Yep, I'm a little surprised about that too. Even though I don't agree that cyberpunk is (only) night style.

Sunrise and sunset times in Los Angeles

Just my opinion, but it's not really a sunset/sunrise problem which seem quite accurate for late spring/early summer in this latitude. It's all matter of "when" luminosity start to increase before the sunrise. It start to increase around 2:30 AM and is way too high, way too soon. Luminosity should increase around half an hour before the sunrise at max (so around 5:00AM).
I'm pretty confident it should be fixed in a futur update, because the problem became really obvious in 1.5.

That and maybe a little luck of oh, I dunno, 1 or 6 gigs or a rainbow V and Judy could see together in Beautiful evening.
Noticed too the first time I played. But because the game seemed to illustrate full summer, assumed the story took place around the longest day. And since I preferred to play during daytime, payed no heed. Don't think it's a bug though, but could be wrong.
Of all bug fixes how is this not fixed yet
?
21 hour day and a 3 hour night on a Cyberpunk genre game lol. They fix things like a door not jamming or a gun drop etc. but not this?
Talk about misguided development priorities.

Real time 24h mod on Nexus
It allows the time to pass one minute by actual minute and you can set the time to whenever you want. So in your few hours play it can be actual night time if you prefer.[...]

I (re)read the thread and as always, for those who find that (really) annoying, there is a good way to keep CDPR aware of this issue which is way more efficient than posting on the forum...

This was my initial thought, but a little bit of research turned up a simple reality of nuclear fallout: it's invisible. It doesn't emit light. So that's not it.
Plus, it's the same in The Witcher Series, though that I excused as being northern enough in latitude that the days might simply be longer...except that this should then happen during summer, not autumn. (Unless the "Northern Realms" are in the southern hemisphere of the planet.)
Thus, I must think this is either an engine goof, or a quirky design decision.
I now excuse it in both games as follows:
Geralt has witcher senses, which increase his eyes' sensitivity to light. Thus, that's how his cat-eyes see the sky at 2:30 am. Whereas V has augmented eyes. It's like he's a bloody witcher or something.
And then my brain can relax and the suspension of disbelief can settle like a warm blankey as I proceed to read a newspaper from across the room at 2:30 am with the lights off.
I totally agree. The timing is all jacked up. It shouldn't start getting light until at least 5am. I find it really breaks the immersion. It's pretty weird to be flying down the road at 3AM and the sun is already rising. IMO I think they just just delay the sun rise / sky brightening by about 3 hours and they'd be on target.
mmmm... reminds me of one sleep theory that says the earth use to be a 25 hour cycle not 24 as it is now (mostly).
" Our biological clock was thought to drift toward a 25-hour day unless it is set back an hour
each day by exposure to morning light and to external clocks. This situation is
blamed for a long list of sleep problems."
