Cyberpunk’s launch issues were largely stability/performance related

I played the first release when it came out. There were a LOT of mission-breaking bugs, missing content, much less customization options, entirely missing features, a really messy perk system etc. It feels like a very different game now, since they patched in more content that was initially missing.

Someone did a writeup of all the patches here.

They should’ve pushed back the game at least for another year. 1.05 mostly focused on the cutscenes and Jonny Silverhand/Keanu Reeves since that’s what sold the game initially and left a lot to be desired in other areas.
