2.0 seems like downgrade
After starting new game in 2.01 (played last time in 1.31): 1. Clothes are literally useless now. So much work was put by CDPR to create a lot of different clothes and there was a reason to use new clothes every time in older game. Now, there is 0 reason to mess with, you can just recycle every clothe you get with no impact on game-play. 2. Fewer weapons upgrades, why? It is not a multiplayer game to seeks for balance (which still do not exist). Again i think there was a lot of work to draw assets for modified weapons what not used now. 3. As mentioned others, perk tree is much lighter now with much less perks, for no reasons. And perks are less exiting and.. not really mandatory except few for implant limits to get more armor 4. Stealth is dead. With new difficulty leveling, on hard you just stomp enemies in head-to-head with any builds if you invested in armor.: a. Boxing quest is tremendously easy now, you destroy all boxer just after prologue. As any other enemies. As all psychos. b. More mini-bosses in mini encounters what dodge bullets? Just get any close range weapons. c. Well, do any quest after prologue in any zones, they are all easy now, until... d. Set very hard difficulty. Stop, but stealth is dead. Now you can be found if you try any advanced net-runner scripts. e. Enemies reaction in stealth still lags behind old Deux Ex series. Facepalm. 5. Cars. Old physics was ok'ish. New even worse, especially on keyboard. Why? I played recently GTA SA remaster. Event there car handling is more fun. I stopped to play 2.01 half way primarily for two reasons: - Perks and items upgrade/ management become boring - Combats are boring, or too easy on hard or a stealth gamble on very hard Lucky 1.63 is available trough GOG launcher ("beta-channel"). I restarted from zero and... for now is fan, challenging and can be played different ways. Unfortunately new content is available only on 2.0 patch, and i'm not buying that.
