A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

It's a work of art, one of my favorite games (and dlc included).

I have a strong PC and play in 4k tho, with tons of mods to improve stuff or change some mechanics. Better textures and loads of clothes as well.

I finished the game several times and have probably a lot more than 100h in it. I still play regularly to simply enjoy life in Night City, and kill some dudes...

I'm in love with that game and I believe anybody should play it at least once in life.

I'm with this. Totally agree.

What game is there that does this kind of gameplay better?

Only the original Deus Ex has captured this genre so well.

The Revision mod made DE even better.

Worth a replay with it on if you haven't already

What are the chances, I was just looking into installing it again. Here's a handy article I found about the various mods, for those interested.

I will never tire of beating 7 shades out of Anna Navarre on that plane. Though the killswitch method is flat out hilarious.

Any mod reccos? I started it before the DLC and only played for like four hours.

I like the ones that add a second operating system cyberware. It can be seen as cheating but you can have a netrunner deck and a sandevistan at the same time (or whatever double cybwrware you want to play with).

I think it’s cyberware EX. I use the collection function of Nexus mods (ordered by rating) so I don’t have to hand manage hundreds of mods.

I don't want to put you down or anything, but this is very surprising to me. 100+ hours from multiple play throughs feels really small to me. You clearly love the game. So I am wondering why was your first time so short? When I love a game, I want to experience as much of the content as I can in my first playthrough. It took me 185 hours to finish Cyberpunk 2077 without the DLC. I haven't played that one yet. I am waiting for a new PC so that I can play the game on max settings.

I know you are right. I said that number from out of my ass as I was at work.

I just checked gog and I am actually at 201h and 7 minutes. My first play through was probably around 120 to 140h but I honestly don’t remember.

Funny enough, the actual save I use is from my first playthrough, the last save right before the last mission. As if I don’t want to abandon this specific V (female badass street kid net runner with katana).
