I agree with what you're saying about the dialogue, bored the arse off me. Constantly hitting that skip button. Overall I liked the graphics and trying different builds but that's it. Keep up the good work mate, love watching your brutally honest videos 👍👍👍👍
@@clemp23 fuck both of you I had to deal with the bullshit on PS4 still fell in love with it, and even now now after upgrading it, I have more fun in that version with all the memories I’ve made jank and all
im on PC barely saw any bugs, just booted it up and played for 1week since i wanted to see how many bugs i could find (2-3hrs a day roaming and story mode) overall i found it much better tbh but it gets boring if you havent played for more than a couple weeks, its something that grows on you like witcher 3, its honestly quite boring but if you play it for a while it gets better, the small nuances are great since i love reading those small shards i get traveling the city, but for the average gamer its ok, for me its great.
I got 450 hours on PS5, and 1200+ on PC.. the game is great, but when you add mods!? L E G E N D A R Y, choom! There’s so many ways to approach the game, with insane amount of side missions, unexpected moments that are phenomenal, and the mystery behind it all.. there’s still secrets ppl haven’t found yet, along with hidden missions, and Easter eggs.. so much in this game, it’s absolutely mind boggling to see anyone say it’s terrible, unless they’re farming for engagement/views.
@@MidTierVillain I can imagine. I got it on ps5 but I'm planning on building a PC (wanted one since 5th grade to mod skyrim lol). I can't wait to try out the vr cyberpunk mod and all the other ones. I really wish CDPR would drop the modding kit for cyberpunk like they just did for the Witcher 3 and like BGS does for all their games and then the mods can be even crazier!
Just started my first playthrough post 2.0 today. NPCs glitching through the floor, enemies spotting me through walls, NPCs not talking during dialogue scenes. And this is in my first three hours. It's still got so many issues it's crazy. And that's before we get to the terrible story
It has potential as a masterpiece but no way it reached those heights. The gameplay is mediocre - the shooting is lackluster, same with melee and the hacking elements are too simplistic... The world is gorgeous and very immersive for the most part. The story is good and the side quests are unique.. but it's not a masterpiece..
@@StacheBoi Ah yes, RDR2 which has the gameplay loop of shooting bad guy in head with small gun, or shooting the same bad guy with big gun - for 200 hours. Very depth such wow.
ive recently got this game on my pc and i have not experienced any glitches or bugs which you have shown in this video, i think its just an issue on the console version of the game because my experience so far has been incredible
On consoles it's another story, I can't get it out of my head that this game should never have come out on consoles. I have an XBOX One X Series X and the game crashes a lot.
The game is fine on console. I played it on ps5 and its solid, not perfect mind you (I did get some crashes here and there but they're very few and far between).
@@omarcruz1047 PS5. Legit never crashed once. Granted I got the game on 2.1 update but still never got any bugs, crashes, soft locks or none of that so it’s really strange how a series x (a console I’d say is a little bit better than ps5) still managed to have bugs like that with this game
Or... And get this, people try the game to see if they can get to the point where they find it's amazing like everyone is saying. Don't ever find that part and then bring it up as valid criticism for a game people are saying is fantastic. It's shallow in basically every regard and the games it apes, GTA, Ubisoft (for the side content) and Deus Ex Human Revolution for how the stealth, melee, shooting and dialogue plays basically the core gameplay sucks compares to all those games. Hell FarCry has tighter gunplay.
@deetsitmeisterjd it's also shallow in it's references to other cyberpunk stories, more cosplaying as cyberpunk. For example, the pills you're given to help with your illness are an obvious Matrix reference. But where The Matrix made the red pill a metaphor for choosing to live authentically and be yourself, the red pill in the game literally kills you, giving control of your body over to silverhand and shortening the amount of time you have left.
*_LETS BE REAL, the visuals are so good, and the amount of details, but the NPCs animations, facial expressions and AI in general sucks_* There are older games with a decent character model, npcs and pretty decent AI, what is happening to new games??
@@flymasterkyle1277 that makes no sense. Optimisation is significantly easier for console ports than it is for PC port, almost every game that’s on both PC and console has less bugs on console 99% of the time. But this video is still very stupid nontheless
I just played Cyberpunk for the first time this year and it was one of the most memorable gaming experiences of my life. I saw a couple of minor graphical bugs, but nothing that fundamentally impacted the gameplay. We obviously had drastically different experiences, and that's fine. Personally, I loved every moment of Cyberpunk. Night City sucked me in like few gaming environments ever have.
but what about the AI, npcs models and facial expressions in game? 😁😁🤣🤣 the game is a joke, the only gorgeous thing it has are the visuals, and illumination.
As a huge fan of this game I very much agree with most of these points, while I personally enjoyed the story and it's DLC because I have always enjoyed science fiction, I do think that this game is still unpolished in a lot of areas. The good news though is that there are no more devs working on this game and CDPR is moving onto the sequel, which hopefully has a much better launch now that they've switched engines and have something to actually work off of.
@@commenceun upcoming isn’t the word I would use, we probably wont see anything about Cyberpunk for at least 2-5 years, as of writing this in 2024 at least
Your opinion might or might not be popular. But I am a die hard GTA fan, having started with GTA 1. I am also a die hard RDR1 & 2 fan. The most fun I have had playing a single player game EVER, was with Cyberpunk. Yes it is imperfect. RDR2 comes much closer to being perfect imo, true. But the unique world building, art, music, missions, setting, characters, are just addicting. Even more so than with GTA, at least for me. Everyone else can hate the game, I do not care. I LOVE IT and have finished the entire game 10 times and put in 1100 hours so far. I hope more content gets released, and I am certainly looking forward to Cyberpunk Orion.
Man I feel you, the theme is great but I would love to play CP 2077 with RDR 2 attention to details, NPCs and relatable story. When I play now CP 77 something is disturbing my experience so much that I don’t want to play anymore
Dude its obvious you've never played a sci fi game with this aesthetic EVER. That is why you subjectively like it so much its like the first time you've tasted ice cream when all you've done your whole life is drink milk. Its obvious most people are like you where its a fresh impression but the game objectively is subpar to mid as far as story telling, dialog, mechanical depth let alone the fact its all illusion of choice. Slop
I am looking at your gameplay and you seem to never play any of the side quests and rushed straight to Hanako which is like the least interesting story bit. If you played all the side stories and even the bigger side quests like getting Evelin back or finding the serial killer questline you might not have said that the story is uninteresting. In fact I don't think you gave any examples of how you found the story uninteresting or boring. Which sections were you bored at? What dialogue did you skip or find tedious? For the gameplay comparison to Red Dead. I actually think the open world in Cyberpunk is better paced and more fun to explore than in RD. I quit playing the game and its story missions in RD because I hated how on rails it was and how much Rockstar relied on watching cutscenes for everything and even making me "play out" boring tasks that should not have to be animated like that. They actively took away fun and so my immersion was ruined and I could not take the story seriously. Cyberpunk put me in the first person of V and made me experience the consequences and left me making decisions decisions that had me sitting in my chair speechless. Gameplay is far cry but more options and playing over 200 hours of Cyberpunk you come too realize how fluid and versatile your movements are. Come my third playthrough I could clear camps that took me 10 attempts my first time by being able to jump over enemies, shooting them in the head, pushing them down floors, throwing knives while I stab someone in the back and blow up their reinforcements with quickhacks. To conclude. It is worth playing and worth playing for me three times over. It is a 10 out of 10 for me and I find the story from both the DLC and main game to be phenomenal if you put the freaking time to do all the side missions with the characters you form relationships with. The meat of the game is the city it self but the filling is and what makes it that much more special is how it challenges the player. At the end of the day its a matter of opinion of course but I think you are seriously wrong in thinking that the game is not a masterpiece, I think it is and will be remembered as such for years and years.
The thing that bothers me is most of the time someone criticises the game, every comments just stop at "I don't have a bugs or glitches, I run the game at 60/120fps 4k and the game is a masterpiece. And this is showing how low expecations are today. (I don't care about the support console or PC, this is not my main point). The game a meh and at best good, but excels nowhere: - Like most Ubisoft game, it's a interesting open world and good graphics. Since it's a CDPR game, the story is somehow good or maybe very good but the "Punk" is Cyberpunk is so soft. It supposes to be " a low-life and high tech universe with features futuristic technological and scientific achievements, such as artificial intelligence and cyberware, juxtaposed with societal collapse, *dystopia or decay*." The last part is very soft in this game. When you read william gibson's cyberpunk books (who is the Daddy of Cyberpunk theme), the social, politics and economics theme are much more impactful and interesting than in this game (every game is politic because they explain a state of a city/world between people which is super important in Cyberpunk universe). - But when the game was announced, it was promised to be a GTA-like + The Witcher/Skyrim-RPG with real important choices in story. At the end, it's just a Far Cry/Assassin's Creed game with a cyberpunk skin and RPG-lite (yes liberty patch reworks the spec tree and implants but this is just the minimum) with a good story and no real important choices, which for most of players is already a good experience when you see others AAA games and I respect that (especially for casuals) but not for more invested players. If you had mods, yes the game starts to be a real good game in some aspects but it stills lack solids foundations.
I've been gaming since I was 6, starting on a Sega Genesis. In 30 years of gaming I haven't played such a compelling, deep-thought-inducing game. The combat after 2.0 is amazing IMHO. I play on very difficult with almost no HUD, and if I die, I have to roll a dice for my character to survive, so it increases the stakes. Every encounter I have to use all my abilities to survive. Night City is beautifully crafted. Sure, it isn't as interactive or as dynamic as RDR2, which I think takes the cake for best open world. But the cars, which were so carefully crafted, even the interiors, are so much fun to drive. But I prefer the setting and the lore of cyberpunk. I love how natural the dialogue scenes play out, where you can walk around. The graphics are amazing. My only issues are that they haven't yet fixed all the bugs, actually there are now new bugs post -2.0. Also, they should keep releasing DLC like Phantom Liberty. They've had tremendous financial success with edgerunnners, 2.0, and phantom liberty, and night City has so much potential for more stories
if youve been gaming that long and you consider cyberpunk amazing then your standards are astonishingly low. the graphics are the only part of the game that even remotely lived up to its marketing.
@@jagostrife361 I didn't pay attention to the marketing. My tastes are simply different than yours, there's tons of people like me. I also don't like Elden Ring at all, which to many gamers makes my opinion in invalid. I liked the Witcher 3 a lot but I prefer the world of cyberpunk. I like sci-fi movies, I like action RPGs, and I like the combat mechanics and world building in cyberpunk. It immerses me. It's like it was built for me, it has almost everything I look for in a game. Graphics are important but certainly not the most important factor when choosing games. I just found Night City's scale, seamlessness, and perceived realism unbelievable compared to other games worlds. I'm also playing the Dead Space remake and the RE2 remake right now, which are both amazing. I would say RDR2 is superior but unfortunately they never patched it to 60 fps on PS5 and so it looks like garbage, being that Im used to seeing everything at 60 fps at least 1440p with HDR. I absolutely loved it, it's an absolute masterpiece, but I just couldn't stop hating the frame rate, so I'm waiting for Rockstar to charge me for a "remaster'. Then, maybe RDR2 would be better than CP2077. What would be some games on PS5, preferably action RPGs, that blow CP2077 out of the water? I have FF7 remake but haven't played. Since your tastes are so much more refined than mine 🙄 typical redditor
@@tch2296 lol im not on reddit but i will concede that its most likely this game simply isnt for me. I like the things you listed as well, sci fi, rpg's, etc. However i didnt like cyberpunk in the least. there are too many design choices that baffle me and I unfortunately did follow the marketing and I dont feel it lived up to any of it. The city seems shallow to me. the npc generation is terribly repetitive. the lack of any flying vehicles even though they do exist in game. the stores being empty and simply menus. the amount of customization that is completely pointless. the amount of things you simply cant customize (vehicles, apartments) tons of development time seemingly for nothing, at least in my opinion. the physics are ridiculous especially the water. For a game that was promising a "next gen" experience I dont feel like it delivered that. The police ai is terrible but after going back and playing gta's and RDR2 its not any better so I wont shit on that too much. Overall for me cyberpunk only looks good. Maybe the story didnt resonate with me, I dont know. I do think RDR2 is a better game but if you were to break down every aspect individually there is definitely things cyberpunk does better, such as combat. Ive been gaming a long time as well. perhaps im just bitter and jaded with the current state of gaming. You do you. my criticism is definitely invalid I enjoy fallout 76 alot, and its a broken mess of a game. I cant think of anything that blows it out of the water. I guess I just have to ask, obviously you like the game but what flaws would you say it has? I guess what I dont understand when people who love a piece of media cant admit its flaws. I love FF7 and the new games have some decent qualities but I would never call them a masterpiece. What do you feel cyberpunk brought to the action RPG genre that hadnt been done better by other games?
@@jagostrife361 Yeah, you're not alone. It's weird: some people find the world pretty but shallow, like it feels strangely empty. For me that improves a lot after 2.0 and phantom liberty - Dogtown feels much more alive. For me, I enjoy the layout and feel of the city, and the cars, that I love just cruising around and checking everything out. And after 2.0 the spare parts you find are super important so there is real reward for exploring everywhere. So I think that's just a matter of how it hits you personally, but I've heard many say the same thing.. Same with the story, to me, I thought the dialogue was incredible and the ideas were super interesting to me. AI, corporate overreach, it's like living in a version of our world if we keep making the same mistakes, which to me makes it kind of profound and interesting. I love how you can move around during conversations and how good the faces look. I found the pilot to be mature, engaging, and although I'm aware you're not actually making huge choices most of the time, it at least feels to me very cinematic and cool. But again, I've heard many complain that it's not not heavy enough on the RPG. It's definitely an action RPG with emphasis on action. I love the lore, I bought several of Pondsmiths books, th cyberpunk universe has been around since the 1980s and there is a huge amount of lore starting when it's universe splits from ours. It's just personally appealing to me. NPC repetition is a problem and has to do with hardware limitations. If you're on PC there are options I think that help with that. It's not as bad as it was on PS5, but occasionally I'll see the same mohawked girl walk by twice in two seconds. There are other bugs, some pretty big ones, like all the radio hosts disappearing after phantom liberty, and the TV audio being bugged. I've emailed CDPR many times to report and inquire why they won't fix the remaining bugs but I think they've moved on. The bugs are still a problem, it's just now at the point where personally I can look past it. But it's a huge contrast when I play a game like the dead space remake which is absolutely perfectly polished in every way. And for some ppl the bugs are enough to pull them out of the game. I still haven't played Baldurs Gate 3, which I'm sure I will love. I also never played fallout 4 - was waiting for next gen patch, or fallout 76. I own fallout 4 and loved fallout 3 and new Vegas, two of my favorite games. I was thinking of diving into fallout soon - 4 and then 76. It's just taste. Like I can't explain why souls games have just never had any appeal to me. The world isn't appealing, the combat looks decent but I'm not all about boss-centered gameplay, I'm not huge into fantasy, etc Honestly it's tough when you've been gaming so long and seen it all. You'll find fault in every game. And Cyberpunk isn't perfect, it just hits the spot for me. If Rockstar wasn't so fucking lazy/greedy all they have to do is unlock the frame rate limiter on PS5, someone already figured out how to do it on XBox and the PC version runs uncapped. If I could play RDR2 at 60 fps I'd drop everything else and go straight for that. Edit: and yeah I dunno why I said reddit lol
@@tch2296 haha i came out a little aggressive assuming I knew why you liked the game, the reddit comment is fair play. I cant say that I'll be getting into cyberpunk2077 but this convo has made me realize i need to reevaluate my passion for gaming and get back to enjoying them more than critiquing them. I appreciate the measured responses and I apologize for being a bit of a dick. I truly hope you continue to enjoy the games you play and best of luck with your back log!
@@L321 it's not a glitch his character model is like that because he's a drug addiction and he injected himself in the shoulder, theirs NPC tweaking out on drugs all over the map or being excorted home by a friend.
Started the game 2 weeks ago and the only thing I can relate with is that npc’s does happen to repeat a few times. I’m playing in 1080p with no raytracing and I’ve experienced a signle glitch where my car spawned from 10m heigh. Npc do not try to get money from insurace while driving and for story line i think it’s a matter of taste. I feel really immerse in the story line, in the caracter and in the whole environment. If you experience this kind of glitches try adjusting preferences. See ya 🤙🏻
well, I don't know what hardware you have, but you should buy a new graphic card, or do some maintenance and cleaning to the one you already have, because in my case I have not experienced as many bugs as you have.
@@L321 xDDD you just need to read some comments of this video to realize what is actually happening here, Reality: there aren't even a quarter of the bugs you say there are.
Just finished it today, 74.5 hours. I did most of the main additional sidemissions before finishing the main story. Of those 74.5 hours. I did 44.8 in the last 2 weeks. To anyone asking "is it ready for 2024" Yes. Yes it's ready for 2024
Nah, it will never be ready because the devs are still liars and scammed millions by promising many things to be in this game, including decisions that matter on every turn and we still don't have that, nor are we going to.
There are flaws no doubt. None of them are bad enough to really affect core gameplay in my experience however. I’ve played this game for 1,300 hours and from what I’ve seen, it’s mostly just vehicle pop in when I’m on the freeway looking further ahead since I’m driving at a faster speed or my vehicle freaking out when I use the call menu occasionally. Sometimes I experience like a weird DLSS slowdown after opening the pause menu, but that’s probably because I only have 8 GB of VRAM and the 2.0 update kind of beefed up system requirements.
This game is boring. Literally, the most over hyped nonsense I've ever played. I'm personally never playing cpr game again. I spent the last 3 years trying get invested in this game but I've readmitted it's just boring. I'll definitely try to beat the witcher 3. I'm only going to reinstall this game when I get 4090 run a Benchmark or something.
started it again today after finishing the release version years ago.. first couple fights i get into, enemies are randomly invincible to damage, sidewalks are unreachable for a car moving forward, yet backwards you can get onto them to park just fine, allied AI is blocking me, standing around like a sack of potatoes, random events during dialog heavy scenes speed up/slow down my movements speed randomly, the cover system is confusing at best, hotkeys seem to change around at will (draw weapon is alt, then its b, wtf?), i haven't even finished the intro mission yet and i feel like this is worse then it used to be. i love the athmosphere, the vibes, the qol features and additional content. it just let's me down on the basics already so early on. i will probably finish this second playthough, but i sure am not off to a good start.
@@LamarBentley smoothly tbh. i checked the difficulty down from very hard, cause it felt a bit too demanding to min/max which i didn't quite sign up for after all these years, apart from that i'm sailing. gonna go for the panam ending (female V, judy romance) *my favorite.
@@fo0liner1985 please try mods if you can :) can greatly improve game balance (play very hard with just enemy hp values of hard or normal? sure!) qol in many aspects and add more content and detail! keybinds are fully customizable via config file editing btw^^ the whole game isnt easy to get into - but very rewarding if you stick and fuck around for longer.
@@MikeGrau0hrthere certainly are worse games/engines i got used to or tailored to my liking via .ini/.cfg manipulation and just careful and methodical play. IE getting used to wierd physical behavior or little quirks of an engine that could result in silly behavior. there certainly is no major flaw left here and im quite enjoying my time with the game right now tbh. even without mods. tho i will take them into consideration more so, now that you mentioned them.
Very hard is necessary for the game to be challenging at all and I've experienced none of what your talking about in my 400 hours, are you sure you updated the game.
Some of the fixes and updates won’t apply to old saves from what I remember so give it another try in a new save ( I might be wrong but It’s just what I remember)
The game is a masterpiece in many ways. It definitely has some glitches, some of which you show here way too many times. Cars falling from the sky, npcs freaking out in traffic and causing deadly accidents because you pass then when you did something blocks away before getting into a car, npcs spawning in the same spot simultaneously; sure some bad stuff. NPCs pulling out invisible cigarettes. There are lots of unusual things that will happen with NPCs and overlapping game artifacts over the course of play, that are not intended, but to me it doesn't happen enough to kill immersion. The issue with the repeated appearances on random NPCs is an option slider in the graphics settings. If you are getting too many you have the settings turned down for higher performance. Same with the cars I think. Random pissing guys, I think they toned that down, and I have not noticed a random standing pissing girl in a while. They clearly took out the one pissing in the market way up in NW Watson lol where people would all be dancing around him. I have no idea how they thought it would be possible to drive a car in first person mode, just no. The story being 'boring' is like, just your opinion man. Anyone finding it boring is still the exception rather than the rule. I had not seen a complaint about it until you mentioned it. I don't know, I love the game despite it's issues. Still need to play RDR2 to see that one.
i keep reading that about cyberpunk driving - its fixed by modders since 2.0 :) check out ""if driving in modded cyberpunk 2077 was realistic:" if you want and tell me what you think.
I came across some bugs on my first two playthroughs. I ocasionally got stuck in some of the apartments because the elevator button wouldn’t trigger, forcing me to save/reload; I saw a car get swallowed by the road, lol, and the car spawned on top of the head of detective han (last mission from the River Ward + Peralez storyline), but that was it. I have to mention that all this was before 2.0. I played Phantom Liberty for 100 hours from scratch, and I can’t remember any bugs. Maybe I encountered a few, but nothing significant enough for me to recall.
I have 700hrs on Cyberpunk, I really like the world of cyberpunk and it's social commentary on how big corporations own us. I would strongly recommend anyone to do all the side quests with yellow markers because that's where the best missions are with important characters that can unlock new endings, or you can skip it all and beat the game in 20hrs with the vanilla ending up to you. Also suggest playing on the hardest difficulty for best experience. For me the gameplay has been good since launch (I played on PC). There's lots of cool guns. The double jump + dash mechanics, mixed with the wall climbing make jumping across rooftops one of my favorite ways to traverse the map. The body modifications in general are cool and add more variety like gorilla arms vs mantis blades, or being a netrunner vs being a ninja build. The are minor bugs with ai but a lot of the stuff pointed out in the video I never noticed, maybe because I do the missions and am not roaming around killing npc's. I will say driving cars does suck, most the time I drive a motorcycle because it feels better. The graphics are cutting edge. Full RTX implementation means best lighting and reflections I've ever seen. Only improvement I would want is the characters and npc's could look more realistic and have more variety in hairstyles and clothing. Overall 9/10 - Great game overall, great replay value with different life paths, playstyles, endings and lots of mods to mix things up even further. The graphics are stunning. If you try your hardest you can find bugs but the story and gameplay are peak gaming.
In comparison to RDR2, I much prefer cyberpunk's gameplay. I personally do not enjoy riding a horse around and find the combat simple. Can not judge RDR2's story as I dropped in 20hrs in.
The problem with cyberpunk is that it tries to do RPG and visceral FPS and doesn’t pull either one off. The enemies are bullet sponges and everything is dictated by RPG damage numbers but the RPG elements are shallow and your character is only ever defined by arbitrary dialogue options. Trying to do RPG and action adventure shooter is a big task. As an open world, it’s less ambitious than GTA, the gold standard; and as an RPG, it’s less immersive than 15-year-old Fallout games.
Enemies are not even that spongey unless if they are mechs or boss fights which make sense. The combat feels very good in this game and it’s unique with the cyberware. Side quests even tie into each other pretty frequently. I did a side quest where I had to give a car to a gang that had some big wig corpo in the trunk. You have the option to free him before you drop him off or if you encountered one of his coworkers in another side quest before this one, you’ll find out he was using nomads as human experiments. It’s the subtle things like this that make the game feel immersive and that your choices do have an impact. Disproves your point that the only choices you can make to shape your role is only through dialogue. Seems to me like you haven’t played the game enough to figure out these things. Don’t get me wrong though, there definitely is some jank in this game with vehicles popping in, weird “dead slides” when you try to slide, romance options that leave you wanting more and duplicate NPC’s. I think the gameplay as well as a story that is this good, and characters that are written so well kind of makes up for its problems. There are mods that fix some of these things and add more for sure, but at least there is a game there. Same can’t be said about Bethesda, the company that somehow made half baked games as a framework for modders mainstream.
@@commenceun it’s not even that. Game just released in such a piss poor state that it didn’t get a chance to get all the content like it was supposed to. Game is still solid for the most part. Just wish there was more
People calling it a masterpiece and the best game they’ve ever played baffles me. It’s slightly above average at best. Did we even play the same game? 😂
We are not the same people. For many especially women Sims are still a masterpiece. Some people are not bothered by buggy mechanics. Look at Skyrim community. You just have to look from a wider perspective than your own eyes. I personally had a lot of fun with this game, especially the story. It is mature and touches deep topics such as hidden control of society.
@@L321You should delete your channel for sure, your opinion is instantly invalid and useless. Like it is simply impossible not to call Cyberpunk a masterpiece. On the other hand we have Starfield, I mean trashfield that shows us how beautiful cyberpunk is
I mean the same can be said for red dead 2. A lot of people find rdr2 boring. But that doesnt mean much does it? Cyberpunk is a masterpiece for a lot of people. That is all that matters.
The problem I have is I constantly compare it to the chaotic loot filled and object heavy world of Fallout 4 where every area had tons of interactivity and tactical options to take care of enemies. Cyberepunk feels very "rigid", the buildings are maze like and boxed in, and the enemy encounters are very similar. Again I'm comparing it to a lot of the chaotic freedom of Fallout 4 with crafting, base building, and just overall madness post apocalypse, if they could bring that feel to the dystopian city it would be incredible. I had much more memorable fights and interactions in the winding alleys of Fallout 4 than in Cyberpunk
This would be such an amazing game... if it was a third-person game. First person ruins the game tbh. There is a reason open-world RPGs are typically 3rd person... It's not a coincidence. It's to highlight the game's greatest asset, its world... Two major benefits of this (a) Zoom out a little bit, third person, and you actually see more of this world, teeming with detail, at any moment. (b) Get to see all the outfits and details and cyberpunk modifications that your character has in this fictional world... Instead, we don't see the character. Don't see anything but the hands, don't see his fighting, don't even get to see all the weapons in entirety, and this fictional setting they've created goes to waste. And you have the constricted 1st-person view, which has never caught on in any genre except shooters -- which it works for, because the main focus of a game like COD is the combat, not experiencing all that Jalalabad has to offer. Even racing games have a toggle so that you can actually _see_ the cars. 1st person was a frankly terrible idea for Cyberpunk.
Be prepared because CDPR fanboys are gonna spam the entire comment section claiming that game is fixed. Cyberpunk was 6/10 on release and is 7/10 now. DLSS is still not fixed. CDPR forum is full of people complaining about flashing lights and terrible performance after patch 2.0. AI is still as stupid as people who preorder games, gunplay sucks, choices don't exist, cars go flying here and there but yeah, game is "fixed". Also, still not an RPG
Started in February of this year and at 336 hrs and still have a few gigs and 40 gang hideouts left I been binging car theft missions visiting the bar in between to decompress head to the hideout inDogtown to crash into a drunk slumber so I can wake up and visit 4 ripperdocs to distribute stolen weapons from murdered enemy gang members afterwards visit a vehicle dealer to reward my blood soaked crusade with a new super car to race later that night- this is why I cant stop playing the role play is ridiculous even after beating the story and the DLC.
I could not disagree with you more. Maybe there's a massive difference between PC and console. Your footage looks terrible, so I assume you're either on console or have all of your settings turned down to the minimum. I have seen almost zero pop-in, nearly no duplicate NPCs or cars, my streets are crowded with people. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're either playing on a potato PC or on console and judging it off of that, which I don't have any experience with, so fair enough if that's the case. But if you're telling me this has been your experience on PC with maxed graphics then I'm gonna call BS. Your video comes across as very clickbaity and disingenuous. Vague claims that largely come down to personal preference, or just being contrary because it's popular. It's fine if you don't like the game. And sure, there are still minor bugs. But after hundreds of hours in this game in the last two months my experience is nothing like your claims or even your footage, which looks like it was taken on a PS4 during its original launch. I don't even know where to get started with the claim that the story is bad or boring. I'm just not gonna touch that one.
I’ve seen popping of vehicles from time to time, but you really only notice that when you are driving out to the aldecaldo camp in the badlands. I think that’s due to being on the freeway so you have more space so you don’t really have to be looking at a closer distance to not rear end other cars🤣. In the city it’s different cause traffic bunches up and you aren’t flying at full speed looking further out
I've played 700 hours of this game. Every single playthrough has had its own unique bugs. Despite this, its been one of the most immersive games I've ever played. And I think the gameplay is significantly better than RDR2 (600 hours).
I always wonder how people can see this game as particularly immersive. Are you new to games? I see repeating assets at every corner and, aside from the FX, the art design is lazy af with bland, repeating textures and copy-paste models. Dialogues and (reactions of) lower tier NPCs are shallow, repetitive and often simply autistic. The shooting and moving is clunky at lower levels, so in the early game you can't even play it as a shooter because your movement sucks and AI is as dumb as it gets. The driving is clunky all the time. The world/level building offers rarely any depth (as in actual interaction and worthwhile exploring, there rarely is any point in going anyhwere else than the obvious paths or choosing different approaches. For me it all feels "on rails" ... much of the world is just "watch, don't engage"). The story is boring and has no proper character build-up, the looting & leveling is neither creative nor complex (compared to something like Grim Dawn or Borderlands). I really don't get it. Even a "dumb" and very much linear shooter like Doom Eternal had much more depth, emotional engagement and attention to detail than this game. I tried multiple times to force myself into the game but it just feels like cheap early 2000s game in a nice FX dress.
Saying Cyberpunk is better than RDR2 completely invalidates any opinion you could have. RDR2 is a masterpiece that had a very positive release along with it being still cherished today as one of the top games on most platforms. Cyberpunk is a joke compared to that.
The fact that you titled the video "Cyberpunk 2077 is still terrible" then proceeded to say "I think it's a decent game" within the first 2 minutes means I'm not watching the rest. Obvious telltale of a liar who wants attention.
I've played this game since launch and even from day one I never saw anything like the issues RU-vidrs have. Obviously I did experience a few but nothing that ruined the game for me
The only bug I’ve encountered is Jackie Welles walking through a car….but the only complaint I have is combat seems too easy, and I’m not even an fps guy…
Those repetetive npcs probably happen because you're in hdd mode (settings option). Disabling this will significantly reduce that. As for the car breaking bug, in my ~500 hours of play time, i have literally not seen that once. Same goes for that weird thing that happens with the motorcycle. What i do seldomly see is a npc falling through the floor when in combat (approximately 1-2 times in a playthrough). The story and lore is absolutely breathtaking. Nothing else even comes close to it. Most Characters are also very interestingly designed and have depth. Though to be fair, there was one characters that felt kinda boring (kerry eurodine) and on that was just straight up silly/nonsensical (claire russell), but the rest is pretty much excellent.
I tried to like Cyberpunk but I dont have time to watch 45 minutes of unskippable cut scenes every time I sit down to play. Thats not a game to me, thats a movie. Had to uninstall.
I bought Cp just month ago on Steam sale. For me it's mix of GTA and Skyrim but with every aspect (plot, graphics, characters) better. Sure, there are bugs (which game doesn't have ones), but overall it's jaw dropping for me.
I’m craving a futuristic RPG with deep RPG elements and first person gameplay and a crafting system with thousands of different items you pick up. This game isn’t doing it for me.
@@sayankakalita7827 You need to stop saying shit like that. If this dude feels it's the best game ever made, it's obviously because he connected with it in ways you didn't. It's a chickenshit move to belittle a person or assume they haven't experienced good gaming (or are missing out on things) just because they fawn over something you didn't.
are you people legitimately insane? The story is boring, there are barely any choices ,combat sucks as enemies are bulletsponges and the atmosphere, what atmosphere? Its gta with robotic arms, if you were talking about deus ex or stalker i woudl understand, but this game has no atmosphere.
I only had minor bugs on PC and was always able to fix it with a quick save/quick load (something that Bethesda and Rockstar are still unable to achieve: you either become a master of the console for Bethesda games or are told to restart your game and expect a different result by Rockstar games). Story wise.. I mean, just listen to yourself, you are far from being objective and one must be a fool to give any credit to such clearly biased opinion.
@@Jordan27893 This video was posted 2 weeks ago and now has 20,000 views, yet with a ratioed 1k thumbs up vs 1.1k thumbs down... and even at launch, the game received 63000 negative reviews vs well over 226,000 positive reviews. This was at launch with all the bugs. 2 months back, the game somehow managed to peak over the "Overwhelmingly Positive" from it's previous "Mixed" reviews on Steam. As of today, it finally leveled out to a solid "Very Positive". The devs got to work and they did good. So don't get it twisted my friend... you are in the minority on this one. The majority rules that this game is excellent while the minority thinks it's dogshit for "reasons". But in the end, who gives a fuck, right? :) Just play or don't play.
I hear you and i respect your opinion. Cyberpunk 2077 is one of my favorite games ever. I didn't play the game until this past October so post almost all the updates. I don't have the nasty taste of the early build clouding my judgement and maybe that skews my perspective. All i know is i've played through it 4 times since then and i plan on playing it again once i get through my first playthrough of FF7: Rebirth.
Also finished this game only recently. I have never been this 50/50 on a game. The game has many REALLY good sides, but also many REALLY bad ones. Awesome world that looks great but unfortunately npc are very stale and exploring without looking at points of interest feels unrewarding. Awesome world-lore with Johnny being a unique way to tell a story but unfortunately most of the characters are very shallow and even feel copy pasted in their stories. There are many more things like that and yet I‘m totally fine with people calling cyberpunk a good game. But one needs to have really low standards to call it a masterpiece.
Red Dead is so linear to the point where if you try to approach missions in a different way, you fail the mission. The story is good though and the characters are awesome. I hate when Dutch asks me to throw more money in the tithing box though after I donate $5,000 and Javier donates two feathers🤣
Cyberpunk 2077 - Fanart - Quantum Kore Squad Hello everyone, having thoroughly enjoyed my recent game on Cyberpunk 2077, I quickly got the urge to make some fanart in this universe. I drew a lot of inspiration from the concepts of artists who worked on the project, such as Lea Leonowicz and Marek Madej, but also from many others. I took the liberty of imitating the game team's presentation templates, as I wanted to match my fanart to their work as closely as possible. Inspired by corpo soldiers, I had in mind to create the armed force of a new corporation in Night City: "Quantum Kore". This idea came to me while researching the South Korean chaebol. I've put a lot of effort into these fanarts to respect the original work, and I hope you'll enjoy them!
I played this game on release on PC without major bugs. Don't know how and why but it just worked fine for me. Story was good, it was captivating and fun. One thing I could not understand is why traffic draw distance was so bad and even more confusing - why it still is. Also I tried it recently on new PC and I got more bugs with all yhe updates in first hour of gameplay than I can remember previously throughout all story. Go figure. My memories are good though so I might leave them as they are. I'd like to play the new DLC though...
This is the most horrible and shitiest takes on the game, their only mistake was to release a next gen game for previous gen consoles, I played it on release on pc and hardly experienced any bugs, its a masterpiece and sure people might not be interested in the genre, but to even call it mid is beyond me, that is just piss poor taste. Judging the game as a whole where you judge each part of the game, visuals, art, music, gameplay, story, writing, voice acting, cast, and whatever else, there is not better game. It's the greatest most technologically complex game ever made, no other game even comes close to Cyberpunk, only gripe someone can have is that they are not into the whole cyberpunk genre, nothing else can be justified. P.S. CDPR have already said that the game is suitable for next gen tech only(they learned this lesson the hard way), so if someone plays it on a dusty PS4 and then shit on the spactular work that everyone put into this, it just boils my blood.
Started playing this for the first time week ago. Easily of of the best open world games i've ever played. Love story and the pacing, world is detailed and beautiful, gameplay is fun, characters and voice acting are awesome, and they really nailed the whole cyberpunk aesthetics.
Opinions... I personally didnt like RDR2 and would place Cyberpunk in my top 10 with games like KCD, Fallout NV, Deus Ex... I didnt feel RDR2 open world was good. I would compare its open world to KCD. RDR2 seems too colorful, fake with fabolous views in every corner. Look up KCD forests for a comparison. Cyberpunk did a good job in creating an immersive open world, after 100h i still feel like im constatly seeing new things and feel like a forreign in a realistic dystopian city. About the combat, man in RDR2 every gun and enemy feels the same... Cyberpunk there are many combat compilation on yt...
I understand this point and yes rdr2 was better, but the most games today are worse than cyberpunk 2077, story’s are mostly boring, gameplay very boring and repetitive, it feels more like working without getting payed than playing a fun game, i don’t have that feeling in cyberpunk. Games like Starfield aren’t that rare today. The fights in cyberpunk are one of the best, a lot of videos show the potential of the builds. Ai in fights are still better than in other games, the balancing is good, the most game fail at that point too. I would give Cyberpunk 2077 a 7.5/10 points. Games from Ubisoft, Bethesda, EA are all under 5/10 for me and they aren’t worth it, so cyberpunk is over the mass mainstream games for me.
To be completely honest, the only thing that carried the game for me was it's graphics and RT capabilities. If you strip that out, the game is below average.
@@HenryTownsmyth I've encountered a few minor bugs here and there, most were some minor NPC models that were screwed up which is nothing in todays games. They in no way impeded on my progress and enjoyment of the game and it's still one of the best games I've played, deal with it.
I didn't experience many of the bugs in this video. I know everyone's gaming experience is different but yeah. I just don't get it. Yeah a few mods from Nexus can fix some of these bugs, this game is superior on PC without a doubt and I don't think it should have been made for consoles in the first place
@@HenryTownsmythif you’d look at literally any other video about cyberpunk other than this one, you’d see that there are no bugs. I’m actually starting to think that he actively went looking for bugs, because I have never seen any like this
Its an 8/10 game at best but I can't deny Phantom Liberty was a spine chilling experience even for someone who hated this game to the core. It's the story and characters people loved since day one and I can see why.
@@mojykz Not just to him but the high rate of gamers who dove into it. Check the Steam review charts alone. The ratio between negative vs positive even on launch cannot be denied no matter how hard you try. Maybe if you squint your eyes harder...
@@Choom2077 squinting my eyes doesnt help the fact that the story is horribly mid, the games got the most boring side missions except for a few and that the gameplay gets so reppetitive after the death of jackie.
This game could've been a linear semi-world game. The story and everything that's scripted are amazing. But the open world is trash that it's pointless.
*their biggest mistake was making the game completely open world 👎 should've been structured more like Deus Ex so they could focus on each NPC being fully developed with intelligent AI...on the plus side, the open world is big and empty enough for them to pump out DLC for the next 5 years* 👌
Besides, Rockstars RDR2, name a better open world with better developed characters. You're chatting out of yor ass, mate. Cyberpunk is one of the most immersive experiences of the decade. It fully immerses you in its world without the sidequest bloat commont to ubisoft style games
This was supposed to be a cyber witcher 3 open world with lots of choice, customization, and interesting story path. Its none of the above but a linear generic rpg that offers nothing they promised
I bought this game and the DLC this year on PS5, so I never experienced any of the launch bugs, but I gotta say that in my experience this game has been incredibly fun and immersive with one of the most entertaining gameplay loops I have encountered in a long time. 10/10, I would absolutely recommend.
I feel very encouraged to see someone with a sober opinion on games. It is refreshing and gives me an enormous sense of wellbeing. Thank you. And I have to agree with you, CDPR made a huge effort, but this game is still a massive jank fest. And I am still sour about it being first-person.
The dialogue cutscenes in witcher 3 looked SO GOOD I still can't believe they didn't do that for this game, and I definitely agreed about it still being a jank fest and I'm on a very high end pc
I just bought the game a few days ago and gawd damn it crashes before I get to the “cd PROJEKT red” screen lmao. I did get into the game one time through administrator mode but now that doesn’t work. What’s wrong with it? Honestly considering returning it. Which is a shame because the few minutes I got to play was pretty fun.
People liking a good game makes them a bot? Seems to me the bots are the contrarians who came here to piss on the game because Starfield was getting shit on and Bethesda soy boys wanted to fight back🤣
The story telling and story is hands down the best I’ve ever played I only hope in the sequel they can improve making the world feel truly alive, because Night City is amazing 10/10 but the inhabitants of it (random NPCs) almost ruin it with being so lifeless
Not sure why you're getting the hate. It's a strange situation at the moment where devs can straight up lie at release, face massive criticism and then face praise years later for getting a game to the point it should have been at release. I still haven't bought the game and although it was on sale there was a morality holding me back haha People really need to be fighting the current state of gaming
At this point it's a whole system thing, I've personally given up on fighting the whole system if I'm gonna go early anyway. Capitalism is a bitch and a half.
It’s an RPG, of course there is dialogue in the game. Sorry the game didn’t turn out to be the regurgitated scop like CoD you want, every single year. You are just trying to be a contrarian because “it’s cool to be different or whatever”.
The main issue for cyberpunk that i have is that you need a good pc to fully enjoy the game and that it has a slow start. Reguarding the story, the main issue is that a lot of the lore is actually kinda optional. You have to read the messages, hear NPC's talk and do side missions. Yet it shows great attention to detail and honestly i find that people that dont enjoy the story have the attention span of a goldfish. The problem with the story is that you actually have to pay attention to it to enjoy it and to fully enjoy it you have to go out of your way to learn more about the world, which is a fair criticism. But the story will not hold your hand or be a dumbed down cod like story. Overall does cyberpunk have the best story? No. Is it a masterpiece? No. Is it beetter than 90% of other games fuck yes. If you are willing to invest time into this game you have fun, even if you just ignore the story, the combat makes up for it, so just try it out when its on sale. Then reguarding the video, yeah man you must have the worst pc known to man, be supper unlucky, or your cranked the settings to the max ( which you cant do if you dont have the most top of the line pc, this game has become the new crisis for performance). This video just seems like a video to grab clicks and hate on the game for engagement bait. But im just a moron on the internet that had time to burn, so take everything with a grain of salt.
I agree with many things on this video, but the story part? Man. I remember that on launch, everybody agreed the story was great. It still is great, especially the DLC, which is honestly in my top 3 stories in gaming.
And no lies have been spoken. From the still very apparent persisting issues with the game and its dead world (including "fixes" that did more harm than good i.e. people and vehicles overreactions) to the bananas level of (over)hype calling the game a masterpiece, the whole thing is a circus, it really does make you think that perhaps these are people playing their first open world, or second, and the first was the witcher 3 so the CDPR meat riding comes naturally.
