Why I HATE Cyberpunk 2077 - overhyped and disappointing

Hey, so I've been playing the new

Cyberpunk 2077 video game recently,

and I have to say it is one of the most

disappointing, overhyped pieces of rubbish

I have never played this year. And I

wanted to make a video explaining why I'm

so disappointed and so upset with this

lackluster title. To be honest, I don't

really know why everyone was making such a

massive fuss about this game. Everyone was

asking me, blowing up my DMs, saying,

Daniel, Daniel, are you gonna play the new

Cyberpunk game? Are you get a new PC so

you can play the new Cyberpunk game. And I

had no idea what this game was. I had to

Google it and watch some videos on

YouTube. And after watching a few videos

of the game, I have decided that there is

absolutely nothing special or interesting

or unique about this video game. It takes

several ideas and concepts from old video

games and mashes them together into some

kind of weird Frankenstein monster of a

video game. So first of all, it just

basically looks like a modernized version,

a new rendition of Deus Ex, or Deus

Ex. Remember that old game where you were

some kind of RoboCop with cybernetic

implants and you could upgrade the

character and there were multiple choices

to the story and you had kind of like a

semi-open world to explore and find out

things and find secrets and upgrades to

your character? Cyberpunk 2077 is

basically exactly the same as that, but it

looks It also kind of looks like GTA.

So you've got these scenes of the gameplay

when you're in the big city, the

futuristic cyberpunk city, and you can

steal any car and run people over and

drive all over the city and do anything

you want to, go into different buildings

and shops and interact with stuff like

that. Basically a futuristic version of

GTA. Nothing new there. GTA and Rockstar

have been doing this for decades. I

remember when I was 10 years old and I was

playing GTA 1, and that was 20 years ago,

and doing exactly the same thing they're

doing now in Cyberpunk 2077. So not really

anything new here. I don't understand why

people are making such a massive fuss over

this game. It's just like having some kind

of futuristic Cyberpunk skin or mod over

GTA. The next disappointing thing about

the game are the graphics. Now it's

supposed to be a next-generation video

game. This is one of the latest video

games of all time, of this year, could

actually be the very latest game of this

very month, and the graphics are just not

impressive. They look okay, they look

fine, don't get me wrong, but it doesn't

blow me away. I still look out the window

of my bedroom and still think, wow,

real-life graphics still look much better

than video game graphics. And this is

supposed to be cutting edge, bleeding edge

technological advancements in video game

graphics, and this is it. It's kind of

Kind of disappointing, isn't it? It's

just, I don't know, I was expecting

something a bit more amazing, but no,

this is what we got. Now obviously this is

a story-driven game. It's not just a

multiplayer game or a sandbox game. It's a

heavily story-narrated video game,

and the story and the characters play an

important part. And so far, I just

honestly cannot say that I give a damn

about the story or the characters. All the

characters so far just seem to be random

generic stereotypes of characters. You

know, you've got the tough big guy,

you've got the nerdy kind of feminine

dainty guy, and then you've got all of

these bad guys that are like mobsters or

thugs and they act tough and they act hard

and they're working for some kind of big

mafia boss, blah blah blah. It's like so

copy and paste kind of story that's not

original. It doesn't seem original.

There's nothing about the story that

really jumps out and catches my interest.

Now when it comes to the gameplay, it's

very important for a game to have good

gameplay, and this is a shooting game, so

you'd expect the shooting gameplay to be

top-notch. But after playing it for about

20 minutes, I just cannot say that the

shooting gameplay is very good. The main

thing I don't like about it is when you

shoot at enemies, you get these numbers

that pop up in front of you, and I just

don't like games where they show you

numbers as damage It just kind of takes

away the realism and the illusion that

you're actually shooting someone. So most

games, it takes several shots to kill

someone, and obviously there's going to be

a hitbox and they're going to have a

maximum number of HP points, and then when

it reaches zero, they die. And in most

games, they don't show you this because it

makes it less realistic, and I don't like

it. It makes the gunplay just seem kind of

annoying. You just got these stupid

floating numbers popping out all over the

place. When I shoot someone in a video

game, I want it to actually feel like I've

shot someone, and I want that satisfying

feeling of virtually shooting someone.

With the pop-up numbers flying everywhere,

it just takes away that immersion.

There's nothing really special about the

gameplay or the gunplay. You got your

typical pistols, shotguns, machine guns,

grenades, some gadgets that do, you know,

pretty generic things like disabling

shields or disabling gadgets or stunning

the enemies or doing damage over time.

There's nothing new, nothing unique about

this game in any way at all.

The music in the game is pretty good. I

have to say, I do quite like the music and

the art design, and I think that is the

main reason why everyone's so excited

about this game and why it's gotten so

much hype. It's because, yeah, the game

does look cool, it sounds cool, it's got a

cool art design, a cool aesthetic, and the

whole cyberpunk futuristic theme isn't

something that's been too overdone

recently, so it does feel kind of fresh.

And the music and all of the artistic

design has been done extremely well, and

there is a really good cinematic feeling

when you watch the trailers and you watch

the gameplay clips. It is a cool looking

game, but I think people are going to be

very disappointed like I was when you

actually play the game and realize that

After all of the cinematics and dramatics

have faded away and you've gotten used to

the music and the art style, what you're

left with is a pretty basic bog-standard

shooter with role-playing game elements—

character upgrading, gun upgrading, maybe

there's a talent tree. And multiple

choices isn't really something that's new

in 2020. Back in my day, I remember when

multiple choice started to become a thing

in games like Fable, and people were blown

away by the fact that you could have some

kind of direct effect and change which

direction the story was going in. But

these days, it's, you know, it's a pretty

overdone gameplay mechanic. My advice

would be never get too excited, never get

your expectations— don't let them get too

high because you're just going to get

disappointed. And I do feel like a lot of

people are going to be disappointed with

this title. It seems like people thought

this new game was going to save their

lives, save their marriages, bring them

out of depression, make them remember what

happiness feels like. But none of these

things are going to happen. If you're

interested in the story, then just watch a

YouTube video of someone playing the game

with only the story cutscenes. That way

you don't have to go through all of the

tedious gameplay and gunplay. So in

conclusion, this game probably sucks. I'd

give it a 2.2 out of 10. Very

disappointing, very boring. I'm gonna go

back to playing Darkest Dungeon, which is

an actual real proper video game, not like

this rubbish.
