Cyberpunk 2077 is an open-world game set in Night City, you can play it on Playstation 4& 5, Xbox One, and Stadia Windows. You play as a character named V. He is a hired thief who is after an implant that can make you immortal. you can customize your character and play style, and explore the city where every choice you make affects your story mode.  


In my opinion, the game is just OK–maybe don’t spend all the money you’ve saved on it, but it’s definitely worth a play.


On December 20, 2020, the game had some problems with the graphics, the shadow of the character, and other problems. Now the game developers mostly changed everything. Motorcycles are easier to drive than before. The crowd has improved a lot–their reaction to danger, suspicions, and getting into gang fights.

Developers have added more weather rotation, which makes it looks more natural. For example, there are now sandstorms and the rain is “no longer afraid of falling”, according to the game’s Update Site.


The game’s law enforcement also needs some fixing. Players have noticed that policemen will start getting into shootouts on the street with gang members and/or civilians carrying weapons to defend themselves. 


With that said, some weapons, i.e throwing knives, have had their own adjustments.


NPCs can now die naturally instead of getting up after being shot a thousand times. Clothing and armor are more adjustable.


The reward you get for exploring the games and quests has improved quite a lot. Some quests are rescuing, hacking systems, and others.


The game developers have updated and added new apartments and districts. Players can now buy or rent and customize the apartments and are much more interactive. You can even upgrade your apartment to make it more luxurious! The character’s love life has also been improved with more options to interact with said love interest.


However, there is one main problem players have found within this game that hasn’t been revisited yet: the game has no end.


Many players have also voiced they don’t feel a need to play the game after a certain point because it feels like it’s on loop. 


So it would be nice if the developers could make a proper ending for Cyberpunk 2077.
