Deserves a second chance
I got this game at launch and was disappointed along with everyone else. Countless reviewers said this game was trying to do too much and didn't have a chance to compete with GTA V. Bugs were everywhere and worst of all the performance sucked which was why I put it down. After path 1.6 I picked it back up and I had the complete opposite experience. The gameplay is smooth and plays like the best of shooters while also having really good customization and progression. The world is immersive, the characters are well written, animations are top of class and the plot is pretty good. The best part of it in my opinion is the world it establishes. I want to know more. I want to know the history of the corpo wars and I want to see what they do with AI in the future. The plot seems a bit rushed, like they were intending on fleshing it out in DLC or Cyberpunk 2. While I'm very disappointed in how this game launched, I'm even more disappointed that it didn't do the creative vision justice and let it get a series or succesful games. In a world where IP is recycled endlessly, I think it will get its chance one day. I really hope this game doesn't join Fallout: New Vegas as one of the best games of all time that nobody played because of an abysmal launch. I'm STILL mad about Fallout: New Vegas...haha
