My advice would be to wait and see what sort of reception this gets. They properly botched the release of the main game.
The combat is already excellent and super fun - it’ll be even better with the new perk system and cyberware. No harm in waiting for a few updates in case there’s some teething issues but I can’t given I already love the base game.It is said to completely overhaul, among others, the skills system and "police and combat AI", so it looks promising on paper. We'll have to wait and see how substantial those improvements really are.
Is 2.0 out then?
Stellar! I really enjoyed Cyberpunk 2077, this looks great
Agreed. Stopped playing it rather quickly back then in the intial launch phase but enjoyed the general idea and gameplay a lot. Seems like a fresh dive into Night City for me!Stellar! I really enjoyed Cyberpunk 2077, this looks great
I played it once as a street rat female V, then a second time as corpo male V. Just driving around the city was great. Production design was incredible, graphics, sound effects, musical score, voice acting, it was amazing. Second time I went and bought all the vehicles, bought all the apartments, and walked around with Gorilla arms pulverizing enemies’ heads with one hit. I didn’t realize Jackie was a Valentino until after I killed all of his gang mates. I got to the point where I would make displays of the dead bodies. Occasionally I would challenge the police and kill 50 or 60 in a row, then they just give up. Then I’d revert to a save where I killed 0 cops and 0 civilians. Just like Omar, a man has to have a code, I never drew down on nobody who wasn’t in the game.Agreed.

Cyberpunk/Steampunk is my fav setting, Shadowrun etc, so even with the shortcomings at launch it was awesome already. Not really a fan of Keanue Reeves appearing but no real biggie.I played it once as a street rat female V, then a second time as corpo male V. Just driving around the city was great.

Keanu’s whole deal worked better when playing as male V. I thought his acting was about par. The story made little sense the first time through, but second time it was actually a pretty cool story. Although his friend at the Afterlife, Rogue, was in her late 70s (Johnny had been in limbo for 50 years). So was Kerry Eurodyne.

would be amazing if there would be coop, could be roaming nightlclubs together with you, doing drugs, taking down crime syndicates and the likes
Same, I'm really excited for Phantom Liberty and I think the game will finally be in a state where it feels finished.
I was one of the few who never had any major problems with the game. Yes, the game had bugs and many promises were not included, but it was the same with Witcher 3 at release. A game this size is extremely complex and CDPR always plans more than they can actually include. It's their biggest weakness and they admit it. If you know and expect this for their releases, you won't be disappointed. I think their big mistake was to release it on the old consoles. It ran like dog shit on them and it was also the reason for the delays. I feel like the bad reviews would have been halved without the old consoles.
The game was never a GTA copy, free roaming was never the focus. Cyberpunk focuses on immersive storytelling and aesthetics. In both cases, the game set new milestones. That's CDPR's strength and they delivered on this field.
bsolutely none of that about them as a dev is true. They never admitted anything, they doubled down and lied about the game even after release.
I follow them since W1, so I know what they've said several times over the years. Their biggest weakness is to plan way more content than they're capable to include in the game later. They've said it in the W3 making of, they said it a few times during Witcher anniversaries when talking about development of the game and they've also mentioned it for Cyberpunk. But the side effect of that "weakness" was a ton of content in W3, especially with both expansions. Way more than in any RPG on the market at that time around. Just the size of Blood&Wine was big enough to be a stand alone game and not an expansion.
Cyberpunk was worse, because they tried to press a new game into old consoles. Yes, greed was the trigger here because they wanted to sell CP on all plattforms and that was their biggest mistake as I mentioned. If they had focused only on PC and new generation consoles, they would have released the game earlier with more content, instead of wasting months in trying to run the game on the old consoles.
Ahh that’s great to hear. Can’t wait to dive back in again!Push Square released their review of Phantom Liberty expansion ahead of embargo. Apparently runs 30 hours and is Cyberpunk's blood and wine. Very positive.
Phantom Liberty is often Cyberpunk 2077 at its very best. A gripping narrative complete with great characters adds another dimension to the open world RPG, while the main mission and side quest design remains top notch throughout. It's a tremendous expansion that delivers a truly memorable experience.
- Gripping story moments
- Fantastic characters
- Some top-tier missions
- Intense boss fights
- Dogtown art direction is superb
- Amazing soundtrack
- Dynamic events are a great addition

Woah!! That's impressive, is the expansion 'post game' or is it just weaved into what's going on?Gamespot 10/10
2.0 with Phantom Liberty

Waiting all this time for a first play through will be worth it in the end.
I sadly won’t play it till December but I already love the first game so a revamped version with fairly meaty story content (it’s what CDPR do brilliantly) is going to be lovely.I had already pre-ordered it as I loved Cyberpunk. If this is as good as it looks from the early reviews and it does sound like they've built on what I loved about the original, this could be a blood and wine type addition for me.
How long to beat hasn’t updated this there yet but I’d imagine the new campaign would be 20 hours with 5-7 hours of side content - that’s what seems standard for this sort of expansion. But that coupled with 2.0 and the fact that you’ve never played it on next gen hardware will take the experience to a new level for you.$30 for the expansion??
How big/long is this?
I really had fun with the game on my PS4. Now that i have the PS5 i am seriously tempted to replay the game with the expansion.

30 hours expansion. It's freaking huge for an expansion considering the main game is around 50 hours.
30 hours?! Crikey!30 hours expansion. It's freaking huge for an expansion considering the main game is around 50 hours.
Thanks for the reply!It takes place around 3/4 into the game, so, you'll get to a certain point and then it becomes available. The story expansion also has a thread which allows for an alternative ending in the main game.
