I disagree, with or without taking bugs into consideration. It was a great experience and if you liked the base game you'll probably like the expansion too, if you didn't like the base game then you won't.

Ummm, since we are being critical, I'm going to say that low effort bug reports get sent to the recycle bin on my dev team. Also, what's up with the tone of your post? You sound like you hated Cyberpunk 2077 in general and so you felt the need to scream it from the rooftops.

I've played Phantom Liberty now for a couple days and I've never seen anything you're reporting, so you'll need to give more detail, like are you playing this on PC or Console, and which console? What are your settings? Also lose the bad attitude man, we are all here to have fun.

It's funny to see this because I have found it to be the complete opposite.

First, the amount is surprisingly copious for a DLC. The new area they added is deceptively large because it has so much verticality. The main story missions for Phantom Liberty are also much longer than normal missions. The "like 5" you quoted is ridiculous because not only is it WRONG, it discounts the size of the missions.

They also added a ton of side missions and gigs, as well as two completely new side activities in car missions and supply drops. It's a lot of content and just saying "they only added x number of missions" is reductive and frankly deceptive.

And maybe more important than the amount of content they added, the quality of the content is off the charts. The art style and creativity in the new areas is fantastic. It doesn't feel like just more Night City, it really feels like a different area. It's visually distinct from the original game; you know you're in the new area without being told.

And the missions... the main story missions are completely different than anything in the original game. Fighting through the wreckage of a downed airplane to rescue the president and then getting thrown into a spy story complete with James Bond style banter over a roulette table! Idris Elba is amazing. Even the side missions are interesting with different ways to resolve them.

If you liked CP2077, I don't see how you could possibly not like this DLC. They added more of everything that was good about the original game and did it at a higher level than the original game.

When I think of some of the other DLC's I've paid for that are basically just a few extra missions and maybe a new companion or something, it makes this seem even better.

Now just so I don't sound like a complete fan boy, I will say they added in a bunch of new bugs making the game less stable than it was in 1.63, which is really frustrating. But everyone gets those regardless if you paid for the DLC or not. So as much as it sucks that they added those bugs, it has nothing to do with whether you think the DLC is a good value or not.

What's the point of your post? You think it sucks and regret buying and playing it, OK.

I however enjoyed it very much and I wish CDPR would chuck out more expansions. Now what?

And yes, there are bugs. Show me a game of this scale that does not have bugs. At least it's not a shit show like CP2077 at release date

You’re gonna hurt a lot of CDPR Fanboys’ feelings with this post.

Nah, I'll probably buy it based off of all the other information that's out there for it. There's no shortage of it.

Are the missions long at least or is it something like 6 hours total?

Waiting until I can get both in a "definitive edition" for $20 on sale.

Still the best action-rpg. :D

I think it's a fair criticism, not necessarily one I agree with, but the quantity of content available for the asking price certainly isn't proportional to the base game, although it is quality content, bugs notwithstanding. I think maybe the only game that would come close to it on those terms would be Fallout: New Vegas.

I would hazard a guess that a large part of the pricetag probably isn't just for the DLC though - It's been three years since release and ostensibly the CP2077 dev team has been hard at work fixing the colossal fuckup the game was on launch day, and then some. There's a lot of work that's been put in to the systems overhaul in order to make the base game more functional and enjoyable, and I believe a lot closer to the original vision the team had before the marketing and hype (and death threats) nudged them to push out a rushed product, and all that's getting packed in as a free update for a game that was probably underpriced at the typical $60 anchor point on release in 2020.
