CD Projekt's Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.0 + Phantom Liberty Expansion Thread

So I take it this game is not worth the $30 sale price I see on GoG?

Eh, I think it is. I bought it at release and had a good time with it and played it for a solid 96 hours before putting it down. I was going to get back to it once it was patched up... probably still will. Anyway, I'd say $30 is a steal and mostly due to how much negative press the game got.

This is the one rare case that I can think of that it was actually worth it to purchase the game at full price when it first got released as opposed to waiting until it goes on sale and has been "patched up" because the "patched up" version of the game isn't even worth the sale price.

Well, it is, but still.

 

[vonAchdorf]

Or save $10 and get it for $20 with the free voucher on the Epic Game Store. You should be able to add it on GoG too if it's anything like with their Witcher games.

I'd say it's worth it. I've been playing it for the last few days, current playtime is 32h. Compared to my experience on release, it runs much better, no gamebreaking bugs so far (but many smaller, funny ones). Some of the side quests are very interesting, there's enough to warrant the price tbh. I don't think waiting will bring anything substantial, because the systems that are missing from the game will likely never be added. This is the kind of game you play for the atmosphere, story, and characters. The gameplay is a mix of mediocre driving and looter shooter style combat where you're showered with guns of different rarities and headshots are not kills, with some light RPG elements sprinkled here and there. And there's a detective style minigame. And some trannies too. Hope it helps you make a decision.

EDIT: Forgot to mention that there is almost no C&C whatsoever. The only thing dialogue choices change are the next line of dialogue. You still end up with the same outcome no matter what shit you say. Your choice of background revolves around useless quips during dialogues.

You mean like Minecraft and Roblox? Which are two of the most successfull game franchises ever!

Neverwinter Nights and its Toolset were too ahead of their time.

So I take it this game is not worth the $30 sale price I see on GoG?

I'd say it is, middling price for a middling product, but it depends on what you want for your thirty bucks. It's not a terrible game, just terribly disappointing - good artistry, mediocre action, bad RPG.

I guess Hitler was right about dem poles. Never trust em. My personal life has certainly improved, since I started giving polaks a wid berth. I hope Russia annexes Pooland soon.

Yeah, Poles are Jews of the Slavs. Perpetual victim complex, not one single good RPG from them despite them having biggest gaming industry in Eastern Europe, best standard of living from all Slavs and there being 50m of them. They are champions of moaning thou

Further more, name me one good game, regardless of genre, made in Poland in last 5 years. I'm genuinly interested. Biggest frauds, biggest lovers of globohomo among Slavs, and in deep deep deeeeeep love with American culture. Their nationalism is 99% hatred towards Russia and butthurt towards Western Europe. Disappointed in Polska!

Said by ottoman inbred rape baby YOU ARE NOT EVEN A SLAV SHITSKIN YOU HAVE MORE IN COMMON WITH TURKS WHO RULED OVER YOUR SHITHOLE FOR 400 YEARS.

You can keep sucking russian dick but that wont make you white.

How does Biden limp, ancient dick tastes like? Like best ice-cream you ever had. You always get your face covered with Biden's ice-cream. We all know you look in RL like that goblin avatar of yours. Goblin-General of Polish Cuck Army, professional British ass cleaners and American dick polishers. MIGHTY POLSKA :D

What Poles gave us? AIDS

Witcher 3, Hearts of Stone, Blood and Wine , Witcher 1 and Witcher 2 which are way better than the games you listed.

You forgot: Witcher board game, Witcher figurine, Witcher mug, Witcher body pillow and Witcher underwear

Marcin Iwinski is shizo militant vegan, all executives are incompetent, big ego and greedy while staff is increasingly transsexualized, SJWified, womanized and Americanized. Culturally, it's already Californian company based in Poland. Only good for junior programmers to put them on their CV

CD PROJEKT RED will NEVER AGAIN repeat Witcher 3. Understand that and move on

thronebreaker was pretty good even though I dislike card games

If you look at all the mechanics this game has- it matches those in a witcher 3 game:
itemization is identical,
mutagens just got turned into augmentations,
skill tree could be the same code for how similar it is,
quest types are identical and follow the same mechanics,
scan and hacking are modified Witcher sense,
dialogue system is the same (down to the amount of responses you can pick).

They ran out of time after making tons of unnecessary prototypes and then Frankensteined this shit together out of Witcher 3's code. Confirmed by glassdoor's reviews by their ex-employees on this company.

Every new mechanic (since W3) that they added just straight up sucks, so don't expect for it to get better.

The management and lead PR personas should be whipped each day until they fix the game or admit they screwed up and lied to everyone.

Of course it does. I’ve said it before. They practically did to Cyberpunk what Bethesda did to Fallout 3. Slapped a list of familiar names and art on top of their previous success in hopes that enough sheeple and shills would accept it.

Bad RPG? I suppose I shouldn't reward that with a purchase.

What if I want another Witcher 1 ?

TW3 sucks - I got bored before I came to the allegedly good parts (the DLC).

Fake news! No one wants another Witcher 1.

Fake news! No one wants another Witcher 1.

I do (With a new combat system).

Because you adopted a completionist stance. For Witcher 3, focus only on secondary quests you find interesting and on the main quest (the game is way too big for me) otherwise you'll get bored. Don't forget mods to improve the gameplay as well.

I agree. That game should come with an OCD warning.

Personally i liked Witcher 1's combat system the most of all three games.

 

[Ryzer]

remember collecting the sexcards in the witcher 1? cdpr will never be this based again. honestly you just need to look at the way they've changed their approach to sexuality from game to game to notice the steep decline they've had. whatever their next game will be, it will probably not have any straight sex at all and you'll be forced to take the kielbasa up the ass.

This isn't a good example. The best indicator of the decline from them is the alchemy/ learning (from books reading) system. It was so good in Witcher 1, I thought they would improve it even more in Witcher 3 but sadly they did not.
I prefer them to delve into deep RPG mechanics than sex scenes IMO.

It's fine if you just want a action...r...no, action game.

There's no real 'Roleplaying' in it. It has a lot of content, 40, 50 hours worth, some say 100, I've pushed out 200 doing all the gigs and exploring.

It's not a shit, unplayable game. But it's NOT a open world rpg, it's not the witcher of cyberpunk, it's not the GTA of cyberpunk. It tells a weird story set in Night City is all. Some of the gigs are fun. Some moments are poignant. This is what you have to keep in mind. There's like, one questline that has car racing. Gangs eventually basically disappear. And forget about getting lost in interiors, but walking the streets is a lot of eye candy. Gunplay is neat.

I had bugs. But nothing broke the game. One quest didn't clear up (A cyberpsycho gig), I could get yeeted dozens or hundreds of meters due to collision mesh bs, and uh, it would crash once when I tried to take a pic of UsCracks, but nothing impeded the gameplay or main storyline.

(this was the one causing the crashing in that sidequest line)

Is it worth 70, 60, 50 dollars? Fuck no. 40? Ehhhh. 30, 20, 10 - definitely.

 

[mediocrepoet]

Sort of like the poster above me said. I think if you approach it as a bit of a weird type of game: a looter shooter that's heavily driven by story missions rather than screwing around fighting all the time, that's about where it's at.

If dicking around in a (at least it used to be, I assume it's still ok now) very pretty, highly detailed cyberpunk world and geeking out on the eye candy is up your alley, you'll probably enjoy it. If you're expecting anything deep on any level, you probably won't. For me, the portrayal of some grimey environments contrasted with neon and chrome, etc. of the cyberpunk setting + things like smart bullets adjusting their trajectory in the air and getting chromed out hit enough of my childhood imagination points from playing tabletop games like Shadowrun was enough to carry my enjoyment. If you don't have that same reference point or can't appreciate games on a pretty shallow audio-visual level, I don't think you'll get as much out of it.

Edit: Also, the driving controls are some of the shittiest, most atrocious that I've experienced in any game since somewhere around GTA3. Which is awful in a game where you probably drive a lot, or at least should be driving a lot. Assuming they haven't actually patched this into something functional and fun.
