I played for several hours last night. I don't see the complaints so far. Yeah its a bit glitchy but it looks amazing and the city really has a super unique feel of being lived in, great scale & scope so far.
But I guess I have two advantages:
1. I was looking forward to Cyberpunk 2077 but I only occasionally paid attention to the YT videos or marketing materials. Just enough to figure out 'what kind of game it would be'. I was basically expecting a more competent, 'cyberpunk' version of Fallout New Vegas (more or less). Essentially 'A Bethesda game but made by competent people'. So far I have not been disappointed whatsoever and am really getting sucked in.
2. I'm running this on a an EVGA 2080Ti FTW3 Ultra, 32GB of DDR4 RAM (3600Mhz), 800GB SSD NVME, and an OC'd Ryzen 1800X. Almost everything is set to top settings except I'm in DLSS perf mode @ 2k. So like 49-55fps is the average framerate band. So my experience is towards the upper end of what Cyberpunk allows.
If I had any complaint at all it's that on Hard mode some of the enemies feel very bullet spongey in a Borderlands kinda way. But, if memory serves, in the opening segment of Fallout 4 with pipe weapons enemies were hard to kill too. So for now I'm chalking that up to 'my gear is shit'.
Do others feel this way about the game? Are the complaints from a vocal minority of people while the rest of us are just busy loving the experience?
Game wise Cyberpunk 2077 is: Fallout meets Borderlands (in some ways).
Inspiratoin wise Cyberpunk 2077 is: Ghost in the Shell meets Bladerunner meets Akira meets The Matrix meets Robocop.
