NPCs:
RDR2 is honestly years ahead of the AI in this game. No conversations with NPCs? NPCs don't even do anything aside walk around. They don't really do random tasks or have conversations with each other. If you block roads NPC drivers just park their cars and do nothing. Get into a gunfight? Every NPC just stops, kneels down and puts their hands on their head. There's all this motion and life yet the entire city is lifeless. I can't believe CDPR even would release it in this state. Like these NPCs are brainless background noise wtf.

AI:
It's horrible. Idk what to say. I can either wait in a doorway and kill them with a sword as they walk through or they just hide unmoving behind a piece of cover and let me throw grenades. Idk what to even say about it. The AI is horrible and I'm on hardest setting which is honestly very easy

GRAPHICS:
Not next gen or groundbreaking unless you are running an absolutely insane setup that plays 4k with ray tracing and every setting on ultra. That being said I find the art style and overall quality to be quite good.

PERFORMANCE:
Horrible. DLSS is basically required for steady frames so I hope you all know how to add Sharpening filters. Needed more time in the oven to optimize. I'm running a Ryzen 3700x, RTX 2070 and 16 Gb of G.Skill TridentZ. 60 FPS on high/medium with DLSS set to quality and ray tracing off.

COMBAT:
predictable gameplay loop. Satisfying but again, nothing groundbreaking here. If you've played any other shooter with basic stealth elements you have already played this games combat system.

CONTENT:
There are a TON of side missions and so far all of them have been good. This is a huge plus for the game.

MISC
You CAN NOT CHANGE YOUR APPEARANCE AT ALL AFTER THE INITIAL CREATOR. This just felt strange considering I can augment my whole body but can't get a haircut.

CONCLUSION
If you want the best experience on this, wait. It needs patches and I honestly think it's missing some content that was expected. For a game hyped up so much and I'm development for so long, I'm disappointed terribly.

Honest rating 7/10. Still good, but not what we were expecting.

UPDATE
Thanks for the awards and discussion here. I appreciate people taking the time to read this.

I think the game has HUGE potential but truly wasn't ready for release. I gave it a 7/10 because it's still a good game, but the thumbs down is simply because as I stated in the review, it needs patched. YOU ARE NOT BUYING A FINISHED GAME. The bugs alone will make that very apparent.

Its fun and if you wanna jump in then go ahead, i'm just reviewing it at release and this review is subject to change, but there are some very serious problems in its current state.

As far as comparing it to RDR2, that game felt very alive, Cyberpunk only *looks* alive. It's a fair standard to compare the two.

EDIT: GAME GOOD NOW
