my biggest issue was the bullet sponging and totally unbalanced combat, youd either be a god that couldnt die or someone who has to land 50 headshots with a sniper rifle to kill someone

    Personally I enjoyed the gameplay and found the writing to be so so with some really good moments and some awkward and awful ones (River hitting on a female V, I was with Judy and was frosty with him at every opportunity and he still went on as if I was leading him on. Like MF I could not have been clearer.)

        Yeah my wife was watching and was like ‘Yup, accurate.’

        That and the Netrunner at the Afterlife saying ‘Good girl’ after returning a job made my skin crawl.

          Keeping it spoiler free: at one point my female V was walking past a bunch of the Barghest gang who were non-aggressive, but making degrading comments. One said something about "coming back on all fours" and I turned around and mono-wired his head right off. The entire gang went aggro and I had to kill about 50 of them. Worth it, will do it again next playthrough.

      I'm still cut that the only male romance option for female V is a cop, and a creep on top of it

        They may have changed it, but I recall the romances were entirely dependent on which voice you chose. Genitalia didn't matter. So you can theoretically make a feminine V with the male voice if you want those male on male options.

          Male voiced V is so boring though… The actor has such a limited range of emotion in his lines…
