I don't usually say thing like this, because I think it's not fair to place medical diagnoses on people, bu I'm fairly sure that people who think all cyberpunk settings require eternal night and rain because that's the way Bladerunner did it have some sort of mental damage. It's like saying you can't have a fantasy setting without hobbits and magical rings.
It looks bland (in this pre-alpha build) - but I appreciate that it is FPS, like VtM:B and DX and F:NV, and not 3rd person like GTA and other dumb shit.
I'm cautiously optimistic and for the first time in a long time, I'm feeling ... slightly excited for an upcoming game.

Hey, William Gibson approves of the way they did the daylight parts, who are we to complain?
The thing that has me excited was when you had the gun to your head during the conversation with the Corp lady. When you looked at her, you had dialogue options. When you looked at the guy with the gun, you had a “grab the gun” option. That’s fucking awesome, and it has a ton of role playing potential. I know they said this kind of stuff is why they made it first person, so I hope there’s a lot of it, with your dialogue options changing based on where you look.
I downloaded the reveal in glorious 4k, upped the contrast and lowered the gamma. Game looks fucking magnificent. I am thrilled to see what will be possible to achieve using a well-crafted Reshade preset on the finished product.
I'll be honest, it's been a long time since I was so excited for a game.
And if nazis would work on it then anything that would have had an "coming out" would land in an concentration camp, that are mostly located in Poland, so in that matter the way wouldn't be that long.
You guys are missing the point. It's not the fact that game has daytime that's the problem, it's the tone seem in the images and trailer that don't make it feel like a Cyberpunk setting.
There are good Cyberpunk stories that have set pieces during daytime, but even during those set pieces their mood is still consistent with what the setting represents and it's themes. Unlike the vibes Cyberpunk 2077 has. Compare the following:
Despite their different places their atmosphere is consistent with the setting. These feel depressing almost hopeless.
Now comparing with ''Cyberpunk'' 2077:
Everything is so clean, colorful and vibrant. Isn't this supposed to be a fucking dystopia?
They also fails at small and quite logical details of the setting. For example, 'punks' are supposed to be the counterculture. However here they are shown advertisements. So... wouldn't that make it the opposite of a counter culture?
Even when comparing to the original Cyberpunk artwork and descriptions, this game makes no connection:
Or even general 80's Cyberpunk aesthetics:
Hell even when the man that defined the setting/genre says that it isn't very Cyberpunk.
As for the GTA V comparisions. No it's not autism, the city looks similar to LA and this trailer they showed resembles a lot of the first GTA V trailer, even in tone:
What criteria are we using for proper shooting here, because proper shooting in reality involves aiming at the torso because the head is too small a target (unless you're sniping a stationary target from a safe distance of course).
To be honest it has this... New Vegas meets Deus Ex vibe to it, I like it
So far everything CDPR does has been great to me so I trust this will be another enjoyable game with great narrative, mature themes, top of the line C+C and some nice graphics... who knows if they will be able to pull off the FPS aspects to be like in Stalker (your equipment and accuracy decide) New Vegas (attributes decide damage and hit ratio) or Borderlines (shooting galore for all boys and girls)
I have not read neuromancer or androids in like 15 years but to my knowledge they nailed the garish, neon light and noir themes, and if William Gibson say it is ok (as in pretty much the father of cyberpunk) who am I to disagree?
Surprised, aesthetically solid, seems decently well written for the boring quest they showed. Now to see if they can pull a good game and that quality for 20 hours +.
You can totally create your own character though! (S)he will always have the same annoying as fuck personality but you can change how (s)he looks! ROLEPLAYING!
