GAWD I love the cyberpunk setting and aesthetic!!!
I was playing the "demo" of Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty edition and
....ok nocap I downloaded a cracked version because TBH, I really want to
play it but didn't want to spend then find out I can't run it so I downloaded
it and after finally deciding to play it before the other games I thought I would
(trust me, I am backlogged gaming wise, still haven't finished Max Payne and Mass
Effect II).
Surprisingly it ran well on the lowest setting but it wasn't bad at all since the
aesthetic isn't realistic, got around 50+ FPS most of the time and when I was in combat
, there was no lag (compared to Escape From Tarkov sheeesh). With the art style, the lower
texture didn't look shabby at all and surprisingly, I only had to go to "performance" mode
, didn't even have to go to "ultra performance".
Anyways, I've seen the game played by strimmers so I kinda knew the beginning story arcs and
stuff but as I played it, I still found myself immersed in the environment and the story. I
am totally enthralled by the game, even more so than Mass Effect 1, story and universe wise.
So I uninstalled the game, wait for it to go on sale, then I will buy it off GOG legitemately.
TBF, I could've kept playing but I know I'm gonna officially buy the game so I didn't want to go
too deep in it LOL.
With that said, I do love the cyberpunk aesthetic and universe. When I compare the Cyberpunk universe
vs the Mass Effect universe, I just love the grittiness of Cyberpunk. I just love the grittiness of
cyberpunk in general, compared to the clean utopian/dystopian universe of Mass Effect - I just gravitate
more towards the gritty stuff. I think I mentioned this before in my SW post.
but I tend to gravitate more to the Mandolorian, Obi Wan, underground settings of Stars Wars rather than
the main universe.
I want to live in that world LOL. How do I make real life into that? It gets my blood flowing nocap.
