A lot of the boredom of Witcher is in its setting. For me that's just boring full stop and the same reason I got bored of RDR2 very quickly. I like an RPG as much as anyone else, but when the world is so huge and the tasks so tedious throughout in a setting that's just bland... I CBA any more. Zelda 64 is the last RPG I played from start to finish over the course of 6 months purely because it was fun and kept me busy throughout.
Cyberpunk looks like it has oodles of stuff to do and explore. The city is living and each resident is an individual it seems and the setting is exactly where my interests outside of gaming lie, in Sci-Fi and tech both modern and futuristic. I want to feel like I'm playing Blade Runner mixed with Demolition Man and Mad Max!
Plus the targeted set pieces like adverts of signs that change as you walk by them to be directed to your "V" is quite cool and interesting. I am expecting to see some future real world brand advertising thrown in throughout too so let's see what happens because if they can get Keanu in this, then they sure as hell can get recognised brands in 2077 too.
Surprised you didn't like RDR 2!?
Loved the setting in that game, could just spends hours riding around admiring the scenery.
Superb story too and when the action kicked in, it was so good.
But definitely, you need to be interested in the game setting to really get into it.
Love westerns
Love futuristic/scifi settings like blade runner etc. so cyberpunk already on a good start
Hate medieval.... then add in the pointless boring waffling multiple choice dialogue urgh.....
Bit like the division 1 and 2, new york, xmas time with snow and that dark + gritty feel makes the game a hundred times better, where as with division 2........ set in summer in a boring bland city i.e. Washington, meh....
