That's half the main games price... Just don't buy it

edit

ok ill add some other info i dont want this to sound like a mindless bashing

BUGS as of patch 2.01

  • in a quest you need to alternate between your face and another character. everytime after the switch the Start menu would be unavailable, only fix is to save and reload the game(you change clothes like 4 times in that quest and it gets bugged every time)

  • character getting ejected into the air while leaving a vehicle for no reason

  • character getting stuck into vehicles if you approach them too fast and the world freezing in solidarity

  • quest markers not getting updated

  • quests taking over your your tracked quest for no reason

  • characters sending you texts while you are talking to them

Ummm, since we are being critical, I'm going to say that low effort bug reports get sent to the recycle bin on my dev team. Also, what's up with the tone of your post? You sound like you hated Cyberpunk 2077 in general and so you felt the need to scream it from the rooftops.

I've played Phantom Liberty now for a couple days and I've never seen anything you're reporting, so you'll need to give more detail, like are you playing this on PC or Console, and which console? What are your settings? Also lose the bad attitude man, we are all here to have fun.

I like cyberpunk. Not sure where you see an attitude

And why would you need to know my "settings"??

[–] Jako301@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

At least the "character getting ejected" bug can have a direct connection with framerate issues and the corresponding settings. Most of the other stuff you've mentioned can be impacted by localisation, subtitle and accessibility settings.

Are the missions long at least or is it something like 6 hours total?

[–] sederx@programming.dev 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

50% fetch quests. If you use the teleport points you can finish this in half a day

Skipping the dialogues of course,which are dogshit acting anyway.

Skipping the dialogues of course

Why are you skipping the dialogue in an RPG?

[–] kebabslob@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

RPG

Where?

[–] Sharpiemarker@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How do you define a role playing game?

You're playing as a person in an alternate reality.

You have character stats and builds.

Someone else is in control of the overarching narrative (you can't just decide to become a plumber for example).

[–] Don_alForno@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

Stat blocks don't make an RPG.

Part of the definition is that you in fact play a role. This means making decisions from their perspective as if you were them and their world was your reality. Any game that doesn't allow you to make informed, meaningful decisions isn't actually a role playing game.

Naturally, video games can't really give you total freedom in that regard, as any option you can pick needs to be anticipated and coded by the developer. But there are candidates that fit the requirement somewhat more and those that definitely don't.

Cyberpunk, while being a fun experience, doesn't really give you a lot of meaningful choices, at least not in the bigger quests, especially not the main plot. Most often different dialogue choices only lead to slightly different answers and the same outcome. You can't decide to rat Panam out to Militech when stealing the tank for example. You're not really playing the role of V, you're watching their story play out and maybe deciding what to do first and last.

CDPR have their own inhouse example of a better RPG to compare against.

50% fetch quests

I have just played it through. What you are saying is 100% incorrect.

[–] sederx@programming.dev 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Half the quest are literally go there talk to this person and come back or some variation of it.

[–] aksdb@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So ... like real-life? You can abstract everything to the point that it looks trivial.

[–] sederx@programming.dev 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

are you for real? XD the sidequests are boring, that is not ok since its the main content of a 30 bucks game

[–] aksdb@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's subjective. I play through the game the third time currently and still enjoy it.

[–] sederx@programming.dev 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

then say " i personally liked it because of X" what was that stuff about real life is boring? XD

[–] aksdb@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

I criticized your chosen abstraction. "go there talk to somebody and come back" is basically the definition of most interactions. That describes "going shopping", "going to work", "going to a customer" and in extension describes almost every quest in every game. That discriminates nothing of value.

[–] cradac@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

Check out howlongtobeat. It takes about 20 hours to complete main + side content. OP is just a really salty poster - take a look at his comment history.

[–] MaxPower@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

What's the point of your post? You think it sucks and regret buying and playing it, OK.

I however enjoyed it very much and I wish CDPR would chuck out more expansions. Now what?

And yes, there are bugs. Show me a game of this scale that does not have bugs. At least it's not a shit show like CP2077 at release date
