Literally the best RPG ever made, story is amazing, music is amazing, characters are great and memorable.
This game truly hates player agency for an RPG, the first bit of the game, you see Night city off in the distance and think, oh boy it's going to be so awesome to roll into Night city from this desert, and... oh wait, you don't get to do that? When you first enter NC? Ah yes, you're treated to bypassing all of it in a cutscene, then more cutscenes of you meeting various NPCs and doing different jobs, which would have been far more interesting to do than the actual game. Oh well, at least now that I'm in Night City and I can drive around and see some... Wait, whats that? You're a passenger only, for like the first 30 minutes of the game? And also locked into following Jackie around? Well ok, odd choice, but you're the boss. Also driving in this game still sucks majorly, I would rather run everywhere than have to deal with the janky cars and their movement, be prepared to run into alot of other cars (which even the slightest bump makes the law aggro to you)speaking of movement, this game's movement is awful as the player, even with tweaking the settings it just plain old sucks, Gunplay is not smooth for something I would consider a "shooter", a weapon I picked up in one of the early missions just vanished from my hands after a cutscene, never to be seen again, some menus you have to hold a button to get out of, some you dont, some menu exit buttons are different, also who assigns the "B" keyboard button to lower and raise your weapon? and using TAB as your scanner is getting so old when I go to look at the inventory and push TAB, like almost every other game in existence. After a certain part where V is shot, they could have made a whole side quest to track down the guy that shot you and get a little personal revenge but what do you get instead? Oh another cutscene of someone else doing it. The story sucks and has 0 bearing on what happens to V, meaning her fate is sealed no matter what she does, why even play the game at that point if nothing I do matters? Lazy.
