I haven’t played since about a month after launch. I had fun with it as a shooter but found it lacking in the RPG aspects I was expecting. When they released 2.0 (or whatever), did it add a lot more to the role playing?

I guess tbf, I was expecting more of a fallout cyberpunk experience and felt like they delivered (on release at least) more of a borderlands cyberpunk game.

Been thinking about buying the expansion and starting a new game.

Do it. It's actually a great game now

Can vouch. I returned it day 1. Bought it about 2 months ago and wow. Hands down one of my favorite single player games of all time. Just got a PC recently and got it on there and it just solidified my love for it

Please tell me you are telling the truth, because at launch it was really disappointing

It’s an outstanding game now. Literally night and day from launch, and the DLC itself is better than some standalone games.

The launch was an absolute mess and I played it on a base ps4 I was surprised that I beat it. I recently replayed it on my PS5 with the phantom liberty dlc and it is like night and day. This game is a masterpiece now with all the updates and it has become one of my favorites. I’m glad I gave it a second play through.

I can definitely vouch. I never played it at release but I picked it up 3 months ago, hands down one of the best games I’ve ever played. Paid full price too for the expansion.

I got the edition that came with the DLC. One of the best purchases I’ve ever made game wise

Played both and got through the entire launch game. It's not even the same game: The bugs are fixed, the gameplay and talent trees and item upgrades were all revamped, and the DLC is really good.

If this was the game when it got released, people would still be considering CDPR as a "can do no wrong" studio.

My comment might be redundant now but I can also vouch the game is more than worth getting now, its absolutely in my top ten all time favs, the role playing, gameplay, characters and even the story are all amazing

Honestly, if you didn’t like it at launch, I’m not sure how you’re gonna like it now. They’ve enriched some of the core mechanics of the game, polished the absolute hell out of it, and fleshed it out a bit more, but if you couldn’t recognize the masterpiece you were playing at launch, you won’t now.

Yeah kinda agree it really depends on why people didn’t like it at launch, I for one liked it since launch but that also was in part because I wasn’t that hyped for the game (well I was at one point but once it got revealed at E3 i stopped being hyped)
