That and all the neon in hdr. I popped an eye vessel playing this last night. Worth it

Also, I like when little numbers go over peoples heads when I shoot them. Essential part of any game

All it needed was a good writer and it’d be goty for me. Mix this with disco elysium and I would die

I probably mentioned this before but you don’t need a $2k rig to play this with hdr etc. check out GeForce now if you have a good internet connection

I never played the base game, but I think I've seen people suggest starting from scratch?

that's the general recommendation

Is this worth playing now? Should I play this or BG3 after Elden Ring?

Depends on how long until you're going to be ready, I think. My suspicion is that the base game plus dlc is going to hit the sweet spot as far as functionality goes. The base game is pretty solid now, at least as far as my experience on the PC version goes.

this game has gotten a lot better but i was charmed enough by it to begin with that i was kinda disappointed when some update or other suddenly fixed the doppelganger problem wherein the dense city sidewalks had surged and teemed with around nine infinite sets of multiple-birth siblings

maybe it was my hardware
Realistically, probably not until the Christmas holiday - I have ER and TotK to probably keep me going the rest of 2023 for whatever video game time I have left.
But when I bought ER it was either that or Cyberpunk I was choosing from. BG3 wasn't even on my radar. However, I might just cave and get BG3 for Mac OS and Cyberpunk for PS5 and slowly play both simultaneously or something. Or, just maybe, I should give gaming a break for a year and get back into Ableton and write some damn beats again, but that would be crazy talk

Had fun finishing this some months after release. But going back to dink around some time after they first had you reset all your character points, and noping out pretty quick, tells me I'm reeally not an RPG guy. There must be some webpage that could tell me a sensible way to spend the points to be an ok all around character right?

I'm the same way--though I do like RPGs, I don't dig all all that analyzing of point and perk percentages etc. Whenever I start a game like this, I usually just figure out my concept--sneaky sniper, charmer not a fighter, whatever--and just look up builds from those who've already put in the research. If you search "cyberpunk 2077 builds", you can probably find some. I think I used https://fextralife.com/guides/cyberpunk-2077-guides/, though those may be too specialized for your taste. Of course, in many games it's almost irrelevant once you get a certain level, and you can slaughter everyone with two hits.

What I've gathered from the retooled perks is that they've made it a lot more straightforward. The text tells you exactly what each does, what they apply to (weapon types/hacking/movement speed/etc.) and they're divided into tiers that unlock with skill points allocated to a particular aspect. Just browse around a little bit and you're good. I don't think I'll feel the need to look up any guides.
The other thing they seemed to have addressed is how there was a bunch of overlap once your character got to a certain level and you could just be insanely overpowered with little effort
