    To an extent he isn’t wrong. Shitting on cyberpunk was very viral right after the game launch. I watched so many damn videos of all the ridiculous bugs in game. They were legit game breaking and outright laughable how bad they were, which is why it went viral. Still though, it doesn’t excuse their poor launch, and it doesn’t look good when they try to deflect their issues back on the players…

      I played through without issue my first play through. I did notice that the police spawn-in system was funky and I discovered how to get rich by crafting cans into things so I was really rich. I had maybe a few weird physics bugs but overall the experience was great. I had a pretty high-end PC at the time so that likely helped.

      A friend of mine played through it on the PS4 and he had a lot more bugs and performance issues but he liked the game overall.

      I didn’t watch all of the hype leading up to it, or all of the videos that they released promising features and so I can understand how people would feel let down. I went into it 100% blind, I saw the release advertisements, I love the Cyberpunk genre and the reviews were not terrible (bugs, performance issues, etc). So I played it exactly as it was, and it wasn’t bad.

      I am super excited for Phantom Liberty. The updated systems all sound really fun and I have a machine that can pull off ray tracing at decent framerates so I’m going to try a playthrough like that.
