I've gotten back into Cyberpunk 2077; This game went from a disaster to becoming the version which should have been released! So many systems reworked, being able to ride the Metro in cinematic style, and the new story of Phantom Liberty makes this game great. It's still disappointing that the pool of romanceable characters is so small, with only one gay man in the entire line up. At least the other parts of Cyberpunk 2077 are so much stronger, like the lore about the Cyberpunk universe; talking about the game makes me want to continue my Phantom Liberty play session!

Its on my backlog, im going to start a new save and hopefully the sour taste the release version left for me will wash out. Have 3 games ahead of it so hopefully they help as well.

Overall, I find the full version of Cyberpunk 2077 a hell of a lot more satisfying than when it initially released in a broken state! If you are playing on Xbox Series S or X, there are occasional crashes but autosaving mostly makes it so only a few seconds to minutes is lost. As for the PC version, I cannot say what state Cyberpunk 2077 is on Steam/GOG. I agree that it's better to work on the games you have ahead in your to be played queue!

@WanderingPoltergeist @Desmond373 Haven't played the expansion yet but played through the entire game after the big update before it and can't remember it ever crashing. Of course YMMV but worked great for me in OpenSUSE Leap through Steam.

PC seems to have gotten a better deal in that regard it seems! I do wish they would address the console issue of occasional crashes though, but I am happy you are having an smooth game experience.

Bullshit. Go back and watch the teaser trailers. Bet it still isn’t that game. How much did someone pay you to write this?

Maybe they are just excited and enjoying something more than they thought they would. Let them enjoy themselves. This is a game that isn’t even getting new content. There is no way they are paying for shill posts 3 years later.

Personally, I am having fun with the game in its current state. The release version was so shitty, and I posted some spicy responses about Cyberpunk 2077 on release day. Shilling for corporations isn't my vibe, plus fanboys will shill for free because they have rose-tinted glasses on. They hope that all the positive press will give them more of a thing they like. I would prefer a game which is in a stable state and is content rich. Cyberpunk 2077 got there in the end, despite the stupid executives over the dev team almost sunk this game with their poor decision to release in a broken fucking state!

You certainly live up to your username. ROFL Shilling for a corporation is a move which is never in one's best interest! We should always speak honestly about games and the corpos who made said games. Cyberpunk 2077 will never be the release trailer, as game trailers have a history of being dishonest. It certainly wasn't at launch because Cyberpunk 2077 was a broken fucking mess. The dev team did try their best to make good on some of the promises, but not all of them. I do speak honestly that I do enjoy Cyberpunk 2077 in its current state, but I also acknowledge that it wasn't the game we were originally promised.

I’m glad you’re enjoying the game, i wasn’t trying to take that away from you. I just didn’t agree with the statement that it’s the game it should have been.

If they would have released this current version instead of the shitty release that we got at first...That would've been better in my opinion and I could've easily lived with a stable, fun game. We never were going to get a 1 to 1 trailer version of Cyberpunk 2077; I made peace with that after learning the misleading nature of trailers in general long ago (personally find trailers should be honest). It's close but not 100% there.

As for my enjoyment being taken away, you couldn't have if you tried! It was just a strongly worded response to my own post. You didn't do what most people would do and devolve into slurs or other demeaning statements used on those who have contrasting opinions.
