I don't care what anyone says, Cyberpunk 2077 is still a snoozefest. So disappointing. I was so hyped for so long.
Full Disclosure: I haven't played Phantom Liberty because I can't justify buying it when the base game is still so mediocre.
I'd say, if you want to, just pirate the DLC and give it a try. It is better than the base game. With that said, if you played the base game after the DLC released and didn't like it, you probably just don't like the game, and that's fine. Personally, I think it's pretty good, but I also mod the hell out of it. There's a lot of smaller things I don't like about the game that mods can fix, like removing the hacking minigame and things like that.
(Tangent: why does every game thing they need a hacking/lockpicking minigame?! I'll be enjoying the game, then suddenly I have to spend a minute on some boring ass minigame that doesn't do anything except take you away from the gameplay. Why? The old-school method of your character just doing a skill check is great, and it doesn't waste our time. Can we go back to that?)
I enjoyed it, but I thought that I was going to get more Bethesda RPG and less Grand Theft Auto going in from all the comparisons I'd heard.
I also felt that while the production values were very high, they got limited gameplay out of the asset creation that they did. Like, for any given piece of city, Grand Theft Auto had a lot more time playing over it than did Cyberpunk 2077. There were huge chunks of meticulously-created map that I maybe saw once in the distance while driving past, if that.
The only good part of the game is the amazing original teaser trailer and the netflix show.
Man, that trailer. We thought we were going to get something with the depth of Disco Elysium and Witcher level worldbuilding, but instead got "future pew pew" fps railroading that barely worked.
While I disagree, yeah why would you buy an expansion when you didn't enjoy the first campaign. That's just sanity there.
I got my PS5 just before this came out and almost bought it, but before it was released, I remember seeing a lot of reviewers online saying they had to sign agreements that they would not fully disclose the state of the game and I knew at that point this wasn’t going to be good. The memes were thought.
