Lmao I have a vitamin D on my desk as well.

Do not overdose. 4000-6000 IU is the max that you should take per day, if your weight is around 80-100 Kg. The vitamin d toxicity starts over 750 nmol/L in plasma.

Well turns out that if you don't use fast travel you can get rewarded. Thanks to my gaping mouth at things a lot i switched my trashcan for this... I don't want to even know how much i would have to save to buy it as i saw tuned cars for 150k-200k already to buy.

i get like people not liking some parts but the extreme hate it's getting it just makes no sense

Seems like 50% of people in thread are not playing it, just joined fun to shitpost, other 10% are console niggers who are butthurt about not being able to play game like human. 20% of people in thread play game have various opinions some critical some being happy with game, last 20% are not in thread because they play game.

i have been playing with maxing crafting first and I have been playing with a legendary weapon since before starting act 2

Having legendary isn't an issue even if you have one from start. Because in order for it to stay relevant you need to upgrade it and legendary parts are not something you can get easily, moreover most of "legendary" power comes from mods and at low level you don't have almost any mods and don't have any money to buy anything worthwile.

There are also "iconic" weapons which are unique versions of guns like in FNV with their own properties above that of standard weapon.

Overall crafting in this game makes sense and crafting build will be outfitted with proper gear especially since you can find/buy recipes to craft mods. Which means you will be to ears in mods for armor weapons while me poor netrunner will have to spend 50k just to pop mod once into gear hoping it will last a lot.

Johny Silverhand is the most cringe character in videogames I've seen so far.

Nah he's cool. It takes a while though to "get" him. I am yet to finish story but overall he grew a lot on me. Always cynic, always nailing you down mostly because he failed in life, driven by his idea to really extreme ends.

Come to the conclusion that crafting is bad. Recycle your trash items to reroll another trash item. Only worth it if you get epic/legendary crafting blueprints but I've only found one looted blueprint in 12+ hours, and only seen basic versions in shops. Still in the first city zone though so maybe it gets better. Upgrading is nice to keep a good item relevant for a couple levels but quickly gets too expensive.

Higher rarity item are, well, rare so not sure how to get the mats to build anything without buying them. All the perks just make crafting more efficient, your only really benefit is a few perks that can provide a damage boost of 10% over an uncrafted item. Hardly worth maxing out a skill for.

The issue is unlocking the vendor that sells rare and epic components, once you have that it's all good, trouble is I can't find out which mission unlocks that.

Netrunners make good money tho.

You just get free cash from access points.

Also I haven't tried it but I legit think its better to delete a legendary and then make a new one which will autoscale to your level rather than upgrade it lol.

There are also reports of a "secret end-game mission" that is only available if you have acted friendly-ish towards Johnny throughout the game (it seems to keep a separate "Johnny Score"), but I haven't found this yet. A video of this should surface in the next few days/months if it indeed exists.

The official game guide should shed some light on this. Apparently, there are some specific dialogue checks that must be passed, and not always the most friendly answer is the best one. It's unclear if the epilogue after this ending will present a different outcome

so this game just made me install Deus Ex™ Mankind Divided™, It can't possibly as bad as this crapfest

Deus ex cuckhold devided is not that bad,it is fun to explore and find shit. Also you get to kill all those augmented rich faggots that whine about being mistreated,you also get the option to kill a shit ton of EU politicians . The game is filled with sjw shit,but you get enough freedom to take a shit on it. Still mediocre games tho.

[Mebrilia the Viera Queen]

Is so sad see some codexer defend this disaster of a game. And again this thread should be in general gaming as Cyberpunk is NOT an rpg.

The car is just the horse from Witcher 3, and just like that horse I barely use it because usually the fast travel and sprinting combo is just as fast.

I get that argument, but it doesn't work as an excuse, because of the incomparably greater amount of work that went into producing all those driveable cars. Then again, I don't see much to be excusing the game for, as the driving in itself is solid. Yes, you can't run over people as effectively as in GTA, but as has been said in numerous intervews, going crazy in the city is not the game's focus. Same applies for going on a killing spree while on foot.

, it is the same kind of shit of Witcher 3

From what I've seen so far Witcher 3 is the superior open world game. Most likely it will also be the superior interactive movie, thanks to the characters which are way more developed, if for nothing else, just because it's a third game in a series.

My advice is to play on normal and play as a stealth game

I seem to have hit that playstyle exactly and I can't really complain of the gameplay, but my expectations are not high, and wouldn't go comparing the stealth to Thief lol.

Well, if you're enjoying this shitty shooter, mediocre RPG mixed with a shallow open world but with some pretty visuals here and there and a cool setting, that's fine then. Everyone has their tastes.

Yes, well put. The million people on steam also have their taste, and they probably like the game to a varying degree.

Nothing he's getting old jaded and impossible to shock , yes there's dark themes in the game but it feels a bit tame still for me too.

To be honest I'm so far underwhelmed by the "dark themes" as presented in the game, but maybe it's too early to form impressions. Compared to Witcher 3 again, CP77 seems more edgy but not really developing on the dark sides of the city too much. I guess it could follow from the PnP setting which is both shallow and implausible, but I was with high hopes about the treatment CDPR would give it.

Having legendary isn't an issue even if you have one from start. Because in order for it to stay relevant you need to upgrade it and legendary parts are not something you can get easily, moreover most of "legendary" power comes from mods and at low level you don't have almost any mods and don't have any money to buy anything worthwile.

I'm not into this MMO shit, so can someone please explain - if I have one common hat that has more armor rating than an uncommon hat, what's the point in having the uncommon hat? IMO even from upgrades perspective the common hat would be better, because it would be cheaper to upgrade. What do I care that the other hat is "uncommon"?

[hivemind]

dystopias are a cringe anyhow

there is a reason why the "wow cool guns" meme happens and it's because dystopic themes are generally myopic and uninteresting unless executed tremendously well and you share the same core political values as the author

and they absolutely don't belong in video games

 

[fantadomat]

Ahh the game is only a next gen game because of poor optimization,not because of ground breaking visuals or gameplay.

 

[Agame]

The real grind isn't money but athletics, I've been running around everywhere and still at level 1

20 hours played

Gotta do more jivin' friendo.

 

[Justicar]

You can climb most buildings negroes level design is very open, you cant stack boxes like in deus ex but you can use your car as a platform...

 

[ADULF HITLOR FAN KLUB]

Hoo boy, I am not having fun bros. I'd much rather replay Deus Ex, Human Revolution, GTA 5 or Sleeping Dogs.

Lol they are all kneeling to Shazam.

 

[Reinhardt]

Let me translate from Disappointed SJW Speak to English- "There is not enough white cops murdering dindu nuffins good boyz like Saint George Floyd, there aren't enough redneck white men lynching trannies, there aren't enough sexual assaults on danger haired lesbo hamplanets by cis-gendered white male scum, there is no Donald Trump dictator in the plot"

These people need to be culled from society sooner rather than later because they WANT dystopia consciously or sub-consciously. They attract chaos as most mentally unbalanced people do.

Oh yeah as if the side missions involving child porn and human trafficking were not "dark". Nah, thats not dark for these people. They want to see evil fascists calling someone improper pronouns.

Nigger, that's the point - you don't need to wait for 2077 for child porn and evil big corporations. Biden sniffing kids on camera and his son fucking his underage nephew and big corpo censoring PRESIDENT OF FUCKING USA is already reality. You can't meet your family for christmas or attend your father's funeral, but looting and murdering is ok. And no one cares. Today is already much darker and more fucked than whatewer shit edgy poles tried to stuff into their game about dystopian future 60 years from now.

 

[orcinator]

cozy

Laying the bait a bit thicker than usual there.

 

[undecaf]

So is it safe to say now that RPG 2020 is Wasteland 3

Probably. Cyberpunk certainly ain’t.

 

[Serious_Business]

Played this shit a while, I don't know what the KKKonsensus is, but yeah, irritating quest compass and usual open world bullshit gameplay. Not any worst than the Witcher 3 in that regard. I liked some parts of the gameplay, the ones that include actually having character stats (something I thought was entirely banned in AAA game), and the ones that felt like an immersive sim (there are some). The fucking cutscenes and such are irritating as hell though. In my opinion, open world narrative games are utterly ridiculous in design ; mainstream has started to catch up with this problem with, say, Red Dead 2 for example : it's archaic and needs to die. It's useless to give us a big environment if nothing is going to be emergent about it, and if you're going to hold the player by the hand in critical moments in the name of the narrative. Creates too much narrative dissonance, and ultimately a kind of distortion between "emotionally engaging" and an actual engagement with the systems ; cinematics always do that, more or less. I do like the big city though, I think it's a very nightmarish environment. This is pretty much Blade Runner in video game form, and I really do enjoy this postmodern, disgusting dystopian shit, it speaks to my black heart. It's really going all out, it's wonderful. From what I heard some people really bled out 80h a week to give us this ; RIP, your sacrifice is recognized, I drink your lifeforce for my entertainment, very good.

 

[orcinator]

The game excels at its scripted sequences. That's not great from a gameplay perspective but it's still noteworthy.

What do they do that hasn't been done better in any Call of Duty?

 

[DalekFlay]

cyberpunk is better than deus ex in every way

Main difference between modern Deus Ex games and this is the open world aspect. Everything in Deus Ex 3 and 4 is specially designed and driven by narrative, while Cyberpunk has your typical open world checklist design with lots of generic areas and minimal context for most of it. Outside of that they're roughly similar experiences, at least from my stealth pistol guy perspective.

I will say however, as I said a dozen pages ago or so, that Cyberpunk does better making its generic phone call "quests" feel unique compared to many games of this type. Most of them send you to specific areas designed for that quest, and with some flavor text here and there. Still it's nothing compared to a more structured and linear game like Deus Ex 4.

So you can magically turn a gun into bullets with a press of a button, magically manufacture detailed clothing from scraps at the press of a button, but you cannot remove a mod from a clothing item because "reasons".

I actually played mankind divided while i downloaded cybercuck 2077. And if im being honest, i want to continue playing mankind divided more than this shit.

I started playing with corpo and its prologue was shit. Dialog meh, there was no any real choises. It took about 6 and half to 7 hours to get to the logo without rushing and having afk;in at multiple times while eating etc.
So far i havent seen any interesting characters or quests.

Attributes and stats are completely pointless. I have like 7 attribute points and 7 perks unused, because im just too lazy to put them. Shops has nothing to buy and because they are gatekeeped to street cred or what ever it is, it means moment they have new stuff, you already have better stuff.

Combat is dogshit, AI is complete shite, world is lifeless and feels static, sometimes civilians dissappear or change into different when looking at the somewhere else for a moment, and the game is filled with graphical bugs like trees in the distance rendering through cars or that flying turd in the beginning. Also this probably has the worst turret scenes in gaming history, because of the lackluster shooting and that the car is always driving so slow. And its incredible how bad the driving itself is.

Also hate that you have to walk half hour to get to the next waypoint while every ten minutes your latino buddy says few sentences..and then another 10 minutes of silent walking.

Game is also extremely poorly optimized for how the game looks. I always thought Mankind divided was poorly optimized, but it actually runs better than this and has better graphics. Ofcourse if you have gtx 3090 and use rt maxed, then this game looks better most of the time.
Visually this game also is weird, that there are some scenes or areas that looks really nice and good, but most of the time it looks just ok and sometimes it looks like shit.

Luckily i used keysite to buy this game, so hopefully no money is going to cd projekt red. Still feels bad for wasting almost 50€ for this garbage.
