This is my first time replaying this game since launch. When I first played this game I did actually love it even though the launch was terrible and it was a broken game, it even became one my favourite game but low down on that list due to its broken state.

after doing my first play through 3 years ago I wanted to do another play through but I decided to hold off and wait for the game to be fixed to a capacity so I could really enjoy it and now 3 years later I finally get to replay this game in working order lol, and my god was it fucking great!

this 2.1 update has really changed this game so much, firstly the game actually works and plays great, mechanics have either changed or been fully redone for instance, the police system works great now and they actually do stuff. The new skill tree with the reworked skills is amazing feels like the skills actually do stuff and you can make proper builds as I was a net runner, who specialises in snipers and pistols and I was able to do this setup properly and it fully work! So much of this game has been redone it's crazy and it all has made the game so much better than it was before.

Its not perfect, there can be minor bugs every now and again but they have been barely noticeable or a hinderance, had 1 crash. all this compared to the issues I faced on launch is night and day!

Also on my first play through I did play it on PC, but for this play through I decided to do it on ps5 as I wanted to know how it was on console, also platinum trophy. I was actually surprised at how good it plays on ps5!

I'm so happy I decided to wait on this game for another try since launch as this new update has fixed so many issues I had with the game and just made it a lot more fun, and I was able to fully play through the game in a proper way it felt like this play through was a true play through of this game,

I even got platinum trophy!

This game has definitely became one of my favourite games and is high on the list too!
