(Nth Review #23) It’s been over a decade since CD Projekt Red teased the arrival of Cyberpunk 2077. After a disastrous launch, the game now seems to have its cybernetic ducks in a row with years of patches and a huge expansion: Phantom Liberty… or does it? Nick checks it out!

I can certainly appreciate the work that went into the game, and even having Keanu Reeves around, but once again, I'm not big on the cyberpunk genre. I appreciate you playing this so I don't have to.
Nicely done, my friend!
Nicely done! You got the GLADoS car, differences in combat, oddities about people walking aimlessly, and so much more. Even my oldest loved watching this! We agreed your focus on specifics makes it pop. Loved the look of the game, loved the world, loved the ideas, just couldn't find anything different on a second playthrough. Wish there were more skill check options so it wasn't always "go kill everyone" missions. Maybe in the future? I'm sure Kirby would agree!
Can we all just agree that the 1.0 version of this game was hilarious with all the bugs??🤣🤣🤣
i saw the title and said "me too, lol"
Good thing that they worked on the unfinished game and finally finished it. I have no problem with leaving the game for even a year or two.
You had a LOT of glitches by the sound of it. You listed more following the holographic fish glitch than I've experienced in 80+ hours of my latest playthrough! God's dice, man.
Frustratingly, one of my only major glitches took place while I was showing a friend how glitch-free the 2.x version is >_<
I love this game. I had fun on release even though it was a objectively broken mess. I just love genre. Most of the cyberpunk games we got previously were the deus ex style. I like this dirty sordid blade runner style more.
Holy heck it's here.
Hot take, the game as it is now is not hugely different to what it was at launch. There are polish elements (many of which with minor game play impact like the police not teleporting in as obviously as they used to) and better performance on consoles and low end PCs.
The parts that were good were always good, the parts that were bad are mostly still bad or at best mediocre.
It deserved a lot of criticism at launch and should NEVER have released on the xbone of ps4, that was pure greed. But the major glitches were resolved very soon after launch. It wasn't a masterpiece, but it wasn't a watershed moment of bad game release.
Bro you dated Panam and didn’t ride off into the sunset with the Caldos?????????
I don’t think I’ll ever get around to playing this game after my ps4 purchase and return so I’m excited to hear about your take of the game
Was waiting for this. I played the game when it launched. I haven't played it since. So yes. Just like Fallout 76. If it didn't work from the get go. I won't play it two years later.
I honestly adore this game, I recently played all the way through it all, did every mission including all the smaller ones.
And the story plus characters story lines are just amazing.
The only games that will come close to Cyberpunk is The Last Of Us part 1 & 2.
It's emotional, heartwarming at most times and thrilling exciting, plus even scary at certain points.
This is what full emmersion is supposed to be and what good games with stories can do.
Al and all a briliant game.
1:32:09 ?? Tf? 😂 You can slide pretty easily.
This game seems to have meant a lot to you, the same way it meant a lot to me. I have been following this game since 2016 or 2017, and I find this franchise important, and have a deep personal connection.
Cyberpunk 2077 was pitched as a highly professional, state-of-the-art, almost AAAA tier game. However, what they delivered was far less than that. What was there on launch wasn't terrible, but it wasn't what it was supposed to be. Even if you had a top of the line PC. On base consoles, the HDD and cpu limit even core functionality. I thought for sure it was going to be a next-gen only title, even public development roadmaps hinted at such.
Even now, the game isn't perfect, but that doesn't mean it isn't special. It's presented in a much more professional light, but it is forever scarred by poor management.
Had an experience similar to yours. For the first time in my life I preordered a game (pls no comment on that) because I had jumped on the hype train as many others had, plus cyberpunk is my favorite genre. On release I realized my rig could barely run it on 1080p (low, 30fps). Created a character and jumped into the game, which left me dissapointed and stopped playing the next day. However, I didn't require a refund as most people did because I had hopes a house like CDPR woud eventually fix things.
And it did. Started playing in late 2022, completed it with 3 different playstyle characters and had a blast with the story. Also had a new rig which could run the game properly. It didn't feel like a waste of money anymore AND it was bug-free, from my perspective at least.
Was it Deus Ex worthy? No, but right now it's pretty close and that's a win for me. Still haven't played since 2.0 came out though.
The review was enjoyable and not tiring despite its length, just had to grab a beer after the first 20 mins 🙂
