| everything that is cyberpunk.
|

| futuristic it looks retro and nostalgic, missing the entire

|
| Keep in mind this game is loosely based on a 90s role playing
| game. Sure they probably have a lot of leeway in art direction
| but there's probably some faithfulness to the original setting
| they want to keep (which is a little bit like skyscrapers in
| Dubai[0]).

| Why would they give away the innovative features in trailers?

| A. CD Projekt Red is really good at telling stories, period.

| B. Open world 1st person games are uncommon, especially big-

|
| C. The Cyberpunk style universe is pretty uncommon as well,
| especially in real-time RPG/action games.
|
| Yeah the universe is a little "standard" cyberpunk, but I think
| this is good simply because the standard view of this universe
| is very under-represented, and there is a lot of room to tell
| some very interesting stories in a real-time format.

| You probably feel that way because the tabletop game that CD

|
| Calling Cyberpunk cliche is like calling Lord of the Rings
