    I finally got Cyberpunk since it was on sale and been playing it on my Steam Deck. I’m only a few hours in but I’m blown away by how pretty and performant the game is.

    I typically scoff at AAAs, especially after CP77’s initial release, but they seem to have smoothed out quite a lot and filled out missing chunks. I can see myself sinking the next few weeks of free time into this one.

      Exactly this, right up until it got too hot for my sweaty hands to hold the steam deck. Really impressed with it so far though

      It’s a great game, still not perfect but I really enjoyed it. Cool modding scene too, if you’re into that sort of thing.

        If I get into modding that’s another 30+ hours just on installation but could be a fun rabbit hole! Do you have any recommendations for mods?

          Oh, I haven’t been tapped in in a while, I did my heavily modded playthrough pre 2.0 and I remember some of the mods broke with the DLC and I’m not sure they got updated. I know that there is a very popular mod collection called Welcome To Night City you could use as a starting point (or just use wholesale).

          Recently some of the old classic mods that broke in 2.0 have started to get new updated versions (the original modder left), like Reinforcements System, SynthDose and Drone Companions.

          I like using PED Damage Overhaul, but you need to tweak the default settings (check the pinned comments).

          In the pinned comments of HARDCORE22v2 there is a list of mods and settings/tweaks of them by the user ezzio2030 for a more “hardcore” experience that I used pretty much all of. Makes for a more fun game with stuff like limited ammo, ammo refill in vehicle trunk and much more.

          Hopefully that’s a starting point?
