So, I pre-purchased Phantom Liberty, it’s been a while since I played the game, should I wait for it to actually release and do a new playthrough from scratch with the expansion, or start a playthrough now to have a fresh fully built character to dive into the expansion stuff?

Opinions are solicited!

I had the money chilling in my steam wallet from selling off extra collectibles, and I’m going to buy it eventually anyhow. I slept on the original game for way longer than I meant to because of all the shit talk, kinda wish I hadn’t done.

I waited two years, paid less and played CP2077 (almost) bug free.

I don’t understand why people pre-order stuff with such a history.

I’ll be playing it on Steam Deck, so I’ll probably post about it on !steamdeck@lemmy.world and/or !steamdeck@lemmy.ml and/or !steamdeck@sopuli.xyz as well as here lol.

I would wait and play through again once the expansion is released, it sounds like they are making wide-sweeping improvements to the base game as well.

Maybe I’ll finally do a throwing knife build that I never got around to. I love how versatile the game is. No two playthroughs have been the same.

They’re apparently reworking the perk system amongst many other improvements. There are some lists kicking around here somewhere. They read like my wishlist, I’m super psyched.

Every time I’ve played through I’ve ended up with a netrunner who goes off like a neutron bomb killing everyone in a three mile radius without stepping foot inside the mission zone. I’m beginning to think it’s me.

Its just the strongest/more interesting way to play. Same problem as Skyrim’s stealth archer.

Contagion is so good. My only gripe with it is the bug where the ticking sound of the quickhack keeps playing even when you exit the quickhack view. It gets very annoying very fast. Otherwise, open up with contagion, finish the job with suicide and synapse burnout just for fun.

Last time I played I went crazy with mods, I think whatever I do it’s going to be back to vanilla.

I find it a little bit funny to pre-order a dlc for cyberpunk after seeing how it originally launched :p
But anyhow, yeah. I have been following the development and I’m pretty hyped. I think I’m gonna start a new save for it. I hope it will be worth it.

My god, I completely forgot about that game. I’m pretty sure it’s been abandoned tho :(
Edit: Preorders refunded for Bloodlines 2, the long-awaited sequel to a classic vampire game at the very least it’s stuck in development hell :/

Yeah well they’ve gone back to scratch like six times. Three different developers, two publishers, someday my grandchildren will play it for me, when my hands are too arthritic to hold a controller 🀣

Sorry, why would you pre-purchase this? (Or anything)

Why not wait until reviews are out and then purchase it?

Seriously stop preordering like an lunatic. You’re just enabling their bad practices by doing this.

The last time I pre-ordered something, it was Bioshock Infinite, and I got XCOM free, and XCOM turned out to be pretty good, one of my all time favourite games.
