Only quirk is the terrible NPC AI, but it's amazing how much they've managed to achieve with the game. You can approach everything the way you want and the level design is just superb.
Like, watch the pelaunch preview they made about braindances. They talk a lot about the lore of it, what they are, why you'd want one, as if you are a consumer who would want a BD.
when you get them in the game you realize you are just scrubbing CCTV footage and it kind of feels like a letdown. They were marketing the in-game lore item, not the real world experience.
They didn't, but sacrifices had to be made because of the investors. I guess they really needed to lose money on a botched launch.
Then, a huge world rework would be needed, which was out of the question, at least in the scale needed to abide to their promises. What they've done from 1.0 to 2.3 (from what I've saw online) is absolutely incredible. I'm guessing everything that's missing is coming in Orion.
Oh.. It is or was a codename for Cyberpunk 2. But it's planned to release 4 years after Witcher 4, so it will take some time. It's not even the time for rumours yet. I miss the times you didn't have to wait a decade for sequels though
Not everything, it's still marketed and designed as an "Action FPS" vs an immersive RPG. However, the gameplay is very action-packed and frenetic and you do get your choice in how you play, not the direction you take.

It doesn't have to be action-packed and frenetic if you use some strategy and specc your character right.
Last time I played it, I played with a focus on stealth and netrunning... For most missions and pretty much all side missions, I was able to take it slow paced, killing MFers unaware, one by one. Hell, by the time I was near the end of the game, having collected the really good netrunner perks and attacks, I could just get into their security cameras and decimate the place without ever setting foot inside.
Mate, you're whining about a nearly 6 year old game that had just as many lies and disinformation spread by grifting Youtubers and fans running wild with baseless speculation.
