Great game that's come far from how bad it was on release. Lots of places to explore and enemies to shoot.

Story is a slow burn but the side missions with the characters (Judy) is top tier in getting you invested. The characters are really well made and feel realistic enough to pass as real people. Near the end of the story I got hooked on whats happening around me. I do like the different endings that can happen based off of what you do and how you choose actions in certain story points.

Gunplay is ok but it feels like once you get an elemental SMG the game is so easy even on higher difficulties as I didn't even have to use my sandevistan (slowmo) or other abilities. The skill tree is pretty mediocre as not much changes except stats when you put points in certain skills.

The main thing I loved doing is reading the lore in the game about the different factions, buildings, characters, etc. The best thing is when the action dies down and your just walking around listening in on the npcs and looking at the amazing landscape around you. It really does feel like a futuristic city and each segment of Night City is very different from the other.

Unfortunately replayability is there not not worth doing as only the beginning where you choose your life is different and doesn't really change much dialogue throughout the whole game.

Overall a really good masterpiece game that I highly recommend playing. Also the anime (Cyberpunk Edgerunners) is a must watch!
