Wait.. are you suggesting HDR to be disabled from your TV setting or ‘in-game menu setting’? (I have ‘smart HDR’ for my Samsung TV setting as an option.)

I'm a mixture of both, although for Witcher 3 I wish that I would have dropped the difficulty at the final boss fight. I had to retry so many times to kill him it stopped being fun.
Bolded:
I’ll try disabling the film grain from the menu option. That was one of the issues with “The last of us two” from Naughty Dog.
I play in wussy mode, i.e., easy
No reply needed, but A lot of us play in ‘easy mode’. There’s nothing wrong with that. I don’t think anyone should be a labeled/considered a ‘wuss’ just because somebody wants to have a full immersion experience with a game like CDPR. Anyways, just doesn’t seem appropriate to label it ‘wussy’. We’re all gamers on different levels, it’s all about the fun level.
Can someone smart explain to me how to get the free digital goodies? I linked my GoG account and my new clothes show up in the game. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do this on gog.com or their app. These steps are from the PS4 version selected.

edit: Finally got it! This wasn't working for me last night but today I just tried logging out/in from gog.com and now the goodies are showing up under "games".

Easy mode is fine. However I would discourage it if you intend to play online.
I once played a game on easy mode and enjoyed the single mode story over a few weeks.
When I then started playing online i was completely annihilated because my reaction time and approach to battles were not geared for the "real world".
Had my first game crash. All I did was call my car! I had to do the long walk from V's apartment to the street again. Luckily there's lots to look at on the way.

For the PS5 in game. For the Xbox I believe you have to change the system settings but I am not positive.
I couldn't find a HDR toggle in the same and simply disabled HDR in the system settings on my Series X.
New patch out party people!!! Mine is downloading right now. I've read several comments that say it improves visuals on PS5.

No online gameplay for me. The last time I played online Was GTA IV. Strictly campaign for the gaming experience. I personally just enjoy the aspect of the core gameplay, especially from RPG’s.
Well, less than 12 hours later after I made this post, that was quick:
Cyberpunk 2077 1.04 Hotfix Released for PC, PlayStation, and Xbox - IGN
Cyberpunk 2077's buggy launch has its first hotfix, with CD Projekt Red addressing its controversial braindance feature and various technical issues.
This Update does not address repairs for the Xbox, only the PlayStation. (CDPR stated the XBox patch is coming soon.)
If you put a game on easy mode to avoid the risk of dying so you can experience the story, you're negating the point of it being a game. Without the risk factor it's just a story, and inevitably a completely amateurish, bloated, tedious story.
If the people who wrote videogame stories could actually write like they wish they can, they'd be working in the movies.
I usual play games at normal settings. However for Cyberpunk I chose hard as a review mentioned that normal doesn't encourage you to maximise the use of inventory and weapons to complete missions.
However I am happy to dial down to normal if I get stuck somewhere.
I guess there's a bit of frustration and backlash with the game, seems mostly with people on last gen consoles.
I like JuiceHead's videos, he typically covers a lot of fallout news, which is where I started following him.
Here's the video example he was discussing in his YT, where its been discovered Ps4s and xbox ones seem to run at a dynamic 900p normally and during slow downs it drops to 720p. Also it seems the FPS can sink into the sub-20 mark
I'm running this on a fairly new (2019 model) higher end-ish gaming machine with a decent upper mid level GPU (my estimate of upper mid level) and while the CPU is not being overly utilized the GPU seems to be. I'm surprised at how my RTX 2060 super struggles on the game in high detail. I have a nice balance of detail setting and I'm only seeing FPS in the 50s to 40s depending on the busyness on screen

I think l CDPR could have been more honest about the level of performance that previous gen console gamers should expect.
Some who bought the game digitally should be able to request a refund from Sony and MS.
That's the gist of the beginning portion of the JuiceHead's video. He supplied evidence that CDPR told a investor that the game should run very well on legacy consoles. They also showed off console videos, where for the console trailers CDPR showed the PS4 with a car drving very slow, and no combat, that was on the PS5.
Its a wildly popular game and many people are enjoying the game, I don't want to rain on that parade.
As for my take on CP77 I'm a bit overwhelmed/underwhelmed. I guess I ended the prologue without realizing it LOL. Its not as long as I was led to believe but that's ok. I think I'm trying to do too much open wordly-ness and I'm just like level 2. I'm taking a break and I'm going to revisit the game and maybe re-adjust my character and style of play.
I think the pre-orders and pre-load culture needs to die.
Studios are encouraging gamers to FOMO and buy games that have not been demonstrated on all platforms.
I am not just pointing fingers at CDPR but also MS. Their marketing for the Series S is misleading, especially when the majority of gameplay trailers they show are using the Series X.
Going forward it's probably best not to pre order games but wait 48-72hours for non-journalist gameplay.
No question it’s a industry wide issue
I said the same thing after the problems with fallout 76 and I preordered CP77.
Interesting. I'm PS5 and haven't hit any slowdowns. I just did a huge fight with several NPC teammates against enemies that included two large mechs. It didn't slow down for me. I have HDR enabled but all the things such as lens flare turned off.
I assumed that as a nomad I wouldn't see night city for 6-7 hours. I was shocked at how fast I got to night city. Right now I'm playing the mission where you get the chip and it is fantastic.
Big visual improvements.
my dad took my old ps4. First to play fifa then he started actually playing games and loves it. He plays on easy and still dies.
what is easy for some is not for others.it seems hard mode in this game is the actual normal setting. I am playing on normal because thought it was werid that the game defaults to hard but it’s pretty easy as I am use to playing shooters and rpgs.
tho reason people like Nintendo games is because they are easy and you can escape into that world. Tho I loved Ghost of Tsushima, horizon and last of us. Not exactly games you can sit back relax and enjoy.
they are more like Chris Nolan films. Some times you just don’t want to think and watch transformers to see a cgi cluster fk
