After being severely disappointed by AC Mirage<\/a>, I was ready to hop back into Cyberpunk 2077 and see how the 2.0 update changes things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I really had no interest before the 2.0 update to replay the game; I felt it was good, but not “replay and try something different” good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ongoing content was pretty meh, and I just didn’t really care that much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When 2.0 came out, though, and I saw the spike in traffic again, I realized I should probably take a look and see what’s changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Turns out, almost every single guide I’ve written is now useless, so.. Let’s start over with it from the beginning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall the story hasn’t changed; Aside from the new DLC, it’s the same core storyline, which is good. The voice acting and everything else is just superb here, and it’s nice to come back since I haven’t really touched it for a significant time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What isn’t nice is that – so far – I’ve encountered far more bugs and performance issues than I did when the game first released.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This includes one game-breaking bug that required me to load a previous save; Jackie just finished talking to me, so I pulled up my in-game phone, and.. He started talking to me again. This made it so I literally couldn’t do a single thing in the game except for quit and reload a previous save.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also frequently have HEAVY slowdowns when opening the map initially, and also during some cutscenes, with no rhyme or reason for the cause. Framerate-wise I can run pretty good quality with raytracing on and average about 60 FPS at 1440p, but these sudden massive dips in framerate just.. Suck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The positive aspects thus far are that your preferred playstyle becomes actually usable pretty early on; I’m of course re-doing my stealth hacker build, and found myself enjoying hacking quite a bit right from the start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is all thanks to a massive – and VERY well done – overhaul of the skill system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m definitely enjoying it despite my aforementioned issues, and will plan to publish a full 2.0 review (and revised versions of my old guides) as soon as possible!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
