          The answer remains unchanged, the cutscenes in CP2077 are first person, and in-engine.

      Yes. Yes it does. At least on PC. Most likely all high settings with some ray tracing going on. No pre rendered cutscenes

      It looks better, actually. Especially if you have a high end GPU that can handle path tracing.

      Unfortunately the game itself isn’t very good. They fixed all the bugs but it’s just not that fun to play. I’d pick it up for $15, though, to have a pretty demo to show off your $1200+ graphics card, if nothing else.

        Yeah from what I’ve seen some of the mechanics still look a little chunky.

        I’m also a little worried about Keanu Reeves role in the game. Reddit’s idolization of him really makes me cringe and I’m worried it’s going to come off as intrusive as a Simpsons celebrity cameo.

        So not on the Steam Deck?

          Yeah no I wouldn’t play it on the Steam Deck, unless you simply like the game for what it is (and a lot of people do). Personally I only play it for the graphics because I’m lucky enough to have a PC that can crank all the settings at 4K without my FPS tanking, but just for a few minutes at a time before I get bored again.

          Keanu actually does a pretty good job. He’s a major character so it’s not just a quick cameo or anything like that just for the sake of having a celebrity in the game. It’s actually not jarring at all. He blends in just like any other character in the game.

            Thanks. Part of partially expected him to give Easter egg references to projects he has previously been in

      Night City is on the west coast of North America. The world in cyberpunk is heavily controlled by global influences, of which the Japanese Arasaka is arguably the largest.

          The society in the game uses a global currency called “euro-dollars”. I’m not sure the concept of countries is relevant in the future depicted by the game. The wars and politics are about corporations, not governments.

      Well this is taken outside of Japantown, looking into the Arasaka (Japanese) business district.
