@@WesNemo yeah definitely hyped. My favorite I.P. of all time is Shadowrun, but the cyberpunk 2077 I.P. is just as badass. only real difference to me is I want magic and orcs'n'shit. Hopefully with what they learned from last time, they knock it out of the park straight from the gate.
@@TheOldestPrimordial you're right but the game is perfect right now with the dlc and all problems fixed. It has no multiplayer so there is no need to keep developing the game. It's better that they work on project orion, which could contain multiplayer which means long-term support.
I had a great experience on console as well. Started on Ps5 but moved to XBox for it’s Quality Mode and other higher visual settings (PS had a more limited back compat, not a console war post) and had an awesome time. Played through it half a dozen times since. Although back then it was a month into the new gen and not enough people had those consoles. So I can see why the response was the way it was. Game is polished now though and it really is a must play. So glad they didn’t abandone the IP and that we’re getting a sequel.

I actually bought the game day 2 because I wanted to experience the bugs, sometimes I find stuff like that fun. My copy on a ps4 pro only crashed once.
Bro, you choose the smartest path, waiting until every last feature was implemented and fixed. I wish I had done this. I believe the very last thing they did to the game was to increase the difficulty of the final boss to bring him more in line with his lore. I wish I had waited for this because even after the total game overhaul, he was still a little too easy.
@aperson4640 well, there's still promised FSR3 that was promised by both CDPR and AMD (I think it still shows Cyberpunk on AMD's website about FSR3) that's not implemented, and possibly won't be implemented at all
I didn't even bother with cyberpunk at all. Then the expansion release and the mega patch before it seemed to be getting a ton of response so I checked it out. Definitely one of my favorite play throughs.
Their comeback execution was flawless. They started cooking and I'm not sure if the anime was supposed to be an ingredient in the whole thing but it took that dish to the next level.
This game still lacks A LOT of side quests, i mean real side quests not that police work or car theft, a story driven side quests and A LOT of random encounters on street, NC looks pretty safe as place to live, not what they promised us.
Oddly enough, the disastrous launch has in a way kind of helped the game. The bar has been set so low that the game simply being *competent* or *functional* after all the updates has made people go, "see??? It's finally the great game that it was meant to be!" Even though it's still a far cry from being the ground-breaking open world RPG experience that CDPR initially promised. I'm glad that the game is overall enjoyable now, but lets not pretend that its suddenly setting a new standard.
@@eddyram4932 since all the updates there’s literally so many side quest whether it’s cops gang stealing cars and then Dogtown just added a whole new level
I got it on steam sale. Its been nice. I do have a problem with the false illusion of choice impact. I rather they just play out the cut scene without pretending like what i say matters lol
I'd say about 80% of the time it matters what you say and that can change certain situations, relationships, missions and the ending. So you are wrong bro.
I'd still prefer 3rd cause what's the char creator for? Still doesn't make any sense. Different outfits. Just ridiclulous we have this features but can only see them in mirror or photomode. Just lazy, imo.
I actually find myself thinking about V and the adventure I had with him from time to time. One particular moment i can’t shake is saying goodbye to Judy as she decides to move to Portland. She was The love of Vs life but he could never have her. Beautiful moment.
@@yaratv2000 So they hired *one* person who departed from SBI, in a yet unknown capacity but certainly no executive role since those will go to Cyberpunk Veteran developers. Which effectively means SBI is in no capacity involved with Cyberpunk Orion, which is reflected on their Wiki Page that lists every Project, even those whose release is potentially years away, and Orion isn't on that list. God, imagine a World where people like you don't exist, who cry "woke" at mere shadows on the Wall. Would be one step closer to Utopia.
They do not have any Sweet Baby Inc writers. I'm seeing a lot of you say this because Mary Kelley was hired (who was an advocate for SBI on her personal Twitter). So I get the confusion. But lets not say they're actually working with Sweet Baby Inc consultants, because they're not. She also made it clear that she cannot self insert any activist material if the devs don't want it. She has no power over it, she assured everyone. She's simply a writer on the team. Sweet Baby Inc themselves, have 0% connection to CDPR right now. If that is to change in the future, then we can cry wolf.
As someone who kinda forgot about this game due to its crappy launch, and being reminded that it existed after watching Edge Runners, I can say that the show alone basically saved this game's life
@@dmnd7nope I agree it was the show the show got a lot more people playing that didn't bother trying it say 1 who buys a whole game for a DLC when the game has non stop drama the show got so many people playing and into the genre
well, it really wasnt in a horrible state or anything, tons of people played it with no issues. its just the people who played it on old gen who had problems.
@Jacket50Blessings I played it and the experience was horrible. I could see the potential but it was filled with bugs. Still has some bugs, like the overwatch rifle for example. Can't complete my wail because it's stuck in my character inventory.
I only played the game for the first time in June on a fresh PC build, and I am glad that both the base game and its expansion in its present state were my introduction.
The fact it was first person is what kept me from playing it until last month...I was bored and gave it a shot, now I have 200 hours and starting my 3rd playthrough, I did male V/nomad first, then male V again but different choices. Now I am doing female V/streetkid and I will probably do another play again after. We will never know what third person would of been but I feel first person was the right choice. The mechanics they were able to do with first person just wouldnt work in 3rd, and wouldnt be as impactful. 20 out of 10 game, love the world, love the story and god I wish we got another expansion. Instead they are making Cyberpunk 2 with an american dev team meaning itll be a lump of garbage. The story will be awful and I can guarentee they will ruin the aesthetic of the game. Luckily we will always have Cyberpunk 2077 with mods
yup. It'll be full of "diversity" and woke culture especially since it's being made in Boston. Unless the directors can reign them in and ensure that any "DEI requirements" get put in tastefully and not some bullshit integral part of the story. I'm hopeful but I will not be pre-ordering this game for the sole reason that it's developed in the U.S.... Lord willing we will get a cyberpunk making a name for themselves story and not a lets fight systemic oppression steaming lump of shit.
They just hired an activist writer from Ubisoft I think. She said that they have to put all the efforts for diversity and inclusion. So there, as much as I love the game, I won’t be getting the next Cyberpunk day one. I will have a a wait and see approach, but I have no hopes for that next fame being good.
@@BurnerShiro yep, she wants 3% of the population to be 50% in game. She wants to see every character gay so she feels represented and special...forget good storytelling, gotta check those boxes
Try female v corpo if you plan on doing another one. It fits more with a female character imo. Snarky corpo woman who lost everything resorts to taking on merc work in the dangerous streets of NC to scrape by.
Same I was lucky 1% that didn't see any glitches on PC. Unless you count running next to a vehicle's bumper an unoptimized script. In the first month I found 7 roof tops the dev didn't think people would reach, reached and I fell to the underworld and had to reload from a check point. The inventory limit was reached fast.
While it wasn't super smooth and polished, I was able to play with only a few issues on an Xbox One. The PS4 (Pro) wouldn't play it at all, crashes each time I tried to load it. This game is great! So many ways to play, in fact, I'm about to start yet another walk through. Orion should be just as cool, I can't wait.
The game is as vast as the Pacific Ocean, but it's only ever as deep as a puddle. I hope the sequel is more along the lines of what they originally wanted to deliver.
I still remember playing it on PC at launch and wondering how everyone was having so many issues. My game crashed twice. That's it. That's the only problem I had at all with the game during that launch time frame. No bugs, no glitches, no game breaking issues besides those two crashes. Guess I just lucked out. Been playing it off and on since. On my 4th playthrough and this time is for the "secret" ending.
This game is better in first person because it forces YOU the player to feel the moral weight of every decision V makes as if you were living their life through your eyes
I had a decent experience at launch loved the DLC. They did so great with Witcher 3 I just kinda blindly trusted them and though the game had its problems I always loved it. The world they created is just that good and the fixes and improvements only made it better. Look forward to their next take on this universe.
Its funny cause i didnt experience my first glitch till i was in the final mission to beat the game, all the sound cut out for the last mission other than that game was fun as heck
The gangs definitely do play a role in the game. So many of the gigs and side stories to be uncovered in the world have to do with characters from the different games. Not to mention the several main story missions around maelstrom, voodoo boys, etc
I play on a PC and am a recent player. I am on the 2.01 version. I wholeheartedly agree that Cyberpunk is an amazing game! I love everything about it. I wonder if the pandemic had anything to do with the slow start.
Currently playing through on a 4090, 7800X3D and years of post launch improvements and I’m glad I waited….i bought it at launch with a 2080ti and after the disastrous launch, I made the hard choice to wait. And wait I did. And I am so damn happy that I did. Because what I’m playing right now is a masterpiece.
i just hope we wont have to wait 10 or more years just for a sequel. im praying it comes out at least in 4-5 years, because im in love with this game, and i only started playing it after phantom liberty came out
i played for the first time on 2.1 and it was crazy im glad i waited til it was on steam sale 3 years later lol, cause now i look back on my experience with cyberpunk almost as fondly as my first witcher 3 play through
i first avoided cyberpunk 2077 because of its launch but im glad i waited till version 1.6 to buy the game. It became one of my top 10 games and i still play it to this day update 2.0 was AWESOME
So i bought this game on sale, sometime within the first year of release, but i never got around to playing it. It sat uninstalled for over a year. A few weeks ago I finally downloaded it and started my first playthrough. Im so grateful to my past self for not playing it any sooner, its such a fantastic game, so great i immediately bought the DLC after about 30 hours in my first playthrough. Still on my first playthrough and already thinking about my next V build
I did the same thing; I started playing it in late 2021 and, while the ps4 version was still buggy, it was a relatively good experience; then when I upgraded to the PS5, it was a completely different experience (in a great way) I didn’t play it again until about three months ago and I am still playing the game and enjoying every moment of it
Bought a copy at launch, returned it and finally repurchased it a bit before 2.0 patch dropped. I can still see the shortcomings in the story web but it’s a great game
Anybody that played the TTRPG knows that its first 2 versions were set in 2013 and 2020. The first trailer for 2077 was released in 2013 and then the game was later announced to be released in 2020. I've always thought this was intended to be some sort of marketing "Easter egg". But instead of it being some cool little bit of information that CDPR could point out it instead turned into a massive blunder when at the end of 2020 they still weren't quite finished with the game and released it anyway.
I had the game since it dropped and just last night installed visual mods. This is hands down my favorite game and now looks like I am playing in real life. lol
This game has been my favorite singleplayer experience since it first came out. Even in its buggy state, it was like nothing I ever played and I loved every second of that first playthrough, and even more so for the second (post fix) and third (post phantom liberty) playthroughs. This game is a masterpiece in my book
I love the first person, but i think more studios need to do 1st and 3rd person perspectives like gta, fallout, and elder scrolls. Its nice to have detailed first person experiences along side 3rd person to see your outfits or large area sceneries when you want.
I am just now playing it for my first time through (don't get a lot of game time. Kids.) and was really annoyed when I found out that the 2.0 update was only released for PS5, not PS4.
I joined the Cyberpunk community late on, I think around when patch 1.5 was live. I did experience the odd bug here and there, but overall I was so gripped by the game. But then when 2.0 and Phantom Liberty came out, my god. It was the game that CDPR promised it to be. I really hope the next installment in the Cyberpunk world carries on the good work the chooms at CDPR have done with Cyberpunk 2077
Day 1 xbox one x. The only thing i had, it was hard crashing every 3rd hour, some small bugs nothing critical. So i was playing nonstop first 5 days, around 100+ hours in a first week or so.
It's crazy cyberpunk 2077 is my first cdpr game and I was so addicted to the story. Even tho I played it on release I never quit the game because of the story I think I played story over more then 10 times and it's just so strong. And with the phantom liberty DLC the game is just breathtaking.
I love the first person for Cyberpunk 2077, it adds so much to the immersion. But when it comes to traveling around NC an all, I'm on my bike in third person to enjoy how my character looks.
New Game Plus is completely doable despite the reasons they gave for not doing it. Dying Light 2 did it to where New Game Plus skips the prologue and dumps you right in the map with all the previously collected gear, upgrades & skills earned. Here's how CDPR could do it for Cyberpunk: You'll start at the Difficulty option screen then it'll skip the character creator and lifepath selector since you'll be replaying on the same character save you did previously. Then it skips where you meet Jackie and goes straight to the 6th month montage then starts you at the Scav/Sandra Dorsett mission with all your gear, upgrades, clothing, money, stats etc. and that's essentially how they could do it.
Those who expect it to be perfect on day one probably only ever played Witcher 3 after it was patched over a few times. CDpr games had always been jank since Witcher 1(it had to be fixed in Enhanced Edition), Witcher 3 had a lot of bugs early on as well that I got stuck unable to leave to Skellige on the ship as it keep crashing, not to mention sometimes Geralt's face morphed away from his head, the usual Roach hijinks, etc. The time I got my hands on Cyberpunk it atleast was playable from start to finish with some funny stuff happening. People's expectation almost killed it.
1st and 3rd person shouldve been an oprion. ive played since launch, love the game, always come back to it. cdpr should not stop adding to it until orion, imo. new game plus, and more additional stories will always be wanted.
I delayed getting the game because of the initial issues. I also went out of my way to know nothing before going into it. I hate having the ending spoiled before I can play a game. In this case, I wish I had. Once I started playing it was an ok game, but as soon as it became clear that V was going to die, I lost all interest and quit playing.
There is just so much in Cyperpunk, i wish i could tag areas of the map so i can return later and really explore that location. it wouldn't take much to implement this as another level of detail on the map.
I pre-ordered this game and played it at launch. I loved the game from the start even with all the bugs and I might be biased because I played Cyberpunk 2020 with my friends back in the day. I just loved being immersed in that world and now that the game's been updated the way it has it's become one of my favorite games of all time.
Nice video, but to be clear CDPR has said recently that they might be interested in doing small content updates for Cyberpunk. And FSR 3.0 is already confirmed to be on the way. Support for the game isn't completely finished just yet.
This is a perfect game on next gen consoles and pc I just played my first playthrough this year after all the problems at launch I just never gave this game a chance and was kinda not hyped for a first person game but I can appreciate the choice and actually find it very immersive maybe if some cutscenes were in third person and we can see ourselves that’s literally my only complaint
Other gaming companies-and those in other industries as well-should study how CDPR responded following Cyberpunk’s release. No redirection or pointing fingers; just admitting their mistakes, putting their nose to the grindstone, and working steadily over years to improve the product. That’s how you rebuild consumers’ trust.
Hope you enjoyed this video! Are you hyped for Project Orion?

I'm glad that the game is overall enjoyable now, but lets not pretend that its suddenly setting a new standard.
@@eddyram4932 since all the updates there’s literally so many side quest whether it’s cops gang stealing cars and then Dogtown just added a whole new level
@@infamos21 a couple sidequests and cops that barely do anything. Again, bare bones.
Never had any reel game breaking bugs or crashes since day 1 playing
I did
My favorite game since day one. I experienced no issues aside from some clipping my first go round.
After several years, it has become my favorite game.
I got it on steam sale. Its been nice. I do have a problem with the false illusion of choice impact. I rather they just play out the cut scene without pretending like what i say matters lol
I'd say about 80% of the time it matters what you say and that can change certain situations, relationships, missions and the ending. So you are wrong bro.
@@ivanaleksandartsanev1693Yeah, except he is completely right. We are talking about meaningful differences, not dialogue tree differences.
@@w4gn4o I'm not sure what you mean. What difference would you like to see that isn't in the game?
Most games with 'choices' are like this. Neat little differences here and there but nothing humongous.
Was happy they didn't go 3rd person. Would not like Batman/Witcher style combat.
Game is 10/10. Incredible writing, so many ways to approach a job.
agreed
I'd still prefer 3rd cause what's the char creator for? Still doesn't make any sense. Different outfits. Just ridiclulous we have this features but can only see them in mirror or photomode.
Just lazy, imo.
I actually find myself thinking about V and the adventure I had with him from time to time. One particular moment i can’t shake is saying goodbye to Judy as she decides to move to Portland. She was The love of Vs life but he could never have her. Beautiful moment.
Nah, it's Panam supremacy is the canon V storyline. 🗿
The biggest red flag for Cyberpunk Orion are the Sweet Baby Inc writers.
Yup......
I thought they said no?
@@yaratv2000 Please tell us you're joking? Here's hoping they are ignored and pushed out by their betters.
@@yaratv2000
So they hired *one* person who departed from SBI, in a yet unknown capacity but certainly no executive role since those will go to Cyberpunk Veteran developers.
Which effectively means SBI is in no capacity involved with Cyberpunk Orion, which is reflected on their Wiki Page that lists every Project, even those whose release is potentially years away, and Orion isn't on that list.
God, imagine a World where people like you don't exist, who cry "woke" at mere shadows on the Wall.
Would be one step closer to Utopia.
They do not have any Sweet Baby Inc writers. I'm seeing a lot of you say this because Mary Kelley was hired (who was an advocate for SBI on her personal Twitter).
So I get the confusion. But lets not say they're actually working with Sweet Baby Inc consultants, because they're not.
She also made it clear that she cannot self insert any activist material if the devs don't want it. She has no power over it, she assured everyone. She's simply a writer on the team. Sweet Baby Inc themselves, have 0% connection to CDPR right now. If that is to change in the future, then we can cry wolf.
As someone who kinda forgot about this game due to its crappy launch, and being reminded that it existed after watching Edge Runners, I can say that the show alone basically saved this game's life
Edgerunners was phenomenal. I really hope they do another anime in the Cyberpunk universe.
no, 2.0 and phantom saved it.
@@dmnd7nope I agree it was the show the show got a lot more people playing that didn't bother trying it say 1 who buys a whole game for a DLC when the game has non stop drama the show got so many people playing and into the genre
@@lovetodrawstufff3644nope I agree that if 2.0 and liberty never released edgerunnners alone wouldn't of saved this game
Not true, the game still did pretty well despite the rocky start. If anything the anime only made it even more popular and more so "mainstream"
glad i always way a year before buying any games, i got cyberpunk for 5$, had no gameplay issues, and its now my fav game of all time
Yeah you definitely struck gold with that deal and a year after the debacle. 5 dollars? Where?
Cmon now, where is the mention of patch 2.1, 2.11 and 2.12? Those brought some nice goodies too!
It’s crazy to think of the state this game started in
well, it really wasnt in a horrible state or anything, tons of people played it with no issues. its just the people who played it on old gen who had problems.
@Jacket50Blessings I played it and the experience was horrible. I could see the potential but it was filled with bugs. Still has some bugs, like the overwatch rifle for example. Can't complete my wail because it's stuck in my character inventory.
I definitely would have preferred cyberpunk as a 3rd person with an optional 1st person for shooter builds.
I only played the game for the first time in June on a fresh PC build, and I am glad that both the base game and its expansion in its present state were my introduction.
My only problem with this games is that we don’t have badass takedowns yet
The fact it was first person is what kept me from playing it until last month...I was bored and gave it a shot, now I have 200 hours and starting my 3rd playthrough, I did male V/nomad first, then male V again but different choices. Now I am doing female V/streetkid and I will probably do another play again after. We will never know what third person would of been but I feel first person was the right choice. The mechanics they were able to do with first person just wouldnt work in 3rd, and wouldnt be as impactful. 20 out of 10 game, love the world, love the story and god I wish we got another expansion. Instead they are making Cyberpunk 2 with an american dev team meaning itll be a lump of garbage. The story will be awful and I can guarentee they will ruin the aesthetic of the game. Luckily we will always have Cyberpunk 2077 with mods
yup. It'll be full of "diversity" and woke culture especially since it's being made in Boston. Unless the directors can reign them in and ensure that any "DEI requirements" get put in tastefully and not some bullshit integral part of the story. I'm hopeful but I will not be pre-ordering this game for the sole reason that it's developed in the U.S.... Lord willing we will get a cyberpunk making a name for themselves story and not a lets fight systemic oppression steaming lump of shit.
It's like i hear myself talking about the game it's scary :D SAME!
They just hired an activist writer from Ubisoft I think. She said that they have to put all the efforts for diversity and inclusion. So there, as much as I love the game, I won’t be getting the next Cyberpunk day one. I will have a a wait and see approach, but I have no hopes for that next fame being good.
@@BurnerShiro yep, she wants 3% of the population to be 50% in game. She wants to see every character gay so she feels represented and special...forget good storytelling, gotta check those boxes
Try female v corpo if you plan on doing another one. It fits more with a female character imo. Snarky corpo woman who lost everything resorts to taking on merc work in the dangerous streets of NC to scrape by.
I waited years for the game. I saw the opening day mess and waited another few years for bug fixes >.
Same I was lucky 1% that didn't see any glitches on PC. Unless you count running next to a vehicle's bumper an unoptimized script. In the first month I found 7 roof tops the dev didn't think people would reach, reached and I fell to the underworld and had to reload from a check point. The inventory limit was reached fast.
While it wasn't super smooth and polished, I was able to play with only a few issues on an Xbox One. The PS4 (Pro) wouldn't play it at all, crashes each time I tried to load it.
This game is great! So many ways to play, in fact, I'm about to start yet another walk through. Orion should be just as cool, I can't wait.
The game is as vast as the Pacific Ocean, but it's only ever as deep as a puddle. I hope the sequel is more along the lines of what they originally wanted to deliver.
Exactly. Cp2077 was vapid, this, lifeless, and has no soul.
Then Cyberpunk 2077 is heading down to hell when CDPR recruits mary kenneys as senior writer.
Rest In Panic
I came back to cyberpunk after like a year or more, and it changed a LOT. Now is fun, playable, and i know it has a lot to offer.
I'm so glad i was one of the fortunate few that didn't have any real issue day 1 on PC
I still remember playing it on PC at launch and wondering how everyone was having so many issues. My game crashed twice. That's it. That's the only problem I had at all with the game during that launch time frame. No bugs, no glitches, no game breaking issues besides those two crashes. Guess I just lucked out. Been playing it off and on since. On my 4th playthrough and this time is for the "secret" ending.
i love this game so much. i can’t count how many times i’ve played through it. i’m proud to say this is my favorite game of all time.
Don't forget the Stadia launch...virtually no bugs, very playable from day one! Strange given how few people used it.
This is now one of the greatest games ever made
Yeah but only in your dreams.
1:48 this game would have been amazing in third person perspective!
This game is better in first person because it forces YOU the player to feel the moral weight of every decision V makes as if you were living their life through your eyes
I was on ps4 pro since day 1, every single crash was worth it, this game has always been amazing to play, blew my mind and they only improved on it
I had a decent experience at launch loved the DLC. They did so great with Witcher 3 I just kinda blindly trusted them and though the game had its problems I always loved it. The world they created is just that good and the fixes and improvements only made it better. Look forward to their next take on this universe.
Its funny cause i didnt experience my first glitch till i was in the final mission to beat the game, all the sound cut out for the last mission other than that game was fun as heck
When you said they ADDED the toggle to walk on PC I was so surprised. 300 hours in and I gotta say that this is my most used key.
The gangs definitely do play a role in the game. So many of the gigs and side stories to be uncovered in the world have to do with characters from the different games. Not to mention the several main story missions around maelstrom, voodoo boys, etc
Never fade away CP2077
It was pushed out 2 years too early. I blame the suits.
I play on a PC and am a recent player. I am on the 2.01 version. I wholeheartedly agree that Cyberpunk is an amazing game! I love everything about it. I wonder if the pandemic had anything to do with the slow start.
I remember the glitch I kept getting was the mantis blades would drag at my feet and stretch out
Who else known about the cyberpunk dlc and project Orion since 2022
Currently playing through on a 4090, 7800X3D and years of post launch improvements and I’m glad I waited….i bought it at launch with a 2080ti and after the disastrous launch, I made the hard choice to wait. And wait I did. And I am so damn happy that I did. Because what I’m playing right now is a masterpiece.
i just hope we wont have to wait 10 or more years just for a sequel. im praying it comes out at least in 4-5 years, because im in love with this game, and i only started playing it after phantom liberty came out
i played for the first time on 2.1 and it was crazy im glad i waited til it was on steam sale 3 years later lol, cause now i look back on my experience with cyberpunk almost as fondly as my first witcher 3 play through
as a day one player i’m happy they gave this game a chance again
i first avoided cyberpunk 2077 because of its launch but im glad i waited till version 1.6 to buy the game. It became one of my top 10 games and i still play it to this day update 2.0 was AWESOME
that one mod in chat saying "too early for cyber punk" was right... they rushed it out.
Just started playing this a few days ago. It's amazing.
So i bought this game on sale, sometime within the first year of release, but i never got around to playing it. It sat uninstalled for over a year. A few weeks ago I finally downloaded it and started my first playthrough. Im so grateful to my past self for not playing it any sooner, its such a fantastic game, so great i immediately bought the DLC after about 30 hours in my first playthrough. Still on my first playthrough and already thinking about my next V build
I did the same thing; I started playing it in late 2021 and, while the ps4 version was still buggy, it was a relatively good experience; then when I upgraded to the PS5, it was a completely different experience (in a great way) I didn’t play it again until about three months ago and I am still playing the game and enjoying every moment of it
Bought a copy at launch, returned it and finally repurchased it a bit before 2.0 patch dropped. I can still see the shortcomings in the story web but it’s a great game
Great content man!!
Anybody that played the TTRPG knows that its first 2 versions were set in 2013 and 2020. The first trailer for 2077 was released in 2013 and then the game was later announced to be released in 2020. I've always thought this was intended to be some sort of marketing "Easter egg". But instead of it being some cool little bit of information that CDPR could point out it instead turned into a massive blunder when at the end of 2020 they still weren't quite finished with the game and released it anyway.
I had the game since it dropped and just last night installed visual mods. This is hands down my favorite game and now looks like I am playing in real life. lol
This game has been my favorite singleplayer experience since it first came out. Even in its buggy state, it was like nothing I ever played and I loved every second of that first playthrough, and even more so for the second (post fix) and third (post phantom liberty) playthroughs. This game is a masterpiece in my book
I love the first person, but i think more studios need to do 1st and 3rd person perspectives like gta, fallout, and elder scrolls. Its nice to have detailed first person experiences along side 3rd person to see your outfits or large area sceneries when you want.
I am just now playing it for my first time through (don't get a lot of game time. Kids.) and was really annoyed when I found out that the 2.0 update was only released for PS5, not PS4.
I still say that the effort they put into PL shouldve been put into fixing and expanding the game into what they promised.
I joined the Cyberpunk community late on, I think around when patch 1.5 was live. I did experience the odd bug here and there, but overall I was so gripped by the game. But then when 2.0 and Phantom Liberty came out, my god. It was the game that CDPR promised it to be. I really hope the next installment in the Cyberpunk world carries on the good work the chooms at CDPR have done with Cyberpunk 2077
The Pacifica incompletion is cannon from the tabletop….
I played only recently and never played the first time so I am super happy with the game and invested 600+ hrs into it.
Cyberpunk 2077 was one of the few games that recovered from a very very disappointing launch and turned into greatness
maybe cyberpunk 2077 was the friends we made along the way
Day 1 xbox one x. The only thing i had, it was hard crashing every 3rd hour, some small bugs nothing critical. So i was playing nonstop first 5 days, around 100+ hours in a first week or so.
I don't think this game is ready for attention yet. They can keep working.
Cyberpunk is definitely one of my favorite games I’ve ever played
It's crazy cyberpunk 2077 is my first cdpr game and I was so addicted to the story. Even tho I played it on release I never quit the game because of the story I think I played story over more then 10 times and it's just so strong. And with the phantom liberty DLC the game is just breathtaking.
I love the first person for Cyberpunk 2077, it adds so much to the immersion. But when it comes to traveling around NC an all, I'm on my bike in third person to enjoy how my character looks.
New Game Plus is completely doable despite the reasons they gave for not doing it. Dying Light 2 did it to where New Game Plus skips the prologue and dumps you right in the map with all the previously collected gear, upgrades & skills earned.
Here's how CDPR could do it for Cyberpunk:
You'll start at the Difficulty option screen then it'll skip the character creator and lifepath selector since you'll be replaying on the same character save you did previously. Then it skips where you meet Jackie and goes straight to the 6th month montage then starts you at the Scav/Sandra Dorsett mission with all your gear, upgrades, clothing, money, stats etc. and that's essentially how they could do it.
Those who expect it to be perfect on day one probably only ever played Witcher 3 after it was patched over a few times. CDpr games had always been jank since Witcher 1(it had to be fixed in Enhanced Edition), Witcher 3 had a lot of bugs early on as well that I got stuck unable to leave to Skellige on the ship as it keep crashing, not to mention sometimes Geralt's face morphed away from his head, the usual Roach hijinks, etc. The time I got my hands on Cyberpunk it atleast was playable from start to finish with some funny stuff happening. People's expectation almost killed it.
1st and 3rd person shouldve been an oprion. ive played since launch, love the game, always come back to it. cdpr should not stop adding to it until orion, imo. new game plus, and more additional stories will always be wanted.
Add a 3rd person mode if only it is just non combat.
May actually buy this now. It looked interesting at first but the bug issues didn’t sound worth it. Glad they fixed everything.
My personal favorite game. I will play it again after finishing all the endings and secret endings once they release the New Game+ mode.
I honestly think they could build on the first game. There is so much in the game world that felt unfinished or had lots of potential.
Phantom Liberty is my favorite expansion ever. That is the reason my thumb changed from a BG3 to this. Amazing writting and characters.
I delayed getting the game because of the initial issues. I also went out of my way to know nothing before going into it. I hate having the ending spoiled before I can play a game. In this case, I wish I had. Once I started playing it was an ok game, but as soon as it became clear that V was going to die, I lost all interest and quit playing.
There is just so much in Cyperpunk, i wish i could tag areas of the map so i can return later and really explore that location. it wouldn't take much to implement this as another level of detail on the map.
I pre-ordered this game and played it at launch. I loved the game from the start even with all the bugs and I might be biased because I played Cyberpunk 2020 with my friends back in the day. I just loved being immersed in that world and now that the game's been updated the way it has it's become one of my favorite games of all time.
I just waited for a year or so, until the 2.0 update and Dlc came out and had s blast with it
Nice video, but to be clear CDPR has said recently that they might be interested in doing small content updates for Cyberpunk. And FSR 3.0 is already confirmed to be on the way. Support for the game isn't completely finished just yet.
This is a perfect game on next gen consoles and pc I just played my first playthrough this year after all the problems at launch I just never gave this game a chance and was kinda not hyped for a first person game but I can appreciate the choice and actually find it very immersive maybe if some cutscenes were in third person and we can see ourselves that’s literally my only complaint
Playing Cyberpunk 2077 in 2023 was an amazingly great experience, and the phantom liberty expansion was a masterpiece.
The game is so good that You never get bored. No game came near gta like cyberpunk.
When this game first came out, I played it on console, it was buggy, but I absolutely loved it, couldn't sleep for a couple of days.
Other gaming companies-and those in other industries as well-should study how CDPR responded following Cyberpunk’s release. No redirection or pointing fingers; just admitting their mistakes, putting their nose to the grindstone, and working steadily over years to improve the product. That’s how you rebuild consumers’ trust.
Love this game. If you haven't played it since launch I suggest you do. I was a pre order recipient. And it's changed are day and night.
