Why Is Cyberpunk 2077 SO BAD?!

- Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the greatest disappointments in gaming history. It has ironically had the biggest digital launch of all time. But CD Projekt Red didn't just drop the ball, they destroyed it. Just how BAD is Cyberpunk 2077 and why? What ways does it fall flat and how does it compare to other open world titles? Only one way to find out...

TELL ME LIES TELL ME SWEET LITTLE LIES
Goddamn, this really was a massive disappointment. Probably needed an extra 2 years in the oven to become what CDPR was trying to sell us. That misleading marketing though. Anyways, at least Keanu Reeves and the soundtrack were amazing. But damn CDPR faded itself real fast.

God why do the suits have to ruin everything first sonic 06 then sonic boom now this WHY CAN'T IT JUST RELEASE WHEN IT'S READY STOP RUSHING IT YOU GREEDY BASTERDS
Damn bro, hope you at least enjoyed some of the jokes and moments. Still disappoints me on how this launch turned out
Honestly yeah the npc interaction was better in the witcher 3 and those npc's where kinda bruh

*Top 10 worst insults in the world*
“This game is flaccid”
"I was limp throughout my entire play through" Top 5 worst insulates in the world.
@@jahck866 ya i hate when someone insulates me
@@NobleVagabond2552 Nice one.
Fun Fact: This game is like perfectly-baked beans but the taste testers (CDPR management) threw it in the middle of the road.
"This game is more flaccid than a Cursed Halo sniper rifle!" 😜
Those 200 awards were given when it wasn't even released yet.
Awards for an unreleased game should be illegal.
There are plenty of buyable awards (almost all beauty contests). It's a business model.
And with how unfinished the game is, one has to wonder if CDPR didn't invest more money into marketing than into the game itself...
@Samwise I wouldn't be surprised if this was the case : Just Hiring Keanu Reeves must have probably cost them a lot of money.
it's like giving a gold medal to an athlete before he/she even runs the fucking race. "Oh he/she did amazing timing on the training laps!"
All industry awards are bullshit!
i watched so many reviews of cyberpunk and im always laughing to the fact that every single one of them has different bugs
1.6 has been solid, also cheaper than half price. great deal
@@bradhaines3142 Still encountered some bugs not entirely game breaking though. But annoying for sure.
It’s good now but the bugs people used to talk about back then were funny
It's still not that good sadly. So much cut content and missed potential :/
@@nousername2942 I disagree, I think it's really good
I think you really hit the nail on the head when you pointed out how the first part of the game up until the point when Jackie dies... was fantastic. I think it really built up my anticipation to go out and explore the open world, but it was immediately after that part of the game that I realized that I cant even care about what I'm doing if I try to.
Literally just hit this wall. Judy is keeping me playing but with Jackie gone I’m kinda lost as to why I’m playing
@@Bwoodlyy panam is da reason
In hindsight, the intro made zero sense. We got to know plots, groups, characters and so on that had nothing to do with the story later on. Its like CDPR had a vision in mind in the beginning, after ten percent was done realized, that it wasnt doable, and developed something entirely different afterwards.
"Go back to sleep Samurai, the city hasn't rendered yet"
I hope you get at least 1k likes. Great comment man. Lmao 🤣
Why people can't come up with their own jokes??
@@alangols1434 cause a lot of people aren't and that's not an insult
@@Chammezl9813 What?
... Go back to sleep Samurai, Johnny character's motivation has not been written yet
It's funny AF how a game about Corporate Greed failed becauze of corporate greed
And because CD Project Red thought they could use the reputation earned from the witcher 3 to hype people up, but just killed off any reputation they had earned from that game.
@@dinorazor3413 That's less CDPR and more the money people pulling the strings.
@@planescaped I mean your right they were trying to polish the game but were forced to make money from it as well so they released it on Christmas.
@@dinorazor3413 the game was announced before Witcher 3 was released
@@dinorazor3413 and the Witcher 3 sucked nuts on launch
37:51 in the story we learn he hates Arasaka because they took his girlfriend from him. They killed her and made her an AI. Johnny bombed the building and got his girlfriend’s AI out of their system. That’s why Johnny didn’t just leave with Rogue when he started the bomb timer. He had one last thing he had to do. Get his girlfriend’s AI out of there.
Yeah I think his point of noone having clear motivations is total bullshit, human life is valued so little that the only thing people can really do to feel like they're worth something is to become a legend, even if you're a high paid arasaka executive they don't give jackshit if you live or die as shown in the corpo intro. Also V doesn't need to have motivation like jackie being on life support because he already has motivation, HE.DOES.NOT.WANT.TO.DIE. I can't believe the act man has overlooked these extreamly clear points the game is making.
The game "won" over 200 awards before it even released, that could make you think it's because of early copies, but if you look closely to the award list they're all for "best sci-ci game of the year" "best aesthetics" and so on given by non game related magazines, none of which reflects the game's quality in any way
Act man is correct it kind of is false advertising, you mean art awards are not quality of experience playing the game awards.
But hey I guess AAA publishers don't give a shit about the consumer given how they release them.
@@crow16ross56 everyone was harping how CDPR is actually indie... now where they fucked up once everybody calling them AAA lol.
“Why is Cyberpunk so BAD?!” Is a phrase I never thought I’d hear a year ago

CDPR : "We spent years making a highly detailed City"
Me : "Can u interact with it in any way?"
CDPR: "No but we have Keanu Reeves"
More like they tried to make a game but people kept begging them for it and then they forced them to apologise for there mistakes
Not a lot of people agree with me but I still think CDPR is completely innocent
What would interacting with the city look like to you?
@@bonb0n593 Bruh they still blatantly lied to us tho. That doesn't make them innocent at all. Besides, they had 8 long years to develop it which they spent doing God knows what.
@@SCA84 lying to people is being forced to release the unfinished game and then being forced to apologise for giving people what they want?
Uh huh sure
@@bonb0n593 "Giving people what they want" since when did people want an unfinished game? They intentionally hid any real gameplay from the consumers by preventing reviewers from showing their own gameplay to sugarcoat the fact that the game is dogshit and unplayable.
One of the devs of Hollow Knight said something very wise once. I don't know the exact sentence he said but this is an approximation:
"We use the budget we have to build a game that can be playable, and if we still have time and budget we will add more."
But CD Projekt Red did the very opposite.
It's staggering how many people are willing to overlook serious design flaws and a lack of meaningful content for this game because CDPR released a few patches and an anime. Meanwhile, you're still the only person in the whole city that can ride a motorcycle. That's how bad their traffic system is.
I take it you never even played the game lol
@@f-5e126 uhm... which one of you is the more shamefully comical idiot?
Yyup Meman is totally right about the player being the only one capable of riding a bike.
Despite the fact at least Jackie and Panam rode one during a SCRIPTED sequence, and Tyger Claws members have bikes parked, the still very basic traffic system cannot do jack shit with bikes and that's kinda hilarious and immersion breaking.
So you either dum-dum or intentionally missed his point.
And on the flip side, you can find stuff to bitch about anywhere and even still more than avarage amount in CP'77 to this day. But that does not take away from the fact that the game has, and HAD a soul from day-0, which is increasingly rare in the big leagues of the industry.
Wasting hours upon hours into a game just to not meaningfully engage with it is, say with me again... Either dum-dum or intentionally misses the point.
Thanks for the show and go back to T-posing guys.
so the game is bad because npcs dosent ride bikes ? really stupid argument
@@kinga.t.242 Well it is bad and lazy af. Because why have motorcycle at all? Why only V is allowed to ride one in a vast futuristic world? Doesn't that bother you?
I can only recall the npc ride motorcycle in one of the side quest with the Aldecaldos gang, and THAT'S IT. So it is stupid to say what OP said is stupid argument.
@@kinga.t.242 no, it is just another point on the list of the things that make it a bad game...
Why even care about character customization if you never get to see your character
The game was first intended to have third person cutscenes but it was removed afterward due to bad management and rushes
what type of logic is that it’s like saying “why do you care how master chiefs armor looks if we only see it in first person”
@@PaulCantSleep you can see master chief full body in the cutscenes, and i dont think much people care how he looks, his armor is generic and you cant change it and is the same armor since 2001, yout comparisson makes no sence
@@PaulCantSleep we get cut scenes of master chief in third person most cutscenes are shot lile your watching a movie in cyber punk 90% of the cut scenes are in first person and you hardily get to see what you actually look like
@@jakenguyen1150 Nope, CDPR from day one declared it that Cyberpunk 2077 will be completely first person with only one or two third person cutscenes and that's what you got. So, stop sulking at least on this.
I'm glad Keanu Reeves isn't getting hate. Man is probably upset after hearing the response and seeing the result
keanu deserves no hate honestly, i always believe that a bad thing shouldn't hurt everyone associated with it. if coca cola came out saying they used elves as slave labor, i wouldn't hate the logo designer, the factory worker, or the janitor. Hate is like credit, give it where it's due and everything else leave it. I'm so proud of people for not hating keanu cuz he's awesome and has a track record to be emulated. i hope he gets more roles in video games, cheers!
Keanu is too pure to be hated, and too awesome for this game. He deserved better.
He’s famus as a movie actor anyway and he’s only a character in the game its not like he’s the head of cdpr or smth. And yeah this game being suck will bring no lose to him so its a definite win situation for him.
The game's failures simultaneously have nothing to do with him and have a _lot_ to do with him. You can't get mad at Keanu for what went wrong, but a lot of what went wrong was because of decisions related to his hiring. I strongly doubt he personally asked CDPR to remake the whole game in two years.

As someone who bought the game late 2023 I fucking love this game. 0 bugs. Only time I really noticed anything was a drinking animation where V didn't actually pick up the beer. But most games don't even have that sort of animation detail
Yeah i bought it a week ago and can't put it down
same this games awesome now i’ve been playing nonstop I can’t put the controller down
Yeah, years later they fixed it. Shitty ass team.
"Most games don't even have that sort of animation details"
*RDR2* have that drinking animation whether your in a saloon or drinking from your inventory/satchel
Same with you man, I actually was a pre ordered but only ended up playing the whole game (65 hours) a few months ago. I loved everything about it, the gameplay, the story, the relationships with the characters, it was one of my favourite rpgs for sure, and I'm planning to do a second playthrough to check out the new dlc
26:23 you actually do get to ride the roller coaster, once, there's a small group of people trying to get it work and you have to help them fix it, the moment you do, you have the option to ride it, not as impressive as the trailer at all, the game sucks in general

@@NoName-nj1sc you cannot have ads unless you surpass a certain number of subscribers. Thing is, most people just spam as many ads as they can instead of taking the time to put some breaks in their videos and then placing the ads in those breaks.

Interestingly, that whole talk on a first person only perspective was done in Republic commando (a highly reviewable game might I add). We only know boss is orange themed because of the cover art, open screen, and arms. The whole game is seen through the helmet, except for as a baby, teen, early training, and getting the helmet. And I think it really really works
Difference is Republic Commando is a genuinely good game with great gunplay actually good story and an amazing IP
Cyberpunk is a game that just made video game industry as a whole so much worse by breaking all of their promises, buggy beyond any standards and made those """apology""" posts standard
One thing that has always bugged me about this game is the way people talk. The words they miss out.
Like, they don't say "I'll put this on the table"
They'll say "Put this on the table" and somehow V is capable of knowing that they're not telling him to do it for them.
It’s inferred contextually. How else could we know the difference between to two and too if they’re all pronounced the same.
This game is the embodiment of "I really, really, really WANT to like this game."
That too just because you like The Witcher game series and you cant believe that CDPR let you down. It hurts.

@@devondre79 cope
9:40 I felt like coming back to this after the recent resurgence of cyberpunk. Honestly the number of gamers that have a tiny attention span has increased over the years and all it took was one Anime. The game is less buggy now but a lot of the features they promised still don't exist and yet we already have plans for DLC and people are excited. Why? The game now runs but it's still shallow. I can still do way more in GTA V and don't even get me started on RDR 2 activities. If you're reading this comment and think otherwise watch this entire video all over again to refresh your memories of the years of lies we got. Then comment. Fixing a buggy game is a plus but common guys.
nah. i agree the game isn't perfect, there's a lot missing still that i wish was there but i'm able to appreciate the writing and combat a lot more now. also maybe this is just a me thing, but unless it directly gave me an advantage or actually focused more in tandem on the core gameplay, most of those other activities are really pointless if you ask me. a quick distraction. at least the shooting range in gta upped your stats relating to it and fishing and hunting in rdr2 gave you food for either yourself or the camp. what did tennis, drinking, golfing, or smoking even impact in the long run in gta? nothing really. it's a distraction but that's it. and I think most people ended up ignoring that.
@@catb0mb The Drinking and smoking I agree were side distractions, but activities like Tennis and golfing are actually good side activities. There are even full fledged sports games made by 2k so I wouldn't consider these activities as just a distraction. GTA also had a neat Theater you could go to and I felt like with the whole Brain dance was a missed opportunity for VR headsets. They could have used that in a way like allowing us to have a Theater mode to give the illusion of a real world Brain dance. Hunting in RDR 2 was not just for the camp but also tied to an upgrade System for your pouch, carry weight etc. It also provided an enjoyable challenge if you focused on getting a perfect pelt from every animal because you had to progress through the story and unlock specific weapons before you could hunt for a perfect pelt for some animals. The strangers and freaks missions were also a neat side activity because they were mostly doing random things rather than just point and shoot. Random encounters in RDR 2 were also my favorite, it could lead to treasure hunting, helping civilians or just watching them get mauled by wild animals. Bounty hunting in each state was also nice especially bringing them in alive or just plane stealing another NPCs bounty or trying to protect your own bounty from other npc's. I also like how in GTA you were not just limited to cars and bikes to get around the map. You could steal aircrafts. I personally enjoyed just getting random planes or helicopters and skydiving to a destination.
@@Gowst99 but they still mean nothing on gameplay. it's irrelevant to everything else. and what do 2k sports games have anything to do with this? again i don't play gta to golf or play tennis. i do it to commit crimes. it feel unnecessary to commit precious developer time to something most people won't even bother with for the sake of "immersion". when I played gta v back in like 2016 for the first time, I never bothered with leisure activities. I just played the main story and side missions because those contained the gameplay the game was selling me on and what I was looking for.
in rdr2 it has more impact and relevancy to gameplay, i'll give you that. but you can still beat the entire story without donating to the camp once or without even trying to upgrade your character, so it feels near unnecessary. if the game halted story progress if the camp was low on funds, it'd make more sense but it doesn't do that.
i understand feeling miffed at the things cdpr lied about. some of it is cool and it sucks we'll never see it, such as the corrupt cop system. but a lot of it feels just unnecessary and goes down to the biggest problem 2077 has, that it tried to do too much in development rather then being focused on one thing.
what would wallrunning add? basically none of the level design is built around it. what would side leisure activities add other than a distraction? hell I don't even think I've tried hooking up with a joytoy (the only real example of this in-game) once. because it's not what the game is selling me on. the game is selling me on THE GAME. not fucking a hooker. what would the metro system add? another way to travel? why bother when we have cars and the fast travel stations? what about daily npc routines? sure it would be cool but how many average players would even notice that? my point is that all of this stuff is just unnecessary fluff at the end of the day, save for a few genuinely cool ideas. it sucks that they lied, yes. but i think the game would've been even more unfocused if they actually tried to jam all this in.
cyberpunk isn't perfect. it's still far from what I wanted it to be, which is an fps rpg on the same design level as new vegas. but as it is it's a fun open world fps with light rpg elements and REALLY good character writing (seirously, did act man even bother with panam's quests? or river ward? or even LISTEN to johnny's backstory? there's a lot to care for with those characters and i really felt invested in them.)
and here's the last thing too. might sound like i'm overselling it, but the reason people aren't coming back is because of "just one anime." it's because that "one anime" proved to be a better introduction to the world then the actual game did, and it got so many people connected on an emotional level to the world that they want to explore more of it. it's not just a show, but a fucking amazing one. and even if you haven't played 2077 or are still burned by it I highly recommend watching it.
@@catb0mb Perhaps you're missing the point here. The point is CD Projekt Red over selled and lied what Cyberpunk would be. So other things other than just linier progression come into play and it becomes difficult not to compare it to other titles that advertise what features they offer. Games like GTA or RDR do not ignore other activities in their Gameplay videos because they want to show everything that is in the game and possible to do. The more features the higher the chance of capturing a bigger audience. If you're in it only for the linier progression, then more power to you. For others like me, we prefer to experience the full package as "advertised".What CD Projekt advertised would I guess be adequate to someone just looking to progress the story mission and ignore everything else. Which is what they should have advertised instead of baiting many people, who appreciate to have other things to do other than just getting from point A to point B and finish the story, into buying their game. If they just did that most people would have just been annoyed by the bugs not about lack of features or cut content.
And i have watched the Anime. As for Cyberpunk, i keep updating it because I really hope it will get to a point were I can feel some for of satisfaction. The main quest will never be updated to have branching out comes as advertised, that's too much work for them. The only hope is in the DLC but I have a feeling it will also just be as linier without any consequences to who you keep alive or kill.
@@Gowst99 because its not a gta clone it dosent have to be like them imo CP is better than all rockstar games maybe except rdr2 witcher 3 dont have any thing to do outside missions except gwent and still no one say a word about it

Games stale as fuck when you compare it to destiny 2,doom, red dead 2 or any other game with a company who knows how to implement good gunplay.
@@adincrane I like red dead more than cyberpunk but red dead has the most average gameplay
Because of the state the game released in I nearly missed it out completely. I was very glad I tried it out later and at least in my opinion the game is a nine out of ten right now and would defenitely place in my top twenty. It is still behind witcher 3 but not this much removed. I am not a regular shooter player though and came more for the immersion, the story and the characters.
What pissed me off was that the cops were actively teleporting into pacifica, a place without police when I did a crime
According to the devs, the police was added in the game last minute T_T
How the hell basically a wanted feature was added in last. The GTA or Red dead series have extremely good wanted level because the devs take time to make them feel like you are being wanted and polices are chasing you. While in Cyberpunk it feel like you gonna die no matter what, the police just spawn at your location at least add a teleportation effects if you want to do that.
@@phuct4980 Gta 5 has the best wanted system out of them all. Red dead is good but it's still very unrealistic. The cops know where you are at all times, and know who you are no matter what you wear. I get out of the red circle and hide in a cave and they still find me. Same with the bounty hunters
@@thetoyodacar2264 yup the point i trying to convey is the wanted level need to be developed first because it goes hand in hand with what your characters do.

The first thing that crossed my mind
But that is Keanu Reeves he is an actor...omg....
Alot of the criticism this game gets wouldn't have happened if it was marketed differently, this game isn't about being who you want to be, it's about being V, it doesn't matter what guns you have or what clothes you wear, you're still V, the game should've been marketed around V as a character rather than "someone the player customizes" cus this is more about V's story than it is a story the player makes.
It was initially going to be that and then Keanu got involved and it became much more story driven, less about just being 'in the world of Cyberpunk". The biggest mistake was completely changing the games focus halfway thru development.
It chose this unhappy medium where you don’t have enough freedom to truly make it feel like your own story, with the biggest problem being that you can’t really give yourself much of a motivation, but also not fleshing out V as their own character enough to make them not feel like just a vessel for the player. It simultaneously makes V as an individual character separate from the player weaker, but also makes them fail as a character that the player uses as a vessel to express themselves, like how you can characterize the kind of person that Courier Six is in New Vegas or Hell, how you can even characterize Link in BotW in little ways even if your dialogue options are fairly limited. It felt like there was a disconnect between the way that I chose to act and the way that V acted without my control, which made my decisions feel like they meant less. They tried to have their cake and eat it too, and they ended up dropping it on the floor. In fact, this design philosophy of trying to do contrasting things is echoed throughout the entire game’s design. It feels like, in an effort to market this game to as many people as possible, they tried to do so many different things and none of them get fleshed out enough to work very well but still conflict with each other.
V is boring af imo but the game still being glitchy and busted after this long is the worst part. I couldn't enjoy V if I tried and I did.
as is witcher about being geralt. most RPGs are about being a character ya know. in RDR2 you're arthur... in gta5 you're always one of the 3 main dudes... in final fantasy you're cloud, squall or whoever... its only when you go online you slip out of those characters...
Good point. However I think if it was, more people would be saying what act man says about it only being in first person.
I don’t think it’s a coincidence I abandoned the game right after Jackies death. The game just felt boring after that which is strange given how hooked I was on the story.
Fr I just came back after a year and a half and the game was still boring just not glitchy anymore
its because they rewrote the game story,the scene where jackie dies was meant to be the ending.

Read Dead Redemption allowed you to do the following interactions with its far better AI; race horses, tame horses, duel, shooting competitions, blackjack, liar's dice, horseshoes, bounty hunt, etc.
in 2010...
Reading the comments in their most recent dlc trailer, I felt like I’m crazy and was playing a completely different game. It’s full of “this game has one of the best open worlds” “lore is amazing” “story is so good”.
I played it the past week on PS5 after all the praise it has been getting lately “it’s fixed now! It’s amazing! There was this good big patch!” And let me tell you, it’s still so full of bugs, both visual and gameplay, I even had a game breaking bug in a main mission that made the game crash multiple times and I was stuck on it for a while. The world couldn’t feel more dead and bland, it’s big and pretty but at the same time it feels lifeless. I hated most of the characters, Johnny especially, only decent characters were Jackie and Takemura. The main character V is unlikable, the dialogue is just weird no real people talk like that. And most of all what’s the point of customizing your own character and not being able to see them?? I felt like only the first 6 hours (trial hours) were actually good, after that it just gets boring and worse.
I just played through in my series S for the first time and I loved it still encountered some bugs but I had a blast
I played on Series S and had my playthrough halted by a game-breaking phone bug. Any time an NPC calls me, I'm unable to answer. The game treats me as if I'm still in the call. I'm unable to use vendors, fast travel, or save my game. I've reloaded a previous save, but it inevitably happens again. "Fixed" my ass. . .
Deus Ex has better lore and story too.
@@dohnjoe9211 damn that sucks sorry to hear my dude. I can only speak to my experience but I’m really enjoying the game
When it comes to bugs in gaming that’s just something you’re gonna have to deal with, I mean if you look at MW2 beta it was still buggy and yet you know for a fact that once it’s partially fixed everyone will still play it, as if glitches didn’t exist.
Night city is meant Feel like a lifeless, dead, and bland experience due to crimes, cyber psychosis and cops not given a care about civilians, and of course arasaka. like what did you expect society to come out as, if it had these kinds of experience😂
And Johnny was meant to be an annoying character they didn’t care about anybody else around them since people saw him as a crazy individual that hated Arasaka for no reason, So of course he felt lonely in his own lane and started to be fake around his friends and using people for destruction, Since he was the only witness that saw the horrifying management inside the Operation of Arasaka. Top tier character in my opinion.
The reason why the game itself made you customize your own character it’s because they wanted you to feel as if your literally inside the game, You’re the character or the legend or your the villain. Your choice, Yeah it sucks that you couldn’t see your characters Face That much but at the same time just like in real life, you barely see yourself, Like a lot of people are insecure looking at themselves in a mirror or even taking a picture. You just wake up go to work get back home eat and sleep, Just like real life.
Don’t know what kind of dialogue is weird for V but if you’re talking about the interactions with Panam. obviously every relationships in general are going to be cringe that’s how close relationships is, when you focus yourself being Mr perfect all the time, it just makes you look boring and uninspired to think outside the box. so of course in a loving relationship you’re going to have to be corny. Outside of that once again the city is a heartless place so everyone you meet in night city, there personalities will either be dirty, slow or lazy.
I can’t think of anything else that makes cyberpunk really bad honestly even the act man video is poorly misleading.
Cyberpunk is the best story, best game ever made, I’d rather take games That take eight years over waiting two years for a call of duty game or any that’s always going to be the same thing.

I know right. To understand a characters motivations for a sub plot you have to interact with them through dialogue options. The game will rarely tell you a characters motives without having to go the extra mile of talking to them and I like it because it seems so much more real then forced dialogue.

The sad thing is a lot of the world building Act Man is complimenting is nothing to do with CD Projeckt Red. It's all lifted directly from the TTRPG the game is based on. All that creativity came from the writers of the setting and the books that make up the TTRPG not CD Projeckt Red.
Somehow I think translating a table top rpg world into an actual open world with is a humongous undertaking. Are you really suggesting the entirety of night city is so unoriginal that it is based on the little amount of 2D world building of 1988's Cyberpunk? I'm sorry but thats bullshit. This is like suggesting that the world building of baldur's gate 3 should never be credited to anything that Larian ever did because after all it was adapted from DnD. Do not for a second think that a 3D open world game world can steal world building tactics from a 2D ttrpg. Its ridiculous to suggest that. This isn't Lord of THe Rings that every little piece of world building required was available on hand in the books. It is an open world video game. The infrastructure of Night City is so detailed and well made that the ttrpg would have to have had every little minute detail mentioned with a blueprint for you to call cdpr talentless in their world design.
@@killingjoker797 I'm talking about the world building, the lore of the game world. All the gangs, the corporations and the slang are all from the ttrpg. It has also expanded and grown a Hell of a lot since 1988 given the dozens of source books. To use your analogy it's like crediting Larian with the Pantheon and geography of the Sword Coast.
@iank472 Hmmmm fair fair. But still they took all tht and did something new with it. Told a new story and credit must be given for faithful adaptation. But I still think they must be given credit for quite a bit of it. Creating a world like that requires serious effort and dedication to the source3 material. The places where world building is innovated is done perfectly and can't be done without a deep understanding of the original source material. Also it is filled with compelling characters that weren't adapted from the og srce mateial.
@@killingjoker797 oh 100%! The characters and stories are what made me play through the entire game even with the technical issues and problems. It was also really awesome to see all the source material being woven in. Unfortunately Act Man didn't seem to realise a lot of what he was praising was from the source material like the gangs and corporations backgrounds and complex interactions with each other. The story and characters on the other hand are completely original and deserve full credit to CD Projeckt Red.
@@iank472 Uk what sir? lets just agree that this is a fun game and a compelling narrative experience thanks to the joint efforts of Cyberpunk 1988, cdpr themselves and works such as Gibson's Neuromancer. Oh and all who came up with that fire music.
Jesus. It sounds like Cyberpunk's all flash and no bang. I'm writing a manga and if there's one thing I hate, it's a lack of depth. I want things to have personality and individuality. See, if I was writing Cyberpunk as a more linear game, I'd make V this pissed off outcast who wants to make a name for himself after spending all his life in the gutter until his twenties. And when he enters Night City, believing the legends that the city is where dreams come true, he arrives and becomes a cold and famous criminal.
His desperation to become remembered as something is essentially taking over his decency as a person, ignoring the shit that Arasaka or the gangs have done all to gain favour and reputation but keeps going as he feels like he's done nothing. But during the heist for the chip, Jackie's death and Johnny's arrival makes life start hitting him with a stick.
His fear of Johnny taking him over, his fear of being forgotten and Adam Smasher hunting him like Mr X begin pushing him to his limits, shoves him in a corner and start questioning who V is and what he wants to be. Another is Johnny. Johnny is the best and worst parts of V. He's a selfish asshole who wanted to forget his shitty past in music and debauchery but the loss of his girlfriend and the shit Arasaka has done reminds him of the shit the US government and thus, makes him desperate to take them down and thus end the nightmares of Night City. But he went down a dark path and it made him essentially a well intentioned extremist.
The dynamic between them should've been the narrative focus. V is selfish and only wants to be remembered because of a lower past and Johnny wants to take him over due to his hatred of V's selfish attitude and his seeming lack of Jackie's death hitting him pisses him off. But as the two try to escape Adam Smasher, V starts questioning his views.
For the first, I dunno, third or half of the game focuses on V on the run trying to escape Smasher and Johnny and the two start changing from a bitter battle for control to an almost symbiotic bromance. Johnny's goals and vision start awakening V's altruistic side and Johnny starts growing on V and becomes less radical and more reluctant to take over. Eventually, the two decide to take down Arasaka so Johnny can get a body that isn't V's.
They go on these exciting missions to take down Arasaka. It could involve space missions to destroy their control of the internet, a bomb to just nuke the company or raise a revolution from the ground up by taking over the gangs one by one. They could have hover car chases, prison breaks or bank heists.
And the campaign against Arasaka starts, V becomes less focused on saving himself and becomes more focused on saving the city with Johnny becoming a sort of mentor for him. Eventually, Arasaka could be pushed to the limit and start shoving martial law upon the city and V and Johnny have to take down the city with some mission like ME2's suicide mission finale. the characters you've met up throughout the game with the biggest connections to you join up and help but depending on your choices, could die or live. Eventually, when V and Johnny reach the office of the CEO, the bad guy could set up a bomb to prevent losing Arasaka and the building begins exploding while V and Johnny have this epic final battle against Adam Smasher.
Eventually, you'll reach the end but it'll be multi ending. They all end with V or Johnny in charge of Night City and only one ends with them both. V could become a new crime boss, Johnny takes over and becomes a new musician or if their relationship is at essentially being besties, Johnny will have learned how to erase his own code and save V or V could just let him take over. That choice will be either saving V or Johnny or depending on your choices, Johnny will leave V and have a new body and they'll both have the goal of going out and using the power they now have to change the world for the better.
But that's how I'd do it.
Can't believe you got Keanu to reprise his role
I think the Act Man has a bit more acting than Keanu.
Does an actor ever stop acting?
I can't believe we f*cked
CDPR fell to the same trap that every big studio falls in eventually: they tried to create something way too big and lost track of the goal.
I think all the story needed was to make a simple story of V getting to the top in Night City; it's simple enough in order to give players many choices and actually start at a different points through their life paths. The current Black Mirror plotline is definitely a doozy, too complex/artsy-fartsy, and heavily narrow down choices.
I know how bad the story is when they tried so hard to sell Johnny as the hero, and how siding with Arasaka would be the worst ending right after literally killing yourself that CDPR just tries so hard to show you which choices are "Right" and "Wrong" from their narrative instead of yours.

@@traiforse5777 Johnny isn’t a hero he’s just a terrorist that got a lot of people killed. The lore in the vg is there enough to explain that but the table top and the books Johnny is no hero or even anti hero.

The fact that he’s now Keanu Johnny nmemonic neo the one matrix reeves makes him out to be a hero cause people wanna like Keanu but he’s just the actor playing a character that was never written to be a hero.
Cyberpunk even after the fixes and updates still feels like a Ubisoft open world trying desperately to be a Bethesda RPG. The world and lore that the in game universe has is amazing, some of the best in video games but is played out through a 6/10 game, and they only JUST added transmog
Perhaps... but perhaps F Ubisoft open worlds and F Bethesda RPGs.
Cyberpunk's spirit is more akin to the first Mass Effect and Arkane's Prey splashed in the head with a huge dose of Mass Effect Andromeda's tragedy.

Ignoring the bugs, Cyberpunk still has horrible physics, boring gameplay especially at higher levels, a boring city with really nothing to do besides missions (In GTA V, there were tons of other activities you could do), a true lack of build diversity (GTA had no builds, just increase your stats. Cyberpunk has 2 builds (Tech and Hacking), everything else is just a supplement. This game is empty and for the most part, boring. Fixing the bugs won't help it.

I agree after the 6 hour mark and the 2 minute montage of V and Jackie honestly pissed me off.. like uhh yeah this cutscene with Jackie looks crazy and intense, you I wish this was actually gameplay instead of a FUCKING cutscene.......
I gave this game another chance when phantom liberty came out. I 100% the game and almost failed out of school because of it. It’s not perfect but I ran into about 4 or 5 bugs and none of them were game breaking. The biggest one was 2 or 3 times I couldn’t pick up an item to complete a quest but all I had to do was restart the game and it worked. Annoying but wasn’t often. You should give it another shot. I played 160+ hours had a blast and I wish I had more to play because there isn’t anything like it.
I honestly don't get why they only used Jackie so sparingly in the game. He's easily the most compelling companion and character, he has this really rich hinted-at backstory and then they don't even explore it.
The whole game feels like it sets up so much promise and then just throws it in a dumpster.
I hate the montage in the game, I liked Jackie, but we only did like 2 missions with him, if the montage was actual missions meeting his mom and we did like 6 missions with him when he died it would have been more emotional and a better instead I'm just like damn that sucks he died
Honestly, just trying to make sure the video wasnt too long. You are absolutely right
I don't mind that he died. I mind that he died so quickly. It would have hurt a lot more if you had gone on through the game and closer to the end he dies-maybe on the last mission into Arasaka building. But, per the usual these days, they give you a little and take away everything.

38:10, what would have been cool of Johnny’s motivation wasn’t that he had one, that he was just a violent angry dog that loved spreading chaos just for the fun of it because he lacked purpose and wanted to be remembered anything but a nobody, and by the end he reflects on who he was and comes to terms with the monster he and what he exactly is demented for, that would have been unique, but they didn’t to that, his motivation is way to external to be anything believable, him wanting to destroy the corps out of spite because “oh the are destroying the world” isn’t enough and a great character like Johnny deserved more then what he was given
I'm surprised more people don't know that tons of developers left CDPR after The Witcher 3, and most of them said the reason they left was because of incompetent management (poor communication, unreasonable crunch periods, all that fun stuff). That's not even getting into how Witcher 3 had its own miniature controversy over downgraded graphics and how buggy the game was at release. Think most people who idolized CDPR after Witcher 3 don't realize that it was only a great game through dogged determination from a poorly supported, overworked and under appreciated dev team that moved onto greener pastures after that game's release.

What you get, when you cross an amazing development team with a leadership that over promises and then abandons it and treats it like trash!
I'll tell you what you get! You get what you fucking deserve!

The video 'Its all QAs fault' the gaming community 'Did, did you just try to throw your QA department under a bus?!'
Cyberpunk 2077 actually was awesome, it was just launched horrible.
Patching this Game in 2023 with 50GB for the PS4 made it one of the best experiences I ever had !
Its extremly sad how this nightmare of a release and promotion ruined the games reputation completly !
The fact that very high amount of ambient sounds and unnecessary visual effects seriously headache.
Their "apology" didn't even mention the missing features and shit, just the bugs and performance. Honestly CDPR are lucky the game is buggy as it is, because then no one notices the missing features, the non existent RPG and story mechanics and the misleading marketing because of how bad the bugs are. The fact the game isn't even in the SAME GENRE as what was advertised is disappointing. Your "life path" doesn't matter past 20 minutes into the game, none of your choices matter until the very end of the game. Dialogue options don't matter most of the time and they're more similar to Fallout 4's crappy dialogue system than anything else
It’s also sad that the story isn’t about V, it’s about Keanu Ree- I mean Johnny Silverhand
Oh, they're worse than Fallout 4. Fallout 4, terrible as that dialogue system may have been, at least pretended to have actual options. CP doesn't even do that.
it wasn't apology mate, it was just bullshit PR move try make/save face, CEO was blowing smoke out of his ass, they just didn't care it was please share holders not customers, but they got sued by law firms by share holders as well, way to go idiots should just delayed the game longer
And they lied in their apology about...lying to people. 😂
@@maciejduda5257 idk man, fallout 4s dialog is much much worse than cyberpunks. At least cyberpunks is well written, and I’d take well written over having 4 options that literally say the same line any day.
They change their twitter bio from "cyberpunk role-playing game", to "open world action adventure" idk why but that makes me angry the most
false avertising: *is illegal*
mobile ads: *sweating*
I can't believe people can fall for those mobile ads, they are so bad it's obvious :'D
@@MolkoKillStyle is usually kid falling for those. And you're able to tend him get away cuz most of those games are technically or usually free to play. Noodle some of them may be pay-to-win, pay-to-win is in part of false advertising. In other words they wouldn't really get in trouble so much unless people actually again bought something and didn't get what they paid for. The only reason why most mobile games Donkey caught with the false advertising pink. Never mind that there are so many out there, and never mind the fact that some of them might be made by Foreign creators who don't even live in the states and may have different advertisement laws.
and some games out there some might find decent for their play style organs that might have actually been decent games and could have gotten better had more work was put into them. But the developers don't care to do so and just try to make money off of it in any way possible even if it's just shoving an ad in your face for every time you tap the screen.
people seeing only bad apps use the tactic, even the good ones are starting to use this tactic. Even good games made by good developers on the Google Play is starting to use bulshit tactics from shoving ads in your face to making misleading advertisements.
@@MolkoKillStyle one example of a good game that was fine and didn't need to lie about its mechanics or its gameplay, war machines on Google Play Android. It was a pretty good game at the time I started playing it. I'm pretty sure it still is. I haven't played in a while so I'm not 100% sure. But they started coming out with ads right before I stop playing that that Ward completely lying about the type of game it was or at least it's gameplay style or mechanics whatever the heck. And it didn't make sense why they would lie and try to mislead people when they can easily drop people in with the truth. A third-person multiplayer based War robots game. They're advertising said they were ready had and we're honest were completely five. Then they just started bullshiting people out of nowhere. And it did and it didn't make any sense because this was a good game made by decent Developers.
@@HK47_115 Mobile games are made to be exploitable tho
@@HK47_115 This happens quite often in mobile games actually. The publisher just contracts an ad company and doesn't care what the ad company makes.
"You were created by the corpo rats"
This. And it's not even very good at being rebellious because everything is such a strawman. Cyberpunk 2077 doesn't wanna actually say anything, because that'd be too risky for such a massive *corpo* project.
Hello from 2 years later. It's still broken. It's better but still broken.
I wished we could've explore Jackie and V's adventures together instead of rushing the time.
Thats the first DLC. A deep dive into that half baked Rocky montage.
Totally agree. If the whole game would have been just about Jackie and V becoming famous gangsters in Night City, it would have been more focused, interesting and people would have had something to care about.
THIS.
Loved Jackie...and also loved Misty. Would have liked to have several (more) jobs with them in some way.
Hell, loosing Jackie was SUCH a waste. >_

You know those games that you launch when youre bored of the game you were playing, and halfway trough the loading screen youre like “ah nevermind fuck that”. Yeh thats cyberpunk for me.
Over a year later and I can’t get into character creation without CP77 crashing.
Dude no matter what video I watch, it's all fuckin gold😂 never stop
“Welcome to the next generation of open world adventure”
*laughs in GTA San Andreas*
I just want to play San Andreas for the first time again
That’s the issue, it’s nothing like GTA so stop comparing. Compare it to TW3, also an open world adventure RPG.
@@Quazzi TW3 is the GTA San Andreas of Open World RPGs
@@Quazzi well CDPR said that the game would be as refined as RDR2, and it surely isnt
@@TheLonelyGamer5 And Cyberpunk is better in every single area.
Bethesda: "we're concerned hat cyberpunk 2077 maybe replicating the experience that fallout 76 is known for."
Never let the meme die
Lmao. Bethesda getting jealous
Ironic because 76 (in its current state) literally is better then cyberpunk in every way
Not as buggy as before, role-playing that actually makes an impact, combat that's fun, actual character customization
Cyberpunk 2076
And Fallout 77
@@catb0mb and it runs surprisingly well on last gen consoles
No blurry resolution or 5 FPS on ps4
The only fun I had while playing this game was when you first play as Johny silverhand. After experiencing that one mission and then going back to the rest I gave up on cyberpunk
Even with all the patches, the story is still boring. The combat is boring and the story falls short. They made this amazing world and they don’t even use most of the shit. Seriously they made all these interesting factions and barely even use them.
When you realize that your character is the only one driving a bike in the whole game...
Holy shit I just realized this 😂😂😂😂
…wait…no I thought I saw gangs…wait a minute…WAIT A MINUTE!!!
It's the same with the first watch_dogs
The Ego reviewer mentioned that there were no police car chases in the launch version!!!
honestly, whenever I look at Johnny, all I see is Critikal
Oh my god me too😂
Even some of his cornier lines have this weird monotone that truly sounds so penguinz0
Welp I won't unsee that
@@TheMelonFarmers123 fucking true
Personally, i think Cyberpunk should have been 3rd person like Witcher. Whats the point of character customisation if you cant even see your own character anyway? Never understood that in first person shooters. But yeah, Cyberpunk is like 10% of what it should have been. Sad
