I wanted to ask about people’s experiences with Cyberpunk


I know it had all kinds of issues


Are those issues fixed well for the next gen systems with the latest patches?
Will it run well on a series x?


I hear the company is still
Working on patches and also an optimized version for the next gen consoles


Could I buy it now and then would I get the optimized version for free later on?

should I wait?

They're supposed to have a next gen release late this year; probably be next year if we're honest about how these schedules usually unfold. I bought it on Ps4 but are owed the next gen updgrade as well if you buy it on Microsoft store. Personally I'm waiting it out for next gen but see no harm giving it a go. Slammed played it on Xbox X I wanna say so he could tell you how it held up.

Edit: just saw Slammed replied above, so nm there lol but there are a couple of others with series X too

I'm pretty sure you can find it cheap right now, especially in the physical form. I honestly didn't run into too many issues. Had some dialogue issues where the characters would talk over each other from time to time, but outside that, nothing really major to report. It is a solid game once you figure out what you're doing (picking up items, what to do with them, where to go next). Graphics were...meh....to me. Kind of all over the place. Some shots would look really good and then other times I wasn't very impressed. That didn't take away from the game play though. While I technically beat it, I've been meaning to go back and do side missions or try an alternative story.

Also to note, I was playing mine on a One X. I game share with a friend on Xbox and his account is still tied to my One X. I've been meaning to switch it over to my Series X but I was waiting until he found a Series X so we could switch them both at the same time. My point being, I didn't run into many issues on the One X. I cannot speak to how the game was on the Series X, though, I imagine it couldn't be worse.

Thank you for the feedback.

I am torn on whether to play now. Or wait for the full series x version. Though I’ve read that if you buy now. You get a free upgrade once they are done with the next gen updates.

Playing little nightmares 2 as we speak. Wow what an incredible and unique game. Never played the first. The atmosphere is incredible and I got the PS5 premium with the soundtrack and artwork. What a fantastic game.

Are there a lot of puzzles or could you play through it casually while slightly intoxicated? lol Was thinking of picking this up too but hate puzzles more for the game flow purposes...more are they easy I guess if there are some, etc. nothing more humbling than pulling up yt for a vg puzzle :facepalm:

the game is stealth heavy, there are quite a few puzzles but they aren't really hard they'll require just a tad bit of thinking

Right there with you, think we are looking the same ones, that's what drew me initially (X Men) then saw TMNT and Killer Instinct and couple of others that would love to have if I had a garage or something to store em in.

cyberpunk isn't a next gen game. I'm waiting for the next gen version to release before playing (I already purchased it). After hearing about all the launch issues (I'm sure a lot of exaggerated) I'm just going to wait it out, let them fix and add more content and when the next gen version releases that should be the best time to play.

what's weird about this is that I've been watching people play the first TMNT on NES on youtube, watching speedruns (actual speedruns, not hacks that allow you to skip the entire game). Some other comments were people playing The Arcade Game and now I'm reading this lol

I. Loved. Turtles in Time. :thumbup:Amazing game that brings back so many great memories. I would overpay for that game to be on the Nintendo Switch.

TMNT IV: Turtles in Time is 100% pure nostalgia, watching just the intro brings back fond memories...

Saw this on slickdeals:

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunter GoTY Edition (Xbox One/Series X|S Digital Download) $10
Microsoft Store has The Witcher 3: Wild Hunter Game of the Year Edition (Xbox One/Series X|S Digital Download) on sale for $9.99

Warning that if you started playing on gamepass (which doesn't contain DLCs) that saves won't transfer to GoTY version.

Oh, and be on FedEx with your hawkeyes, they dropped it on my porch in the rain wo ringing the doorbell. I live on a set of row houses, so not exactly secure to just leave it like that. I have heard they have "another address" sign off on your package by mistake, and then it's kind of free reign on that packages whereabouts. So half suspect there was someone else supposed to follow him and snatch it (I got within a minute due to our dog barking) but it was all very fishy. Why did I not have to sign?

So just be vigilant with them and have your eyes glued on that day it's in your city and out for delivery.

You were right. They literally just dropped it off on my front porch. No door knock. No ringing of the door bell. No trying to hide it behind the post. Nothing. Just left right in the middle of the porch in plain view of the whole street. Lol
