    Gotta be Cyberpunk 2077 right now, for me at least. The stories are engaging, the choices you make will actually affect the game, there’s so much combat variation that you can replay the game a million times and have a different style every single time, and to top it all off the eye candy is the best I’ve seen in any game so far.

      Why do I only see people talking about the graphics but either never mention gameplay or say it’s too mundane or dull and not worth the hours to get through it?

      I see it a lot used as a benchmark but no or very little mention of replay value.

        Personally, I adored the gameplay. I put maybe 60 hours in and still had the energy to start a second playthrough (though never got far in it). That’s rare for me with such long games. Usually by the time I finish the game, I’m like “yup, I’ve had enough”. The story is fantastic and the gameplay is super open. Can go in guns a blazing (with all sorts of weapons, including “smart guns” with target seeking bullets), be stealthy, slow time and get up close and personal, keep your distance and use hacks that can even spread from enemy to enemy, and more. The romantic interests are great and also feel realistic. The plot is dark and doesn’t shy away from what I envision a dystopian sci-fi reality being like.

        And yeah, it is a beautiful world, too. I found it highly immersive because of that.

        It’s not perfect. Civilian, police, and driving AI is by far its weakest point. The world feels vibrant and interesting, but don’t expect much from civilian interactions, drivers are basically on rails, and police teleport to you. But those issues were fairly minor to me. I’d give it a 9/10. Obligatory mention that I played on PC. I’ve heard older consoles were buggy, but I didn’t see much for bugs on PC.

        (Typing this up made me wanna play it again, but I gotta wait for the DLC.)
