    To be honest, after the cyberpunk launch, I lost a little faith in cdpr. But seeing what they’re doing now, and having heard how good of a game cyberpunk has become. I might just buy cyberpunk next time it goes on sale

      You should. I bought the whole thing on sale for $33, but I would have gladly paid full price, glitches and all. I just vibed with the entire story, DLC included. 160 hours of game play, most of it just exploring or driving around. Partly because I didn’t want the story and the game to end. I knew it was going to be bittersweet, although I didn’t exactly know how, for both the DLC and the main story. I know there are multiple endings, but I think I got the best you could get for the DLC and the main game, and for me those are the only endings that exist. ❤️

      I played through on release, no regrets. It is definitely a much more polished experience how though, would recommend! Runs great too.

      • I played it at release too, and the only two bugs I can remember was a guy popping in and t-posing across the room straight out a wall in the Tom’s Diner scene with Takamura and then one of the locations that had a side mission never opened up properly my first run through which prevented me getting an achievment for 100%ing all the missions the first time through.

        Oh well, the speed boost glitch too. But that was a useful and fun one so it doesn’t count (and I am mad they fixed it).

        I actually encounter more bugs of all kinds now, after all the updates and changes. Like cars falling from the sky randomly, NPCs models bugging out, scripts not firing properly, and a lot of annoyances trying to drive vehicles.

      Witcher 2 and 3 launched as messes too, not as bad as Cyberpunk 2077 (that’s probably the worst triple A launch ever).

      I brought it day 1 on PS4 (it didn’t even release on the PS5 for a while after) and played it for like 2 days straight and barely looked online. I came to my own conclusion that it was awful and felt good knowing I wasnt alone once I did look. Sony then refunded everyone and I took it. Then sometime later that year or maybe the year after when it was at its lowest it was also selling for basically nothing and swooped it up for $5 bucks on PC. I didnt touch it for years and think I played it finally once it dropped the last big update which may have been 2024? It was a great game at this point and fully worth a regular price.

      As for the Witcher 3 it was always a great game and as far as I saw they did everything right for that game. Its probably a top 3 all time game for me since idk if I ever felt so emmerssed into a game like this one did. Attention to story was and is still peak gaming.

      Cyberpunk is infinitely better than it released and such a good game. I bought it on launch and ended up just waiting for the dlc to drop before my first playthrough, they had such a good game underneath so I get all the hype but the bean counters just under estimated the necessary timeline for it to be ready. 😤

      It’s good, just don’t expect what they were promising before launch. I enjoyed the base game and the Phantom Liberty DLC even more.

      I got it on steam Summer sale for $33 for the full game. No regrets.

      It really is a very good game
