For me, for whatever reason, since launch I had not encountered bugs. I was actually expecting to encounter a few at the very least, then again I probably didn't progress enough to find the most bizarre things Cyberpunk 2077 might have had to offer.

Cyberpunk 2077 is a great game and is worth your time spending in a beautiful world with fairly interesting narration/story-line and gameplay. The execution of the release was poor, I believe there was just a huge problem with the hype, both in terms of how the potential players dealt with it (by being really demanding and impatient) and the dev company responding and honestly looking like they wanted to profit off the hype before it died down (by rushing a release out instead of a complete and competent game product). Good for business, bad for image.

They also made several poor decisions on other platform releases (like the PS4 and Xbox One versions for the game which suffered the most in player reception), it would've been best for them to not even try to sell on those platforms. But back to this review which is specific for this game on steam and pc.

The game has good and interesting mechanics. There are also interesting choices to make for the player. And the game play design is solid. The exploration elements/items/objects are also neat. The world, however, certainly feels very trapped in and small and almost sandbox-y. Initially, I wasn't hoping for the game to be a hack and slash (during the first few teasers), but they made it work really well and that is impressive. They certainly lived up to good RPG elements and really took us down a good cyberpunk age/aesthetic road of how we might imagine the world to be in such a time/era.
The crafting system here feels like a lost cause because of how the system has been made, despite being properly functional, there's simply just no real reason to use the system when you're better off looting and shopping for the stuff. Of course certain things you might only get through crafting, but there's still no real point to it (since some items in the same category and tier are equally as good or better when you come across them without crafting) and I think the devs could have used that time to spend it on other areas of the game and improve it overall. The Spiffing Brit has a good youtube video showing off an exploit to show how redundant the crafting system is and can easily be exploited for monetary (credits) benefits.

Ultimately, here are the scores and TL;DR.

Great game for PC, as of the current patch there are no major game breaking bugs and very few minor bugs that I know of. Personally have not encountered bugs since launch (except for a few minor ones). It is a good investment, it will give you a fun time if you're somewhat into RPGs and Open World games, don't get into it though if you can't stand the Cyberpunk world/concept. It certainly proves its worth as a Triple-A title.

Gameplay 8/10. Story 8/10. Graphics/Visual Appeal 10/10. Combat 7/10. Soundtrack 8/10. Game Performance 7/10. Game Logic 5/10. DLCs 5/10. Character Compulsion or Interest/Attraction 9/10.

Works better than the browser app. Good enough for me. A very good game in terms of the game play and the use of intelligence.

Rockstar support is very helpful when you are troubled. +rep lul

The fact that Grand Theft Auto V (GTA5) and GTA Online feel like 2 different games to me and they come in one pack seems very critical. I find the main story to be casual rockstar script writing, it does the exaggerate the feeling that it is unique in the sense of how things play out in terms of story route. If you get the game you probably should get it for the sake of GTA online solely. It feels uncomfortably worthwhile to say so that just GTA online is worth $60 USD, its quite steep but to say the least the features and entertainment you get for just GTA online is of a significant amount.

This has the environment where this could be a game requiring a lot of grinding. You could end up procrastinating a lot over this game. Load times are crazy. I mean sure keep items and feature prices steep no problem, don't take it to the point where we need to become a pay to win player or have to pick up some unethical measures. Ping difference in combat results in troll results, it's frustrating to be on the short end of the stick in that situation.

To conclude, get it for GTA Online or not at all.

Early Access Review
+ means a positive point.
- meaning a negative point.

Early conclusion after summing it up: The negatives outweigh and positive points at this time. Don't go for it while in the hopes of complete satisfaction as a overall game.

- The optimization sucks awfully. We gotta expect everyone to have super computers for full efficiency.
- The development team for the potential sake of the happiness of us as a player base or even just as customers to just play the game is bad. Coming up to play the game and we have to deal with a work that has more time and money invested in it to make more money. I'm sorry to make this a two point thing but it is.
- It's more of a business structure than a product in the gaming industry. (following up the last point)
- Milking so much money out of events and just purchases and start ups from the early access point but none to show for progress. It seems that daily progression of life improvements in this game is intentionally being taken one step per day; when they can just leap or take at least two steps in moving forward with the state of the game.
- You encounter one bug. It gets fixed. But... the new patched version has plus 2 new bugs in place of the one that's fixed.

+ The development of this game is actually progressing and the people at work on this, have not dropped this. At least...
+ It is extremely fun to play. Whether you're in for the solo thrill or the salty blissful company of your mates.
+ It is exactly worth the price it is tagged for. But what the actual f**k did they do with it ??
+ Player base is pretty dank.
+/- (mixed status point) Not for the soft hearted where you get triggered due to a meme or racial slurs(97% of the games). Of course the solution to mute all voice is simple and easily present.
+ Comedic tactic points are possible in this game.
+ If I had to say, mechanically, this is the best battle royale game out at present.

- Hackers. (Inevitable in multiplayer games, but the system dealing with it is pretty meh)
- The state of being a "early access game" as a defense to excuse yourself is ridiculously hilarious. I mean what are you doing out here making virtual cosmetics (garbage RNG drop rates even for getting an average quality of a skin), making tournament events with players from all over the world. Just make a choice to go down one path ffs. (No salt, just stating the situation,fyi I don't have interests in skins)
- If you get matched into a game with a streamer in it, you get screwed over apparently. (?)
- They are still generating a ♥♥♥♥ ton of money and the changes over time are disgustingly insignificant.

Well thanks for all the warnings before hand of playthrough. Honestly this is such a satisfactory game, so innovative, well written, drawn and produced. Truly a great product. But I must say truly not for one with a weak mind and/or heart. I guess my previous mental scarrings nullified this game's effect on my mentality. Anyways cheers to the dev for making such a good piece. It was intriguing and had absorbed me from the beginning till end. Oh, word of wisdom:- if you start playing it, try to fulfill the completion in one time span, do not like wait a day and recontinue. Trauma is over time reduced once conceived at an earlier period. One thing I would like to criticize would be that, the music gives a lot of the situation away and I think for a more thrilling experience the timing could use some work.

Fun, weird, shot-firing (in gameplay and chat conversations),
Hardly get free items or good drops. Nice chat commands and vocals. Ridiculously fun; Who wouldn't want this? This is a must-have game. Praise to yar lords it's free.
