I started it again for the third time a couple of weeks ago, this time with a lot of mods.
I preordered and played it when it came out, and despite finding some bugs, it still was an 8/10 experience (8.5/10 actually).
The expansion is great, and I’m really sad they canceled other content because they botched the launch that badly. I think console gamers were the ones with the worst version.
It just never should have launched for the previous gen consoles. It’s so painfully evident that no amount of optimization done after the game was “complete” was going to fix performance on old AMD APUs working off laptop hard drives. The PS4 and Xbox One were put to their limits almost immediately when they launched in 2013, and Cyberpunk just did not play within them.
That’s the problem with announcing early, if they had just waited until a year out for the demo and stuff it would have been more natural for it to be a next Gen console only game.
I was really lucky with my first play through. Almost no bugs(One big one, which was patched and fixed the quest for me), and then a few minor things. I absolutely loved the game, and was easily my GOTY.
I would never have suggested getting it on old gen consoles and should not have ever existed. Honestly they also have a pretty terrible track record for games launching well(you always looked for the Enhanced Edition), so I wouldn’t have really suggested anyone to get it day one without knowing its probably going to be buggy.
