Cyberpunk 2077 Gameplay Demo
- Thread starter vestan
- Start date
You honestly believe that CDPR will make the same mistake again?
Immediate impressions (with the full understanding that it's WIP)
Pros
Cons
Mixed
Pros
- Love female V's voice
- Character designs are really good
- World and enviroments look amazing
- World feels alive in a way no other game ever has
- Combat looks amazing
- Dialogue choices seem impactful (unlike something like FO4)
- I really like the first person angle
Cons
- Streets seem kinda empty during the driving segments. Several stretches had literally no other cars on the roads. I hope this is because those road are kinda meant to be roads that just aren't used much. But yeah, hope for some more vehicle density in the final release.
Mixed
- Lighting seems to work really well for the most part, however harsh sunlight kinda seems to wash away the details. This felt most apparent when the Trauma team were picking up the wounded woman, and when V was riding in the car with the gold-armed mob boss (dex was it?)
- UI is a bit of a mixed bag. Some parts of it are amazing. Stuff like when V hacks the enemy, the character creator, the inventory, and the face cam that pops up when when npcs contact you look great and feel very contextual within the game. However I'm not really sold on the elements of the UI that's the more standard game UI stuff. Things like waypoint markers, enemy levels, dmg numbers, button prompts etc. I get that some of it, like waypoint markers, are probably necessary. However I definitely hope it's possible to at least turn off things like dmg number(don't need these), health bars(feels too "gamey", would much rather have something like an optic implant that can measure enemy vitals like pulse and mental state), and enemy levels(I would much rather not have these displayed, and then have to scan enemies like was shown in the demo in order to find out whether I should engage an enemy)
And other people will skip over the very reasonable statement CDPR put out and share with us their own hot takes about how games are made.
Probably a YT/Twitch thing. They said earlier that the game will feature full nudity.

Red Dead Redemption 2's skybox,atmosphere,lighting and environments absolutely rivals Cyperpunk's based on the video
This should also be shown in every gameplay reveal thread because people can't get it through their heads that stuff like this is always be a work in progress until you see the launch trailer.
Great demo, but still not all that people spoke about 'nothing can run this game' talk. I remember John speaking of the closed E3 like 'no video game could run this', but after that for me is still possible.
At least they give us gameplay.

Ok graphics wise... MAYBE not the BEST i've seen. But when she went down the elevator, and you saw this is a TRUE bustling city... The sheer SIZE of the world the amount of characters, the fact it looks like you can go EVERYWHERE... THAT's what's next gen about it. It looks like TRUE living breathing world. More than GTA 5, More than Red Dead... Unlike other open world games, this isn't hyperbole.
Yeah I really love his music. Hopefully they add some of his songs at the very least. And Lazerhawk as well:
Ok I see we are not going anywhere. I will end it with this: If it worked fine then they would have added it.
can we enhance our dick and boob size?Any guesses which country will ban this game?
What about butts?
EDIT: top of the page. fuck.
As impressive as it looks looks( Which it does and oozes atmosphere) I can't help but feel disconnected still By flat TV gaming, As VR really does do immersion better, And all I could think while watching the gameplay was how much better it would be in VR, Actually seeing and being inside the world rather than staring at it on a screen and panning the camera around.
Hopefully 10 years from now I'll have that dream lived out, Cyberpunk/VR.

As someone who doesn't think much of TW3's combat, I thought it looked pretty promising. Cool guns, lots of options and I dug that little boss fight where she was sliding under gunfire, double jumping, going into slow-mo etc. I mean, it probably won't top Doom 2016 or Halo CE but as far as RPGs go, it looks pretty promising I thought. Wall-running is cool as well.
I know there was a lot of "opinionated conversation" around E3 over the game's choice of perspective but after seeing this... man am I glad this is first person... so fucking glad. I wouldnt get near the vibes/immersion etc. from playing puppeteer... and the cool bits that only could happen in this perspective add so much to the experience. Game looks amazing all around. Completely dig the entire art direction as well. Can not wait!
I hope the game will melt my eyeballs when it is released but I have to say I did not thing the graphics were that special - but I am willing to buy that that is due to the unprecedented scope and complexity of the gameworld.
I would also enjoy Yoko Kanno making the soundtrack. But Perturbator and other synthwave greats probably fit the aesthetic a little better.
Yeah, unreal. The world isn't a feel good place all the time. It's necessary to have stories that reflect that.
Back in E3 they said blurring was done just for demo in order to make it more... viewer friendly. Expect game to have full uncensored frontals.
Glad that you enjoyed it; I highly recommend watching the official video not only because of higher quality video and audio, but also because they talk *a lot* about various gameplay mechanics, the world and its inhabitants - there was a ton of info that I didn't put into my stuff
I don't see it sorry
it looks great, but theres nothing in that video that makes me think its more ambitios or more "alive" than Red Dead Redemption 2
The Uncanny Valley is my go to album when I need a Cyberpunk fix.
Well shit.
He would be perfect for the game. Hopefully you can use custom music in the car radio/walking around at the very least.
I would watch the combat scenario that closes out the demo instead of the one at the start (retrieving the woman's body) to judge. Can't guarantee you'll think it looks better, but it's a lot more varied, at least.
Gunplay will live and die by how the guns respond, and/or how bullet-spongey enemies get. Here the guns seemed pretty responsive (along with the opportunity to upgrade them), and non-boss enemies felt like they went down reasonably quick.
Other than that....things definitely looked good, but I can see how this is a WIP build rather than a finished product.
At any rate, looked much more 'reasonable' for current-gen compared to the previous E3 trailer.
