VG247: Cyberpunk 2077: Banging, C-bombs and bullet-time
We sat down at E3 to witness 50 minutes of stunning gameplay. Jaws dropped at the ultraviolence. Eyeballs sprang out on stalks. Ears burned at the spicy language. And afterwards we jabbered out mouths off in excitement at what we'd just witness. Holy. Guacamole. The wait has been justified. The hype tame in comparison to reality. Cyberpunk 2077 is going to be a game changer.

Cyberpunk 2077 is like Rockstar levels of open-world craziness. Beautiful, detailed, choice everywhere. Gunplay is wicked. Can run on walls, plant into them with blades, drop onto foes, slice their heads off. Slow time, use mods to control bots. Wow. Wow. Wow.
GameInformer: Cyberpunk 2077 Is Not What You Think
I entered this demonstration with thoughts of Witcher III: Wild Hunt, thinking I would see something similar in design, only with futuristic trappings in a sprawling city. My memories of Geralt of Rivia and his adventures vanished when CD Projekt Red showed me Cyberpunk 2077 is a first-person, open-world RPG. It's a completely different beast than Witcher, delivering player choice in a what appears to be a more dangerous and dynamic world.

Cyberpunk 2077 is legit. I can't even imagine this being current gen. Like holy shit. It's like Deus Ex + Crysis + Witcher at a scale and level of detail that I've never seen. It's the kind of game I've dreamt of for ages. That was one hell of an hour.

I'd certainly like to believe that everything I saw in this Cyberpunk 2077 demo was real, not just part of some elaborate "vertical slice" hoodwink. Because as I said, this is the most impressive demo I've everseen. And if CD Projekt can make the game that CD Projekt claims it's making? The game it showed to us? We're all in for a real treat.
Kotaku: Cyberpunk 2077 Is A Violent, Impressive Blend Of Deus Ex And The Witcher 3
Here's the short version: Cyberpunk 2077 is a lot like Deus Ex, with what looks like less stealth but better shooting. There's lots of violence. There are branching quests with multiple choices, like The Witcher 3, and there's a driving system that seems a whole lot like Grand Theft Auto. The demo was impressive, hinting at typically dystopian themes, lots of player choice, and many, many different guns.
