Did Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 Finally Fix The Game?

In this video, Mutahar discusses the development and release of Cyberpunk 2077. They express their initial excitement for the game when it was first revealed in 2013, but acknowledge that the game’s release was marred by lies and deception. The game launched in a terrible state, with numerous bugs and crashes, particularly on the last-gen consoles. The creator highlights the false advertising and misleading footage that was showcased prior to the game’s release.

However, the video goes on to acknowledge that CD Projekt Red has finally released update 2.0, which includes much-needed improvements and features that should have been in the game from the start. The creator expresses their frustration that companies should not be praised for meeting basic expectations, but still appreciates the updates nonetheless. They note that update 2.0 is only available for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series S/X, as the last-gen consoles were unable to handle the game’s ambitious design.

The video discusses the improvements in various aspects of the game, such as the police system, AI behaviors, and the ability to shoot from cars. The creator also mentions the enhancements made to graphics and the inclusion of new radio stations. They remark that although the updates are welcome, it is disappointing that CD Projekt Red had to abandon the original consoles to achieve the desired experience

The creator further points out changes to the perk system, improvements in net running and cyberware mechanics, as well as an expanded selection of weapons. They also mention a dislike for the leveling scaling system, as it removes the sense of danger in certain areas. However, overall, the creator acknowledges that update 2.0 has brought Cyberpunk 2077 closer to the game that was initially promised, which they personally enjoyed playing.

In conclusion, the creator of the video expresses relief and appreciation that CD Projekt Red finally delivered on the promises made in their initial showcases. They acknowledge that the game still deceived its audience but believe that the updates and improvements have redeemed Cyberpunk 2077 to a certain extent. The creator congratulates the developers while also urging them to be more transparent and truthful in future releases.
