They also showed biliarde which i think i remember in some fps implemented ok. Also those things might be showed just to show that npc in city do shit and have some activities and life of their own. But i would doubt cyberpunk wont have side side activities. Lets hope for hoops i guess 
I admit that I have not played every game on that list. I'd argue that E.Y.E. Divine Cybermancy was a full-on shooter with some talking at the base to go along with it, but I found that game - and in particular the game's translations - so awful that it's one of only two games I've ever asked Steam for a refund on.
I think the main point being tiptoed around here is that games CAN contain elements of multiple genres, and how much they lean towards one genre vs. the other has a HUGE impact on how much people are going to like it.
Games like Bethesda's fallout offerings are much more shooter than the ones Black Isle/Interplay turned out in Fallout 1 and Fallout 2.
I think that's why CDPR was so very quick to step in and correct the wording that some journalists were putting out that the game is going to be a FPS. They very distinctly and firmly said that it was going to be a FPP RPG. They've emphasized repeatedly that it's going to be a "true RPG" so they're very aware of the concern of going to far in the shooter genre direction for some of their core fanbase. But everything I've read says that the combat is almost exclusively going to FPS.
People are understandably upset that they thought this game would lean far more towards the RPG genre than it is sounding like. (SO FAR. Still a lot we don't know.)
Edit: Last thought. How much of each genre a game is allowed to have and still be considered an RPG is obviously highly subjective by the many pages of disagreement over the matter. Another reason that CDPR was quick to jump in and hastily clarify that their game is an RPG. They're obviously worried that not everyone is going to agree with them on that based on what they've shown and said so far.
I was actually personally expecting CP2077 to be an FP game, due to the setting as well. As how I see it, CP2077 in rather cramped and densely build city landscape. I can see how all those narrow alleys and nooks could cause problems if the game was in 3rd person. I think DL would be a perfect basis for melee combat as I liked also how well it was done and it was fun.
However, I do understand people who might be upset about CP2077 being FP only, due to the motion sickness that is. But we also have to remember that it is going to be different from the Witcher series and I have full trust in CDPR to offer us a great experience in FP as well. There are also quite a few tricks to prevent the motion sickness effect in FP mode as well and I am pretty sure CDPR will make good use of them as well.

What? it was posted just hours ago...are you hallucinating or what?
They did talk about "ducking from cover to cover" in one of the articles, but I think that was just flavour talk...
I mean if you count making a major, massive MMO, completely dismantling it and then salvaging parts of it to make a loot box fps....sure.
An opinion can either be agreeable ot not, based on facts or not, but never wrong.
No truer words spoken. My friends and I have been waiting on this damn game for 5yrs in the making and they manage to botch all positive expectations by making it one perspective. Awful decision...just awful. We've decided not to buy....
I agree, the same thing I wrote on the DICE forum, immediately after the release of Battlefront 2...
I understand your frustration bro....my friends and I are not buying until they give us a middle ground to work with. If everyone follows suit then they will have no choice but to listen to wat fans really want. Funny thing is it shows how much they pay attention to these forums because they should have NEVER believed this was a good idea!
Yes, ignoring the amazing cinematic trailer, praise by journalists who have gotten to see the game, a total lack of outrage relative to the userbase on twitter and reddit, they really cocked it all up by making it first person.
Greedy lootbox systems don't really seem like much of an artistic choice.I agree, the same thing I wrote on the DICE forum, immediately after the release of Battlefront 2...
I think it's reasonable to expect this.
And let me add something. We all know Night town is a dark place with small alley's and cramped places. I can also imagine you sometimes have to crawl trough shafts to reach data nodes and that kind of stuff. Can you imagine what an horror that would be (camera placement for instance) in 3th person? The camera would disappear behind walls, and flip fanatically between view points, or you would see the shaft or ally from the outside, showing the game building templates. Ugh!
Also - For those that want to add 3th person view. Have you thought how much work his would be? Only think about the animation. How many hours of mocap has to be done to add in all that 3th person stuff? And, referring to the above, how many stuff has to be re-designed to fit both first and 3th person in locations? My guess is it would add months or even years of work to rewrite all that stuff. No - I do not know anything about CDPR as developer, but I do know about game design, and that it is far from easy to do stuff like this.
What I want to say in a nutshell - Don't have too high hopes 3th person perspective will be added at this stage of the game.
Truth be told, i ALWAYS ignore journalists, cause i've NEVER seen a bad review (from the main media at least). So, their reviews are just plain BS.
Your opinion on the matter of lootboxes or the company is irrelevant here.
The point was, Overwatch was their first FPS and they pulled it off magnificently, so why not CDPR?
Since when we are discussing FPS? Oh yeah new CD Project game. But wasn't it FPP RPG?
