    I just hope they resolve the crashing issues before putting it to bed. I love Cyberpunk, but the game crashes frequently on PS5. We’re talking 3-5 times per session.

    Considering getting it on PC and cloud transferring saves over. Is it stable on PC?

      I played it at launch and don’t think in had a single crash. Possibly 1, but I can’t remember.

      I had at most 2 bugs where I needed to restart the game.

      I’m sure things have only gotten better.

      If you have a good oc it’s stable. Tbh I didn’t know what the fuss was about day one, I had a great experience. Then I learned it’s because red engine was horribly optimized and I just had enough power for it. (I had been saving for a new PC just for cyberpunk)

        My hardware is modest (GTX 1660, Ryzen 5… I wanna say 3600?, 32GB RAM, NVMe storage), and realistically I’d probably play it primarily on my Steam Deck. I don’t need ray tracing - never used it on PS5 because it was that or 60FPS - but framerates are important. Deck’s probably not gonna keep a stable 40 FPS but if I’m playing on my PC I would expect it to run at a stable 60 at 1080p.

          I’ve heard the deck is a surprisingly good system from it. The GTX1660 may be stretched a little thin. I heard people with 2000+ had good experiences, but not from below. But that was also at launch, it’s improved since then

            That’s fair. Could always grab the GOG version since it’s DRM-free, test it on my hardware, then once I confirm it runs the way I want it to actually buy it.
