Still really enjoying the game. I've specialised my character in hacking, and it's just crazy how effective it gets at higher levels. He's carrying guns he's never fired because he can basically clear an entire building using his cyberdeck. Before he even walks into it.
I went the other way. I maxed out Reflexes/ Cool/ Tech and played as a Solo gun freak.
Maxed out Assault and Handguns now, plus 14+ in Cold Blood, Stealth and Crafting (and the obligatory few ranks in Body for the HP). Packing a one shot silenced Power sniper rifle, a Legendary silenced power pistol, and a Legendary Ajax assault rifle.
Found me a Militech Mk5 Legendary Sandivestian Reflex booster mid game, and swapped that in for the Cyberdeck for that and havent looked back.
It nearly broke the game for me. Am basically cruising about town on my bike, and the instant I see a highlighted enemy or whatever, I hop off the bike, double jump lin the middle of a horde of enemies, activate the Sandivestian, and have nearly 20 seconds of frozen time murder to get to work. I can usually kill 6-12 enemies before they know what hit them.
Pro tip, play the game on at least Hard mode. Im really regretting not playing it on the level above that (Very Hard??). I'm absolutely creaming missions now.
If I had my time again I'd play it on Very Hard at a bare minimum.
The inventory management system is an absolute joke. You can carry way too much naughty word, you always look like an total idiot due to basically needing to wear clothes with the most mod slots to cram them full of Armadillo mods, food and drink is totally pointless (and quickly starts to take up precious encumbrance) and takes forever to sell, medkits are literally everywhere, getting Crafting to 20 looks like it will take weeks of stripping and then crafting the same items over and over, and the GPS doesnt zoom out when you're driving meaning you miss most turns (and driving anything other than motorbikes makes it impossible to see over the dash).
