+ Story + Gameplay (especially after the huge 2.0 upgrade) + Look and Feel of the World - Not enough Quests and Story
I have enjoyed this DLC so bloody much, I wish the Developers actually opted to wait and see how it would turn out before deciding to stop development there. It's such a pity, I wish we would get more content. The story was very nice to listen to and play, the quests whether main or side were all enjoyable to complete. And as always most if not all quests, have different outcomes depending on your decisions and actions in a quest. For example, if a quest states specific requirements, such as not using lethal force. But in any case, to me this DLC has become a must play at this point. Cool story, cool new quests, cool new region to explore, new characters to meet and learn about, new weapons, new clothing and so much more. My hope after this, is that the next game keeps what the Phantom Liberty DLC brought to the table going. Including more DLCs for that new game, not just one. Buuuuuut we shall hold still and wait what happens.
I've had more than 100h of fun and still counting, even though I have seen bugs that would put off the average gamer quite quickly. The story is okay, the options you get to speak with NPCs in every quest are underwhelming to say the least. I expected a lot more though. Such as a questline that belongs to Max-Tac. As I watched the very first Teaser 7 years ago, I was very curious what I will be able to do in that szenario. (SPOILER: You can find the girl from the teaser in the game as a Max-Tac Officer.) The combat seems to have an issue with inconsistency, such as; When I did my Hard Mode playthrough (On my way to start Very Hard soon!) the enemies sometimes kill me in one shot, and somtimes it takes them 3-4 hits until I am down. I am not sure what is happening there, so take that with a grain of salt. As my hardware is Med-End today (1070 stuffs and i7 somethings) the performance holds itself so-so. Had to deploy couple changes, watch guides and use a 3rd party tool to set some other background parameters I don't even know about. But at least I got some FPS I can work with. The controls have been quite...let's say nerve-wrecking experience sometimes. There are situations where I wish the control scheme would be different. But the key mapping is quite limited in what it can do in what the game uses. You can fiddle around with the config files deep inside the games directory, but doing that can only get you so far. Example is: I wanted to only have 1-3 to pull each and every gun out I want. and have Alt as the sole button to put the gun away. (I couldn't care less about the ingame gun wheel and mouse wheel.) In conclusion: The game is well on its way to become a really good game. Only time will tell, and before that happens, I wouldn't recommend buying it YET! Be sure to check youtube videos whenever somebody claims "This new Patch has made CP a blast!!" and so on.
