Love the video bro also wanted to say that I also primarily play on ps5 but I played this game on pc and it feels 100x better on keyboard and mouse. With the console version the default sensitivity settings make the game feel very slow and sluggish and janky like you said and I beat this game 3 times on console and I recently downloaded the ps5 version to play again and I can’t play this game with controller. If you find some good sensitivity settings please reply with them that would help a lot but the ones I’ve seen on Reddit didn’t really make it anymore better. I went back to playing it on pc and I’m playing it for the 8th time now
The only thing I wish we had were flying cars.. and maybe some time of advanced parcore mechanics. Night city has a lot of verticality but we could never explore it 😢
There are several mods for that, but in my opinion, although the flying cars are very cool, they were never part of the original design of the game, for that there are the AV (Aerodyne Vehicle), that all the time you see them flying through the sky but originally you can't drive them because they are just part of the decoration, but fortunately there is already a mod that allows you to drive all of them and it's great, unlike the flying car mod, with the VA mod you can move around the city with the other VA you see around you and feel good because you are not the only person with a flying ship of that type, you feel integrated, it feels natural.
Regarding Parkour, with the double jump cyberware and the air dash skill is completely enough, as it allows you to jump long distances to move between rooftops and jump between platforms and obstacles, allowing you to climb entire buildings, with a little skill it feels very fun, and even more so when you have the ability to smash enemies from above.
The "what works for you" approach is spot on. I've played a sandy wielding solo and a quickhacking netrunner, and the combat feels like it's from completely different games. It goes from a spy movie to a fast paced slaughter, and a surprising amount of dialogue is unique to your approach, with fixers commenting on your stealth and finesse as a stealth netrunner or your brutality as a solo
i gotta totally agree that at the beginning, as a 36 yo gamer who hasnt kept up with the industry for the last two decades (last console i owned was a ps2, but only owned 4 games, and had a decent gaming laptop in the early 10's, so i got to play fallout 3 and new vegas, mass effect 2, etc, than fell back out of it due to life) , and was reintroduced to how much i loved video games about 3 years ago with a nintendo switch, i felt VERY overwhelmed towards the beginning. especially when they're trying to teach u BD's, hacking, and movement/fighting mechanics. about 10-12 hours in, all the sudden it started to click. now i run around in my file with it feeling more like a scifi GTA style shoot & loot, and i started having alot of fun. cus the way i started my file (female nomad that reminds me of a cyberpunky jen lawrence lol,) i play more of a full out gunner build, just got my first Sandi, lol, but keep wanting to start a new file as a corpo and knowing more how the game works now, making better choices. lol, i missed jackies bike! cus im used to NPCs waiting for me! when he said "'hey, chica!" i just walked around the plaza to check it out... then i hear "oh, well, see ya later then..." and he rode off! now i learn i locked myself from ever getting his bike!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 edit, spelling.
I'm one of those people that often won't finish a game. There's something about this one...I don't know what it is. I've beaten it once and I'm taking my time on my second playthrough. I have 300 hours on it and I'm still playing. I don't have near that many in RDR2, GTAV, Assassin's Creed Black Flag, or even cities skylines (which is easy to lose hours in.) There's something this game got right that is just magic. I hope they really take their time on the next one and avoid a disastrous launch.
I am on my fourth playthrough, two on pc and two on PS5. The game is amazing after the 2.0 upgrade with Phantom Liberty. The story in PL is heartbreaking and so powerful. My current build is me uploading Contagion on all enemies and then shooting them with my smart smg applying burn = everyone explodes in chemical reactions. Simply amazing!
same here...i played mmos for the last decade and i had no urge to play single player games...then i heared cyberpunk was fixed with patch 2.0 and i always loved futuristic distopian worlds in games...what can i say? i completed 2 playthroughs and startet a third one wich im comming back from time to time...cyberpunk is by far the best game ive ever played...the setting, the characters, the missions, the music...just everything is perfect
I started playing it for the first time a couple of months ago and was totally blown away. I’ve just started a second play through as it’s so good I’d rather play it a second time than anything else. It’s the first time in a very, very long time I’ve ever cared about characters in a game, hell it’s the first time for a long time I’ve been so immersed I haven’t also been listening to a podcast or watching a YT video in the background but Cyberpunk made me stop that and pay attention. Also the mods are so good I’ve got a few hundred mods that just take the game up to another level.
Cyberpunk is definitely one of the best games I’ve ever played. Night City and it’s surroundings is probably the best world in any video game so far, and the gameplay as well as story is amazing!
Been playing video games since they began and Cyberpunk 2077 is the best single player ever. I grabbed Phantom Liberty as soon as it dropped . I play on PC and never really had a problem, the odd glitch but otherwise seamless. I’ve played all the profiles but Nomad is my favorite. Never bored with this game and played start to finish 6 times and have more in game money and icon everything early on in game. Have all the vehicles and only 6 achievements missing in my steam profile. Again never get sick of this game and that’s coming from a Battlefield and COD player and I have all of them as well… we’ve come long ways from digital ping pong 🤣🤣🤣
This, the old meme of "cyberpunk is bugged" its not only old, it was only last gen consoles (that by the way, didnt get the phantom liberty DLC along some other upgrades) Game was amazing since it came out, now it has better perks and lvling system and they overhauled lots of boss battles from the base game
Just started playing it as well with my new desktop and 4080 gpu. I absolutely love it so far, especially after adding about 10 mods to further enhance the graphics.
That's right, for example there are random events like Brendan's, (the smart vending machine), or the random person in the afterlife who sees you and asks you for a favor and several others like that, or also all the side jobs, that even though they are marked on the map, you always get a call or a message when you walk or drive near them unintentionally, which makes it feel random.
This video perfectly sums up what makes the game phenomenal, as well as valid criticism which I definitely agree with. This is one of my all time favourite games and I am really excited for the sequel they are working on. Good video! Definitely earned a sub 😊
Loving cyberpunk & Dystopian futures etc. I preordered & played the game the week it came out on my PS4 Pro i was working on my PC at the time. The bugs and glitching were insanely annoying but I pulled thru until the Johnny Helicopter glitch mission which would not let you land and advance. Patched it. But still I became obsessed (completely immersed in the lore of CP not to mention the stories. Years later this game is a dream come true to me as I have been playing since before they even were patching in Edgerunners (which alone is ..aaahhmazing! -Rona Thorne-) I will never forget either the game or the anime. I even play it mainly on Xbox w/o needing mods to enjoy it I often do the same on RDR2w/ PS5
The only time you can see it is when you take off all your clothes in the inventory screen, but ultimately it's just a meme setting. (I always give my female V a massive dong then romance Judy 🤣)
With any luck, the Orion sequel will give us a lot more opportunity to see the characters we create in-game, although a full 3rd-person mode isn't something I want at all.
Being OP on this game doesn't take away the fun, honestly I love to eliminate them in all forms and ways, also, even though there are some missing stuff, the game is just awesome
You know what I like now, making talking to rogue the last option before finishing everything else. The rogue and aldecaldos storyline feel so much as a ending. I always leave being in the badlands as something last.
I played game first time when it was new. I had old pc and lowest framerates and crashes every couple hours, yet still had great time because of story and fights. Looking forward to play Phantom Liberty!
6:07 this game was made for PC mostly , i mean its the best version of it on PC , it shines on all cylindres on PC with RT on and some mods , and also full native res. not upscalled like on consoles and medium to high settings for the consoles port.
I know im gonna be in the minority here, but I played this game on release on PS5, and I had a damn near flawless playthrough... I had such a blast with this game. Im rarely a single player game type of guy, but this game just had me hooked. Im considering getting this on my PC and running through it again. I wish there was a co-op.
So glad I waited until 2024 to play this game. My experience has been perfection so far. If they never had any of the release issues it would be considered an all time great, if it’s not already. If anyone gave up on this in 2020…come back and play. it’s incredible.
I've been playing this game since March 2022 [started just after Patch 1.5 was released] and it has _always_ been worth playing, IMO. The launch was rough, and the game has required a lot of polishing [and could still use some in a lot of places, in a minor way]...but it is now a masterpiece. You are correct in saying it doesn't need to change much for a successful sequel...a new story with a new cast of characters would work fine in the game in its current state, although much will inevitably change with the jump to UE5. Of course additions to the size and complexity of Night City is most desireable, and will almost certainly be included... I just hope I live to see the sequel.
My absolute favorite game and the only game on my PC and will be for years, started my 4th play through. The downfall off the game for people was the ambition, not a bad thing per say but it should have never been released on last gen consoles, I played day one and never had an issue or bug aside from those that plague all games,. Not bragging or being holier than thou, but I went broke building a top tier PC for this game in 2020 and again in 2023 for PL and I'm glad I did. Still to date and for a long while this will be the pinnacle of modern gaming, story, graphics, writing, etc.
Amazing video!! I played in 2020 one month after the release + covid in the world and I fell in love for it! On my ps4 it shut down every 30 minutes during the first updates but I still was stuck om the game and world. Then I finished it and decided to wait for the future... I was so excited when the DLC was announced and then when I got my ps5 last year, the first game in mind was Cyberpunk and wow! I also played the DLC and my difficulty was on very hard (which I highly recommend) I just say that again, one of the best RPG + DLCs ever made! I had a complete experience last year and I can't wait for the sequel!
@@julianc691 i think its a quick gameplay and immediately putting his experience out. We have the same realization after my 1st-2nd playthrough, i finished the game 13x now and it keeps on hooking me back in
Played this game day 1 on an Xbox one. I was apparently super lucky and had next to zero issues. Been one of my favorite games ever since. I now play it on pc and take full advantage of ray tracing and ultra graphics
I was more hyped about this game than anyone I knew before it came out. But when it released it was literally so bad I couldn't play it. Now it's one of my favorite games ever.
I played thru on launch. The story, sound design and visual design were absolutely top notch and imo made the game worth it. The world building was also very good and managed to hook me in. Sure, I was incredibly disappointed with the final product but still thought it was decent enough to warrant the $60. Should be noted i played on a 2080 super and 3900x and I somehow ran into minimal bugs, so definitely a different story than anyone who played on a ps4 or xbox at the time. I'm on my 2nd playthru right now and the game just about lives up to the expectations I had for it when it came out. It's just so fun now with the re-worked perks, better driving and shooting, and more atmospheric thanks to the re-worked police system and random events that occur. Definitely recommend it.
I have had 3 different playthroughs from the e different backgrounds. The first was a street kid. I did a loyd and proud playthrough (partly because I played this at launch skipping yhe side quests etc.). The second playthrough was a nomad. This was my stealth playthrough and it was incredible. The subversion tactics are ridiculous (Sandevistian made this a nightmare for enemies. I felt like quicksilver in that xmen movie). The last one i did the corpo walking nuke. And man I yell you what. I became death incarnate. I fully invested in the crafting system, the different guns, the quick hacks, the knowledge of previous playthroughs, throwing knives. Dawg ... This is my favorite game of *ALL TIME* second game is Mass Effect. This game allows you to impact the world in awesome ways. Its not the game they promised. But the fact that this fractale made it out and its this good is insane. Phantom Liberty was what this game could have been. I'm looking forward to Orion.
Just started my second playthrough. Only thing I don't like were the endings I got so far, they were pretty depressing. Also don't care too much for Dogtown as a location.
Most fun I’ve had in a long time and after my 1st play-through I installed +150 mods, coming from Skyrim modding it is sooo satisfying that modding Cyperpunk is drag and drop ez
i got a new PC last week and gave Cyberpunk 2077 another try and with 2.12 and Phantom Liberty and 2077 is loads of fun and the systems are way better implemented than the initial launch
I love the game but on the ps5 when I’m driving around there is not a lot of pedestrian or street traffic but when I get out the car and walk around then they pop up and the world feels more immersive
When it dropped i was very disappointed it was my most anticipated game of all time i cane back to it when the dlc came out and it really was amazing. Now one of my favorite games ever glad the developers didn't abandon it.
I played it when it first released on an xbox one, with its bugs and glitches I still thought it was a 10 out of 10. Didnt experience the crashes back then but thats cause I had it installed on a fast external hard drive. Started playing the game again on a high end pc that can push ultra everything with graphics maxed out and ray tracing overdrive. Game is beautiful and am having a blast. Im having fun just exploring and looking at stuff with these graphics. Night time when raining is best. I want to try a hudless run, only hud option being my health bar. Feel like it would be so much more immersive
Love the gameplay, the setting, the characters, the story. Been some time since a game has dialed me in for hours per session... or made me want to put 60 hours into one playthrough doing nearly everything. Even pulled an all nighter before work cause phantom liberty was getting damn good lol I'm glad I waited a couple years to try it. Even Witcher 3 had plenty of bugs, but the general lack of polish Cyberpunk suffered from early on was disappointing to hear about. Playing it now, feels comparable to how Witcher was for me. Also cool being able to get equipment that breaks international law by existing, thanks to the dlc.
As a first time player tho, I did think the difficulty would stay on a more even curve. Could be cause I went with a (occasionally sneaky) netrunner though. At first it was fairly challenging tbf. Then I grinded ncpd stuff for a while, took overclock and got OP as shit. Having 1300 armor and 2 free lives worth of hp to put into my "blood magic" *WITH* 100% crit for said "magic".... it's honestly stupid, guns and melee become effectively optional.
I played the game on the first day of the release on an custom Cyberpunk 2077 xbox one x,and did not have problems with the game. Until the first patches dropped and the problems started to begin for me. I like the release version more than the latest patch 2.12 version if i must be honest.
I played it back in july 2022, patch 1.4 or 1.5 I think. Even back then I absolutely adored the game, a few decently large flaws but thought it was an 8 or 8.5/10. I wanna replay it again with all the new updates and Phantom Liberty.
Oh boy you're in for an almighty treat 😍 The 2.1 overhaul patch turned it into a completely different game. It was awesome before but now it absolutely rocks!
Patch 1.5 came out late February 2022...after that, most of the major problems were pretty much fixed up, although GPU drivers could still be a problems [NVidia usually took a few tries before they got them right]. A lot of people blamed CDPR and the game for things that were actually weaknesses in their PC systems and video settings.
Who else waited 7 or 8 years to play this game after hearing “personal responsibilities, personal responsibilities, personal responsibilities,” for the first time in that sick teaser trailer way back when?
I played that game at launch and I never had any bugs. Only one side quest was buggy. Maybe people should realise that your x box do not like beer as much as you do. The expention was buggy when I played it at launch. But I m now on PS5 so not sure if that s someting to do with it.
I uninstalled this game in frustration a couple of weeks after release...it was nothing like what CDPR promised. And the last straw was being stuck on a bugged quest. But by the time 2.0 came out, I had a new PC with an RTX 4080, and I wanted to give it a chance. Started a new game...was instantly hooked! Now I have 120 hours in the game, my character is a demigod, I've seen multiple endings even in phantom liberty...it is a legit masterpiece! I am so spoiled now playing other games, seeing these wooden quest giving NPC's
I played it on day one and dropped it day 3 due to all the bugs and broken quests. I’ve just bought it on sale for pc to see if it’ll have its redemption.
I think there's definitely a fair bit of random encounters leading into questlines in the game. *spoiler warning* Most of 'em come through text, where people would text you to meet up and explain the mission either through text or in person (Ozob, Lizzy Wizzy, etc.) But sometimes you can come upon random ass quests too like the one time you come across a shady guy who ends up selling you a bd that knocks you out, or the vending machine(brendan i think?) seeming like a one off but turning into a string of missions.
Witcher three is probably my favorite game of all time and I was incredibly disappointed at the state of cyberpunk at launch. Once I wrap up at three of Baulders gate, I plan on diving into cyberpunk.
For a whole 3 yrs everyone who is talking about “ many decisions “ you can make in the missions are playing whole food quest on the background, it’s used in the preview of the game and is one of quests that have consequences, the other missions not so much. Just flavoured text. Like Panam and the button press. Why give and option if game don’t care about it? There is no reason to replay this game, it’s same story with same outcome. It’s a movie not a game.
I’ve seen every ending aside from if you end up with Kerry as a man. I agree Panam is my ride or die lol. I was broken up how the game ended with her after you got the supposed cure from phantom Liberty. I was a day 1 player on Xbox one but have gone back to it on series S and my god the difference. This is easily one of the best rpg or games in general since mass effect 2. Great video 🤙🏼
Man I avoided this game so long because of the complexity skill tree etc but I bit the bullet in February this year after losing my job at Target and recently purchasing a PS5 via employee discount what a fucking experience 256 hrs later I still have a map full of gang hideouts a gig or 2 left and the Nocutane mission I never started because I been to busy stealing car from gangs , sleeping with Panham , destroying Dogtown more than it already is and shopping the day after a drunk night at the club lol Doom and GTA 3 had a miracle baby named Night City
Had it day 1.. even put in a 1 week vacation in 2020 to play it. Legit 1 hour into Day1 I brung it back for a refund. Fast forward to July 2024.. It is exceeding my expectations! Game is amazing! I'm like 2% complete with PhantomLiberty. It's a masterpiece!
I just picked up the game again recently and installed Phantom Liberty. I’ve reached a ‘“point of no return” at Embers meeting Hanako. My question is if I walk in and progress the main story does it then lock me out of the Phantom Liberty content and other potential endings? ie. should I do the Phantom Liberty content first? It seems weird to me that I’ve got to a point of no return really quickly but have a ton of other stuff to still do!
You're fine to do the point of no return. You're only locked out of the rest of the game until you complete the ending. There are many different ending to choose from. When you've completed an ending you will have the option to choose one more gig and you'll be taken back to just down the road from Embers. It doesn't affect Phantom Liberty. You can still complete the base game and then complete Phantom Liberty. The only difference is completing Phantom Liberty will give you a new alternative ending to the base game. Phantom Liberty also has a number of different endings. Both are a wild ride! Hope that helps.
I played it at launch on Xbox One X. The console ran it pretty well. I had a blast back then. Cop system still sucked back then. Cars drove like shit. Still had a blast.
I’m truly jealous at those of y’all who rave about this game…I’ve had it in my Steam library for years now and started and stopped my playthrough numerous times because I really cannot get into the gameplay. The story seems interesting enough and I’m a sucker for visuals so that’s what makes me keep trying to get into it. I just got past the point of “dying” from Dex and now have Johnny in my head and stopped again. I think I may just need to completely restart a fresh new playthrough because I barely even know the mechanics and systems of the game since it’s changed so much. I loved the anime on Netflix, again I’m no hater, I just cannot get hooked like some of y’all
the thing is this game toggle sprint has to be clicked while running not before so you gotta click the stick while moving it to run, that feels just plain wrong, i just want to ask what console player feel about that since you cant modify the control mapping like on pc
Not glossing over the sh*tshow that Cyberpunk was on release, but CDPR should be commended for the absolute clinic it gave on how to handle a catastrophic product release and rebound from it. Bethesda, BioWare, and a whole range of companies beyond gaming should study what they did and their strategy to re-engage their customers.
The sad part is that skill and vision was always there, but the suits started feeling bulletproof after Witcher 3 and pushed this out the door years too early. Hopefully lessons were learned in the board room first and foremost.
Downloaded and finished Cyberpunk on the week in was released. PC version. 1060 GPU. Had 1 (one) crash) and no other bugs. Enjoyed it immensely. While the entire space was buzzing how terrible and buggy the game is, friends I personally know and I were just enjoying the game. Wild how different media coverage vs reality was.
It’s not just media coverage, it’s your experience vs that of others. I bought at launch on ps4, the blur was so bad it was unplayable. It’s like they knew the graphics were awful and nonfunctional at the time so they put a blur over it to cover it up. Returned it within 2 days.
Huge RIP. ESG/DEI is destroying devs everywhere but at least they made this game boss before the decline. I suppose I'll take it. Can't destroy the good old days.

Absolutely agree. I started Cyberpunk two weeks ago and am loving it
Me too but to say it is finished is pretencious. Dam, how many stuffs to fix, the list is big.
@@Felingardthere’s no more patches or dlc coming sadly
@@Felingardthis game is undoubtedly one of the greatest single player first person shooters of all time lil man
Same
I came back a few weeks ago from watching all the real_life mod videos that started turning up in my yt feed.
I’ve beat this game 7 times and yet I’m here watching this video.
Love the video bro also wanted to say that I also primarily play on ps5 but I played this game on pc and it feels 100x better on keyboard and mouse. With the console version the default sensitivity settings make the game feel very slow and sluggish and janky like you said and I beat this game 3 times on console and I recently downloaded the ps5 version to play again and I can’t play this game with controller.

I went back to playing it on pc and I’m playing it for the 8th time now
Right
same
1080 hours and itching to start another one
I wish you could skip the arasaka tower quest at the beginning though when you do another play through
I'm just playing cyberpunk now for the first time. The game is outstanding. You can literally do anything.
The only thing I wish we had were flying cars.. and maybe some time of advanced parcore mechanics. Night city has a lot of verticality but we could never explore it 😢
There are mods for this.
Mods!
There are several mods for that, but in my opinion, although the flying cars are very cool, they were never part of the original design of the game, for that there are the AV (Aerodyne Vehicle), that all the time you see them flying through the sky but originally you can't drive them because they are just part of the decoration, but fortunately there is already a mod that allows you to drive all of them and it's great, unlike the flying car mod, with the VA mod you can move around the city with the other VA you see around you and feel good because you are not the only person with a flying ship of that type, you feel integrated, it feels natural.

This.
The "what works for you" approach is spot on. I've played a sandy wielding solo and a quickhacking netrunner, and the combat feels like it's from completely different games. It goes from a spy movie to a fast paced slaughter, and a surprising amount of dialogue is unique to your approach, with fixers commenting on your stealth and finesse as a stealth netrunner or your brutality as a solo

I cannot stop playing this game lately, in fact I'm going to play it after this video
I am on my fourth playthrough, two on pc and two on PS5. The game is amazing after the 2.0 upgrade with Phantom Liberty. The story in PL is heartbreaking and so powerful.
My current build is me uploading Contagion on all enemies and then shooting them with my smart smg applying burn = everyone explodes in chemical reactions. Simply amazing!
This is one of my favourite games of all time but it's such a shame how this game launched.
I really can't wait for the sequel.
Absolutely. Once the game was fixed, the narrative surrounding it completely changed.
It’s so good. Amazing
same here...i played mmos for the last decade and i had no urge to play single player games...then i heared cyberpunk was fixed with patch 2.0 and i always loved futuristic distopian worlds in games...what can i say? i completed 2 playthroughs and startet a third one wich im comming back from time to time...cyberpunk is by far the best game ive ever played...the setting, the characters, the missions, the music...just everything is perfect

Also the mods are so good I’ve got a few hundred mods that just take the game up to another level.
Just beat it for the first time over the weekend - and never played before the DLC came out. Amazing from start to finish.
Cyberpunk is definitely one of the best games I’ve ever played. Night City and it’s surroundings is probably the best world in any video game so far, and the gameplay as well as story is amazing!
I love NC, I rarely fast travel because I like driving around so much.
there are other events that pop up. Gary The Prophet for example. Other quests turn on after you do a certain thing.
Been playing video games since they began and Cyberpunk 2077 is the best single player ever.
I grabbed Phantom Liberty as soon as it dropped .
I play on PC and never really had a problem, the odd glitch but otherwise seamless.
I’ve played all the profiles but Nomad is my favorite.
Never bored with this game and played start to finish 6 times and have more in game money and icon everything early on in game.
Have all the vehicles and only 6 achievements missing in my steam profile.
Again never get sick of this game and that’s coming from a Battlefield and COD player and I have all of them as well… we’ve come long ways from digital ping pong 🤣🤣🤣
This, the old meme of "cyberpunk is bugged" its not only old, it was only last gen consoles (that by the way, didnt get the phantom liberty DLC along some other upgrades)
Game was amazing since it came out, now it has better perks and lvling system and they overhauled lots of boss battles from the base game
Just started playing it as well with my new desktop and 4080 gpu. I absolutely love it so far, especially after adding about 10 mods to further enhance the graphics.
I was always the type of player to see any game through to the end, slog or not. Cp2077 (at release) was the game that changed that for me
cyberpunk has random events
That's right, for example there are random events like Brendan's, (the smart vending machine), or the random person in the afterlife who sees you and asks you for a favor and several others like that, or also all the side jobs, that even though they are marked on the map, you always get a call or a message when you walk or drive near them unintentionally, which makes it feel random.
High investment in quickhack and smart weapon perks makes you ridiculously OP
This video perfectly sums up what makes the game phenomenal, as well as valid criticism which I definitely agree with.
This is one of my all time favourite games and I am really excited for the sequel they are working on.
Good video! Definitely earned a sub 😊
Glad you enjoyed the video!
I never skipped dialogue on my first run, only skipped the ride sometimes.
After you learn what play style you want to use in the game it gets really fun to play
Loving cyberpunk & Dystopian futures etc. I preordered & played the game the week it came out on my PS4 Pro i was working on my PC at the time. The bugs and glitching were insanely annoying but I pulled thru until the Johnny Helicopter glitch mission which would not let you land and advance. Patched it. But still I became obsessed (completely immersed in the lore of CP not to mention the stories. Years later this game is a dream come true to me as I have been playing since before they even were patching in Edgerunners (which alone is ..aaahhmazing! -Rona Thorne-) I will never forget either the game or the anime. I even play it mainly on Xbox w/o needing mods to enjoy it I often do the same on RDR2w/ PS5
Why have Genital options if you never once are able to see it in game? That’s what never made any sense to me about that customization option 💀
The only time you can see it is when you take off all your clothes in the inventory screen, but ultimately it's just a meme setting. (I always give my female V a massive dong then romance Judy 🤣)
Real
It was supposed to show actual intercourse, but because of how that would effect the release of the game , it was removed from the release.
With any luck, the Orion sequel will give us a lot more opportunity to see the characters we create in-game, although a full 3rd-person mode isn't something I want at all.
been playing cyberpunk since day 1 and i’ve loved it the first time it came out but yes it has improved so much
Being OP on this game doesn't take away the fun, honestly I love to eliminate them in all forms and ways, also, even though there are some missing stuff, the game is just awesome
I always loved the story but the dlc is something else, it enhanced this game in a lot of ways
You know what I like now, making talking to rogue the last option before finishing everything else. The rogue and aldecaldos storyline feel so much as a ending. I always leave being in the badlands as something last.
What this game needs now is the pistols from RoboCop and blade runner as well as the ability to install cybernetic arms at ripperdocs
If you play on PC, all these things are available as mods...and much more.
Played at launch on xbox one. Despite all the problems, i still thoroughly enjoyed it. Now, it's in the GOAT conversation. I still play it regularly.
I played game first time when it was new. I had old pc and lowest framerates and crashes every couple hours, yet still had great time because of story and fights. Looking forward to play Phantom Liberty!
6:07 this game was made for PC mostly , i mean its the best version of it on PC , it shines on all cylindres on PC with RT on and some mods ,
and also full native res. not upscalled like on consoles and medium to high settings for the consoles port.
I know im gonna be in the minority here, but I played this game on release on PS5, and I had a damn near flawless playthrough... I had such a blast with this game. Im rarely a single player game type of guy, but this game just had me hooked. Im considering getting this on my PC and running through it again. I wish there was a co-op.
So glad I waited until 2024 to play this game. My experience has been perfection so far. If they never had any of the release issues it would be considered an all time great, if it’s not already. If anyone gave up on this in 2020…come back and play. it’s incredible.
I've been playing this game since March 2022 [started just after Patch 1.5 was released] and it has _always_ been worth playing, IMO. The launch was rough, and the game has required a lot of polishing [and could still use some in a lot of places, in a minor way]...but it is now a masterpiece. You are correct in saying it doesn't need to change much for a successful sequel...a new story with a new cast of characters would work fine in the game in its current state, although much will inevitably change with the jump to UE5. Of course additions to the size and complexity of Night City is most desireable, and will almost certainly be included... I just hope I live to see the sequel.
My absolute favorite game and the only game on my PC and will be for years, started my 4th play through. The downfall off the game for people was the ambition, not a bad thing per say but it should have never been released on last gen consoles, I played day one and never had an issue or bug aside from those that plague all games,. Not bragging or being holier than thou, but I went broke building a top tier PC for this game in 2020 and again in 2023 for PL and I'm glad I did. Still to date and for a long while this will be the pinnacle of modern gaming, story, graphics, writing, etc.
Once I get the money eventually, it’s gonna be amazing
Its amazing now , one my favorite gaems of all time
Amazing video!! I played in 2020 one month after the release + covid in the world and I fell in love for it! On my ps4 it shut down every 30 minutes during the first updates but I still was stuck om the game and world. Then I finished it and decided to wait for the future... I was so excited when the DLC was announced and then when I got my ps5 last year, the first game in mind was Cyberpunk and wow! I also played the DLC and my difficulty was on very hard (which I highly recommend) I just say that again, one of the best RPG + DLCs ever made! I had a complete experience last year and I can't wait for the sequel!
Panam in the worst to romance,she is just using you for her quests in the badlands. Judy is the way to go. There’s at least 4 options
he also forgot male v can also romance kerry
@@FuraiFuru because he didn’t make proper research
@@julianc691 i think its a quick gameplay and immediately putting his experience out. We have the same realization after my 1st-2nd playthrough, i finished the game 13x now and it keeps on hooking me back in
@@julianc691 its also obv because of his gunfight footage too
Played this game day 1 on an Xbox one. I was apparently super lucky and had next to zero issues. Been one of my favorite games ever since. I now play it on pc and take full advantage of ray tracing and ultra graphics
I was more hyped about this game than anyone I knew before it came out. But when it released it was literally so bad I couldn't play it. Now it's one of my favorite games ever.
I played this game on release and had a fun time, definitely one of my favorite stories & RPG's
I’ve never played it. Never really thought to play it until now…
A complete 360* 😅 Good review, glad you touched on Phantom Liberty as that final update and DLC is bringing in a ton of new players.
I played thru on launch. The story, sound design and visual design were absolutely top notch and imo made the game worth it. The world building was also very good and managed to hook me in. Sure, I was incredibly disappointed with the final product but still thought it was decent enough to warrant the $60. Should be noted i played on a 2080 super and 3900x and I somehow ran into minimal bugs, so definitely a different story than anyone who played on a ps4 or xbox at the time. I'm on my 2nd playthru right now and the game just about lives up to the expectations I had for it when it came out. It's just so fun now with the re-worked perks, better driving and shooting, and more atmospheric thanks to the re-worked police system and random events that occur. Definitely recommend it.
Timed dialog, try to miss them like Dorsetti airhypo promp or say to the old woman to go inside. Nothing happens, on contrary game is playing itself
I have had 3 different playthroughs from the e different backgrounds. The first was a street kid. I did a loyd and proud playthrough (partly because I played this at launch skipping yhe side quests etc.). The second playthrough was a nomad. This was my stealth playthrough and it was incredible. The subversion tactics are ridiculous (Sandevistian made this a nightmare for enemies. I felt like quicksilver in that xmen movie). The last one i did the corpo walking nuke. And man I yell you what. I became death incarnate. I fully invested in the crafting system, the different guns, the quick hacks, the knowledge of previous playthroughs, throwing knives. Dawg ... This is my favorite game of *ALL TIME* second game is Mass Effect. This game allows you to impact the world in awesome ways. Its not the game they promised. But the fact that this fractale made it out and its this good is insane. Phantom Liberty was what this game could have been. I'm looking forward to Orion.
Random events similar to REd dead 2 would make this AMazing game even better. I heard they are planning on adding that to the next one.
I highly encourage you to jack in on PC. The Moding scene is incredible, choom!!
Just started my second playthrough. Only thing I don't like were the endings I got so far, they were pretty depressing. Also don't care too much for Dogtown as a location.
Most fun I’ve had in a long time and after my 1st play-through I installed +150 mods, coming from Skyrim modding it is sooo satisfying that modding Cyperpunk is drag and drop ez
i got a new PC last week and gave Cyberpunk 2077 another try and with 2.12 and Phantom Liberty and 2077 is loads of fun and the systems are way better implemented than the initial launch
Best game ever played, for the story and more
I love the game but on the ps5 when I’m driving around there is not a lot of pedestrian or street traffic but when I get out the car and walk around then they pop up and the world feels more immersive
When it dropped i was very disappointed it was my most anticipated game of all time i cane back to it when the dlc came out and it really was amazing. Now one of my favorite games ever glad the developers didn't abandon it.
I played it when it first released on an xbox one, with its bugs and glitches I still thought it was a 10 out of 10. Didnt experience the crashes back then but thats cause I had it installed on a fast external hard drive.
Started playing the game again on a high end pc that can push ultra everything with graphics maxed out and ray tracing overdrive. Game is beautiful and am having a blast. Im having fun just exploring and looking at stuff with these graphics. Night time when raining is best.
I want to try a hudless run, only hud option being my health bar. Feel like it would be so much more immersive
Love the gameplay, the setting, the characters, the story. Been some time since a game has dialed me in for hours per session... or made me want to put 60 hours into one playthrough doing nearly everything. Even pulled an all nighter before work cause phantom liberty was getting damn good lol
I'm glad I waited a couple years to try it. Even Witcher 3 had plenty of bugs, but the general lack of polish Cyberpunk suffered from early on was disappointing to hear about. Playing it now, feels comparable to how Witcher was for me.
Also cool being able to get equipment that breaks international law by existing, thanks to the dlc.
As a first time player tho, I did think the difficulty would stay on a more even curve. Could be cause I went with a (occasionally sneaky) netrunner though. At first it was fairly challenging tbf.
Then I grinded ncpd stuff for a while, took overclock and got OP as shit. Having 1300 armor and 2 free lives worth of hp to put into my "blood magic" *WITH* 100% crit for said "magic".... it's honestly stupid, guns and melee become effectively optional.
I played the game on the first day of the release on an custom Cyberpunk 2077 xbox one x,and did not have problems with the game.
Until the first patches dropped and the problems started to begin for me.
I like the release version more than the latest patch 2.12 version if i must be honest.
Cyber punk from story, side quest and gameplay is top tier. In my top 3 to 5 games ever. Cyberware is one coolest thing in any game.
I played it back in july 2022, patch 1.4 or 1.5 I think. Even back then I absolutely adored the game, a few decently large flaws but thought it was an 8 or 8.5/10. I wanna replay it again with all the new updates and Phantom Liberty.
Oh boy you're in for an almighty treat 😍 The 2.1 overhaul patch turned it into a completely different game. It was awesome before but now it absolutely rocks!
Patch 1.5 came out late February 2022...after that, most of the major problems were pretty much fixed up, although GPU drivers could still be a problems [NVidia usually took a few tries before they got them right]. A lot of people blamed CDPR and the game for things that were actually weaknesses in their PC systems and video settings.
Who else waited 7 or 8 years to play this game after hearing “personal responsibilities, personal responsibilities, personal responsibilities,” for the first time in that sick teaser trailer way back when?
Im hooked into this game. A masterpiece game. so immersive.
I played that game at launch and I never had any bugs. Only one side quest was buggy. Maybe people should realise that your x box do not like beer as much as you do. The expention was buggy when I played it at launch. But I m now on PS5 so not sure if that s someting to do with it.
I uninstalled this game in frustration a couple of weeks after release...it was nothing like what CDPR promised. And the last straw was being stuck on a bugged quest.
But by the time 2.0 came out, I had a new PC with an RTX 4080, and I wanted to give it a chance. Started a new game...was instantly hooked! Now I have 120 hours in the game, my character is a demigod, I've seen multiple endings even in phantom liberty...it is a legit masterpiece! I am so spoiled now playing other games, seeing these wooden quest giving NPC's
I played it on day one and dropped it day 3 due to all the bugs and broken quests. I’ve just bought it on sale for pc to see if it’ll have its redemption.
I think there's definitely a fair bit of random encounters leading into questlines in the game. *spoiler warning*
Most of 'em come through text, where people would text you to meet up and explain the mission either through text or in person (Ozob, Lizzy Wizzy, etc.) But sometimes you can come upon random ass quests too like the one time you come across a shady guy who ends up selling you a bd that knocks you out, or the vending machine(brendan i think?) seeming like a one off but turning into a string of missions.
The BD was was so funny. I woke up (naked maybe? lol) in that container and thought yeah that was pretty stupid of me 😂
A lot of people just go through playing the main story quests and complain about the game being 'too short'...
Cyberpunk is a great narrative game, but you can't really go on a massacre like in RDR2. That is what is missing for me.
Witcher three is probably my favorite game of all time and I was incredibly disappointed at the state of cyberpunk at launch. Once I wrap up at three of Baulders gate, I plan on diving into cyberpunk.
It’s a great game, not sure it’s a classic but it’s really fun and immersive.
For a whole 3 yrs everyone who is talking about “ many decisions “ you can make in the missions are playing whole food quest on the background, it’s used in the preview of the game and is one of quests that have consequences, the other missions not so much. Just flavoured text. Like Panam and the button press. Why give and option if game don’t care about it? There is no reason to replay this game, it’s same story with same outcome. It’s a movie not a game.
I’ve seen every ending aside from if you end up with Kerry as a man. I agree Panam is my ride or die lol. I was broken up how the game ended with her after you got the supposed cure from phantom Liberty. I was a day 1 player on Xbox one but have gone back to it on series S and my god the difference. This is easily one of the best rpg or games in general since mass effect 2. Great video 🤙🏼
Man I avoided this game so long because of the complexity skill tree etc but I bit the bullet in February this year after losing my job at Target and recently purchasing a PS5 via employee discount what a fucking experience 256 hrs later I still have a map full of gang hideouts a gig or 2 left and the Nocutane mission I never started because I been to busy stealing car from gangs , sleeping with Panham , destroying Dogtown more than it already is and shopping the day after a drunk night at the club lol Doom and GTA 3 had a miracle baby named Night City
Amazing Video, thank you for the Review of my fav Game
the one thing i didnt like was the only gay man romance option was a fucking weirdo ☹
Yeah, I never liked Kerry. A rich, successful man in his 80's shouldn't have his issues.
Had so much fun day 1, horrible they broke my build when they fixed it the first time.
just saved evelyn, I've already lost the remaining feelings I had for judy
They added random suicides where citizens jump off the top of buildings
Had it day 1.. even put in a 1 week vacation in 2020 to play it. Legit 1 hour into Day1 I brung it back for a refund. Fast forward to July 2024.. It is exceeding my expectations! Game is amazing! I'm like 2% complete with PhantomLiberty. It's a masterpiece!
I just picked up the game again recently and installed Phantom Liberty. I’ve reached a ‘“point of no return” at Embers meeting Hanako. My question is if I walk in and progress the main story does it then lock me out of the Phantom Liberty content and other potential endings? ie. should I do the Phantom Liberty content first? It seems weird to me that I’ve got to a point of no return really quickly but have a ton of other stuff to still do!
You're fine to do the point of no return. You're only locked out of the rest of the game until you complete the ending. There are many different ending to choose from. When you've completed an ending you will have the option to choose one more gig and you'll be taken back to just down the road from Embers. It doesn't affect Phantom Liberty. You can still complete the base game and then complete Phantom Liberty. The only difference is completing Phantom Liberty will give you a new alternative ending to the base game. Phantom Liberty also has a number of different endings. Both are a wild ride! Hope that helps.
This is my 2nd favorite game after rdr2
cyberpunk is amazing and has been for a year
I played it at launch on Xbox One X. The console ran it pretty well. I had a blast back then. Cop system still sucked back then. Cars drove like shit. Still had a blast.
It's easily my favorite game of all time . I finally have something that surpasses Ocarina of Time in my eyes.
The thought, "Is this better than OoT" had crossed my mind.
I had exactly the same thought... But that was after I played Majoras Mask!
Yes this game is definitely good i keep going back for more.😂😂
I’m truly jealous at those of y’all who rave about this game…I’ve had it in my Steam library for years now and started and stopped my playthrough numerous times because I really cannot get into the gameplay. The story seems interesting enough and I’m a sucker for visuals so that’s what makes me keep trying to get into it. I just got past the point of “dying” from Dex and now have Johnny in my head and stopped again. I think I may just need to completely restart a fresh new playthrough because I barely even know the mechanics and systems of the game since it’s changed so much. I loved the anime on Netflix, again I’m no hater, I just cannot get hooked like some of y’all
First ending i chose was susicide
the thing is this game toggle sprint has to be clicked while running not before so you gotta click the stick while moving it to run, that feels just plain wrong, i just want to ask what console player feel about that since you cant modify the control mapping like on pc
Not glossing over the sh*tshow that Cyberpunk was on release, but CDPR should be commended for the absolute clinic it gave on how to handle a catastrophic product release and rebound from it. Bethesda, BioWare, and a whole range of companies beyond gaming should study what they did and their strategy to re-engage their customers.
The sad part is that skill and vision was always there, but the suits started feeling bulletproof after Witcher 3 and pushed this out the door years too early. Hopefully lessons were learned in the board room first and foremost.
Small thing but male v can romance Kerry too similiar for Female v to River
One of the best games out there still.
Downloaded and finished Cyberpunk on the week in was released. PC version. 1060 GPU. Had 1 (one) crash) and no other bugs. Enjoyed it immensely. While the entire space was buzzing how terrible and buggy the game is, friends I personally know and I were just enjoying the game. Wild how different media coverage vs reality was.
It’s not just media coverage, it’s your experience vs that of others. I bought at launch on ps4, the blur was so bad it was unplayable. It’s like they knew the graphics were awful and nonfunctional at the time so they put a blur over it to cover it up. Returned it within 2 days.
I still have yet to play this game, maybe I should get it too
Pls do you might call out of work the next day its beyond incredible seriously
CDPR is now going the DEI path! WOKE writer Mary Kenney just join CDPR to work on Cyberpunka 2077! RIP CDPR!
Huge RIP. ESG/DEI is destroying devs everywhere but at least they made this game boss before the decline. I suppose I'll take it. Can't destroy the good old days.
It didn’t even make it to the potential of its original trailers.. lol
Just started last week and I’m enjoying it so far just not a fan of first person melee
I love this game and I still criticize it only because my first experience with the game was the launch ps4 version
great video. Thank you for that
This game just screams Deus Ex to me. Is there someone from square enix that works for CD project red now?
