Although I don't agree with Gameranx's comment on Netrunning. Netrunners was the most busted build in the game. You can get near the busted-ness now, but nothing like like it was. Use too you could if lined up everything you could one shot elites, and 2 or 3 full combo a boss. I think saw actual one shot on bosses, but i'd have to do some digging. It was melee builds that were almost not viable.

The game looks amazing with a 4090 on top of a storyline that tugs on your heart strings. Only sad part is that there wont be any more dlc and the next cyberpunk game is prob 3-5 years away. The game still has a couple of bugs and crashes but overall acceptable due to how big the world is.

Now with the addition of Phantom Liberty, I played the game again from the very beginning and had even more fun.

Coming back to it after the expansion released for a second playthrough made it go from a good game to one of my favorite games of all time. Especially the Phantom Liberty ending. There are very few games that can really make me feel emotional about an ending and this was one of them. This game has perhaps the best narrative of any piece of media I've ever experienced. Not even just games. God is this game so GOOD.

But that is the state of any company that produces games nowadays because of INVESTORS, and because they hold stake in the companies and the game they actually do have a say what happens to some extent, pressuring the release of the game. Games this large need money, and investors allow for things of this scale to be done, but at the cost of almost being their puppets. Im sure the developers themselves really did not want to release the game like they did, but they do not have a say. So we are still allowed to praise the DEVELOPERS, because no matter what not many companies could have done what they have done.The people behind all of these AAA games wether they are good or bad, call of duty to battlefield, whatever game.

My experience with Cyberpunk at the initial launch was a lot different. Besides some AI bugs and getting soft locked one time that I eventually got through I thoroughly enjoyed the story and the world. Was the enemy AI pretty easy to beat, yes. There was also some great mods early on, that fixed some graphical issues and the terrible feel of driving the vehicles. My initial experience was a 7/10. And I enjoyed my time in the game. But overall I'm glad CD projekt Red stuck with it and fixed it.

It was because the game had no failsafes, because it was only tested in decently-specced PCs. Any calculation errors could be bruteforced with enough processing power. You can see that most bugs and calculations are due to physics miscalculation errors. If the game had more time for quality assurance, they would've had toned down the physics calculation a little (why they toned down the NPCs in older consoles).

Honestly, I enjoyed the game at launch with very few DISASTEROUS bugs which people flip out over. I bought a PS5 just weeks before and it ran completely fine for around 5 hours then crashed, obviously a memory issue which was fixed within the first month. I completed all 5 endings of the game by end of January '21 putting nearly 300 hours into an "unplayable" game, which to this day is my favorite game I've played. I install it on my 'old PS4' after reading so much trash talk about the game and understood it was much more buggy on limited hardware, the same can be said for PC's older than 2020, the game has been and still is VERY demanding with industry defining graphics progress. Thank God they're abandoning REDengine for UE5 for their new games. I'm not defending the launch state on last gen hardware, but the game STORY overall was very good and giving my experience. I was entitled to a refund for my purchase but chose not to because I liked the game and wanted to support them. I bought an additional copy when people were hating on it getting the PC collector's edition at half price . My laptop CANNOT play the game well at all as it's below even the original launch minimum specs, but I still do run the game often for mods and photo mode. One final note, the only thing despicable was the 9 month crunch time the devs were put under to push the game to launch obviously 3 years early. @@istealpopularnamesforlikes3340

At it's core, Cyberpunk 2077 had a lot of great things going for it. The narrative was very strong and the combat was a lot of fun so there was always a good game there. If it didn't release on last gen consoles it probably wouldn't have received all the flak it got. This game really turned around when Edgerunners was released on Netflix and they implemented some much needed fixes and cool content from the tv series.

When I first played Cyberpunk, I played on a 2013 Xbox One, and I did not have a horrible experience... Yes there were bugs, glitches and some broken things but I still had a great experience overall. By the time Phantom Liberty came out, I got a Series X and decided to load up and replay the game, and WOW! I then fully understood what all the fuss was about around 60fps, it was like a whole new game! At the end of Phantom Liberty I had the same bitter-sweet feeling I get after watching a really good sci-fi action/drama, this was the second time Cyberpunk channeled the spirit of the original Blade Runner film for me.

I bought the game just before Phantom Liberty came out because it was on sale so I decided to give it a chance and my god this game is so good. I knew that on launch back in 2020 the game was in a nearly unplayable state, but I didn’t know so many of the features I'm seeing and experiencing in my playthrough were added after the fact. I can’t imagine how it is for people who played the game at release and then seeing it now, it must feel like a completely new and different game entirely. I never followed the hype for this game over the years leading up to it's release, I didn’t really know it existed until that E3 where Keanu Reeves did the "You're breathtaking" segment. I had no expectations for the game like so many others did, so when it came out and I saw how glitchy and poorly optimized it was I just had some laughs at its expense and moved on. It wasn’t until 3 years later that I decided to give it a chance after CDPR turned it around and I'm so glad I did. I just wish the game originally released like this so they didn't have to make a huge comeback in the first place.

I only just bought Cyberpunk 2077 this year (2023) and it is one of my top 5 favourite games currently. Then with patch 2.1 and I recently upgraded to an RTX 4060 ti GPU, the graphics are WOW. But it's the story and characters that make it the experience that it is. Also, it gets top marks from me for having no happy endings, no matter what choices you make. One thing I don't get with people is the obession over character outfits. Really, the only time you can look at your character are in the wardrobe, in the mirror or when you are sitting on a motorcycle. So the outfits really aren't important, especially as the NPC's don't react to your outfit. It would be more interesting if you were dressed in a corpo outfit, walked into a Santo Domingo bar and someone tells you that you aren't welcome there. But still, one of my top 5 games!

I've gaming since the earliest home PCs became available with more than 4 colors. I have learned to wait until patches are out before dumping money into publishers' pockets. I also go to the modders' site to see what they're patching or adding to the game. Eventually, the approval stats started to lift, and I bought the game. I'm on my third playthrough with its Phantom Liberty DLC, and I'm really enjoying it. I learned from the first playthroughs not to jump into the first major mission until the map starts to thin out on activities to complete. Once Johnny is in your head, many of the early side missions are difficult to focus on and complete. Plus, doing it this way helps really beef up your character and bank account. I'll be looking forward to the next release for this franchise.

Stop normalising this behavior. The game should be good once it is released to the consumers who paid for it. This nonsense that gaming companies now do, where they release half finished games and slowly patch them up needs to stop.

@@TheGOAT-hj6slI don’t see any of us forgetting or excusing the state it was in at launch. The company had to pay a massive settlement on top of refunding everyone who asked. Nothing is normalized, they quite literally paid their dues and know better than to repeat their mistakes in the future. As such, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with acknowledging that the game in its current state is fantastic.

Got this game day 1, played it for maybe 20 minutes and couldn't get into it. One day I randomly bought Phantom Liberty and came back to it about 2 months ago, and I must say, it has been one of the most memorable and beautiful gaming experiences I have ever had. The world is unlike anything i've ever seen or experienced. Easily one of the best games I've ever played, next to RDR2

This is exactly what I did. I bought it day 1. I was at the 2018 E3 when they had that crazy Cyberpunk event so I was extremely excited for the game. I played it for about 20 minutes as well, couldn’t get into it, I never played it again as pretty much the next day is when all the news came out about how bad it was. Reading this post has inspired me to give it another shot.

@@JaguarXJ please do yourself the favor and play it!Give it a chance, the story is amazing. It'll take some time getting used to the world, and it may feel overwhelming at times, but give it a chance and i'm sure you'll love it.

Played close to the beginning but didn't get far, with all the content and updates, I'm happy I came back. One of the best games and stories I've ever played. Loving everything in the world so far. And Panam ❤️ 🥵

Hot take: I still think that they are just another company with bad practices and the praise that they are receiving from the community is not deserved. All the patches that we have received in the last 3 years should have been in the game as it was releasing back in 2020. No wonder that the gaming world is screwed with everyone cheering them for farting out updates 3 years later and finally having a decent (still not complete) product.
