If you don't have a 6 or 8 core CPU and a RTX graphics card then stay away.
This game runs like crap at the moment of writing and when timing, dodging, blocking, parrying is part of the game's mechanics it is quite annoying to play it as such not to mention a headache.
The devs should prioritize performance above the graphics in my opinion.

A damn classic from the PS1 era, worth a playthrough.
1950s space aliens movies with tongue and cheek in a character with charm and gusto.

This game is a sequel to PnP game Cyberpunk Red which in term is a sequel to the PnP Cyberpunk 2020. The universe's lore is vast and expansive and goes into a LOT of details.
The world is as vast as an ocean but as deep as a puddle in CDPR's 2077 iteration.
Some of things which irk are: No corporate security presence; Arasaka is a mega corp which specializes in security, they have had prior to the 4th corporate war many contracts with the police and smaller businesses. As such they had most of the police force on a leash. This and various gangs not much acting as "protectors" of their "turf" is quite disappointing. For example: in Pacifica where the NCPD does not dare to intrude much, the Voodoo Boys would be the ones protecting the people there yet if you injure one civvie you got the whole force on your tail.
There are no Biotechnica clinics. Biotechnica specializes in genetic engineering
microbiological and biochemical research and have created Triticum vulgaris megasuavis, the genus of wheat that is refined into the synthetic grain alcohol/fuel CHOOH2. Besides that they offer Bodysculpting which is the means of altering one's appearance through cosmetic surgery and use of cybernetics. By the Time of the Red (Detailed in Cyberpunk Red), advances in the field of bodysculpting have made it no longer possible to visually identify a bodysculpted person. Higher supply of bodysculpting material has also made the process cheaper: 500eb for a normal bodysculpt, and 1000eb for an Exotic one. On the other hand, the increased proliferation of bodysculpting means it can no longer mechanically improve a character. Which brings up the question of why there isn't a way to modify your character in the game past the initial character creation screen? Hell I'd personally love to dabble in the exotic fashion part of it.
These are just a few examples but as a long time fan and player of the tabletop I find it disappointing. Not to take from anyone's enjoyment. People just want more from it, want some things which they probably knew way back when in the 90s and so on or saw in the trailers or heard in interviews which then got cut.

To close off all I'll say is that this is just sad...

Like Tony Hawk's Pro Skater with Saints Row, damn fine game.

Though it needs a controller as of writing this. The mouse aiming is basicly an emulated Xbox controller right stick and it sucks hard.

Still good though.
