There are different ways to play the game but it’s all fairly binary.
My first playthrough I wanted to be sneaky pistol man and invested my stats accordingly to become a slinky silenced instrument of death. My second playthrough had me becoming a punchy bullet sponge who can absorb damage like there’s no tomorrow and has fists so lethal he could poke yer head clean off.
My baby son then selfishly decided to arrive so I haven’t actually finished that run but I’m looking forward to going back to it at some point.
I wouldn’t let the open world environment bother you too much. The big surprise for me wasn’t the size of that open world (not a giant map), it was the verticality! There’s more floors in this game than I’ve ever seen before. Just follow the quest markers and have fun. I’m sure I’ve missed 80% of the side missions but I wasn’t underpowered at the end and had a blast regardless 👍
Must admit that at as low a price, it is a little tempting.
BUT as much as I may be conditionally loathe to reward poor dev and optimisation etc, I also made a promise to forego it at least for now. My new years resolution was to clear some AAA backlog before any major and/or newer released purchases, especially finally getting to grips with Warhammer 3, with the belated Chaos Dwarfs DLC release (to which end I'm getting along ok) Tbh the issue is oft as much deciding what to start (or at least try to get into) next as it is getting 'em done.
And my cup runneth over re all aformentioned points thereof.
That aside, CP2077 would still be some way down the wishlist anyway, with RE4 remake, Spider-Man/Miles Morales and Dave the Diver ahead of it. TLOU too though doubtful until some work is done. Also WH40K's Space Marine 2 and Rogue Trader, Homeworld 3, Age of Wonders 4 and Steamworld Build all possibly superseding CP2077 as they're released. Tbh much like No Man's Sky, it lost much of it's lustre what with a couple of years of reported issues etc, so it'll most likely be a 75+% discount buy in a year or two, if at all (the difference is that NMS now runs great on a potato in comparison)

This is how I approach a game, even in Metal Gear Solid I used to go awol and leap into a scene guns blazing.

Nice bundle. Almost a shame I already have the latter four. Of course, I have yet to play/complete the latter three of those lol.

Oooo, heads up, not sure when these went live as have only just looked, but 3 major titles going for free on Amazon Prime
I did much the same. Got a good long lazy afternoon's worth of play in a year or two ago and haven't yet got back to it. Not a bad game, runs well etc etc, just kind of one dimensional maybe. Tbh it was The Old Blood that I actually didn't like. Really old school but in the mechanics, not the WW2 setting which was fine in the older games in the series.

Superb series.
It’s not really worth mentioning Epic’s freebie this week, it’s just some bundle of items for the Sims 4. Snooze fest.
However, the Final Fantasy 7 Remake has had a significant discount, taking it down to a much more reasonable £39.89. But… it’s on Epic so I still ain’t parting with my spondoolies.
