I pre-ordered this game and got the "yellow screen of delay" twice in 2020. 3 years later , I can confidently say that this is my top game dethroning The Witcher 3. That itself is a huge statement. The Japanese word "Kintsugi" perfectly describes this games journey in terms of development and fixes. The combat overhaul, fixes and changes throughout the entire game has completely turned the game around. Don't get me wrong even with the bugs and glitches I still liked the game but now it's just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ amazing. I was blessed to be able to play the entirety of Cyberpunk 2077 including the DLC at 4K with RTX Path Tracing on.

PROS
-BEST looking game hands down no contest. RTX path tracing setting is just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ insane.
-High levels of immersion. Just driving/walking around seeing/hearing advertisements is breathtaking. (graphics/world design elements play a huge part and almost no loading screens at all)
-Thoughtful, believable and relatable characters that generally don't lack depth
-The voice acting/animations are lively and passionate for the most part (Female V > Male V ,both are great but fem V voice acting is way better)
-Stories that are very engaging, exciting, and thought provoking (Made me feel depressed a few times at the end of my play-throughs)
-Multiple endings that can vastly differ from one another based on your decisions and relationships. (They really had a nice way of summarising this in the end credits. The Expansion/DLC can tie greatly into the main story ending too which is cool)
-Great gun play, cool/uniquely designed weapons and body-augments that make you feel right in with the Cyberpunk world/theme. (I will always be a sucker for Mantis Blades)
-Amazing expansion/DLC that's pretty much what "Blood and Wine" is to the Witcher 3 if not better
-Music sounds amazing from cut scenes to radio stations. Very fitting to the theme/setting but can subjective to ones taste

CONS
-Very demanding graphical requirement if you want to truly experience max settings RTX on (100% worth IMO)
-First person perspective focused
-There are still bugs and some clunky-ness that can bring you out of immersion for a bit but far from what it was at launch.
-I love Keanu Reeves but voice acting for Johnny Silverhand can be hit or miss at times though mostly great. (I just don't see/hear him as a rocker rebel terrorist naturally,feels forced at times IMO)
-Driving is good but can be better still even after the updates
-Difficulty scaling feels off. Easy feels like story only mode. Normal feels like Easy. Hard feels like Normal. Very Hard feels like Hard. Doesn't ruin the fun just expectations.

After 3 years of ups and downs for Cyberpunk 2077 , I finally got a happy and non-depressive ending to this game.

Thanks for reading my review :)

Unique. Is the word if I had to choose one to describe this game. It's for the niche market and not for your everyday action junkie or "why must I do this, why must I that" kinda guy. This game takes a lot patience. The game/story throws you a lot of questions you don't have answers to even till the end of my 40+ hour journey.
You're basically uncovering the story in small bits through your deliveries through rough and challenging terrain filled with circumstances that will affect your journey. If I had to give a downside to this game, it would definitely be its boss design and combat. Its just your typical third person shooter bullet sponge kinda thing. If you're the sort to enjoy long walks or bus rides, I'm pretty sure you will like this game. It's very vibey and introverted. Just be prepared for a weird/confusing story. Play this after you're sick of the same ♥♥♥♥ formula or gameplay of other games. A tedious but rewarding journey 8/10.

This blew my expectations away with its amazing RTX graphics and simple but very creative storytelling capabilities even with not many characters or figures to interact with. I honestly bought this game thinking it would just be like a joyride but I instead ended up with a very satisfying and immersive set piece. Its direct and straight to the point but leaves discovery to back fill its lore which happens naturally. I often find myself just admiring the horizon filled with detailed shadowing or reflections. This game really justified the need for RTX( I've played games like Control, Metro Exodus etc.). It is done right and very well. There's just something about being in a beautifully designed "Space" setting with RTX that just works so well. You truly need to experience it yourself. The game revolves around (haha... see what i did there....) problem solving or diagnostics of this and that, nothing crazy or mind-numbing but the difficulty is just right. The story is surprisingly intriguing which was what I didn't expect at all. The only con I have with this game is maybe the lack of actual characters or players to interact with. All in all a really good space game. 8.5/10 with RTX enabled.

A strong meh. I love space themed stuff so being able to explore the interior/exterior of a space station was dope. This is a slow paced game focused on immersion and puzzle solving. Graphics were really great except for character design and animations as they sometimes can be jarring to look at but honestly not an issue as everything else looks great. Voice acting and overall design of the station was pretty good for a non AAA. The biggest downfall IMO are the bugs where characters/cameras could clip through walls (even in cutscenes) which will sometime break immersion .All in all, i would say buy it for cheap on sale as there's no replayablity . 7/10

I've played this game 4 times over already..... illegally (I was a sceptic as I didn't like single player RPGs) . Its so good I felt guilty not buying it............
Hands down my favourite RPG game of all time. The world, characters, details and everything. This game is truly a masterpiece. I've played games like RDR2, Skyrim ,Fable ,Fable 2 and many more but nothing beats the witcher truly. The witcher 3 gave me emotions that I've not felt in other games before . Once you've invested in its amazing story,it's a life changer. Even though years have passed ,the design and graphics of the world in the witcher 3 still stand strong up in the ranks of immersion and detail. The only down side to me is the combat that's kinda meh but definitely better than average. All in all, especially with the insanely low price of the GOTY( 2 DLCs that can span into an entire new game each, which somehow is able to tie in to the main story without you realising it before while playing the main story. I got ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥) version during sales, this game is a must grab. This is the game I can't stop talking about. 9.5/10

A really nice journey and exploration with some open world sandbox elements. Story is really good for how its set in an apocalypse. This game could've been a masterpiece when it comes to immersion not for its borderline mediocre voice acting (for english, heard that in russian its way better) .Played with RTX on and damn they utilized it well( at the cost of performance ofc) EXCEPT for what its most known for when it comes to ray tracing which is the use of reflections. Like literally not even an image through reflective surfaces just a glare is all u get. Problems aside, you really have a nice immersive game that u can actually lose track of reality when its done right. A solid 7.5/10 (8.5 if they had better voice acting/dialog timing or sync)

A really good remake of the old RE2. They kept a lot from the original series that made RE for what it is and improved on the things that the old game couldn't do at the time. It's like a thrill ride with a mix of some puzzle solving with pretty good graphics and performance. Felt like it was too short as there are 2 parts (or rather perspective) of basically the same story from Leon and Claire. A definite grab on sale. Also, Ada makes me feel things................................

This game man. THIS GAME.
You're expected to die many times but each time u die you learn something or even get a mental check on yourself done. You don't find yourself slamming tables (much) or throwing controllers but rather you keep trying to compose yourself for the next try. That right there's is the main seller to this game. You blame yourself and not the game. Combat feels really 3x good, you feel like and actual swordsman. Timing and composure is key in combat which makes things so satisfying after getting the final deathblow after a symphony of skills. Note: there are many ways to cheese the entire game but personally I would forgo that to feel the sense of accomplishment after learning from my mistakes. The only down side I can think of is that the game is capped at 60fps (a simple mod can undo this).
This game is worth DYING for. (668 times. GG)

This is my most played fps game.
I used to hate this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game since it was actually ♥♥♥♥ in the early days. Now ,its well refined and pretty balanced in terms of meta plays and strats. This game makes u think outside the box when engaging the enemy or you can just go guns blazing if u choose to do so. It's really dynamic. The only down side (which can also be a positive) is that theres a lot to learn like maps ,actual gameplay strats and even operator abilities since there are so many now but once you get the basics down,you're hooked.
GET THIS GAME.

If you're looking for a competitive experience look elsewhere.
If you're looking for a joyride with great immersion and gunplay with a mix of a bit of dynamic strategies(with some ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ lol ), Get this game.
The only true downside to this game is its optimization .
All in all ,considering the price and the general community players that think they're playing an rpg game
It's pretty worth!
