Anyway, what I really wanted to do now was add something more tangible about the game that I thought was interesting. Namely this interview with CP2077 quest director, Mateusz Tomaskiewicz​. The part about building quests to be open for various mechanical approaches calls to mind my first experience with the original Deus Ex back in the day. I loved Witcher 3, especially it’s quests and some times nuanced writing. I hope they can bring some of that magic to Cyberpunk, and hopefully expand on the Witcher 3’s admittedly limited mechanical complexity.

There were a few journalists that weren’t that impressed with the game. Jeff Gerstmann for example. The argument I heard was that there was nothing particularly new, innovative o revolutionary here, nothing they haven’t seen before. It was just some of W3, some of GTA, some of Deus Ex elements.
I think what happen in these cases is that the hype is so high that expectations grow to a level where people expect something revolutionary. And yeah, if we take the individual elements we have seen it before.
The thing is… a Witcher 3-like RPG by the same devs with the scope and detail of GTA with the mechanics of a Deus Ex IS THE IDEAL FREAKING DREAM GAME.
