I do get this. Not wanting to re-open the montage wounds (I *like* the montage!) but a longer period of basically guilt-free mayhem in the more fun, enjoyable Night City we have now, before V gets confronted with the consequences of the Relic, would maybe have made for a really dramatic change of mood.I'm simply never going to agree with the idea that making NC more immersive solves the problem that an immersive NC is at odds with the game's plot
The frustrating thing is these little additions are things I'd love to see if the game wasn't about a doomed protagonist with less than a month to live
