Cyberpunk 2077 was released in such a horrible state that most might have assumed it was forever dead in the water. Look at it now.
Cyberpunk 2077 was released in such a horrible state that most might have assumed it was forever dead in the water. Look at it now.
I still just don’t like the game, even with all the updates and fixes. It’s missing so much potential customisation that I’d like to see in a cyberpunk game. There’s not much to do in the city outside of missions and I hate the bulletsponge enemies with the RPG style hitpoints system. I also dislike the in game UI.
I’ve tried to get into it no less than 7 times, but its always felt like a chore and I give up.
If you are interested i have a mod list that addresses about everything you mentioned.
The true potential of customization for cyberpunk has always been mods. Its the new skyrim for me.
I’m not the same user, but I’m still interested in your list.
Its in one of the other replies below. Have Fun!
Yes please. Never played the game but it’s on sale again & I might have to finally pick it up.
Thanks!
I think this is about all the important ones, i have to install them all manually on linux so i cant just export from a manager.
MAIN OVERHAULS
Dark Future by DarkFortuneTeller. Have a look at their list of compatibilities because it makes for a great recommendation list.

HARDCORE22 by cortlong50 If killing feels to easy with this mod its because you took less then 2 npc bullets to your own head. An actual stray bullet has got me before.

I was however unable to install Appearance Menu Mod because of a weird lag when entering cars. Its the only mod that gave me problems but the occurance of this bug seems pretty rare depending on your pc.

have you tried within the last year?
the 2.0 update completely revamped the skill and cyberware systems!
bulletsponges are also less of a thing now, and rarity levels and loot have been reworked as well.
there’s now native cosmetic armor, so you can finally wear drip without compromising on armor stats and such without mods!
lots of other QoL and general improvements!
if you haven’t played since the 2.0 update, i highly recommend giving it another shot!
it really feels like a very different game now, but with the same story and feel
(bulletsponges are less of a thing due to the skills rework, mostly; it’s borderline impossible to have trash dmg output due to poor skill choices/combos now. basically all perk paths now improve damage fairly consistently, instead of having certain paths way more powerful than others. skills are also less often boring '+X" and more focused on giving immediate improvements/abilities. any weapon choice is perfectly viable now, without having to plan out some ridiculous, borderline PoE style build from level 1; you can now just pick whatever path you like!
…but enemies in the very beginning might feel slightly bulletspongy, although less than pre 2.0! that quickly disappears after the first few levels when you get your first major boosts from skills/cyberware!)
Your build is messed up if you’re encountering bullet sponges outside high level or very early level content on very hard difficulty. There’s dozens of builds that can one hit even skull enemies. I play a knife throwing build in my latest play on very hard and the only thing I can’t one tap headshot is bosses and mechs.
