Games that people meat ride, but in the end their open world, gameplay depth and sidequests are just empty, shallow,and lack the rpg depth required to make an open world game actually good? Games like Elden rign, skyrim, fallout 4, is this the fallout 4 of the cyberpunk genre?Is it one of those cases where new vegas still mogs this? im starting to think that no good open world games exists, its a bad genre, and new vegas is the exeption
>>4150920Whatever good qualities this game may have, it's not because of open world exploration
>>4150920HAAAAAANK! DON'T ABBREVIATE CYBERPUNK! HAAAAAANK!!
>>4150928so whats the point thats most of the game isnt it, gameplay seemed very skyrim ish to me to
>>4150929i love cp man, the anime is very good tho
>>4150920very fun game that doesnt belong on /vrpg/
>>4150980how is it not an rpg
>>4150991it's a first person shooter
fun gameplay but the story is forgettable, doesn't help that 99% of side gigs are the same boring shit>arrive, kill/loot, return>bonus if you kill/loot silently
>>4150993so? that doesn't mean it doesn't belong to /vrpg/
>>4150993yeah it's a first person action rpg
>>4150920Like Elden Ring and Skyrim it's a must-play RPG. Amazing game.
>>4151004no its not>>4150998its exactly what it means thoughits not an rpg your choices dont matter
>>4151046>its not an rpg your choices dont matterSo ultima games aren't rpgs either then?
>>4151046Eh, depends. You can make several builds that play completely differently, you can solve certain story points in different ways, but nothing on PC can really have that tabletop rpg feel man. Freedom to do whatever is ass hard to code.
>>4151062No, but they're good youtube videos
>>4150996I had so much fun with my cool revolver specialist that I didn't mind that every mission was basically the same. It effectively turns into an action game once your build gets online that you just tweak with cyberware. The gunplay looked atrocious at launch so I can only imagine how bland this game was. Now though? A very enjoyable and stylish first person shooter with lite RPG mechanics. Just don't expect a lot of the stuff rpg players fixate on like stats mattering in dialogue, choice and consequence, multiple ways to tackle a problem, etc. Your choices are how stylishly you murder squads of gangoons. And you get to pick your ending. Although that's not really an RPG exclusive either these days.
>>4150993It is not an FPS, but at some point in development, they stopped making a full RPG and started making an action-adventure game with RPG elements.
>>4151046I've said it before. It's not an RPG if there's no GM. This whole board is a lie.
>>4151114>This whole board is a lieSee you tomorrow, faggot.
>>4151114but man this game looks amazing and nigth city is insane
I was just playing this again and I was just walking by a building and I heard some screaming. I was looking around and didn't see it and then a guy splat on the ground right next to me. Could be a bug, could be a random situation of a guy jumping out of a window and no one around caring, which is actually pretty funny and almost certainly would happen in this world.
>>4151204Visuals have always been important for vidya, and even more so when it comes to RPGs.
>>4151046just because it has rpg in the board name does not mean it's a board just for rpg games. in reality this is just a slow /v/, you can post literally anything.and besides your definition would mean no more jrpgs, soulslikes, etc., which would be fine of course, but the board would be even more useless.
>>4151132Lol hi.
>>4151398you forgot your mod tag when making this post, tranny
>>4150920>goodmaybe, consider if you want something like far cry or gta>likenoalso, words like>shallow>depth>actually goodare so shallow you might as well just buy the game and save us the time
>>4151799wow, far cry is awfull, gta is only good for the story and characters, all these games have mediocre slop gameplay, also i dont buy games anymore, these developers dont deserve it
>>4150920Its got better gameplay then the slop bethesda puts out lord knows the cars are better then bethesda will ever make. But story wise the game is only really good for one playthrough you don't have any choices in it that matter at all. I have never play elden ring so I wouldn't know there but it still kicks the shit out of bethesda's dog shit.
>>4151802>gta is only good for the story and charactersthe most popular GTAV has the shittiest story and characters
>>4151802>gta is only good for the story and charactersLet me guess, the first one you played was, at the absolute oldest, San Andreas. There’s absolutely no way you played 3, much less 1 or 2
>>4150980It's a trash game but enough of an RPG. Frankly, for as long as the board keeps allowing J"RPG" and the like, any attempts to exclude shallow western alleged-RPG are totally pointless.
>>4153379As long as pseuds equate poor design with depth, I don't wanna hear any of it
>>4150920Geneforge is better.
on my third game. at about 100 hours, managed to finish all gigs and ncpd missions, only a few more questlines to go and i think i will have finished a mostly complete playthrough. at about 110 hours now.
