Definitely agree with this. Won't know for sure until it is in my hands but that opening sequence made me feel a lot better about this game being a FPS.

Cyberpunk 2077 Gameplay Demo

Game looks incredible, they nailed it. The combat looks really fun, excited to mess around with it. Hopefully it's not too long before they show some more of the RPG stuff.
People saying that it's not that impressive visually don't seem to understand how much is going on here, the world seems really dense with details with lots of AI walking around and the animations are top of the line for an open world RPG. This is really impressive for this type of game, and I don't expect the PS4 and Xbox One versions to look this good, only the PC and next gen console versions (assuming it's cross gen).

Is Male and Female V a static character, with a default apperance we can't change or can we customize?
Exactly my thoughts as I was watching this seeing how polished it was and wondering when it'll come out.
Hell yes, this is what we've been waiting for! Gamersyde da best.
Whew. Should be up on Gamersyde servers soon.
What I liked:
- The seamless world. Yeah it looks like a current-gen game mostly but I'll accept the sort of flat visuals if it means the world is truly sprawling and load-free
- Possibilities for storytelling. This is definitely a tough sell from this trailer alone but the various competing factions and interests means there is some REAL potential for an interesting and dense story....... if they can pull that off
- The sense of place was pretty solid, loved the little shops and apartment
- Great sense of giving you a sense of danger. Lots of guns shoved in your face and the like
- Vehicles!!!!
What I didn't like:
- Why is everyone so ANGRY? I know this is a dystopian place and all but I'm hoping for some tonal variety
- There was a LOT of gunplay in this, and even the non-violent path led to a huge firefight. I do fear it falls into the Mass Effect trap, where the gunplay isn't very good, but the game is 40-60 hours long and filled with gunplay.
- The destructible environments were so cheesily scripted
- The choices didn't seem super impactful
Still in a wait and see attitude so far. It will absolutely 1000% need a knock out of the park story with a great world and characters for this to work. And I'm going to need a little more than what they've shown so far.

Yeah. Saw a thread earlier today full of people bashing God of War. :|
Anytime anything is successful, Era is ready to drag it back down. Prepare yourself for threads like LTTP: 10 years later, we all agree Blade Runner 2049 was garbage right?
Yeah, every little blemish actually made me happy because it seemed a lot more achievable. Very different from something like the original Watch_dogs demo where everything was so perfect with custom animations for every little detail and interaction.
Superb and very thorough first-look. More color and personality (and punk!) than Deus Ex yet with an even higher level of grit. More scope yet with no visible loading.
Nice to see there's a real game behind all the hype that gives me no doubt it's genuine. No single aspect is above your regular combat or RPG game but it is the volume and cohesiveness of what's on display here that lifts it above.

Looks great, though a little overhyped. Hopefully the rpg systems don't mess up the action gameplay too much. So far it looks like they're doing a good job of differentiating upgrades in more natural, action-based ways, like being able to cling to walls and stuff, but we'll see how the final product turns out. I imagine it was overhyped because this is the kinda game where showing an intro mission doesn't really give you a good sense of what's in store, so you just trust the devs and let your imagination fill in the rest. They say what you do here will have lasting impact, so you just believe them even though we having seen what "lasting impact" means or actually leads to. Whether it's something meaningful or not. So if you just take it on face value then it's clearly very good but nothing mind blowing. But, if things are actual as natural and meaningful over the course of the full game as they (and our imaginations) want us to believe, then yes, we're in store for something special. So we'll see. As of right now it looks like a game I'll pick up and might even really enjoy. But whether it lives up to its "gamechanger" reputation it's already building up sounds like a tall order.
I was impressed with the combat when I wasn't expecting to be. Not as impressed with the writing however. Every chats get felt like a collection of walking stereotypes.
Also, looked like there was an Npc with a hijab. Cool to see.

Agreed. Rockstar's games are always so disappointingly linear in their mission design.
Yeah but since this game is at least 1 year (probably 2) away, optimization comes later in the cycle.
What is running on a 1080Ti now could be ran on a 1060 before launch.
RDR2 looks more impressive and more organic than Cyberpunk 2077. And it looks way better as well.
Please make an album with all of your 2077 gifs, thread is moving too fast.
Whew. Should be up on Gamersyde servers soon. http://www.gamersyde.com/news_livestream_cyberpunk_2077_gameplay_reveal-20370_en.html
Thanks and R.I.P your servers :P
Totally agree, I kept thinking how other games pale in comparison to all the things going on in this game, it's firing on all cylinders.
Some things never change.
No way. I don't want to get too off topic, but no way. Some of the gifs posted itt are way waaay above what was shown of Ghosts at E3. The sheer density of npcs, buildings, etc.
No, lol this is easily looking like the most ambitious open world game in a very long time
well one's a directed game with a defined character and story (Arthur Morgan)
why one is a RPG
I thought Ghost of Tsushima looked more impressive to me as well. People made it out like cyberpunk was like some next gen level stuff, but it looks absolutely possible for current gen. As mentioned before it pretty much looks like a more polished fallout game(which doesn't say much tbh) in a different setting.
What did you expect ? I'll let you in on a secret not so secret, all the demo that run on PC always have top of the line hardware.

yessssssssssss
Especially interested in how they handle stealth. I always like to play a pure stealth character. We saw the spiderbot had an invisibility cloak so I'm hoping there's something similar for the player. Stealth killing, hacking, and engineering skills sounds like a good combo.
As cool as it is, the game actually has a lot more brown and grey than I was expecting. Maybe it's something to do with the lighting.
Jackie dialogue was rough, I am not a fan of throwing a Spanish word every now and then, because I don't think I it happens in real life, just in movies. The doctor scene was top notch in every sense however. That looked ready for shipping.
It's not "bugs". Game just looks weak. Characters are moving like robots. RDR2 looks FAR better.
I don't really get why RDR2 keeps coming up other than 'huge AAA blockbuster'. One is a FPS, the other TPS. They are set against completely different time periods. One is shipping in 2 months, the other has no release date.
RDR2 was like the furthest game from my mind when watching the demo.

Pretty much agree, when they were cursing up a storm it felt so forced, like they want to be taken seriously like a HBO show or something. It might work better once you actually know the characters but segmented out like that it was a silly look. The other conversations are generally a lot better, at least, although I'm worried how many stereotypes they're going to lean into.
I'm impressed so far but I think I wanna see how the world flows together and how much impact your dialogue really has.
