This game kinda looks like what Cyberpunk wanted to be.
Is it?
10 bucks aint bad for a labor of love but the store page has literally no gameplay, just trailers.

cyberpunk is a big open world rpg, robocop is a linear fps with small hub areas and a few sidequests
very different games, though both are very good

Cyberpunk isn't much of a game. At least when i played it. It's a bunch of words that lead to nothing. A "real" rpg is more like baulders gate, skyrim, fallout 3 or new vegas... lots of great games. A RPG is meant to be "role playing game" and in Cyberpunk you just follow a linear game of dully designed buildings.
I dont expect this to be an RPG, and Cyberpunk is better played as a room clearing game. I am hoping this game is just that but amazing because it's focused. I think of Cyberpunk as a failed borderlands 2 sequel.

How can Robocop be what cyberpunk anted to be? You do realise how daft that even sounds.
RoboCop is a franchise. It was a series of films long before probably anyone was born that even worked on Robocop or cyberpunk, never mind played the game.
It was even out in the 80s at the arcades and on consoles in the 90s -along with Terminator.
Cyberpunk is a mix of all genres. Blade Runner, System Shock, Deus Ex # etc. There’s not one that defines it.
But RoboCop is a standalone franchise, like Alien
I had more fun playing this than cyber punk, and this game ran a lot better than cyber punk as well for me. It's true cyber punk has since then been largely patched up but it can still be a mess, and it's a shadow of what it was envisioned to be.
I love em both. But i can't compare them, two very different games.

I'm 3 hours in . Could of been a lot farther but I'm a horrible detective. I had fun ticketing a guy for bullying a homeless man and letting a graffiti writer off with a warning.

To answer the original question, I think this feels a lot closer to Cyberpunk than it does to most FPS shooters. You'll spend a lot of time walking around and talking to people, doing some side quests and stuff like that. It has leveling, dialogue choices. Much smaller contained world, but more like Cyberpunk than Call of Duty.

that really doesnt make sense lol. Cyber has 10000x more in it, more to do, more motion, more action, more indepth customization. you have to be smoking crack lol

Is it worth it? is it open world? are the side missions limited? I fell like this game would be over too fast.
They couldn't be more different. Robocop is soo linear that its a stones throw from being a House of the Dead game. Cyberpunk is basically first person gta.
Honestly - if you consider "Robocop" similar to "Cyberpunk 2077", I would exclusively agree under the guise that this is more like "Cyberpunk 1980" based on the visual fidelity.

Cyberpunk is funny because it is self referential in the title as a "Cyberpunk themed experience" which, while Robocop borrows from the genre, and is toned done substantially - being much more realistic to the time-frame it depicts. If you removed Murphy and the other robots from existence, the rest of the IP is essentially a cop drama. Cyberpunk however is like a "there's no going back" insanity where Night City is basically a City without any rules, and more money than any one location should have (think about it - the town is basically a red light district that kids live in, meat is basically all fake, almost no foliage or animals, etc.).

If I was to compare Robocop to another game vs a genre - I would really say "It's like Max Payne - but instead of diving around to avoid damage you walk right into it and start tossing guys".
