After playing this game for 28 hours i can not finish it. The further i progressed in the game the more crashes appeared. my save file is at 3MB now and basically doing anything crashes the game instantly. game breaking bugs as the helicopter mission not ending seem to be "normal" for everyone to get. The sheer ammount of graphics glitches would be quite funny if the whole package wasnt so nervewrecking and sad to waste your time with. At least in between the crashes you get to laugh about npcs sitting in the air. The open world tries to impress you with its massive skyscrapers and deserves to be explored, as soon as you do that you will be punished by weird/missing collision boxes and death barriers. In your home skyscraper there is an entire floor modelled, with npcs and shops but it seems to have been cut last minute. even if you manage to parcour your way down you instantly die. The story does not fit for an open world game. You are railroaded through the missions, choices dont matter and you are psychologically pressured into continuing the main story instead of exploring on your own. I looked up the endings since i can not finish the game and calling them depressing would be very mild. The police is an absolute nightmare. Just looking at them the wrong way will get you killed within seconds, even killing gangs sometimes calls them. Now lets get to the positive stuff: In there is a really nice core game and you really notice the love that went into it. The atmosphere of just walking arround the city is amazing. This futuristic dystopia with calming mallsoft vaporwave playing in the whole city is undescribable. Gameplay is as you would expect from a looter shooter. Guns feel satisfying to use, they feel at least somewhat balanced from the double barrel shotgun to the heavy sniper and there is enough combat arround every corner to not get boring. On a RTX 3080 i got between 45 and 60fps on 1080p ultra (no DLSS) I genuinely can not recommend this game.
