If you looking for some negatives then a few publications noted them in their previews.
We'll have to see how it all balances out come release.
It’s also important to mention that my four hours with Cyberpunk 2077 weren’t perfect. I barely got a chance to use any of the hacking or stealth skills I invested so many of my first upgrade points into, such as disabling an area’s security cameras, unlocking all the doors in the vicinity, and throwing daggers like a ninja, among others. Admittedly, though, that’s more of a time-limit problem than a game problem. And for what it’s worth, I didn’t even see Keanu Reeves’s Johnny Silverhand the entire time I played, so it remains to be seen how large a role he plays.
I can definitively say that, in the build I played, the inventory management was a bit clunky, with some gear and upgrade screens best described as annoyingly unintuitive. So too were some of the tutorials (though at least those were short-lived), and the driving controls didn’t feel particularly good either – though I appreciated the option to drive from a third-person view. But most, if not all of these issues are exactly the kinds of things CD Projekt Red can spend the next four-plus months ironing out.
Regrettably, the gunplay feels stiff and cumbersome, and on occasion I found myself unable to carry out the sequence of strafes and shots I had planned out in my mind. When you do land your shots, however, it always feels satisfying, with damage numbers, muzzle flash, and plenty of recoil all vying for your attention.
