    I give a 5 only because the story really did catch me. But the game crashes every time I play it. FPS drops happen too often, technically it’s a mess. CD Projekt RED I wish you the best, but this game right now doesn’t deserve any better...

    Didn’t you say Witcher 3 was the best game ever? CD Project Red took that feedback and decided to apply the same formula in a new IP. A brilliant decision actually!

A brilliant decision actually!

    “So: a boring empty open world full of smokes and mirrors but little to none to interact with, awful and unresponsive gameplay and generic enemies with dumb AIs. But most importantly: great story, amazing characters, customization and jaw-dropping graphics. Let’s do it guys! We only have EIGHT YEARS!” Exclusive and real excerpt extracted from CD Project Red board meeting.

    Nothing could go wrong really. They pumped the hype to eleven with a gigantic marketing campaign, they had **** Jonny Deep as a character (come on dude! You can’t get any cooler than that) and eight years to smoothly develop the game. So what went wrong? CD PR absurd megalomania that was.

    They promised everything to please everyone! Even with the development time they had it was impossible to deliver, so a lot of things were cut from the game: reputation system, the subway lines are in the game but can’t be used, Pacifica area was mostly cut and a f*ck ton of other things. This desire to hold everything led to Cyberpunk mismanagement in an area that couldn’t be f*cked up: its awful graphical performance.

    Game couldn’t reach 30 fps, graphics looking like something out of PS3 at best, glitches running amok, characters falling through the world... Things that can’t be unseen and can’t be masked. You can mislead your audience with a more subjective aspect like an awful gameplay if you rely on the story/characters/graphics gimmicky (hello Witcher 3). But something as flagrant as a graphical subpar performance can be perceived by the most stupid gamer on Earth. And that was their main flaw: they failed on something that couldn’t be masked; not even the totally honest and not biased critics could help CD PR on this one.

    With players frowning upon first impressions of the game, the light was shed upon the problems that were present since Witcher 3. Oh so the combat sucks? What a surprise right, I could never see this coming! I dare to say if wasn’t for the graphical performance and bugs, people would be praising Cyberpunk as much as they did with Witcher 3.

    Cyberpunk 2077 disaster is the perfect case of everything that is wrong in Triple A gaming industry. I always perceived the project as an overhyped GTA but they delivered something much worse and ruined the entire company’s reputation. Remember their bullsh*t moral grandstanding speech about microtransactions? “We leave greed to others” yeah right.

    Also I would love to salute the special dudes who pre-ordered the game despite a lot of red flags; really my boys, congratulations! The mediocrity in which the industry is depends heavily on stupid people like you to give them money. And you better hurry! The pre-orders for the new FIFA and Call of Duty already started    … Expand

    Cons: Boring world, boring vehicle action, boring combat, boring loot, ridiculous unforgivable bugs (even as late as 3/22/21) , Keanu’s phoned-in performance, Sopranos-themed voice for the male player character

    This game’s hype was legendary. Sadly, it will go down as one the biggest failures of all time, gaming or otherwise. The bugs were annoying and completely unforgivable. It was so bad that now my strategy for all future releases of CD Project Red will be to wait at least 6 months before playing any of their games, if I don’t wait long enough to buy it at a 50% discount.

    Bugs aside, I came into this experience expecting something comparable to the Witcher 3. It was not. The main character was not someone I cared about; his companions I had little empathy for. The story and side quests were not captivating. The game itself was interesting enough to keep me moderately entertained for about 10 hours. The final 20 hours were a chore, and I stopped playing for a few months after the 20 hour mark. The only thing I liked about this game were the romance options. The relationship-building via quest chain was more fleshed out than other titles.    … Expand

    I have to be completely honest, i didn't like it and it might be my most hated game of all time. It was promised to be something extremely new and cool, but in reality it doesn't have even most basics systems that 2001 video games had.

    But underneath this is an extremely memorable cast of characters (with a special menyion to Keanu Reeve's performance as Johnny Silverhand), a breathtaking world (from a distance), fun driving mechanics & a stellar story. I myself finished my playthrough with my first ever bad ending across any game & felt more empathy & heartbreak than in any game ever before.

Would I recommend it? No. I would wait a year until all the bugs have been fixed, there is more polish (no pun intended) and hopefully some more content is added.

    Night City is a hedonistic immersive world with all the dirt and hardship you can imagine. Beautiful during the day, Unforgiving during the nightfall.
    The story has a forward going line, but with so many key players calling and texting you, they take you to several different paths, but all in favour for reaching where you are heading at.
    With Night City offering you a great deal of weapons to get, clothes to wear, cars to drive and other stuff to help you on. It has much to offer before you get bored of it.

    There is a lot of functions to set your mind into. But you will gradually learn all the tech you need to work out come along as you play. It can for sure be overwhelming to swallow it all, but just stick it out as you go is my advice. Some are very useful, and some are not even necessary to bother with to even complete the game. You will find your way and tactics that suits you best.

    As you start out bare handed and begin to network with people, you meet a city with many different inhabitants with different personalities that is helping you with a hand to manage in the city. Cast is stellar with a really A-grade voice acting. Most prominent is Keanu Reeves who plays Johnny Silverhand that works as your in-brain sidekick, nuisance or whatever.

    Sadly this game holds the title of the most problematic launch in the history of gaming. It really needed at least 6 months to a year more on the production board before it could see the light of day, But CDPR really needs to learn to hold their card to their chest longer, as if The Witcher 3 did not give them proper education in releasing games prematurely, they certainly did not learn this time around either. However, If you choose to just forget all the errors that comes with it (dependable what gen.system you play on), you have a killer game to dive into.

    Lets just hope for CDPR to get their heads together and iron out what they can. I for one would play this more than one time trough because i never finished my time in the half discovered city before the credits rolled.    … Expand

The game never really gets going, its more like the senior developers threw a bunch of ideas into a first draft and put it out there. The game is enjoyable at times, but like a lot of recent games, there is far too much following behind a NPC and pressing square to advance the narrative. There are no real choices, you just follow along and go where you're told. The main story just ends suddenly, with no emotional investment or conclusion. I did like the 80s, sci-fi feel to the game.

    I launched Cyberpunk 2077 on my PS4 Slim several weeks after the release and most of the bugs were fixed, so I was able to play the game from start to finish. However, the quality of textures was painfully low, I usually had only 20-22 frames per second while driving around the city (with dips below 20), and some objects tended to disappear. The technical state and graphics of the PS4 version are awful, which is a shame, because the game itself has one of the best stories I have ever encountered, its gunplay is really good, and Night City is very impressive.

    Cyberpunk 2077 is a game brimming with potential, and it damn near reaches it on so many occasions, but the pitfalls of its development ultimately drag it down. There's still a lot to like here for RPG fans and lovers of the genre, but it's far from the generation-defining masterwork that the world was waiting for.
