I MADE THIS POST AFTER PLAYING CYBERPUNK WHEN IT FIRST CAME OUT.
Things Cyberpunk 2077 fu**ed up, things they cut from the game since the trailers and things they lied to us about:
1- A subway network (cut)
2- basic traffic and pedestrian AI (lie)
3- Dense population and traffic (lie)
4- wall running (cut)
5- activities like eating, playing pool and drinking (lie)
6- police enforcement (they just spawn near you when you commit a crime and they never chase you in a police vehicle, because they can’t) (fu**ed up)
7- assassinations from above (cut)
8- multiple romance options and intricate attraction based on many aspects including clothing style, attitude and physical attraction (lie)
9- it was supposed to be an RPG but last year they changed the genre to action adventure because they realized they couldn’t afford to make an RPG with all the bugs piling up (fu**ed up)
10- the bugs aren’t due to releasing early, it’s due to bad management and development. They will never be fixed because you can’t fix bad development and coding. (fu**ed up)
11- day and night cycle for civilians (lie)
12- frame rate and stability is terrible for every base and pro console which is bad when development was mostly dedicated to those consoles (fu**ed up)
13- some parts that they said we’d experience in the game turned out to be cinematics and non playable (lie)
14- BUGGY AS F**K (fu**ed up)
15- worst sound design I’ve ever experienced in a game (fu**ed up)
16- most of the RPG elements are no longer existent and got replaced with looter shooter elements which ruin the games looting experience. (fu**ed up)
17- no real karmic outcome for killing or knocking people out making the feature useless (lie)
18- “most believable living city” yeah right, San Andreas did it better and it was on Ps2 (lie)
19- for a game based on altering your body with mechanical bits you can’t even change your hairstyle or modify your body and the ripperdoc is basically just a trader of talents, you don’t even need to sit in the chair after the first time, ruining immersion (fu**ed up)
20- told us pre release that there were multiple ways to do specific things yet when the game came out those precise things were only done one way. (Lie)
21- the whole game is linear as f**k, like Mafia 2 or LA Noire.. there’s no point in playing it after you beat it unless you start a new character (fu**ed up)
22- they said they made over a thousand unique pedestrian NPCs but that’s obviously a lie (LIE)
23- claimed that lifepath prologue could take up to 6 hours to complete when it actually takes like 15 - 20 mins (Lie)
And with all this bu****it I still love the story and atmosphere. also, that soundtrack f**king slaps.. yet I still consider this the biggest disappointment in gaming history. I’m loving it because I have to at this point.. we could’ve had something great but I guess the shareholders win again.
