    The game doesn't feel repetitive and has one of the best storytelling I've ever played. However, the bugs and glitches in this game makes it almost unplayable and will frustrate the hell out of you. I can deal with the flickering of NPC's or having them walk through walls etc., but having your best mods (i.e. special abilities) not working most of the time is ridiculous.

    Excellent story, excellent dialogues. If it weren't for so many bugs, it would have been one of the best games I've ever played. Despite the bugs, the game allowed me to play itself and I was not bored for once. You should definitely try it.

    Update: I am altering my score because after many updates and fixes this game is really good now. It’s probably a 9 or 10 but I still can’t past the fact they disingenuously tried to scam users when it released. I am rating it a 6 taking into consideration it’s current state and it’s release state.

    Sad, after several delays they still release a game the is quite honestly not playable on

    Sad, after several delays they still release a game the is quite honestly not playable on a base system and barely playable on the X. It's simply an embarrassment they accepted money full well knowing it's garbage on this system. They're should be mass refunds or they otta be ready for potential class actions. It's fraud.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After multiple patches and 18 months later, the game still randomly crashes my xbox one x (5+ times and counting).

    I agree that the game looks good, but the atmosphere is bland. Everything is like window dressing, a background of non interactive buildings and people with nothing to say. Furthermore, the game is bloated, like Ubisoft proportions bloated. You've got 28/29 main missions, 67 side missions, 17 cyberpsycho's, 70 gigs (merc missions) and at least 80 hustles (minor skirmishes). I know people want value for money, but quantity is not the same as quality. Especially the hustles are little more than fighting criminals over and over again.

    Story wise, the game doesn't go any further than: freedom is good, corporations are bad. SPOILER: Johnny Silverhand is just a gimmick, a memory on a faulty brain chip that is slowly killing you in order to take over, so Act 2 and 3 you are just looking for ways not to die. Even your best friend got killed in the first Act, like they showed in trailers before the game even released, and he was the only really likeable character. Neither Judy, nor Pan Am, nor River, Kenny or Takemura were even a bit likeable to me. You are basically just "working" for them to get either a romance option and/or some backstory. Long things short: they killed Jackie, so they could implement Keanu Reeves. I think they had to get back the money they spent on signing him and rewrote the hole "climb the merc ladder" to "destroy Adam Smasher, the guy who killed Silverhand".

    Concluding, the game is perfectly mediocre, apart from the great graphics. The soundtrack fits the game, but is an acquired taste. The gameplay is okay, the inventory management is okay, the UI is okay and the map is okay. Nothing really stands out, positive or negative. In numbers it would be:

    Story: 4
    Graphics: 8
    Game play: 5
    Sound: 6

    Considering the game is supposedly an RPG, Story and Gameplay are most important, hence the 5.

    Whats good:
    Graphics (even on XBox One)
    Dense open world
    Great characters and dialog
    Great story/cut scenes
    Character build system seems solid with lots of skill trees
    FPS is good but not great.

    Whats bad:
    Driving is terrible
    Bugs, bugs, bugs.
    No customization on cars
    Lack of climax

    I played cyberpunk on the xbox series s. I had a vague feeling. On the one hand, I liked the plot and the story itself, I have not played such large single-player games for a long time, I got pleasure from the passage of this story, but on the other hand, as soon as I moved away from the story missions, I discovered a huge number of bugs, starting from non-loading textures, ending with flying into space from impact on an invisible object. Even a year after the release, there are many technical problems. It also seemed to me that the plot is quite short and after the passage of the main plot, you can note that the world is quite boring and there is practically nothing to do in it, but there are all sorts of robbers who can desente, there are orders from fixers, but this is a drop in the ocean, this is not enough for that to get the game world real. Also worth touching on the player's choice of actions and the consequences of these actions, CDPR made a great emphasis on the non-lability and consequences of the player's choice, but all this turned out to be a big deception, which is very sad for me. In fact, there is a normal choice only at the beginning, in the mission with "Malstrom" in which the developers demonstrated various ways of passing this mission, unfortunately there are no more such missions, the choice that players give to the players does not affect anything, and even the ending .... how to say, get out in the finals on your own (those who have passed the game will understand, the roof, Johnny, you understand), which completely devalues ​​the player's choice and creates a bad impression of the game.
    In the end, I can say that the best thing in the game is the plot, everything else is done somehow, why did they lie to the players talking about non-existent mechanics, why did they stir up interest in a frankly unprepared game? I'm disappointed, if you still want to go through cyberpunk, then wait at least another six months, or better a year, maybe then they will already fix this piece of code.

    It's a great game but the bugs really take their toll..Other amazing innovative games like Fall out and KKD had bugs but not this bad..The worst thing is they get worse the longer you play, so when the story is really picking up their is jenk pulling you out of the experience..The console version is miles from acceptable , still..But there really is a potential masterpeice under it all.

    I played it on Xbox One X and graphics where nice, I didnt have much crashes. I had a lot of bugs but none was game breaking.
    But the game was not as fun, mechanics were not deep, skills were not notorious. The game was mediocre before its launch, it was mediocre since the idea. That is a shame.

    This game is beyond buggy and lacks performance.. (even on XSX or PS5..)

    The story has pacing issues. Keanu Reeves is mediocre, yet a bad-ass. Judy Alvarez is a nice character, can we get a little more from her character? Same for Panam.

    I bought the game for 33$. Buy it when it's at least 20$. That's when I say you got your money's worth.

    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.

Couple of other things that bothered me were driving... only used a motorcycle, sneaking/stealth, hacking, i still don't get how that worked but i was still pretty good at it. The leveling system didn't really contribute to making the experience any better and street cred leveled way to quickly, and crafting, wow what a disappointment... this game was less RPG more grand theft auto with some RPG elements added. I feel after 8 years of development we should have gotten master piece like the Witcher 3 but ended up with something that tried hard but was unfulfilling to play. I feel bad for the devs because of the hate they are getting right now but CDPR leadership should have delayed until April 2021, but even then I'm not sure i would score any differently Expand

Ai could be improved a bit , more activities could be added to the city .. cops seem dumb , ai is just random filler to make the city feel alive but in the end only makes you feel more alone .. stores and other things are practically useless when you can create nearly everything you need or find them ... overall the gameplay I enjoy it the weapons are cool the amount of skills that you can put on your character is cool but the game is lacking in content like bad .. after the story you are left with nothing to do besides kill random enemies in the street .. you can not preview clothing which acts like armor before you buy it , again ai is pretty dumb in this game often stoping in middle of the road for no reason thinking that you are parked in front of them . You leave your car in the middle of the road the ai will not drive around it but stay in the same spot ..

    Again the game is fun , the story is great the voice acting is amazing but the game needs more ! I would give this game a 7 because of the story and the story choices, and freedom of choice in some story options .. don’t go in here expecting a grand rpg game , or a ground breaking fps it’s none of those .

    This is no elder scrolls, this is no fallout .. this is no final fantasy . Nor is it halo or a doom ... it tries to be a rpg but fails at it

    Story I would give it a 8/9 , gameplay like guns shooting fighting I would say may be 7-8 .. graphics on the Xbox series x 4 may be until they give the next gen update .. everything else a 2 may be a 3

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. well, lvl 44 now so played a fair bit. It is engaging, the main storyline is pretty cool. The interplay with Johnny is cool. Night City is pretty extensive and you can spend a lot of time cruising around. There are some obviously flaws - random crashes, don't go into the settings menu (you can't get out!), I'm not sure if it's cos i'm late in the game but i can't find any crafting recipes any more to craft top tier gear. I do have legendary's etc but they are getting old.
    Once you get a decent suite of quickhacks - combat is pretty easy - you can snipe bads from a long distance and they never touch you. Took me a while to find out that melee weapons were pretty good though (pretty powerful too). Levelling up is a slow process so each level is pretty powerful - the skill trees are well designed and make you think hard about where to spend your points.
    I've done a couple endings now and there isn't really anything else left to do in the game - other than random side street encounters which aren't very interesting. I do like how some of the side quest chains continue at random times (not sure what the trigger is here) which keeps some side threads going nicely though i think I've run out of those too.
    Over all its an ambitious outing and i hope they can tidy it up and add some more longevity to it.
    Well worth a look if you like the genre.

    Even if the game were to hypothetically “fix” itself with patches, the storyline and character build is not enticing enough to revisit a second time. Though I wish CDPR all the success. I don’t want to hop on a cancel culture train, but this game is simply not all it was made to be.

    It’s because of this fun gameplay and this great story that it’s such a shame Cyberpunk 2077 performs like it’s still in alpha.

    Overall, I think there’s a lot to like when it comes to Cyberpunk 2077, which has been unfortunately marred by poor performance issues on a number of platforms, and some poor communication (along with some overpromising) on the part of the publisher. It’s clear that a lot of work went into putting this game together, and it’s unfortunate that it had to release in a state that feels a little unfinished. It’s still a game you can very much derive enjoyment from, even in its current state but your ability to overlook open-world bugs and performance issues is certainly going to factor in quite a bit.

    Cyberpunk 2077 didn't meet my expectations, but also didn't disappoint me. It delivered an RPG experience like no other, delving deep into themes like control, awareness and addiction. The combat is great and the graphics are amazing, but the bugs and some under-cooked systems make it seem like the devs got lazy, and that's always a bad sign. (Played on Xbox Series X)
