    Thirty of the best dollars I've ever spent. This game is an underappreciated masterpiece.

    The plot is that the corps are leaving everyone high and dry. You and the boss gotta keep things from falling apart.

    This is so underrated! Absolutely beautiful world. It looks so good that I am not even mad about the excessive backtracking it forces me to do (partly due to the weird fast travel mechanics).

    Just bought it couple of days ago but got really turned off by the aiming system- and not he auto aim wasn't of much help. Its a pity because looks like the game has some glowing reviews on PC but there also seems to be a big divide between people who actually get the hang of it on controller and those who find it frustrating. Which is kinda weird considering i played Diablo 3 as a ranged character and controller aim was no issue at all. Not sure why this one feels so awkward to play.

    This game crashed for me every time I played it in 2021. I ended up getting a refund from Steam. Now in 2023 it’s Steam Deck verified so I’m giving it another chance. Thanks for sharing this video! Especially about it crashing on you. I hope it’s more stable on the Steam Deck.

    The corporation that ran everything went bankrupt, now it's a free for all. You are trying to hold things together, and hopefully secure your freedom by preventing other corporations from buying up your indentured servant (slave) contract in the aftermath of the demise of the corporation that previously held said contract.

      It helps if you're already somewhat familiar with the cyberpunk subgenre of sci-fi. Think "high-tech, low class".
      It's essentially a critique of Capitalism. Like, that's the future we're headed for-where everyone's a slave, and corporations run everything.

      If you find others to play with then yes, you can enjoy the game. The other thing is that you can go back to previously visited areas and fight things again to get more resources and lvl up equipment, if I am not mistaken
