    --------------------------------------------------------------------
    Cyberpunk 2077 is a 2020 action role-playing video game developed by CD Projekt Red and published by CD Projekt, based on video game designer Mike Pondsmith's game series. Set in a dystopian Cyberpunk universe, the player assumes the role of "V" (played by Gavin Drea/Cherami Leigh), a mercenary in the fictional Californian city known as "Night City", where they deal with the fallout from a heist gone wrong that results in an experimental cybernetic "bio-chip" containing an engram of the legendary rock star and terrorist Johnny Silverhand (played by Keanu Reeves) threatening to slowly overwrite V's mind; as the story progresses V and Johnny must work together to find a way to be separated and save V's life.
    The game's development began following the release of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Blood and Wine (2016). The game was developed by a team of around 500 people using the REDengine 4 game engine. CD Projekt launched a new division in Wrocław, Poland, and partnered with Digital Scapes, Nvidia, QLOC, and Jali Research to aid the production. Cyberpunk creator Mike Pondsmith was a consultant, and actor Keanu Reeves had a starring role. The original score was led by Marcin Przybyłowicz, and featured the contributions of several licensed artists. After years of anticipation, CD Projekt released Cyberpunk 2077 for PlayStation 4, Stadia, Windows, and Xbox One on 10 December 2020, followed by PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on 15 February 2022.
    Cyberpunk 2077 received praise from critics for its narrative, setting, and graphics. However, some of its gameplay elements received mixed responses while its themes and representation of transgender characters received some criticism. It was also widely criticized for bugs, particularly in the console versions which suffered from performance problems. Sony removed it from the PlayStation Store from December 2020 to June 2021 while CD Projekt rectified some of the problems. CD Projekt became subject to investigations and class-action lawsuits for their perceived attempts at downplaying the severity of the technical problems before release; these were ultimately cleared with a settlement of US$1.85 million. By September 2022, the game has sold more than 20 million copies. An expansion, Phantom Liberty, is set to release on 26 September 2023 on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. A sequel was announced.

      i love the new police system, that brings back really fucking fun memories of GTA police chases, i just hope the controller support when playing this game and firing is as snappy as it was in older GTA titles such as liberty city, that game was so fucking fun when dealing with the police in a fast car, going from driving forward to driving backward and shooting the police and then flipping back to driving forward only to do the same thing again and again, it was almost akin to the fast and furious movies while playing in game.
      this seems like it's going to function a fuck ton better though.

      @roenie I personally just didn't bother with the game. I've played and loved games with technical issues (Pokemon Violet comes to mind) but at least they were feature complete and not utterly busted out the wazoo with glitches, at least in my experience.
      Cyberpunk 2077 on the other hand was infested with gamebreaking stuff and updates never were a real solution to it. Now not only is it ACTUALLY good now... it even overhauls things that also add stuff from the anime series. So with that said, I'm glad I waited personally, now I feel comfortable enough to give this game a try once I finish my backlog n list of new games I wanna grab.

      It existed, but wasn't really functional. Biggest issue was, in addition to them having no loot/XP and no reason to kill them, they would spawn every 10-15 seconds no matter what you did, so there was really no end to it, commiting crime of any caliber was just playing the game "wrong". I could one shot the MAXTAC level police, but it didn't matter, they'd just keep coming.

Plus, recently got NVIDIA 3060 graphic card, so all the stars aligned and I am very happy so far. Only level 12 so getting update 2.0 won't be so weird. Will be interesting to see will I have the same bugs as I do every time I play - some sound would be gone for a minute after a cut scene, one or two times had characters being in T position for a minute in a cut scene or my partner in crime would forget I am doing stealth and starts charging at the enemies that don't even see me.

But I think it's a testament to how much why optimized this game that low can look as good as it does. I've dropped setting and raised them personally. The lighting makes a huge difference however the textures of the NPCs and the buildings and cars and streets in low are very good. Maybe it's just the art direction? But I'm glad CDPR could get the game to this level of fidelity even at lower settings.

      Alot of 'fixes' are just subjective changes, that might or might not be better, ala crafting, skill trees, cyber implants etc etc. It's great they fixed some of the really onerous issues, like cops. But it's still a typical open world rpg. An ocean wide, and an inch deep. It's fun, but I'll probably always wait on a CDPR game from here on out.

    Great re-review.
    One of my favorite aspects of Cyberpunk since launch was always the vehicles - you can tell the entire vehicle team from the artists, to the modelers to the sound designers all put their utmost love and care into each and every vehicle. Now with the 'final' version, each car feels and sounds *so* much better. The driving model is still just slightly strange, but most weirdness can be tuned out using the Steering Sens slider and deadzone sliders.

  • @janablom823

    The game feels practically the same or worse than when i played the Edgerunners update.
    Police chases are both annoying, and laughably easy to escape. The only way to deal with them is to not fight them at all, as they will infinitely reappear faster than you can kill them.
    Cyberware now has to be unlocked by finding them randomly generated in select lockers around the world, which means after 20 hours of searching i still can't get the Sandevistan i want.
    A large critique i had of the Edgerunners update was how squishy the player character was. It has gone way too far in the other direction. Getting 100% mitigation chance is completely trivial, and will make you essentially immortal combined with how plentiful armor is, and how quickly health items recharge. The only threatening enemies continue to be the ones that knock you down and lock you in an 8 second long cutscene.
    Using your phone in an elevator will still consistently clip you through it and soft lock you.
    Cars will blink in and out of existence in a split second while driving, making me fell like I'm getting cyber psychosis IRL.
    Enemies will magically zero in on your location after spotting a dead body despite never having seen you.
    Quick melee with a handgun will permanently stun lock almost any enemy in the game, including most bosses.
    Silverhand will show up in certain gigs and talk to you as if you're buddies even if you never even started the main quest after the heist.
    NPCs will clip through cars to find cover, companion drivers are on a scripted route and will mercilessly tear through anything in their path without impediment, yet the routes are still so poorly made they often drive through solid terrain.
    Some perks will inexplicably break others completely, and nothing in the entire intelligence tree with worth engaging with.
    Using a ripperdoc and skipping the wakeup cutscene often messes up something with the games graphics and causes everything to be shrouded in a thick ugly orange fog Like I'm playing fallout and the nukes just dropped.
    Every new feature or improvement of this version has been bundled with some new issue i didn't have previously. This game is still mediocre at best.

    Since patch 1.6 we have had clothing transmog with the outfit panel. Any clothing you loot or buy is auto added to your wardrobe library so your clothing could look like anything. I guess not everyone realized that change because I have heard that complaint about clothing armor a few times. The transmog was a nice QOL fix but moving armor to Cyberware we'll see how it plays out I guess. The lighting rework looks great.

    "It's finally the game we all hoped it would be." Is it? The most disappointing thing about Cyberpunk 2077 to me was the failure to meaningfully allow, support and react to the player's roleplay with dialogue choices, branching quests and alternative solutions that reward different character builds. The Pickup is a great example of a quest with lots of different outcomes and little consequences depending on the player's choices. Sad that many later quests don't live up to it. It's supposed to be a roleplaying game but often can feel like merely a shooter with rpg elements rather than being about the player's story. Doing a bunch of side jobs for the police was not what I imagined spending a lot of time on in my cyber*punk* fantasy of rising from a street rat to a legend.

Essentially I intentionally played a over glorified demo after realising quite quickly how bad everything was. Haven't touched it since. Looking forward to finally being able to play a game I anticipated more than any other in close to the state I had hoped it would have been from the start. It's the only game I ever pre-ordered off of the back of The Witcher 3 being my favourite game and what I would consider the best game of all time and never will I pre-order a game ever again.

But you really just gotta use your eyes to see that Cyberpunk 2077 is not even graphically the best looking game right now. The most complex lighting system maybe. But visually, others like Red Dead 2 or Horizon Forbidden West still look better in many ways.

      ​@@METALLIFY16 Delusional how? Are you blind or haven't you played that many games? This isn't hard to see. Nvidia partnered with CDPR to sell cards. They market Path Tracing and DLSS so hard while fully knowing the only cards that can even run PT well enough are 4080s and 4090s.
      This is what you call "Feature creep". They're adding excessive features so quickly with poor optimization, tanking performances and manipulate people that their 3000 series cards are already outdated and redundant.
      Cyberpunk2077 right now have the Nvidia's most complex lighting system with Path Tracing. But the game uses it just for the sake of using it rather than artistically. When you combine path tracing with the average visual fidelity of Cyberpunk, such as the poor low res textures and shading, low poly objects, poor post processing effects, poor physics and simulation - Then there's a reason why Cyberpunk 2077 still looks like a fake theme park full of toys.
      You just gotta watch Cyberpunk 2077 side by side with other games. Look at games like Horizon, God of War, Last of Us 2, Watch Dogs Legion, SpiderMan, Dead Space Remake, Demon Souls remake etc. These games rivals if not better looking than Cyberpunk in so many aspects. Red Dead 2 have weather and simulation systems like clouds. rain, storm, snow, dirt and mud that far outclass Cyberpunk.
      Heck you can go watch Assassin Creed Unity from 2014 and put it side by side with Cyberpunk, you'll see AC Unity still rivals it easily.
      If you can't see any of this, your eyes are clearly broken.

      @@ruok3351 I think it comes down to preference but technically speaking RDR2 is a beautiful game because of the game world design feels so organic and natural and asset placement added the advantage of amazing physics and interactivity but you should watch digital foundry break it down technically because the engine they have used is old and the game though looks better than 90% of the games today. The strength of RDR2 is in the details and other games cannot match RDR2 in details because 2000 devs worked on the game. Visually it shows it's age though. RDR2 is also very heavily dependent on it's lighting. Did you observe how awful the game looks early morning when there is no sun or moon light?

    Loving this update.
    For anyone wondering what makes it so good, enemies are no longer fixed at a level, they level with you. So you can go anywhere you want at any time if you want a fight, the enemies will not be above or below your current level. There is now a broader range of enemies in terms of how they fight (get ready to be spammed with grenades and miss a lot of shots due to their cyberware) and the challenge they present. Even a trio of gang mobs can kill you if you aren't careful in how you fight them (at least on the highest difficultly).
    Also, you level much faster at the start of the game, during the 1st Act, so you can get your build up and running that much quicker, rather than having to slog your way through half of the game to feel like you have your build.
    Can't add much to the majority of builds, playing as a Net Runner at the moment, but I am loving the changes to quickhacks. You can queue them, which we all know at this point, but queuing them in a specific order can do fun things. For example, hitting them Contagion at Epic level, allows you to use overheat to blow the poison up, making them explode. Or using Cyber Malfunction three times, the first disables their cyberware for 10 secs, the second destroys their cyberware permanently, and the third makes their cyberware electrocute them (electrical damage). So in other words, you can do combos.
    All in all, a great update, sorely needed, as the previous version of the game was lame in terms of getting your build started, enemies being too weak once you maxed out, and a general lack of fun due to being overpowered. Now, the combat is far more engaging. Which I like.
