Cyberpunk 2077 hitting 60FPS on the PS5
Latest patch seemed to improve the amount of traffic and pedestrians a little at least.
Still looks like ass though.
Really? Is this what we've come to fellas? Comparing this broke-ass game between systems? We are so close to a PS5 die shot x-ray, boys.
Side note: Cyberpunk seems like a pretty generic action RPG. Have I played it? No. Have I watched many reviews and long-plays? Yup. What am I not getting here? Anyone else feel the same?
I’ve played about half the main story and side quests.
Yep it’s a fairly standard western RPG. The cyberpunk setting is what differentiates it but to me CDPR hasn’t quite captured it.
The setting feels more like Detroit or Black Mirror rather than Neuromancer or Blade Runner.
That’s not necessarily wrong - Black Mirror and Detroit are just as valid near future and cyberpunk as the older cyberpunk stalwarts. To me black mirror is modern cyberpunk.
But it’s not quite what I wanted. I hoped it’d be a bit more bleak, a bit more tech out of control and the characters a bit more interesting.
The plot line of the main story is a decent cyberpunk theme though - with Keanu Reeves presence it it’s difficult not to be reminded of Johnny Mnemonic because the story feels like a riff on that at points.
I do think CDPR went out of their way to be edgy and satirical like a GTA entry - but they fumbled that badly and just made juvenile sex references in lieu of any social commentary...
Also it’s difficult to play this after Demons Souls. The graphics and lack of tight gameplay reflect badly on CP2077. DeS feels like next generation gameplay despite being a gen older.
