Cyberpunk 2077 Pre-Release Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Jenkem]

imagine if they put as much effort into the quest design and factions as they did to recreate burnout paradise...

 

[Kazuki]

The game isn't out yet right?

Then they should scrap this whole game and announce that the game will be rebuilt from the ground up as proper turn based isometric CRPG.

Man, I really want another Shadowrun

 

[Jenkem]

Infinitron now that the shills in this thread have embraced and accepted that it's a GTA clone (...and that's a good thing!) please move this to General Gaming....

Assassin's Creed Valhalla can stay in GRPG.

CYBERPUNK INFOS GATHERED FROM JOURNOS:
• There are no loading screens aside from the initial load time

• Movement is a lot smoother than in The Witcher 3
• The player is nearly always in control of the camera, even during dialogue scenes

• The game doles out a lot of interesting lore while being very subtle and casual with it
• There are no lore dumps given to the player - everything is experienced or sought-out by the player

• Yorinobu Arasaka has the Johnny Silverhand chip
• Gun Shops can offer you missions
• The weather effects are stunning
• The lighting effects are next-level
• The Maelstrom Flathead mission played similar to the old demo - except that Royce isn't given the chip and he shot him in the head, so no boss fight since...he's dead. The original Maelstrom gang leader is in the building somewhere

• No official confirmation of a photo mode
• RTX is a game changer with reflections and lighting - especially at night

• You can watch commercials on TV
• You still can't customize your apartment
• Every building you enter is insanely detailed

• You can steal cars, trucks and motorcycles - even shooting the driver and then taking the vehicle
• You can no longer select a wardrobe item off a hanger from the closet in your apartment. That is done via the character equipment menu. You can see your clothes in the closet -

• You can take enemy weapons and use them
• Although after the tutorial players could do whatever they wanted, they were confined to Watson.

[typical user]

I really like the vibes at the end (3:16 mark) in 2077 in style trailer. On Reddit people were speculating what is Silverhand's agenda, what are his motives. From what I understood he wanted to rescue his girlfriend Alt from Arasaka HQ in Night City and then blow it up with a nuke which he partially succeded. I think the story of 2077 will be working with Johnny who will want to vaporize enitre city again with no regards for the population because of his bias "if you live your life here you support corpo-suits". It will be up to us to stop him, get rid of him from our head or work with him and destroy mega-corporations. The trailer alludes that probably one of the game's ending will leave us dead just as Jackie who can/will die in prolog. I've read somewhere Night City suffered from nuclear detonation during 4th corporate war so I wonder what Johnny S. will cook-up to surpass nuclear fallout. He does want to see it all burn like he said in 2019 CGI trailer. Part of the story might be gaining a support from major factions/gangs. They were shown for a reason. GTA V has gangs too but not much abou their origins, leaders, main source of income, etc.

I wonder how it turns out in the next month and how close I was. But I expect there won't be a happy endings to the main story. DLCs will probably expand horizontally. In Witcher 3 the only non-canon choice is Ciri leaving Geralt behind, because he has to survive for the events of Blood and Wine to take place which happen after Wild Hunt story. I also expect CDPR will bring additional houses and car tuning in an expansion or some sort. It was alluded in rides of the dark future portion and The Diner CGI. There has to be more ways to spend blood money than body and weapon augmentations.

EDIT: Just to provide more evidence for Johnny's motives, in making-of for russian exclusive Night-City Wire the VO for RU Johnny says based on the text he was provided that "he isn't really pleasant person". Maybe that meant when players do not cooperate or maybe he meant more.

 

[Heroic Liberator]

People weren't kidding, this does look like GTA 2077. What a shame.

I'm pretty sure it'll fail to do GTA as well as GTA. The rest of it could be entertaining depending on a few factors, but I'm preparing to be disappointed.

I'm pretty sure that nowadays Rockstar would fail to do GTA as well as GTA.

This will be my first GTA game. HUPE BYOIS !!!!111

Danikas is on 24/7 watch to slam all those CDPR haters. Fear his wrath or a band of emaciated cosplayers with grey-colored hair will suddenly appear before your door.

 

[Comrade Goby]

They aren't showing quests because they don't want to spoil things.

Don't get me wrong if it releases and then is bad I'll join the hate parade but all this autistic negativity makes no sense. Either mental illness or shilling from Bethesda agents or something

I haven't paid much attention to Cyberpunk 2077 since it was announced. So it is GTA now?

Always has been.
