Cyberpunk 2077 Trick Lets Players Completely Avoid Fall Damage
Broadly speaking, there are three basic types of bugs. Some are fun but harmless, like the GTA Trilogy bug where the player’s car inflates several times its size.

In fairness to CD Projekt Red, glitches like this aren’t unique to Cyberpunk 2077. As one Reddit commenter pointed out, many games have similar glitches. For example, anything that interrupts a player’s movement could theoretically cause a game to lose track of their momentum. This includes everything from abusing the
