It's absolutely impossible to write a good story with the amount of variability necessary to satisfy gamers' expectations. No game has ever done it or will ever do it. There's a reason choose your own adventure books are not a serious literary genre. When I talk about choice its not a matter of taking the story down hundreds of different paths . The player can be given options on how to solve the game and still get the same outcome Example Kill NPC X and Return to Owner With Item Skill checks can be added in so the quest remains the same but journey is varied. If you pass a skill check because you have high hacking skill the owner may offer you a different route or a Stealth check that can reward you more items. 6 hours ago, Moa said: The trick is not to make you decisions matter, it's to make it feel like your decision matter, and these are two very different goals. This game fails miserably at both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umm, this game does that with skill checks. If you have high body, you might be able to rip a door open and skip the whole mission, tech ability lets you open doors with that are Inaccessible otherwise, etc etc. ive replayed missions in very different ways. and choice does matter. Im not gonna spoil anything, but there are some big differences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those just alter which path you take and again I am not hating on the game for not having it . CDRP just promised this immersive world where choice matters and right now it appears very shallow. On a side note the game finally clicked for me last night, I actually had fun and was enjoying myself. I was too hard on the combat and Ill gladly eat crow for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodyHell Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 This game has so much attention to detail. Even little things, like if you pick up Rogue in a certain car, the dialogue on the drive is different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recommended solution is to turn off Steam backups and manually delete your old saves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Pickle Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I’m playing on original ps4 and haven’t noticed anything since 1.05 patch. Still got weird bugs but I did go check the mirror to see if I’m bald still if I have a hat on and the game insta crashed.

Greatoneshere Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Because of the existence of the Xbox One X and Xbox One S and now the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, I had totally forgotten about the original Xbox One and Xbox One Elite. As I recall, the power of the original Xbox One and Xbox One S are essentially the same, while the Xbox One X is a good bit more powerful than both of those as a mid-generation upgrade, a bit better than the PS4 Pro (whilst the base PS4 was a bit more powerful than the base Xbox One/Xbox One S). Am I correct on that? In terms of for Cyberpunk 2077. Not sure what Eurogamer and others have said about PS4 Pro/Xbox One X's ability to run the game, just that the base PS4 and Xbox One (and Xbox One S) run like dogshit. How does the PS5 and XSX run it? How about the XSS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The launch Xbone and Elite are the same (power-wise), I think, except the Elite has one of those Seagate Hybrid-S/HDDs for faster load times. The XboneS is slightly more powerful than the launch Xbone, to where it could maintain a constant 1080p + 30fps for Gears 5, but the launch would drop res occasionally and dip into the 27fps range. The XboneX is very powerful compared to the rest of that gen of consoles, constantly outperforming the PS4 Pro in cross platform games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No clue first hand. I heard that it’s kind of a mess regardless of what last gen console you try to play it on - but the launch consoles + the XboneS are basically running at N64-type fps (low-mid 20s) and sub-720p at times. There’s been a patch that may have improved it, though? Pro and X1X are mostly 30fps afaik. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they aren't running at a locked 30fps on PS4 Pro/X1X that's pretty sad since those don't even do DLSS or raytracing. Without those, they should be able to do a locked 30fps at 1080p at least?

DLSS renders at a lower resolution and then upscales the low res image to your target resolution for less of a performance cost than rendering at that target resolution natively. So if you're using DLSS, you might as a consequence aim for a higher resolution than you would normally but 4K DLSS is less compute intensive than regular 4K, for example. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
