The new norm. At least, it should be. WAIT at least a year after launch to get a game. You've likely avoid all the bugs, get it cheaper, and get all the DLC in one bundle price LESS then it would have been at launch. We all start doing this, and maybe they'll start to get the message.
Oh, these ps players, just holding us back.. I hope big companies will stop developing their flag ship games for consoles. I played on day one on PC and had a blast! And people who expect to run such game on their grandma's toaster, well, no comment there xD
“Game has redeemed itself”—it’s bizarre seeing this similar sentiment from a lot of the reviewers.
How is a patch nearly 3 years after release considered a redeeming quality? Patch added changes that should’ve been part of the initial release. Plus, the comment from CDPR Vice President tells me they haven’t learned shit from this whole fiasco.
I don’t see this patch as anything more than an attempt to sell more copies of the DLC, using this “redemption” arc that reviewers are helping push along. It’s terrible, really.
Watched this because I'm interested in getting it. The general feel I get from everything I see about it is that this is what it would look like if the original Deus Ex were made today.
Hard disagree with all the reviewers who mention Cyberpunk was a crap game at launch.
I feel like I'm from an alternate universe. My experience with early 2077 was mind-blowing. Besides a few hiccups my first playthrough was amazing. I must have had good luck with hardware at the time.
I completed one playthrough played on release, really enjoyed it for what it was not what it was marketed as. So I'm very keen to try out this 2.0 of it
tech weapon skills and whole crafting system are garbage now. allong with all changes to health managment. cyberwear improvements are cool though. money is easy. had 20k in first 30 mins after the intro from ncpd
So I picked this up for the PS4 just a few weeks ago and then spent 3hrs downloading the updates. I still hit a bug early in the game where your pointer disappeared when hovering over the lift controls (fixed by reloading). But it's a beautiful game and for most casual gamers it runs fine . Early on I am spending more time playing the menu than the game – the amount of on screen info is overwhelming at first and often disappears before I have chance to digest what it's saying. It is worth going off the beaten track to look for loot, but so much stuff I am not sure what it is for and how to use it. I do really admire the substantial amount of work thats gone into making this game, and although it often seems like a magpie that has simply recycled the best bits of other games – I really feel like I am playing an interactive blade runner 2049.
Ever since the 2.0 update have released my Xbox series X just keeps on crashing and it's an Xbox i bought new last year nothing wrong with it and it's really silent and not over heating and no frame drops im just confused because the game has really smooth game play but when you use melee combat while slowing time it just crashes it happened like 5 time's within 15 minutes im definitely not buying the dlc now and 3 years and still not optimized right
A reminder that this channel gives a garbage game like Starfield a 10/10 score. That's how you know to ignore this video and subscribe to an actual good channel with good journalistic integrity like IGN or PC Gamer.
I think it WOULDVE been an all time great had it released in the state it is now, aka the state it should’ve released. The atmosphere setting, immersion, and stories are some of the best and most engaging/effective I’ve ever seen in a game. The graphical quality and detail is unbelievable. The sheer fact I can walk into an elevator and read the entire newspaper posted on the wall is insane. The combat is a little clunky but still feels very nice. The enemies are properly challenging and RESPONSIVE now, ex: sandy users will now counter sandy v by actually using their own. I do wish there was a ng plus mode. It does an amazing job capturing the FEELING of a cyberpunk world in all aspects. But the problem is that it wasn’t always like that. As said in the video it’s technical issues and original design/gameplay choices were kinda horrible. And even though it was reworked, it still leaves hints of its impact on the game.
Brand new ps5 and an hour later the car wont move. I swear, now its frozen at the start screen. This shit is still buggy cause Jackie carrying a hand gun in the hotel lobby
I'm going to be honest. I think that the writing quality of base Cyberpunk 2077 is the same as Witcher III. I think people say it's not as good due to recency bias. The fact that Geralt can screw around and kill monsters while the closest thing to a daughter is in danger is about as stupid as V screwing around with a brain ghost of a rockstar slowly killing them.
I'm on PS5 and there's a few problems from serious pop-in and I'm talking PS4 levels of pop-in sometimes.
I really like the new perk system it's versatile the police system is awesome too don't mess with Maxtac lol and when the police chase you there out for blood it's quite comical
however I felt the games economy is really broken since selling weapons even at level 1 you'd sell for 600 a pop I wasn't even out of Watson "the tutorial" part and at level 8 had 150,000
It's wild to see the reaction to 2.0 …. I have 947 hours in CYBERPUNK (2021-2023) and the 2.0 patch has been a living nightmare on PC. Buggy, graphical glitches…. and the gameplay fights / skill trees are terrible to me. But… a lot of people like the changes.. Strange
i do hope down the road they try making another cyberpunk game like now cyberpunk is a pretty great game, and taking away what they learned from this one they could probably do waaay better with another chance at a new title

Well guess time for me to sell my ps4 pro and buy a pS5 💀

I do legitimately think this game is an All-Time Great in what it was going for, just not what some people wanted from it.
Jeez every review bangs on about the past for half of the review. Get over it, it’s been a 10/10 game for ages
Is the PS4 version also good tho
Sucks to hear so many people held off because they couldn’t form their own opinion :/
Playing Starfield
.. goes to talk to npc they just have there back to me
.. how rude
..2.0 drops
..let’s go play
Is the 2.0 update out for Xbox One and PS4 or is it only for next-gen consoles and PC
This game was already easily an 8 6 months after the ridiculous launch.
With this update it's one of the best games you can play. 9 at the very least.
GET RID OF ENEMY HEALTH BARS. The immersion would be unmatched.

got tired of destiny 2 need something new just downloaded the game and the dlc for 60 usd hoping this game is good
tech weapon skills and whole crafting system are garbage now. allong with all changes to health managment.
cyberwear improvements are cool though. money is easy. had 20k in first 30 mins after the intro from ncpd
good game
It doesn't fix the story. The story is so bad.
It is an all time great, you just a hater

Payed review.
This games has some of the best graphics I've seen in a game
"unequivocally and undeniably a legitimately good game" chill

3 years after launch – Ok it's done
how is everyone pretending this game isn't crashing constantly?
It is an all-time great game 😅

Imagine if it launched like this? The reviews and praise and awards would be off the charts

I preferred the 1.63 version graphically.
Review the series s port it's horribile

Can’t wait to dive back in after I’m done with Starfield. Loved it on launch, will be fun to play this new version.
Can I have fully gold limbs or fullbody neon tattoos like the NPCs yet?
I dont like what they did to crafting and grenades
The original wasn't nearly as bad as you're saying. People seriously overreacted about it.
i do hope down the road they try making another cyberpunk game
like now cyberpunk is a pretty great game, and taking away what they learned from this one they could probably do waaay better with another chance at a new title
2.0 completely broke the game worse than it was at launch.
