#This would affect more of the flavortext than anything

Are we able to choose MC stats like make them really smart but terrible at combat

At it's core, the answer is yes. You can prioritize smarts over choosing to use weapons stat wise. Story wise, I'm not fully sure. The original plan was to have MC be pretty knowledgeable in a chosen weapon and be able to hold their own in a fight at the very least. But plans can change.

Is that something you guys might like? Would you rather have a pretty well rounded MC with some stats that are higher, or a kind of min-maxed MC, who can be great at some things and terrible at others?

After playing Cyberpunk for a few hours i am having Thoughts about the open world aspect and some general stuff...

Things i like: - Its fucking gorgeous to look at, honestly. I love the details and the lighting and things, but especially the details. No, GTA5 doesnt have such a detailed world, stop lying to yourself. I seriously spend most of my time just walking around and looking at things

- Lots of stuff to interact with. Love when i can not only look at things but also Do things with them. The more the merrier, nothing is too mundane

- Its more "vertical" than most other open world games Ive played, especially those set in a city environment. So far i havent seen a game that lets you explore more than street level so freely (except for Assassins Creed). Love every opportunity to get high up too, it adds even more space to fuck around in. And more stuff to look at and interact with. Nice to know that the buildings arent just tall to look good but you can also be explored in a more vertical sense.

- Wow there are kids for once!

Things that irked me and i would like it if they would change in future updates but they arent like... Awful: - The NPC models are really repetitive..... Like.. PS2 era repetitive. The one thing i have to admit GTA5 did great. I think i only saw NPC models repeat once or twice in there.

- There isnt enough traffic for such a giant city. Its just not plausible.

- Same with NPCs. Not enough of them.

- I havent seen public transport yet? It kinda breaks immersion for me personally. Night City is supposedly a giant city and youre telling me there isnt a metro or whatever? I read there is a train or something and im just in the very beginning of the game but.. Yeah i havent seen anything yet. I wanna at least see that it exists, or else the city doesnt feel like a living breathing world. The best would be if i can actually use it since.. well.. GTA3 already had a working public transportation system, even if it was very very rudimentary, that the player can use and that game came out in 2001.

- The Leisure type of activities is.... lacking. Listen, sometimes i just wanna fuck around. And play tennis. Or.. i dunno... Laser Tag idgaf.

- RPG style inventory with people selling you stuff is.... wrong. Also the pictures are too tiny i cant even see what im buying. It just feels wrong. I should see the clothes on my character, dammit. San Andreas did it perfectly. Be more like San Andreas

Things that seriously bother me and actually would affect the score greatly if i was a video game journalist person: - Why the fuck cant we untag missions, come onnnnnnnnnn. Its seriously annoying. No open world game should force you to do missions just because youre so damn annoyed with the marker on the map AND the HUD.

- First person SUCKS for open world games. There, i said it. Yeah its a pain in the ass to animate but if So Many other games of the same genre that are like 20 years older have done it, theres just no excuse. Like man, you let me make my own character and get clothes and hairstyles and shit and then you wont even let me SEE IT????

- For the love of god please let me increase the text size i am BLIND I CANT READ. I dont wanna have to slam my nose into the screen just to read flavortext or.. you know... VITAL INFORMATION. Subtitles mean shit if i cant read them. The overall lack of accessibility options is really getting to me for the first time when playing video games and that really means something.

And i still dont know if the junk you can find on the streets respawns and googling it wasnt helpful either
