Let's say the start of this game was failed. Even I thought so but only because I couldn't get used to the gameplay. So I decided to give it some time for updates and got back into the game in September 2022. I restarted a game and I was in for quite an adventure.
I enjoyed this game so much. I wasn't used to first person and I had trouble with having the smallest most invisible crosshair of all times but I quickly got used to all of it and now I don't even use the gun add-ons for shooting because it obstructs my view LMAO. I love that you get to choose your own weapons and style of gameplay and that you get a lot of choice. I was mostly going for a sniper/knife/katana gameplay cause I like it. Knife throwing is just insanely satisfying.
The story is heartbreaking. I truly want to give this game 5 stars but man, V deserves better and I stand by my point. I love the fact they got the gigachad Keanu Reeves to play a character and even if I don't like Johnny much cause he's an asshole, but he's still great and such a cool add in this setting.
Character customization is really fun. In fact, I got attached to my V so much. He was my everything. I love him to this day. I felt like he was part of me. He is also very hot and I would kiss him very much. I love that, yes V already has a set personality kinda, but you can still make canons for your character. And you get to choose who/if you want to romance. You also get to choose the clothes and style and stuff and there's so many options and actual good options for a male character, thank god. Honestly really great.
The world is really great and I truly felt like I was elsewhere when playing. I got really immersed in the game. Plus the music is great and ambiance/sound effect too. I also love how alive the city feels and I didn't feel like NPC were repetitive. Something you'd have events happening and it really felt like I was there because of those.
Also, once I got my first bike, I stopped fast traveling. I was just playing music from my Spotify and driving around the city is honestly so much fun. It's probably the only game that I never use fast travel.
Also I wanna talk about the voice acting because it's amazing and I love how male V sounds a lot. I love how expressive he is and the VA did so well at emotions, I could feel them even if i'm autistic and have trouble identifying emotions sometimes.
Honestly an insanely underrated game. Peak. CD Projekt RED W.
ps: my V is the best, deal with it.
update : with DLC and 2.0 this is a 5 star game and now belongs in my top 5 favourite video games ever. (still coping about the endings though)
