First of all, YAY I got to use that phrase!
Secondly, personally I think it's a mistake to have gone through the incredible lengths the devs went through to achieve creating Night City, to give me such an amazing open world to play in, but then narratively tell me I'm dying quickly. I mean, it just makes every side-job and gig ring a little hollow. I noticed it when I wanted to buy a particularly expensive car so I gigged pretty hard to earn the eddies and it suddenly struck me: What the hell am I doing? This makes no sense for my character in-game.
They built an incredible world for me to play in, then gave my character an in-game reason to not enjoy it, while at the same time trying to give me the player tons of reasons to explore and enjoy it.
I think I'd like the option of creating a character not tied to the main storyline.
100% Agree. Ending really ends this game, I see no point in playing again. In fact I've already uninstalled it and bought Asassin Creed Odyssey - what a GAM OF GAME! Hole shit bolls. That's RPG, I just made entire island sick with one choice :/ Ooops! Scale of that game and content in it is overwhelming.
In science-fiction realm (in cyberpunk on top of that!), with so many possibilities CDPR just choose to go soap opera, what a shame, what a waste of opportunity to twist our minds. Remeber first impression of Matrix anyone? After getting out of cinema, I really couldn't tell if I'm in the matrix or RW. Damn!
And for real, creating a game, with ability to replay it again and again, making your character die at the end is just stupid. I don't mind go out in the blaze of glory, but where is my choice? I already wrote that in some other thread, but entire story reminds me of Game of Thrones, epic story with epic failure of an ending, makes you wish you never saw it in the first place.
I really hope, they will sort it out, I hate waste in any form. I hope they will give us more complex endings, more opportunities to affect a world. I wish them best and keep my fingers crossed for them.
Back to AC Odyssey then, Kassandra will finally have sex with older lady
She deserves a rest after all that beautiful and gorgeous slaughter!
Cheers!
