Not gonna lie, I've sunk around 100 hours into this game(no dlcs), and it's felt like such a one-trick pony. Good main story is well written. Cool. Indeed.
Gameplay is so incredibly ass after the first 20 minutes, where the game looks promising, so it builds anticipation for all the rpg systems, that fail hard at their jobs. Economy, Levels, and crafting, are ass the moment you start using them.
And by god, the secondary writing of the micro-quests that are supposed to make the world feel lived in was "passable filler" at its best, and the "Follow the Orange Highlight" was unavoidable half the time.
It is a game that was cobbled together around a book's story, and honestly has aged horribly.
And honestly, seeing them re-release it a-la Skyrim, after Cyberpunk's whole ordeal, feels like such a Corporate move.
(Getting it in before someone tries to tell me it's going to have revamped systems according to the release trailer, forgive me for not trusting the company until the game comes out and we see the results... In the meantime, I'll be waiting to see how much they charge for the repair and prettying up of a game they already made ten years ago. I hope I'll be proven to be just a negative Nancy.)

Well fuck me, I'll take that L. I was proven a negative Nancy.Complaining about a free upgrade to a game you personally didn't like is weird. What, you have to go out of your way to let us know you don't like it? Dude you're literally a meme.
I'm extremely curious what other games you have played where sidequest content is better written than in W3.
The issue I had was that there were too many and you had level progression issues with too much xp if you did most of the sidequests in a area and they didn't update so it was dumb to do it later when you come back and you're way overleveled.
Yeah that's a much more reasonable criticism. There is an option to enable enemy upscaling which helps if you get overleveled.
It's free. It's there in the trailer.
Well fuck me. I'll take that L.

You're giving me Zelda-Breath-of-the-Wild-fan vibes
A game which came out after the Witcher 3 and Red Dead Redemption 2, and learned nothing from the best.
