Lord Megadrive
Flautist in training
This!!Just to go against some of the negative comments, I have continued progressing the story and its absolutely gripping. On top of that, some of the side characters you meet are some the best I've ever encountered and they branch off into some fantastic and memorable side quests that for me rival anything The Witcher delivered. The one thing I do agree with Gamespot on is the lack of cohesion between the story unfolding and the world. The main quest has a real sense of urgency and there's really no good reason why I should be off completing contracts, buying cars, cyberware etc. Now the game is much better if you do those things anyway but from a narrative perspective, it falls down a bit there. The side quests and branches are more believable as I think even against the clock these are important moments. Overall it's such a shame about the issues and current uproar as this is genuinely an unbelievably good game I think.
I really had to think hard about some decisions on the final missions. I’m starting my second play through in the next few days
