Overall, it was short of the experience I was hoping for, but it still wasn't the most disappointing gaming experince that I've had. Even if the game was amusingly unoptimized, I couldn’t put it down until I saw it through. Despite a barebones experience, I can’t say that I didn’t enjoy my time in Cyberpunk as V’s misadventures and Johnny Silverhand’s bold rebel antics captivated me and kept me invested throughout. Having seen the horrors of other players’ experience online, I didn’t really do too many side quests or explore the vast amount of cyberware upgrades. It took a week to complete the main story.

Other than that, the only issue that I ran into that could be considered deal-breaking was when the game hard crashed on me once while free roaming.

I only encountered inconveniencing bugs such as UI issues, physics glitches, and the odd NPC T-pose in my first playthrough on the Xbox Series X. Having personally pre-ordered the game - I felt lucky. Gamers and critics alike were furious at the game’s developers for releasing the game in such an unfinished state. In response, CDPR faced a backlash that rivaled that of No Man’s Sky's infamously tumultuous release back in 2016. The interface and graphics were fine, but both were buried underneath a heap of glitches and misclicks. The pedestrian AI that was advertised as being unparalleled and lifelike was nothing short of lifeless. And once you started the game, there was no way to further customize your Night City avatar outside of changing their clothes. Those third-person cutscenes? Nowhere to be found, robbing players of the ability to see the characters they spent 10 minutes creating.

It was riddled with bugs across the PC and next-gen platforms, while versions of Cyberpunk on the old-gen consoles, or anything less than a state-of-the-art PC, were bordering on unplayable. The game that was shown to players in 2018 wasn’t exactly what they got in 2020 and lacked a lot of the groundbreaking features that were promised.

The hype had begun and we were all ready to get our hands on the final product. Being a first-person RPG (role-playing game) with third-person cutscenes, random dangerous encounters, comprehensive pedestrian pathing, a sleek UI, and terrific graphics, Cyberpunk 2077 was set to be the most immersive and cutting-edge experience in gaming yet. And wow, it was good! The game looked awesome. The next thing I vividly remember in the lead-up to its release was the 48-minute gameplay trailer from E3 2018. The concept was interesting and given CDPR’s craftsmanship with Witcher 3, I was excited to see what the Polish-based developer could offer in a futuristic setting.
As I was finishing up my first playthrough, my brother alerted me to CD Projekt RED - Witcher 3’s developer - being in development of a new game: Cyberpunk 2077, a video game adaptation of a sci-fi tabletop. It was 2017 and my brother had recommended The Witcher 3 after he himself had beaten it and swore by its quality. The game is buggy enough to be unplayable and there seems to be some sort of vaseline permanently applied to the camera.I still remember when I first heard about Cyberpunk 2077. Kotaku notes that the current state of the game is enough to recommend against trying to play it on either of these two consoles. The state of the title raises questions about what the heck CDPR has been doing with its time, and why it would ever believe this was an acceptable launch vehicle for a game.
Given how few people own Xbox Series Xs or PS5s right now, the overwhelming majority of console players who buy CP2077 are going to be playing it on what is now last-gen hardware, and the last-gen hardware experience is so abysmally bad, it’s going to overhang impressions of the game. They were supposed to be a key platform for the game, and CDPR would have theoretically been testing their builds on both consoles as well as PC.

The PS4 and Xbox One versions ought to be well-suited to the title. Combined with the extremely rough state of the title, it’s obvious CD Projekt Red had no business launching this game on last-gen platforms yet. The gap between the visuals people are getting on the Xbox/PS4 and the game as it was sold to people are big enough for this to potentially qualify as false advertising.
