Finished it first time on patch 1.63 with RT enabled just this week. Theres some weirdly inconsistent dialogue throughout the main story and many cosmetic bugs as a whole its alright at best. Pirate and play it until you finish Act 1 and then decide.
Oh and the scripted car sequences are so bad its hilarious how the cars just turn on adime and accelerate/brake instantly and npc vehicles are half sunkend under terrain.
Sex exists in the basegame, albeit awkward and the pacing being way too fast.
There is a mod that allows you more control over sex scenes and lets you choose from a list of npcs to frick. Its called hotscenes or something. It's not great but it's something.
There is also AMM and PMU, sex animations are being added to both but it's mostly poses for now and not really decent sex.
Bottom line is cyberpunk is the first and last game on the engine, bethshit overused gamebryo adnauseum and it took YEARS to get sex mods for the early games like oblivion and fallout 3.
Sex and romances in games are nothing but coomerbaits. The contribute nothing to the gameplay nor plot. I hate it. Its like a 3 minute long kissing scene in a 90 minute action b movie. Out in 3 of these and Ouve saved yourself nearly 10 minutes of creative product.
It never will be. The skill trees are terrible. The items remind me of borderlands but a shitty version. The story is meh. The gameplay is the most basic shooter stuff ever. CDPR was always pretty bad at making good gameplay, but for some reason this one was exceptionally bad.
If your a graphics/environment gamer, you might like it. But if you care at all about game design/gameplay, stay far away.
If you can enjoy it as a borderlands clone in a cyberpunk setting, then yes it's a game with decent and entertaining gameplay.
The problem lies with the marketing. It was touted as a fully open-ended rpg with multiple storypaths and classes and jobs. We were lied to. The game has one single storypath, even less choice than fallout 4.
You can add all sorts of quality of life shit but you can't rewrite Johnny and the chip out of the game. Therefore it will always be a shit rpg.
I am able to enjoy it for what it is but im disappointed...
I enjoy it so far but I'm stuck at the story mission so I just do side quests. My main mission is infiltrating the Arasaka building or something, where you have to cross a parking lot inside a building but no matter what approach I get pummeled by infinitely respawning baddies. Other than that I like most characters and gameplay and the freedom. I never liked Keanu and Johnny is just an over the top butthole so I don't really care about him.
I tried that but there are snipers that instantly take like 75% of my health. I got on the building of like the entrance to hide and as soon as I pop my head up it's headshot season for them.
also why does this Japanese dude tell you you can either go sneaking or full blast when as soon as you even come near the building you are instantly spotted and all hell breaks loose?
I don't remember the name of the mission but that Japanese dude with the implants ask you to enter this building which is like a compound with a large open area around it with guards and as soon as you enter the parking lot you get spotted, or at least I am even when I try to sneak.
The quest line named "Automatic love" is one of the best things i've ever experienced. The Maelstrom bar (aka Totentanz) is the best depiction of a raid party i've ever seen in a video game. The atmosphere is really good. BUT if you're a gay who only loves D&D look a like games then avoid this.
I tried watching it last week after I finished the game and I tapped out after 4 episodes.
The pacing was weird and it had a lot of shounen tendencies that personally bug me. Everyone I know who like it also love stuff like Naruto, MHA, and DBZ, shows I don't like.
>how is Edgerunners
It's pretty fun. Nothing groundbreaking and a little awkward at times, but it's nice. >Can you watch it before completing the game storyline or will you get spoiled?
It's completely unrelated
I thought the story was interesting enough to justify a playthrough. Especially since I bought it for like 10$ after it had been patched to a stable degree
No, it's mediocre in terms of gameplay. It's got level-scaled loot like we're playing Diablo with Guns (or Borderlands if it was fun). Protocol Breach is boring. Driving isn't used outside of rally racing for a troony. You have to condition yourself into playing the game until it gets good 40 hours in, which is actually just letting you become overpowered in a way you like. For me, I'm running around as a 20 INT super-quickhacker equipped with legendary cyberpsychosis and short circuit. It's basically a free "I win" button while I grind the other perk decks.
Story wise it's a different beast. You either emphasize with Ganker dealing with being a moron with his or her ambitions or you don't. I'm pretty sure anyone who's actually played the game never emphasizes with Ganker whenever the Relic-induced cyber-brain cancer symptoms show up. You either like or dislike Keanu Reeves as Johnny Silverhand. It's because he can come off as boring through his acting. But to me he's a raving mad man and a burnout dickhead who's coming around to the fact that he left no real legacy behind while living in Cyber New Los Angeles.
I care about the plotlines that are really involve Ganker, have small consequences, or are just slice of life segments. Like Ballad of Buck Ravers or Life During Wartime (getting Anders Hellman).
The montage after you complete your Lifepath skit should've been actual gameplay or a tutorial for each part of the game.
As a story/moviegame, RDR2 blows it out of the water.
Any other video game with fun gameplay and cyberpunk aesthetics mogs the shit out of it. The System Shock remake is more cyberpunk and fun than 2077.
At this point it has to just be a troll. Work on the game for multiple more years and ask everyone to buy it again once it's "fixed" with DLC
just wait for the dlc next month, it’s adding in more features they promised for launch
It is. I'm on my third playthrough.
They could fix every single bug plaguing it both past and present and it still wouldn't be good.
I'm waiting for the 2.0 patch to replay it. Apparently they're remaking the skill tree and adding other gameplay stuff
It's ok, it's kind of boring.
The DLC is overhauling all sorts of stuff that will be the final verdict

it was always good Black person
worse than unmodded bethesda
>looks up loverslab
>no mod tools for sex mods
>misses half the entire point of a cyberpunk setting

No, and the dlc isnt going to fix anything. That said the world is ok and the music is ok. Everything about this game is ok to lame.
It never will be. The skill trees are terrible. The items remind me of borderlands but a shitty version. The story is meh. The gameplay is the most basic shooter stuff ever. CDPR was always pretty bad at making good gameplay, but for some reason this one was exceptionally bad.

No.
Johnny did nothing wrong.
I played it shortly after release on PC and it was a great game even then. don't know what all the fuss was about.
Is it a good game?
Yes.
Is it what was promised?
No.

You're not supposed to fight them..get in the delamain car. Just bum rush it to the door and get in the car.

Just wait until Phantom Liberty.
how is Edgerunners and can you watch it before completing the game storyline or will you get spoiled?
It's set before the game
I tried watching it last week after I finished the game and I tapped out after 4 episodes.
The pacing was weird and it had a lot of shounen tendencies that personally bug me. Everyone I know who like it also love stuff like Naruto, MHA, and DBZ, shows I don't like.

Don't get invested in it, it's a promotional anime that was shortlived and all of the featured characters don't appear in the main game.
well I kinda gotta get invested, the main character literally has my name.
You're going to be disappointed at the ending
