I spent 238 hours completing this game. I finished the main mission and all the side missions.

The main mission depending on the ending mostly is talking to this person and talking to that person. There is very limited action.

The side missions are all about shooting the hell out of people and gangs. Stealing items and blowing stuff up. It's all the action! If the main mission was all action then it would just be a shooter.

I think game's stories are far worse then they used to be. Developers used to employ not only real in-house writers, but sometimes use authors like Clive Barker. Recently Elden Ring got the help of an author to help, but think about the fact that it's news... It is "gaming news" that a developer hired a real author. *face palm* I don't know why Skyrim gets all the positive reviews it still does, when the stories in Bethesda's games have been terrible as far back as I can remember (except Morrowind), but I guess it is because you can mod their games. Maybe that is what is happening with Cyberpunk2077, where people are forgetting and will eventually forget completely, because whatever CDPR doesn't fix modders will do the work of fixing. And I don't think people read like they used to... book I mean. Entertainment is kinda empty nowadays, like music and movies, just mindless nonsense. Humans are changing, maybe?
