Is it like the 'fuck you'-ending Bioware added later to ME3?

"What? You guys didn't liked how the game ended? Here have this new ending."

I'm playing 2.0 on the same, almost decade-old PC i played the original CP2077 on (i7-4790k, geforce 1060 6 gb, 16 GB RAM), and I have to say I'm impressed with the game's performance. They raised the minimum/recommended requirements before 2.0 launched, and theoretically I shouldn't even reach minimum (the CPU especially), but I have everything set on medium-high and receive constant 30-40 FPS with no sluggish performance whatsoever. The game seems to run even better than BG3 did at launch.

Im playing on a processor (i5-7600K) that is below the minimum specs now and i get even more fps than on previous patches gonna use my lvl 50 character for the dlc.

Those minimum specs are bullshit. Your CPU is enough. The Game is more GPU heavy than CPU. My Ryzen 7 5700G rarely has more than 35-40% load on high settings. The only time it gets around 50% is on more crowded area. You can decrease the crowd density to medium or low for your CPU.

Bad game

same problem as MGSV where you become a godlike killing machine and the only content to do is clearing outposts of guys armed with squirt guns

Please don't compare MGSV, a game with an actual good gameplay to Cyberpunk, only gobbled and praised by polish "human" trash here.

Looks like someone is glitching through the game

Having fucked around a bit with 2.0 I have to ask: Why are people excited for this again? You can just watch a story summary of the DLC on Youtube and get the exact same experience as playing it, sans the tediousness.

 

[Alienman]

The game is great until you meet Keanu Reeves.
Very meta if you think about it, V's life goes to shit as well.

They forgot the bird.

 

[lukaszek]

iconics seem mostly nerfed, at least tech and throwing ones. Seem better to get basic one and use mods.
Iconic throwing knife got lowered headshot% for some reason. Achilles extra shots do not seem to be bolting? I guess only lizzie bullet spam is still good

Good idea, shit execution.

Feels like some writer was seething at the fans and their own characters.

Really? Didn't watch the video, just read the synopsis, but:

Spoiler

- you get rid of the Johnny virus and have your life back all to yourself;
- you get a cushy government job in a nice, air-conditioned office, far away from danger;

At the cost of:
- you can no longer be a Thing in the Internet of Things, oh no, you'll have to take a mobile phone with you to the crapper like it's 2023, how terrible.

Dunno man, sounds like a pretty serious incline for V, given the circumstances! Especially when you consider the alternatives...

If you watch the ending:

Spoiler

Everyone ends up worse, and you become a mindless NPC wandering Night City with no hope for the future.

It's bleak as fuck.

I watched it and one thing bugged me a great deal:

Why would nobody contact anyone V knew to inform them about the coma? The surgery apparently wasn't a secret. It doesn't add up to me. The whole ending hangs on the fact that nobody knew V was in a coma following the surgery some people they knew already knew about and it feels like a weak reason to force "fuck you" drama.

 

[Child of Malkav]

So they added an ending that's even darker?
Pff, whatever, can you play using nothing but optical camo and takedowns? Then I would probably consider it.

Even bosses can be taken down with stealth nigga.

Haven't played since launch back in 2020 or whenever this thing came out. And I ain't no nigga.

 

[Vyvian]

I wish the whole game kept the feel of Pre-Heist.
It's the closest thing we'll ever have to the game they originally set out to make, a wannabe legend just trying to live in Night City and make a name for themselves.
After Act 1 it just doesn't feel the same even if you can move around freely.

I ain't watching an hour-long spoiler, but leave it to CDPR to put a bad spin on good news. And hey, Saul might not realise it at first, but his life probably took a turn for the better.

More seriously - I doubt any of this forced supporting character drama would hit much of a chord with me because I didn't particularly care for most of the bobbleheads involved. I liked Viktor and Misty, and I guess River was a stand-up guy trying to do good, but the rest of the cast were scumbags and players in a dirty game and I never got a chance to get attached to them. As for V, to riff on an old saying - to have hope for the future, one first needs a future.

Anyway, I'm not sure what the causal link is supposed to be here, I'll see when I play it, but I think I smell an artificial guilt trip, BioWare-style.

Kinda funny that you can simply strangle a cyberpsycho and make them sleep.

 

[S.H.O.D.A.N.]

Is the expansion even out for people to be spoiling it?

"Influencers" got early access so they are farming views posting cinematics and the ending so it's spreading.
