Good "try" but clearly not enough
So after 200 hours of testing ( builds, gameplay elements) i give it a 2 star because instead of a well developed role playing game with a loot and shooter element what we get is action first person shooter with light loot and rpg element.
What add up in it is that some things are broken or plain useless: example i can give you is some of the implant doesnt work despite having the skill for ( looking at you health on full charge) or some quickhacks stop working when enemies dodge or again last perk on the rifle skill tree ( the one that give bonus damage for standing in place) it should have gone to the light machine gun instead.
Which bring me to my second point where instead of going with skill tree for a gun "family" they should have made the split between pistol/assault rifle/sniper and Dmr/LMG/Shotgun/Tech weapon/Smart Weapon and btw game is really lacking weapons diversity.
Bugs wise, this game is a mess : npc clipping a lot trought wall, npc parts streching, random death do to falling from low high ( like dropped from a floor had no damge, did it again later and insta death)
Quest npc getting stuck, like i said before skill not working, Damage you take or give being miscalculated, npc detection problem ( stealth issue)... and cops like teleportation, crime detection fail and they appear out of thin air.
Can't speak about the story since what i did was some testing so didnt really follow. What i can say is the Jacky Welles ark is forced and should be switch/change. And that there seem to be no branching at all with the quests, youre on a rail way from start to finish.
Welp CD Projekt RED you had my trust...not anymore.
