Cyberpunk 2077 didn’t have the best launch (lol). But some of us enjoyed the game despite its flaws. In the time since then, they’ve had nearly two years to patch the issues and add QoL.
Recently, I decided to give it another go and see how far it’s come since then and MAN did I enjoy the hell out of it! Like, way more than I expected. It’s really a much better game now than it was at launch.
I went right from finishing Cyberpunk to Starfield and boy did it make Starfield look bad. Like, not just visually (how can a two year old game look THAT much better than Starfield??) but I mean things like the combat and the role playing are just miles better in CP2077.
And in two days (Sep 21), version 2.0 will release. This is going to be a huge patch that’s free for everyone who already owns the game that adds and changes a bunch of stuff even if you don’t buy the expansion (which comes out a few days after that).
Given how good v1.6 (the current version) of CP2077 is, I’d say there’s no better time to dip into this game if it’s something you’ve been thinking about.
I’m really excited to play through again. With a different build, the gameplay will feel fresh regardless of the updates. And the role playing is deep enough that I can make different choices to see different results in most of the quests I’ll have to repeat. Neither of those things are true about Starfield.
Yeah I don’t mean make it a different game but stuff like HDR settings, eat button, mod support can make it a much better experience than what it was during vip access or launch.
Modding maybe, but that doesn’t help console players. An eat button and HDR settings are so hilariously inadequate that I think the people excited for those changes already like the game and don’t see the actual issues.
ICYMI Mod support would come to consoles as well, now how good or bad it would be is something we’ll have to see.
Yeah, I mean if someone is excited to play any game and they can’t even adjust brightness or have to witness very long loading screens, they would want it to be fixed before their playthrough.

Honestly not sure what they can do to fix Starfield. Bug fixes and QoL aren’t going to help the systemic issues the game has.
