A Grand Theft Auto, Blade Runner, DeusEx, The Matrix, Ghost in the Shell, Shadow Warrior, mashup; that's the feeling I have while playing Cyberpunk. It's futuristic nature and grand scale add to the allure. With all the shiny glitz and pomp the story and music really drive the addiction for me. The arc, takes you where you've never been, introduces you to people who become as close to family as you can have in a game, and all that, pulls you in and won't let go.

The skill tree is unique. It's the way in the game to build your character meaningfully and level up. The interesting aspect of it is, you can't balance across all skills, you have to focus on specifics. That makes all the difference. Handguns in this game are wild, but paired with your own cyber implants, it goes wild. Smart weapons are fun, hacking them is funner!

Night City is vast. It's fun to explore. While exploring, the radio creates an ambiance that's almost soothing. I rarely find myself fast traveling anywhere as a result.

This game has been reviewed many many times, so it's impossible to add anything unique here. I will say however, whether this game intentionally did this or not, it instills a sense of loneliness. Everywhere you go in the game, you're surrounded by people but usually alone. When you connect with another in the story-line, they always leave or die. Again, I don't know if this was intentional, but it's a feeling that follows you everywhere in the game, and it adds weight to everything you do, every decision you make, and every happy, or otherwise, event.

This game still has bugs, and they are often noticeable, but for all it's flaws, after having played for some time, I personally feel as though this has created an entirely new genre of game-play that will be mimicked for many years to come.
