This game has done so much for me, but thats personal bias.

Cyberpunk 2077 launched as a monument to everything wrong with game development, rushed, buggy, ugly, just mechanically broken. It was called every name in the book, cashgrab, garbage, etc.

However, these devs show so much love for this game, its incredible. The past 4 years have been spent making the game better day in and day out. Polishing and refining their original vision for the world of Night city.

What we have today is a spectacular single player experience, an incredible story with heavy themes. With great gameplay to boot. Gunplay is satisfying, progression feels real and organic; at no point do you ever feel over or underpowered. The experience just feels balanced. This game is genuinely what i consider to be the best Single player game of all time.

Probably my favorite game ever, Cyberpunk is a game I'll always be coming back to. This game means a lot to me, and has seen me through some rough times. The world is comforting in a way, even though the oppressive atmosphere of the Corporation ran world is weighing down everything. Much like real life, you find comfort in the people you meet along the way. These characters are written so well that it's impossible not to resonate with at least a few, in their beliefs or struggles. How they view the world and how they wish the world were different. It can sometimes be very heavy stuff, this game holds no punches.

Immersion is king. No game matches the feeling driving in Night CIty listening to the radio taking in the vibe. Night City is the most well crafted City in any game, period. The sense of scale is mind boggling, and whether you're walking among the skyscrapers or the skyline is just on the horizon the artistic design and scale is nothing short of a masterpiece in itself. Not one part of the map feels the same, and there will always be new things around the corner each playthrough.

The gunplay is not often talked about enough, and I think that's a shame. I think Cyberpunk has some of the richest and most satisfying shooting in any first person shooter recently. Cyberpunk gives you the tools and the variety to become an unstoppable killing machine, but you have to put yourself together. The combinations in gun types and projectile types mixed with melee weapons, mixed with the plethora of absolutely ridiculous movement abilities on top of the dozens of overpowered cyberware that's been recently added to the game it's no wonder you're a legend in the city. Guns all have many different reload animations, which I personally love when a FPS has this. Seeing the same reload animation an entire game kills my immersion.

The soundtrack is one of my favorites, both the score and most of the radio. There are some really good songs that are guaranteed to raise your adrenaline given you've got the volume up, and you should. The sound design is superb, as an audiophile I can't NOT have this game's volume maxed out. Some of the music will no doubt ruin your accuracy from all the head bobbing, especially in the Phantom Liberty expansion.

The amount of support this game has gotten post release is impressive, and I'm not including getting the game up to an acceptable point. The game shouldn't have released on past gen consoles, and there were a lot of issues I had with the game immersion wise that have been nearly fixed entirely. There's some bugs here and there but it's not going to ruin your experience anymore. This game is a feat. With how much is packed into this relatively small space, Night City, making it the most dense urban environment in games I understand that bugs will happen.

This game is beautiful, not just visually but in what I've taken from it. This story and especially Phantom Liberty have hit me so hard it'll stick with me for forever. And with how varied the gameplay can be, with how many different endings there are and an almost unlimited modding platform Cyberpunk 2077 isn't leaving my PC anytime soon.

Rating: 9.5/10 (Masterpiece)
Cyberpunk 2077 has achieved one of the greatest redemption arcs in gaming history. It’s a stunning, immersive RPG that delivers on almost every level—but for me, it’s still missing that elusive something to make it a perfect 10.
What I Loved:
Night City is Unmatched:
Night City is the real star of the show. It’s vibrant, chaotic, and alive in a way few game worlds manage to achieve. From the neon-lit alleys of Japantown to the corporate opulence of City Center, every district is meticulously crafted. With improved AI, denser crowds, and enhanced environmental interactions since launch, the city finally feels like the bustling dystopia it was always meant to be.
Deep, Immersive RPG Gameplay:
Cyberpunk 2077 offers incredible freedom in how you approach the game. Whether you prefer hacking your way through systems, stealthily taking down enemies, or going in guns blazing, the gameplay accommodates multiple playstyles. The new updates and DLC bring even more depth to the combat and skill trees, making character builds more engaging than ever.
Phantom Liberty DLC - A Game-Changer:
The Phantom Liberty DLC is not just an expansion—it’s a revitalization. Set in Dogtown, a gritty new district of Night City, it introduces a tense spy-thriller storyline packed with twists, political intrigue, and moral dilemmas. Idris Elba’s performance as Solomon Reed is phenomenal, adding even more gravitas to the stellar voice acting. The DLC also brings significant improvements to the base game, like overhauled perk systems, vehicle combat, and more engaging side quests.
Memorable Characters and Storytelling:
Cyberpunk 2077’s story is rich and emotionally impactful. V and Johnny Silverhand (masterfully voiced by Keanu Reeves) have one of the most compelling dynamics I’ve seen in a game. The game masterfully weaves personal struggles with larger existential questions about identity and humanity. The Phantom Liberty storyline adds even more layers to this narrative brilliance.
Technical Redemption:
At launch, the game was plagued with bugs and performance issues, but it’s now in a state that lives up to its potential. CD Projekt Red has gone above and beyond to address the criticisms, making this one of the best post-launch redemption stories in gaming history.
What’s Still Missing:
Lack of True Player Agency:
As much as the game emphasizes choice, the main narrative often funnels you toward specific outcomes. While there are different endings, your decisions throughout the game don’t always feel as impactful as they could be.
A Sense of Longevity:
While the open world is packed with detail, it sometimes feels like a stage rather than a truly living world. Interactions with NPCs and side activities, though improved, still lack the depth to make Night City feel as reactive as it looks.
Missing That "Perfect 10" Factor:
For all its brilliance, the game still feels like it’s just short of perfection. Maybe it’s the lack of a revolutionary mechanic that changes the genre, or maybe it’s the way some gameplay elements (like crafting or economy systems) feel secondary. It’s hard to pinpoint, but there’s something intangible that stops it from being the definitive RPG experience.
Overall Thoughts:
Cyberpunk 2077 is no longer a cautionary tale—it’s a triumph. The Phantom Liberty DLC and continuous updates have elevated the game to masterpiece status, delivering one of the most immersive RPGs of this generation. The world-building, storytelling, and gameplay systems come together in a way that few games manage. However, as polished and engaging as it is, there’s still something missing—a spark or a layer of depth that could make it truly flawless.
Pros:
Night City is a stunning, immersive open world.
Deep, versatile gameplay with incredible build options.
Masterful storytelling and memorable characters.
Phantom Liberty adds an exceptional new storyline and gameplay features.
A technical redemption that few games have pulled off.
Cons:
Main narrative choices don’t always feel impactful.
Some open-world interactions still feel surface-level.
Missing an ineffable "wow" factor to make it a perfect 10.
Recommendation:
Cyberpunk 2077 is a must-play, especially in its current state. Whether you’re a fan of immersive worlds, gripping narratives, or deep RPG systems, it delivers on almost every front. The Phantom Liberty DLC is the cherry on top of an already incredible experience. It’s not just a game—it’s a world you’ll want to lose yourself in.

Never played the game during it's release. Started to get into it once a-lot of the issues were fixed. I can say the gameplay is definitely top-notch with the different amounts of variety included. The story is very well written and I enjoyed every conversation I had with Johnny.
Side quest didn't feel boring, they had their own story within each-other so it didn't feel like your usual fetching quest to kill enemies and rinse and repeat.
A-lot of characters felt fleshed out and felt genuine. Also, Having everything maxed out with path-tracing. This game looks unreal. ONE of the BEST looking games ever.
I will say what I didn't really like was that we have "3" story lines but they didn't feel any different from each-other aside from special dialogue options during certain moments of the game.
I'll give the game a 9/10.

This is, quite simply, one of the best games ever made. Full stop.

The combat is amazing. The story is top notch. The art direction is stunning. The VAs are all top notch, and the forced first person perspective means you LIVE as V. Whatever you have heard about the problems this game launched with, they have been fixed and oh so much more.
