Locked Cyberpunk 2077 **Delayed**(Release: December 10th, 2020)

And for those who are wondering if CDPR will also release a demo of how it runs on PS4/PS5...

Well.... its running on the X1X far better than I expected it.

I'm still going to wait for the next-gen update next year, but its good to hear its running pretty decently on the XBX, although there was no mention of framerates between the two versions. The X1X is guaranteed to be only running at 30FPS max, but I'm curious if the XBX will be running at 60FPS at launch.

One last thing that stuck out like a sore thumb for me - Keanu Reeves voiceacting... well... isn't good. There's a huge difference between acting on a set with other actors in costume and being in a soundroom with only a mic and script, and I'm fearing Keanu didn't make the adjustments to put in an impressive voice performance. In the few lines he had he sounded... uninspired. That one bit about 'two sexbots would be too much for even him' sounded like it was supposed to be humorous, but fell completely flat.

The resolution has taken a hit for the XBX and I doubt the XSX will be 60fps. I hope we get a locked 30fps at 4k [native or checkerboard] though.

I agree with Keanu's VA being a bit dull, especially since the VA of everyone else is superb. But I also think he's been uninspired for a long time. I havent really seen a great performance from him since the first John Wick movie.

As long as the next-gen update will make it run 4K/60FPS, I'll be satisfied.

Most film actors that are new to VA work don't do the best job... like Peter Dinklage.

Didn't Keanu do some VA work for a Disney movie like Toy Story 4?

I'd prefer they release a demo of the game actually fucking releasing.

Yeah, he was Duke Kaboom, the French Canadian Evel Knievel. He was pretty funny.

Yikes that gameplay demo was not impressive at all.

At this point, any of the gameplay/trailers/demos released, doesnt excite me in the least. I just wanna play it.

I like how she says "hustler"

Then at the same time showing bouncer at the door probably making minium wage

Was shocked when i saw the developers introduced a DMCA mode for streamers.

I thought they made all their music in house?

This game wasn’t even on my radar until a few months ago. After watching the latest videos, I’m all in. Looks like they’ve built a fantastic world to engage in.

Something like 150 songs were created for the game. Musician contracts dont include rebroadcasting rights.

PCGamer had a 15 hour hands on session. Sounds great so far

Now, after another 15 hours with the year's most anticipated game, I'm positively ravenous. In my demo, which was spread out across two days and started at the very beginning of the game, I drifted between big, important story missions and weird, tiny side quests—and did a lot of other fun, interesting stuff along the way. This is the biggest chunk of the game I've played so far, but I've still only lightly scratched its shiny chrome surface.

I did Akira slides on motorcycles, hacked peoples' brains, stole more cool-looking futuristic cars than I can count, and ate synthmeat yakitori. I met dozens of eccentric characters, played factions against each other, drove beyond the city walls into the desert, made a few powerful enemies, and hung out with Keanu Reeves. A few things didn't quite land for me (more on that later), but after all this my desire to play the finished game is more powerful than ever.

This is something I hadn't heard before...

"But now I had a katana—and a lethally sharp one at that. Then when I realised I could silently take out entire squads of gun-toting bad guys with it, shooting people with guns suddenly felt very pedestrian.

Cyberpunk 2077's loot system categorises the Black Unicorn as a Legendary weapon, the highest tier. It's also a reference to a sword from The Witcher, and its tongue-in-cheek description claims it was 'forged DRM-free, which makes it extra light and nimble. Dealing 700 damage per second, and with an increased chance of causing bleeding and scoring critical hits, it's obscenely powerful—and only became more deadly as I unlocked a selection of blade-focused perks.
Swords in Cyberpunk 2077 aren't just melee weapons you fall back on when you're out of ammo. They can be that, but they can also be an entire play style. Sword-specific perks include Slow and Steady, which increases your armour as you sprint, letting you close in on enemies without being shot to pieces. And Deathbolt (the icon for which shows V licking a katana) restores your health and increases your movement speed at the moment you kill someone with any bladed weapon.

A quality sword like the Black Unicorn, combined with these perks, makes wielding a blade in Cyberpunk 2077 incredibly satisfying and super effective. If you're careful, and use the environment to your advantage, you can clear out an entire facility of heavily armed soldiers without firing a shot. Throw hacking into the mix, disabling security cameras and rebooting optical implants to temporarily blind enemies, and you end up with more compelling reasons to keep your gun holstered and your sword unsheathed."

Remember all the jokes about how so many gamers trying to play Skyrim with different builds, but eventually fell back to being a stealth archer?

I've played through Witcher 3 four times, and each time I tried to play it differently with different legendary armors, but eventually went back to the Igni/GriffinArmor builds. Nothing is more satisfying than setting half a dozen enemies ablaze and having them explode.

But this katana build they described sounds VERY interesting... especially with stealth & netrunner abilities, you truly can become a cybernetic ninja in a cyberpunk world.

Well it looks good, but gameplay seems to be GTA with a very average FPS element

It's an RPG with stats, loot, skill trees, dialog etc.

Nothing like GTA.

If anything, its probably Deus Ex on steroids.

Sounds perfect to me. A lot of people will be disappointed by this game though, going in with wrong expecations.
