The anime was great though
The comic books from Dark Horse have been solid as well.
Not sure if the number has changed much but this article was published on Oct 3.
Edit: DLC sold 2 million more since.
I wonder if in the live action, there will be car radios randomly coming on at full volume.
Yes, what the hell is that? Radio is off, and as I'm driving music will play for a second or two randomly.
Can we PLEASE get facial animations for V and a native 3rd person view?
No. They said no. Many times.
Personally I still think it's a weird choice. In Fallout or Elder Scrolls, anytime I want to look at my character I can just switch over to 3rd-person to get a good look at them in-game. I can see how their armor/outfit looks when they move around, and I can see how they use their weapon(s).
In Cyberpunk, I have to pause the game. And V just stands there, holding a weapon. You don't really get to see clothes in action, even in photo mode (which is nice to have, but still).
Please no. They committed to first person and the game is better for it. Not many games have the commitment for it and that is really sad. I really really dig first person only because it let's the developers design the game around that without players cheesing the mechanics.
The only other game that comes to mind as commited as cyberpunk was kingdom come deliverance which was also better for it.
"cheesing the mechanics"? What the hell are you talking about?
For example. In cyberpunk you are forced to first person in combat. That means to look around a corner you have to put yourself in danger. To mitigate this you can invest in certain cyber ware to see through walls or throw recon grenades. If you would be able to use third person you could just move your camera to look around an object. You would have to design the encounters with that in mind and the thinks like recon grenades or looking through walls get less interesting if you allow the view of the player to fly around without getting in danger. As you can guess I don't like this and consider it cheesing. Similar example for kingdom come. There are medieval helmets in the game where you can pull the front piece down. That will impair your field of View. But you get more protection. But this could just be cheesed by turning on third person.
This kind of stuff I mean by cheesed.
