The console versions are supposedly significantly worse than PC, to the point of being unplayable

4-5 hours through on a ps4 and it crashed twice, with one or two graphics glitches. Im really enjoying it and think it looks amazing, but then again I walk around slowly so maybe missing the rendering issues.

Obviously though there are some issues effecting some players far more than others, could have got lucky.

I'm playing it on an Xbox Series X and have only run into a couple bugs that weren't game-breaking.

What surprises me is how lackluster the visuals are compared to last-gen games like Horizon Zero Dawn and Ghost of Tsushima. I'm playing both on a PS4 Pro and Cyberpunk doesn't hold a candle to either of them graphically.

I just finished playing The Witcher 3 on Xbox and feel Cyberpunk is far far below the visual quality of The Witcher. Partly because the HDR is so washed out, but there simply isn't nearly as much detail to it.

The game looks gorgeous on PC. Probably doesn't look as good on the consoles.

It seems to me that PS4 version has to be significantly worse than Xbox version because otherwise I don't see where the issue comes from.

I play it on Xbox one S and don't experience any kind of game breaking bugs. On the other hand at least on XB one S the first loading screen is completely messed up which makes one question how that could possibly pass Microsoft's QA.
