Cyberpunk 2077 as of the recent 2.0 patch and DLC is a masterpiece. This is the game I was hoping to get in 2020 - but still played 200 hours of because it had enough good and interesting things that it was compelling, despite flaws. I am now at 400 hours.
I have to say that narratively CP 2077 is the overall better game. I honestly hope that the DLC puts it in a place where it can be considered for GOTY. It should at least get a few categories.
as I get older, I have to admit that every time a game with great potential is released, I feel like a guinea pig. In the last few years, the gaming industry seems to be on a trend to release only unfinished/unpolished games, at the buyer's cost - us paying them and basically "testing" the game for them while waiting 1-3 years for patches which solves bugs and adds story completion that was planned years before the game release.
CdProjekt despite Larian, understands the depth and importance of a story, and I agree with you that the DLC is a masterpiece, mainly because it's a fresh breath, after playing Bg3 which whole story it's very linear and never puts the player into a dilemma / hard decision making like Cyberpunk does. I cannot wait for Witcher 4, but cannot think I'll not be a guinea pig and might just wait another year after release.
