I’ve read a few reviews and it sounds like the stuff CDPR are amazing at — side quests, complexity to main characters, choices having significant weight — are all still amazing.

I’m sure it has bugs, and I’m sure the combat is a bit repetitive, but so did The Witcher 3, and that is basically my favourite game of all time.

The way you interact with the city and quests is pretty much what you expect: Stealth past enemies or shoot them. If you have hacking skills, you can use those. If you’re physically strong, you can take more damage and rush at people with a katana. But don’t expect that you’ll be able to go much deeper than that. This is not a game where you try to talk your way out of fights. You’re not going to follow a guard home, interrogate him, and then infiltrate a facility using that information.

So despite how alive the city feels due to its mind-blowing ray-traced lighting, it’s still sterile. Things don’t just happen in Night City. At its heart, Cyberpunk 2077 is a map game. You choose a quest off the menu and then go and do whatever the developer designed for you.

This philosophy filters down into the world itself and how interactive it really is. You’ll find pachinko machines and arcade games, but you can’t play them. You can scan people to reveal information about them, but I never found a use for that. If you want to have sex, two s***workers appear on your map. You’ll find empty seats throughout Night City, but you can only sit in certain designated chairs and only when the game permits it. If the game wants, you can sit back and drink a beer with a friend, but this is not something you can initiate on your own.

All of this limits the potential for emergent storytelling. You aren’t going to stumble off the main quest line and into a series of unpredictable moments. Instead, CD Projekt Red is the one prescribing all of the action.

And again, those quests are usually pretty fun. But the final product doesn’t feel like a real role-playing game that responds to your decisions.

Best part of RDR2 was how immersive the world was I was hoping cyberpunk improved on the studios worst part of their games but doesn’t seem so. To be fair them medieval and wild west settings are easier to make more believable.

I think the world they created as well as the quests/characters they have seem memorable

But it's not as immersive as RDR2 nor does the story seem nearly as good

RDR2 delivered on its ambitiousness but this game seems to be a conventional open world game

Granted it won't be as bad as Ubisoft or Bethesda but put simply, I think it'll accurately reflect its ad campaign as well as the delays behind it; superficial but still enjoyable

RDR2 definitely delivered on their immersive world, but I think the setting of the game played a big part in that. I’m no fan of the story tbh especially as much as others because of my gripe with it being a prequel and we already knew the ending. I still haven’t beat the game I think out like 60 hrs in it just doing side quests and hunting. I’m still at the sheriff part of the game lol. I still love that game despite barely playing the main story.
