i finally finished the game as i spent half of the time reloading because of quest breaking bugs and i feel disappointed, after like 4 hours of gameplay i was already near the end where you have to speak to takemura near the docks i stopped playing and started doing side missions thinking the game was just getting started but no this is all thats left after that parade heist, getting captured, the end, what i thought was a quarter through the game was pretty much the ending, choices didn't matter so why even put them there, when i decided to let v live as johnny v was pushing me getting angry making me think this was the selfish choice i was so confused, the endings also were really disappointing i felt so excited thinking oh my is the epilogue a short story set on a space station do i get to shoot people in zero gravity is there more to this ending this is going to be so much.... oh it's over., those are the thoughts going through my mind as i was approaching the station looking at my character then it just ended
With the witcher i am 1+ years on this game and i still have not finished it i am at the very end now and i got exhausted from it so i paused it a little here and there started the game like a year ago still not finished yet along the dlcs same there i play the game walking through it as i don't want to leave any loot.
one thing i did like and didn't like is that the game resets you after the ending so any choice you make anything you do doesn't matter i am a hoarder so i defeated smasher while being overweight as i didn't want to lose my loot having to dash it was impossible then i realize none of it mattered as i never got to keep my loot any way so i did the other endings and had so much fun not having to worry about picking up loot and saving money on what cyberware to get i got the cyberware i needed for that specific ending i ignored all loot and just ran through it and that was so much more fun than walking through the game because i can't ignore loot, the game also never even hints that takumura can be saved when he is captured so i ran out the building thinking he had escaped i didn't even think he died during the fight then i find out he did die and that you could save him, the game did nothing to tell you this nothing at all.
i feel this game would have been better as a linear game like bioshock much better with more story where the free roaming comes after you finish it, free roaming games ruin the story as you stop focusing on the story itself and get overwhelmed, you could have done so much more with this game added the space epilogue properly, made johnny a bossfight depending on your choices, explore more of the black wall more explanations more lore i feel this game had half of it's story cut out, most of the story you get is the shortstories, panam etc those are good stories in themselves
