As much as I like this game, I cannot recommend it.

My first impressions were solid, a 10/10. However, as I played the game more I've realized CDPR has missed the mark with this one. The core game is great. The story, gunplay, etc. It's fine. The graphics are some of the best I've ever seen, even if they require super high-end hardware. I played it on modded Psycho settings with Ryzen 3700X and an RTX 3080. The graphics do make you go WOW.

But unfortunately, the game is riddled with very frustrating issues, and no, I am not talking about the technical ones. I doubt these would be fixed via an update.

1. The AI is horrendously bad. GTA San Andreas from 2004 has better AI than Cyberpunk, and I'm not exaggerating. You shoot one bullet and an entire street full off people go into crouch in SYNC. No variations, nothing. The NPC count is really low too. You can spot the same NPC repeating if you give it a little attention.

2. COPS. I never expected this from a game that apparently has been in development since a decade. You shoot one bullet and the cops will LITERALLY SPAWN out of nowhere 3-4 yards behind you. THIS IS A 2020 TITLE. WTH?

3. Side missions are detailed yet repetitive. Most of them follow the same core: go to a place, shoot a guy or guys, boom, mission done.

I could go on to some more nit-picked stuff, but I won't. Bottom line is, Cyberpunk absolutely did not live up to it's hype - and this is coming from someone who went into this with little to no expectations.

Don't get me wrong, CDPR did an absolutely fantastic job with the detailed world, the music and the overall vibe. However, they did miss out on some very important things that make an open-world game truly immersive. This really makes me appreciate Rockstar's level of attention to detail.

Anyways, so yeah, I won't say this game is not worth the $60, but do keep in mind these things before jumping in, or you'd be very disappointed.

Great title. Recommended.

So many hackers, Poor support. Don't start this game, it sucks.

A very nice game indeed.
Great mechanics, optimization and skill-based gameplay.

It'll start downloading workshop content just when you start to play it and your ping will skyrocket.
Instead of introducing confirmed workshop content through a patch like CSGO, the devs of Rust makes us download EVERYTHING from the workshop even tho most of it is not even accepted into the game. This is the only thing I hate about this game.

I'd rather play Minecraft instead of this.
