I don’t mean that someone has done a tech analysis and concluded that it runs a bit worse on PS4 than, say, Xbox - I mean we’re literally being told ‘don’t buy it on PS4,’ by both CD Projekt Red itself and PlayStation. Instead, both recommend using the juicier PS4 Pro, or just straight up using a PS5. It’s worth noting that the game is not out on PS5 - the PS4 version is compatible, but the PS5 version of the game, along with the Xbox Series X/S versions, is still in the works on top of the game’s still ongoing bug fixes and DLC.

It’s a ghost town, and regardless of my own thoughts on Cyberpunk 2077’s quality or themes, it’s clear that this is a shadow of the game it once was.

I don’t know if the PS Store can detect the difference between a PS4 and a PS4 Pro, but putting out a tweet essentially saying "you can buy this, but don’t," is horrifically anti-consumer. There are definitely players who are going to buy this on their regular PS4s - PS5s are notoriously hard to get and for literally every other game, the standard PS4 works. I know, I had the base version of the console last gen and had zero issues with its performance aside from it running a little loud. These players will be buying it because if they want to play Cyberpunk 2077, they have no other options, and they might not have even seen the tweet telling them not to.

Gameplay is controlled through decks of cards that are drawn. Each draw provides you with three new cards that kick off certain actions. Some repeat often, like taking a walk and getting some fresh air. Others are story-driven based on the storylines you’ve encountered. Maybe you’re looking for someone specific. A related card might appear that will lead you down the path to finding them. Most cards come with different options/decisions, each of which has a percentage of success assigned to it. Cyberpunkdreams is very much high-risk, high-reward. If you select an option with a low percentage of success, you’ll either be handsomely rewarded or strictly punis


Upon entering the game for the first time, there’s a bit of a learning curve. I wouldn’t go so far as to say it’s super steep, but the interface can be a little overwhelming until you spend some time with it. There’s also often a vagueness in the narrative that takes some getting used to. However, I think this adds to the game’s immersive experience.
