Cyberpunk 2077 - New RPG by CD PROJEKT RED

[The Mars Volchenkov]

They rushed out the game unto the market so they has to cut corners. Not having to animate a character in 3rd person and using 1st person instead happened because of that.

Or it’s just better in first person with all the shooting you do.

You also are supposed to be seeing everything from V’s perspective. The Keanu stuff would be real weird with 3rd person. Actually most of the story stuff would, IMO.

 

[Osprey]

From Wikipedia: "The first-person perspective was chosen to immerse players more than what third-person would allow. Cutscenes and gameplay were both made in first-person to seamlessly blend together."

In other words, it was a design decision early on for the sake of immersion. That's probably not just because it's a shooter but also because there's hacking, visual mods and "braindances."

 

[HanSolo]

I can see the merit of that argument but TW3 was plenty immersive in third person. But that was stylistically different because Geralt isn't the same blank slate as V. He's the central character and the player is dictating his story.

I finished the anime last night. I'm not okay...

Got back in the games after a few months absence. Still at the same point, last mission left, a meeting with Johnny and some gigs left. And the anime made me look if there's some things I need to have for the final mission, only to find out that the endings are...not the happiest.

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Yes! sequel official!

 

[Jovavic]

Yes! sequel official!

Looking forward to playing it on PS6 in seven years lol

They better take their time, drop the bullshit when it comes to problems and release it properly.

 

[Chaels Arms]

I'm excited because the problems and shortcomings in the original game were indicative of time crunch and not that CDPR lost their mojo. If they take their time it will be an epic game.

 

[Jussi]

They also released an official music video of THAT song on both the game's YT channel and on Netflix's channel. If you haven't watched the show, the video is very spoilery.

They had a time crunch AND delayed the game a bunch of times?

Yes.

 

[HanSolo]

Not as excited for the sequel but hoping they take their time with it. If it's not a bust at launch, I'll get it

 

[Mikeaveli]

Unfortunately it will take a while because they will be working on The Witcher first but I'm pretty excited for a second Cyberpunk game. Technologically it should be another generation defining title using Unreal Engine 5 and the game itself should be another fun time although I'm no longer expecting a deep RPG from CDPR.

I heard the new Intel card runs this in raytracing mode like a dream for $300. It might be my next card.

 

[Jussi]

I found it and tried it. It's really good.

Still wondering if I should install my physical copy on my Xbox One X. Will it take forerver to install? Will it run smoothly?

I will replay Battlefield 1 for Rememberance/Veterans Day this week end (as well as rewatch that 1917 movie), then finish The Pitt (Fallout 76).

I might give a try to Cyberpunk right after. It tickles me for a while now.

 

[WeDislikeEich]

Finally finished this game a few days ago. I tried to play it right after launch but then lost interest with all the bugs. Figured I’d give it another try when the next gen update came out but didn’t get around to it till a month or so ago when my backlog of games ran out.

I’m glad I gave it a chance. I actually really enjoyed the game + story. You just need to get through act 1 and then the game really opens up. Did all the side quests and gigs and stuff too. There were some fun missions.

Went with the “star” ending. I cheated and watched how all the endings went before making my choice.

I’ll probably pick up the DLC when it’s out, and would play a sequel too.

 

[Osprey]

It's been two years and I keep putting off this game. First, it was the state of the game at launch and wanting to wait until I upgraded my PC. Next, I decided that I might as well wait for the next-gen update. Now, I'm waiting for the update that adds enhanced ray tracing. At this rate, I might end up waiting for the 10-year anniversary Definitive Edition.

They botched this game so hard I’ll never play it just out of principle. Can’t support that company with my $$$

I played it near launch on PC and it was fine. shouldnt have launched on last gen though for sure.

Definitely one of the most buggy games ive played though but nothing that hurt the experience like cutscenes breaking or whatever (although I know that did happen to people).

I dont know if there was an fsr 2.0 update already but Cyberpunk recently got an fsr 2.1 update and its a huge upgrade in performance. Very similar to native 1080p resolution and took me from 45 fps to 60-70 fps on a GTX 1080. Should get you comfortably in that gsync range if you're on low end hardware.

...or if you're on moderately high end hardware and simply want ray tracing. What you described is what a 3070 gets with it enabled. Ray tracing, your ticket to making it feel like you have low end hardware again.
