- You know what this game is so I’m just going to speak to my build. I went with a melee build with a focus on Cold Blood to chain quick takedowns. Extremely fun and made 1v1 encounters fairly trivial. Sucked against groups of enemies though, especially if I couldn’t close the gap.

- The main storyline is excellent and a lot of the romance sidequests are pretty good too I romanced Judy in this playthough, but also did Pan Am and River’s questlines. The score of this game is so good and fit so well with whatever was happening on screen. Graphics will vary based on your computer obviously but the city is gorgeous, especially at night.

- When Cyberpunk is good, it’s really good. And when it’s not, it’s extremely frustrating to encounter the lack of polish. It’s a game of high variance and I would have loved to have seen the care put into the main storyline also put into the rest of the world.

- With the 2.0 update coming out that will overhaul a lot of the systems in less than a week, I can’t recommend rushing it right now. But afterwards? Probably. They seem to finally be delivering on the game that was promised on launch. I will probably wait another 2 years and then do another playthrough with a completely differently build.
