Setter is Better.
i think the idea of the gacha is that playthroughs will vary depending on who you get, and you definitely gen enough free poo poo to have a good party regardless of anything, but people see that and they want to collect every blade

Cyberpunk DLC is mostly good though I am having frequent crashes, but I think that's down to a hardware or OS issue.

Think I've managed to get into the combat flow after playing Starfield. Too bad they nerfed my favorite gun (Comrade's hammer) though in retrospect I probably did want my boss fights to last longer than twenty seconds.

Doubt anything in 2 tops the Moebius Battle Theme.

I like 2's environmental and "story" tracks much more (XB3's main vocal track is the best though) , but I agree that 2's combat music in general is below both 1 and 3's (3 is also the best in terms of combat music IMO).

In particular I think its core "story" themes, like "Where We Used to Be*" are great, and stuff like that and environment themes have a bigger impact for me than combat music. There are a bunch of other tracks that are amazing at creating a certain "vibe" for the areas/scenes in which they occur (I think XB3 was probably the weakest in terms of its area themes in particular), and I think music is a huge part of presentation in RPG games like this.

just restarted Cyberpunk with the new expansion and a new character (thank you gog-games.com for freely uploading every game on GOG like an hour after it actually releases) and it's really weird how short the streetkid start is. the whole corpo story feels really expansive and well done, and it must be at least 60 minutes or so; as a streetkid youre done with the intro in like 10 minutes. what genius thought this was good writing?

Nomad is also really short IIRC.

Corpo is also pretty fast if you don't spend a lot of time searching around the office, though. IIRC you literally just walk into your boss's office, talk, and then fly to the bar, where it ends.

They're all actually pretty short - Corpo just gives more opportunity for loving around.

You need a dude called dammon and unfortunately there are about 2000 ways for him to die not including the bug category called 'dammon turned into a puddle of goo and I don't know why'

by your fourth or fifth restart youll be glad its short. it is good writing, you work for an idiot fixer that to you at the time is big time but everyone else thinks is a loser, then you hang out with the guy who really runs the barrio and threaten some random punk, then you get arrested and the game starts.

imo the street kid has the best dialogue choices and they pop constantly. corpo is only good for bigtiming people and nomad.... i think you get to say "cars ftw" a few times
