There it is... Just reached over 1,000+ hours in Cyberpunk 2077... :)

"Can't stop diggin' Night City!" - as Jackie Welles says :')

The game could have been better, and I KNOW it will be better, yet I still enjoy it for what it is. Living that mercenary fantasy - a cybernetically-enhanced badass!

EDIT: After Patch 2.0 (and now 2.1 Ultimate Edition) the game is simply stunning! It's fundamentally better. I love the energy of CP2077's new Game Director, Gabriel Amatangelo; that man has stepped up, giving the game what it deserves. Also, shout out to Quest Director, Pawel Sasko for his close interaction with the community via weekly Twitch Streams.

In short, the game's graphics (especially when maxed out in 4K with HDR, DLSS and RT Overdrive Mode, it becomes a technological marvel. Its atmosphere, immersion, deep story line and complex lore, characters, soundtrack, secrets and overall gameplay replay-ability have left their mark on me. There's a certain comfort to Night City that I can't quite describe. Which is strange, because the city itself is a f*cked up place. Driving at night through the city streets, the various districts, the Badlands, etc... feels nostalgic and somehow relatable.

I love trying out different builds, tactics, choices, reading everything, looting everything... I like to roleplay my characters' builds based on my chosen lifepaths. There is Nomad, Streetkid and Corpo. Each has a different intro, along with different dialogue options during main / side quests / gigs which either gives more insight when dealing with the respective faction, or unlocks entirely new, unique outcomes.

The only other games that have left me in a similar state of passion and addiction have been TESV: Skyrim, Mass Effect trilogy, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and a few others...

There are many great games that I've re-played numerous times in the past, but not to this extent! And certainly not in such a short amount of time. I've been playing since launch, and somehow I've come across very little bugs / glitches. Also NO crashes! Lucky me, I guess... :) Makes me wonder if the game really was as buggy as it was made out to be... The less Reddits / social media posts I read, the more I enjoyed the game.

I'm here to leave my positive review and show my support. I should have done it a long time ago, but I thought I'd leave it until I hit a big milestone... Which is now, as of this review.. 1,000 hours! What a beautiful number! Maybe now my review holds more 'weight' ... I hope more people decide to try the game for themselves and not have their experience ruined by the internet...

There are still many more hours left for me in this Cyberpunk universe :) Possibly hundreds!

"A Thing of Beauty, I Know, Will Never Fade Away" - SAMURAI :')

"I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favourite trilogy on the Citadel!"

Already reviewed the original trilogy on Steam before...
No point saying the same things again. Instead, I'll keep it short and sweet this time...

I've played the original games fully modded multiple times in the past.
Legendary Edition is basically that but better, in most cases! :)

With 4K textures and HDR support.

Gameplay and controls are smoother in ME1 specifically, combat feels snappier and more fast-paced. There's many new quality-of-life / balancing improvements which are a welcome addition. The camera placement is closer now, too. More immersive, I'd say.

Audio and soundtrack are a straight 10/10. One of the best game soundtracks ever, especially ME3, in my opinion. And now, with the Legendary Edition, the audio quality is even more impressive. Get your sub-woofers ready! ;)

Other than that, the story is the same epic we all know and love <3 BEST SCI-FI TRILOGY EVER! ;) Now it comes bundled with every single DLC / addon as one complete package.

I noticed some minor issues, but whatever... Also, ME3 multiplayer is missing in Legendary Edition, but it's possible it will come as a future update. I loved ME3's multiplayer back in the day. Mass Effect has such a nice, passionate community!

Looking forward to yet another 200+ hour journey of nostalgia and unforgettable emotions :')

Let's save the galaxy once more, Commander!
