performance also wasn't great. Like i said earlier i played this game on ultra without RTX on and well my pc isn't really state of the art. At the bottom of this review i wrote my pc specs. On average i have between 30 and 45 fps. I know i could've turned my settings lower but i'm used to playing games with low fps from in my past and didn't wanna sacrifice the graphics. But needles to say the game does not perform well compared to others.

    So y'all are probably wondering why did you ****ing give it a 9? Well because this game besides all the bugs was definitely my type of game. I haven't enjoyed a game like this since a good while ago. The game is by far not for everyone and i truly feel sorry for everyone who has been misled by the marketing. This is a story game with a lot of choice in it, it's not a sandbox game like GTA. I knew what i was gonna get and i'm happy with what i got. Beneath the mess that this game is, is a truly wonderful game and that's why i gave it a 9. I do think CD Projekt RED will keep working on this game and making it better. So maybe wait a couple months and buy it then. This game is a prime example of a game which has been released too early.

    Even putting politics aside~~the game consistently lets me down, particularly in the RPG part.

    On my Win 10 PC MSI GE66, the game runs quite smoothly (60~120FPS) on Ultra and I have only encountered 2 bugs which could be easily resolved by reloading saves. Hence, I will only be talking about the game when it works as intended. I won't talk about bugs as I feel they are another topic.

    1. Story (main quest) is told in a good way for a scripted, interactive movie. But it undeniably fails as a RPG ---- which the game identifies as up until E3 2019

    2. We're playing a fun game, but NOT role-playing it

    3. Romances deliver only the bare minimum, severely lacking depth and width. For binary people of both genders, you have exactly 1 option. And that one does not even have depth or emotional moments much.

    4. Side contents are aplenty and feels huge in quantity!! ...except, most of them are fetch quests and clones of each other. The open world looks pretty but has nothing interesting to offer.

    5. Censorship exists even in non-censored versions. The game feels like Teen (T). A cyberpunk game that is devoid of all the sexy elements that make the genre exciting.

    6. A lot of cut content. All the noteworthy moments are exactly what has been advertised in those promotional videos prior to release.

    7. All possible endings feel rushed and not well thought out. The takeaway message leaves the player pessimistic and cynical.

    I can't believe I'm saying this, but Bethesda and BioWare (even with their recent wrong doings) now look like better game developers next to CDPR. If you don't trust the reviews, just play the game and see for yourself.

    Me?? I'm just glad this game gives me more reasons to go back and play those games that are actually worth it: Fallout 4, Fallout: New Vegas, Mass Effect Remastered, Dragon Age and Skyrim, etc.

That is at 1440p.

    The scale and atmosphere of this game is absolutely stellar, it is a masterpiece, tweak the settings until it runs well on your set up and let your self get sucked into a living, breathing, sprawling crime ridden bladerunner-esque neon metropolis.

    If you're not sure, buy it on a service that offers refunds and see what you thin. Personally, it's the best game I've played since GTA V.

    В сюжете проблема, на мой взгляд, в некой оторванности мейнквеста от побочек и изучения мира. Необязательные сюжетные задания, исследования города плохо вяжутся с основным сюжетом о срочном поиске лечения главного героя - по крайней мере в первом прохождении. Хотя многие дополнительные сюжетки раскрывают и персонажей, и вселенную намного лучше основной цепочки заданий. Удивительно, что можно вот так проскипать большую часть контента, мыслей, отсылок, творчества и завершить игру.

    С технической точки зрения - типичный "первый блин". Пока что проблемы с взаимодействием с окружением, мало активностей в мире, плохая физика автомобилей, примитивные пешеходы. Но это нормально для первой игры студии про современный мир. Движок RED будет становиться лучше с каждой новой игрой, главное не останавливаться на достигнутом.

It is clearly without a doubt this game needs some major polishing. There also needs to be a lot of content added like more weapons and clothing/armor. However not everything is that bad as how many say it is (many negative reviews are from console players or low end pc users not downplaying them, but cdpr needs to work on optimizations for them). I really like the theme, the city, the music and the story. If the bugs weren't there this would have been easily game of the year but not everything is perfect. I have been waiting for a cyberpunk theme open world game all of my life and they actually nailed it in my opinion. I just hope there is more dlc in the future (which im sure there will be) but im talking about a lot of dlc from minor things to story based or new locations. I am playing this game on a high end pc btw so my experience might differ from yours. Right now they need to work on AI and bugs though, once they sorted that out i’ll change my score to a 10 but for now its a 9. The game overall is really good and its a must buy but if you want to buy it for ps4 or xbox or for a low end pc then I suggest you wait because you will only get frustrated. Expand

    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.
