    Not gonna lie, I’ve sunk around 100 hours into this game(no dlcs), and it’s felt like such a one-trick pony. Good main story is well written. Cool. Indeed.

    Gameplay is so incredibly ass after the first 20 minutes, where the game looks promising, so it builds anticipation for all the rpg systems, that fail hard at their jobs. Economy, Levels, and crafting, are ass the moment you start using them.

    And by god, the secondary writing of the micro-quests that are supposed to make the world feel lived in was “passable filler” at its best, and the “Follow the Orange Highlight” was unavoidable half the time.

    It is a game that was cobbled together around a book’s story, and honestly has aged horribly.

    And honestly, seeing them re-release it a-la Skyrim, after Cyberpunk’s whole ordeal, feels like such a Corporate move.

    (Getting it in before someone tries to tell me it’s going to have revamped systems according to the release trailer, forgive me for not trusting the company until the game comes out and we see the results… In the meantime, I’ll be waiting to see how much they charge for the repair and prettying up of a game they already made ten years ago. I hope I’ll be proven to be just a negative Nancy.)
