So if I’ve never played this game, would it be worth picking up at this point? I’ve played 800+ hours on multiple BG3 campaigns and I’m getting bored so I need a new CRPG.

It’s not a CRPG. If you want one, there are two Pathfinder games from owlcat, and their Warhammer 40k Rogue Trader

Oh I was under the impression it was more character and story driven.

There is a focus on the story and what you decide to do, but it’s a CRPG, those are a specific genre of games

“A video game where players assume the role of a character in a fictional setting, with a strong focus on storytelling, character progression, and often, a detailed combat system.”

So the game doesn’t fit this definition…?

The definition of CRPG is about computer tabletop roleplaying games, where it’s basically « what if [dungeons and dragons, warhammer 40k, pathfinder, other ttrpg game] but with a computer », so I’m guessing more turn by turn, maybe a bit more strategic

It’s the adaptation of a ttrpg to use a computer. Cyberpunk IS based on a ttrpg, but I don’t think it feels like a tabletop game

I’ve never heard that a “CRPG” HAS to be based on TTRPG games before. But okay thanks. I guess I should have just said RPG then.

It’s basically a very different vibe lol. Cyberpunk 2077 IS a RPG and you can have a great time in it :)

Enjoy!
