After 95 hours of gameplay, during which I completed probably 99% of the content the game has to offer, it was enough. I can say that at its core, it's still the same old Cyberpunk from launch, only now the game has been fixed as much as possible, the city has been brought to life significantly, a fantastic expansion has been added to the overall experience, and, at least for this game, they have risen from the ashes they had infamously thrown themselves into.

At its heart, the game remains their unfulfilled ambition, yet still, it's an excellent title that would be a real shame to miss (especially for fans of the Cyberpunk / Blade Runner setting). In my second playthrough, where I experienced the full endgame and the expansion, I again saw that they are fantastic storytellers. However, those looking for top-notch RPG gameplay will find there are better titles out there. The Witcher 3 had a similar issue, but it was nonetheless a much more rounded game.

All in all, I’m glad I played it in its best possible version, at the current peak of "graphic offerings" (and that I had the hardware to run it), as that production level was an excellent addition to the overall experience.

If I had to rate the game, it stands as a solid 8 for me. An experience I would describe as a train going in one direction, where choices and their consequences are practically non-existent during most of the game, yet the ride is still top-notch. Now to wait for The Witcher 4 to see if they can surpass the third game or if they’ve already given us their swan song.
