Cyberpunk 2077 Grieving Thread

Singleplayer. Either souls style games, hack and slash, fallout/skyrim RPG styled games. I despise multiplayer games.

-You could buy Hades which is a great rogue-like hack and slash. The game is replayable and very decently priced. The art direction and voice work/music are on point.
-You might enjoy salt and sanctuary too which is a souls like in 2d. I enjoyed it quite a lot.

Played about 4 hours last night on PC. Experienced 1 game breaking glitch
Supposed to get a keycard off a officer in a hotel, officer vibrated so hard he flew out of the level and I was forced to restart from auto save.

Other then that its been nothing but Skyrim level jank. Characters holding items they shouldn't, like using a gun as an ipad and people skating around. Audio seems weird, main character cant be heard, people outside my car sound like they are inside that kind of thing.

Also the game is much uglier then I thought it would be, everything looks strange and I cant quite put my finger on why. Hair is atrocious and the characters just look off. I am on a 2060 and a 8th gen i7 with 16gb of ram at 1080p, mostly 40-60 fps.

I am having fun though, the world is well built and I am excited to dive back in today. Bugginess aside it probably still wouldnt be my GOTY, but I am happy to spend the time in it.
 
I dunno i've loved the game so far. Eh quick review what the hell

Pros: -Controls are smooth as hell
-alot of little attention to detail such as blowing portions of faces off with firearms instead of decapitation like alot of games do
-No Sjw shit so far. its just put in to make the future city seem more futuristic, obviously progressives will have gained ground by 2077
-Each weapon carrys "weight" and actually feels like you're hitting something instead of firing nerf darts and swinging pool noodles like alot of games do today
-Soundtrack is pretty ballin
-You can kill a majority of NPCS, obviously you shouldnt be able kill main story essential npcs
-theres no gate to missions, you find a mission? you can do it, no prereqs to do so
-The more amusing bugs are solid this time around, such as the genitals outside of clothing one, that one cracked me the fuck up for a solid minute, you know what they say, suns out? guns out.
-You can call Story npcs on the phone at any time for advice or questions related to lore
-You gain exp for some very minor things in each catagory which feels nice that if i fell a solid 10 feet and got away scott free, i get 22 athletics exp
-its fun to roam the city instead of it just being a piece of scenery, you can interact with almost everything.
-You can destroy objects piece by piece, i remember slicing a plastic chair apart into several pieces with several clean cuts based on where i hit it
-It's not got copyrighted shit plastered everywhere so its easy to stream and record
-Theres a fucking burrito vending machine in your apartment

Cons:
-The highest difficulty is bullet sponge mode, no more detail needed thats self explanitory
-mild melt in densely packed areas, lose a few frames, but nothing substancial
-Dodging is volitile, it will happen alot when you dont want it too
-Cars densely pack everywhere in certain parts of the city so driving can be a mild pain
-unarmed fighting stance animation looks a little weird, i dont hate this, just would have done it different
-Parkour is lacking in total moves but whats there is well done.
-Few clothing options the first 2 hours
-you get more bullets than you'll ever need no reason to buy ammo

In Response to controversy:
Eh i'm too exhausted to give a fuck anymore and theres nothing that stood out so thats good

This is not the second coming of Gamer Jesus, its just a good game that i personally reccommend.
 
There's something seriously fucky going on with GPUs right now. You'd think it was just a typical "paper launch," but there are reports that Nvidia shipped a fuckton of their new 3xxx GPUs to miners. No idea if AMD did the same thing, but I can't find any stock of their new cards either. Do the scalper shitheads even have any to scalp or have they come up dry as well?

The way things have been this year with GPUs, I'm not even remotely confident there will be an adequate supply of them next year at all either.
Bit Coin ruined everything.
 
I think part of the disconnect comes from the whole "I'm gonna make a name for myself" bit. Cyberpunk really isn't about fame and fortune. Its this weird sort of mix between transhumanism, philosophy and dystopia. The world always feels like its on the brink of collapse. All these new and beautiful technologies didn't make life better, it didn't solve our problems. The richer you get, the worse you are.

Yes, it has a look about it. But there's really no feeling behind it. Its way too GTA. Cyberpunk protagonists also tend to be tortured in some way, lost themselves and struggling against society. The Major is doubting just how human she really is. Deckard has the same crisis. What makes a person a person? Is what he doing right? Is HE what he is hunting? V doesn't really have these sort of existential dilemmas. Even with Johnny, the game isn't asking what's alive and what's dead? In this game where an entire person can be put on a chip, what is a soul? Shit like that, things RPGs in general ask.
Yeah, from what I'm hearing about the plot it doesn't seem to lean enough into the typical musings of the cyberpunk genre that makes it so appealing to people. Getting the look of a cyberpunk world means nothing if you don't bother putting in any of the common themes because in most cases those themes are what give the cyberpunk world its unique feel.

Hell, the anime Texhnolyze doesn't use the standard look of cyberpunk for it's world with the neon, but the themes it deals with most definitely make it a cyberpunk series in my mind. For example, one of its key themes is around what happens when humans can no longer evolve further as a species and reaches its natural extinction point. The protagonist for the series is also great even if he speaks about as much as a standard video game self interest because of internal conflict.

Reminds me of Jimmy Fallon or Jimmy Kimmel, both blur together.
 
i was getting about 84 fps average with everything cranked last night. I only have an hour in this though, will play a little more tonight to see how I feel.

Yes, as a matter of fact extremely few people understand time zones.
I think this is the best part of the entire list-
some Muslim countries will exit DST time, and then re-enter DST once Ramadan ends. It makes sunset (the time to end your fast) arrive faster
I love when hyper religious types rules lawyer with god.
