It's everything you'd expect from a game like this. But there is some stuff that is really subpar.

-Bosses are a joke
-Graffiti becomes virtually useless once you complete the game
-Combat is nice, but there is no reason to engage in it in free roam
-Pricing is kinda ass

HOWEVER:
-Soundtrack is gas
-Gameplay is INSANELY fun
-Level design is top-notch

Looking at the story, which is meh, and the questionable replayability, I'd say wait for a sale.

don't tell the dwarfes they can unionize

This is better than Blood and Wine. There, I said it. You might think differently, but if you liked the game, then this DLC is nothing but almost perfect. They were not joking when they said this story is going to be a "spy thriller". You really never get a sense of certainty during the story, and I love that. It's obvious that the rabbit hole goes much deeper than it seems. What stood out to me especially were the acting performances and the atmosphere/cinematography. Let me just tell you, nothing is falling flat in that department. Don't know how they did it, but the game looks even better now, especially in the new District, which is, again, an incredibly beautifully made place, dripping in atmosphere and love for design. I had, just like in the main game, multiple moments where I just stood in place, gazing around and taking it all in. While Dogtown itself is a lot smaller than the other districts, making it merely the size of a sub-district, it is a lot more vertical. Side Content is really profiting from this, as you can make a single gig take place in one building. Which brings me to the side content itself. It's good, like so good that I don't want to return the boring copy-paste gigs from the main game. Sadly, there aren't a lot of these because of the district's smaller size. There are new infinite carjacking and airdrop missions, which are cool, but repetitive. There are performance issues, especially in Dogtown, but they already announced a patch to improve upon this issue. So it is probably just a question of time until this issue is dealt with.

In the end, this expansion makes a game that I already really liked even better.

I recommend, very much.

This game is awesome. It receives frequent free updates with free cosmetics and is a blast to play with friends or random people alike. The battle pass is amazing and finally free of FOMO. The charme of this game is unmatched and i think that anyone should pick this up. For Rock and Sto-

Voidigo is the most fun rogue-like that I played in a while. It offers enough unique mechanics to set itself apart from the famous kings. The keyboard controls are tight and smooth (also you can rebind most of them), the guns and the movement feels great and.. yeah.. it's just overall a very fun game. I'd love to see what the future brings for this game, because so far I only have a few complaints. The game is locked on 60 frames, which is sad, because I would love to play it in the max Hz refresh rate that my monitor offers. Also worth to mention is that there aren't a lot of bosses or different types of regions. But keep in mind, the game is in early access and is still being developed. I would definitely recommend this game.

So... I'm rewriting this review because there is just so much wrong with my previous statement. My original review was a 7-day post launch first insight. I didn't even finish the game back then but had the urge to write a review because I thought that canceling the game was wrong, and I wanted to leave a positive review, so I could help people that just want so see an honest opinion.

This game is amazing. I don't think there will be many games that will leave an impression on me like Cyberpunk 2077 did. I'm currently on my third playthrough playing the Corpo lifepath, and I'm still massively enjoying this game. You may argue if it's already playable after these few mediocre patches, but one thing is for certain. A lot of performance issues and glitches/bugs have been resolved, and the game is running the best it can right now. They canceled all remaining patches for 2021 and have been delaying them into early 2022. If you have a decent PC with a RTX graphics card, I would highly recommend you to play this game. You can literally get it for 20€ in third-party stores right now. If you don't have a graphics card that supports DLSS, on the other hand, don't. The game is actually unplayable without Upsampling. There is no way you can actually run this game with the minimum or recommend settings shown in steam. It may work, but you're probably stuck playing on low settings with 25fps MAX. The glitches went down big time. To be fair, i never even had a real issues with glitches that actually broke the game, but more of the funny one like a car boosting in the air doing a 360 for no reason. So in that case it's usually in the same state as any Ubisoft game ever :P

I always see people arguing about the driving, the graphics or the gameplay in Cyberpunk 2077, but I think most people forget the actual best part of the game. The Story.

You play as a mercenary called V who came to Night City to become a legend. I won't even go on further because I think that's all you need to know about the game to start it. It's much like the Witcher dialogue based, which means there will be a lot of *non-action just standing somewhere and talking to somebody* scenes. And I love these. There's a reason why I think a Taxi AI from Cyberpunk has more depth than any characters from Ubisoft or EA ever had. It's the writing. The story is complex and yes the explanation of fictional technology might seem annoying, but it adds so much more richness to the product. Johnny Silverhand is one of the coolest and most memorable characters from any videogame for me. Not because he is played and voiced by an actual actor (yeah... maybe that as well) but mainly because he is just very fleshed out. This game is mature, and it's not trying to hide that the world you're in is a dumpster fire where you could be shot literally any second. The open world doesn't seem that big but is build more vertically than most other known open worlds. The city nearly has a claustrophobic feeling for me because everything was squished together, which makes sense because night city has a major problem with over population.

I think everybody who is skeptical about this game should at least give it a try before saying it's bad. Because honestly... I don't understand how so many developers can get away with a sh*t game, that's buggy and simply unfinished and then there's Cyberpunk 2077, having A LOT of issues but still doing so much right, that gains all the hate that it just honestly did not deserve. I am talking about death threats send to developers who could've changed nothing because they were not the people to decide when the game would be released.

I'm very happy this game exists, and I honestly think it's a lot better than people claim it to be.

Thank you for reading
