Cyberpunk2077

I'm going to say it - Cyberpunk 2077 is the best game I've ever played.

Despite the obvious shortcomings, I really think it is. Now I know I'm at risk of losing credibility with this statement as it's almost like some of the blind hate in reverse, but I'll explain my position.

Yes, the shortcomings are there for all to see and we all hope the bugs are slowly fixed with patches. However, looking past this it's the first game I've played where I feel truly immersed. I know this is the opposite of how some people feel with the lack of interaction, but I see it differently. In real life I can explore a new city and enjoy taking in fresh surroundings. I don't actually need to walk in to each shop, bar and restaurant to enjoy exploring. Cyberpunk feels the same. And I haven't played a game before where I've felt this type of immersion. I haven't played a game where it's enjoyable to walk down a street taking it all in. I even use my controller to walk at a slower pace sometimes and I'm yet to use fast travel.

Now as a disclaimer I have a 3090 and I'm playing with maximum settings at 1440p. I think if I were on a last gen console I may feel differently. This does make me wonder how many players are really missing out on how the game is supposed to look.

Aside from immersion I'm enjoying all other aspects of the game. The story is excellent. The combat is great and the RPG elements are great. Because I'm enjoying it so much I wanted to wait before posting anything like this as to make sure it wasn't just the novelty effect of a new game. But after a week and nearly 50hrs, I still look forward to playing it with the same excitement.

Many other single player experience games the novelty has worn off a lot sooner and I tend to have to persevere to complete them.

I might be a little biased as a scfi dystopian theme game will always draw me in more than say a wild west theme of Red Dead. I loved Deus Ex for example.

After reading so much negativity elsewhere I really wanted to post my thoughts.

Have fun chooms!

Seeing the hate this game is getting makes me very sad

99% of the posts are people complaining about the game. It bugs me how people can not see what a masterpiece this game is. The story is incredibly well-writtten and the story-telling is equally well executed with quality cinematics. The musics are simply amazing and does an incredible job at conveying emotions. Side-characters are also very well-written, they are almost all likeable and easy to bond with. All this being ignored because of bad AI and bugs is making me feel very sad. For me this was a once in a life time experience and I'am glad that I had the chance to play this game.
