CD Projekt recommends starting a new game when Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.0 drops: 'starting fresh will enhance your overall gameplay experience'
Cyberpunk 2077 is getting a mammoth-sized update, titled Update 2.0, tomorrow, September 21, and it promises to be a bit of a game changer. A police revamp, a progression overhaul, a new cybernetics system, vehicular combat, DLSS 3.5—it's vast, and thankfully separate from the Phantom Liberty expansion due next week, so you'll get all of this for free. With so many changes, the developer is naturally recommending that you experience it all on a fresh save, starting a new game rather than continuing an existing one.
It's entirely possible to just carry on with an old save, but making a new character will ease you into all of the big changes, most notably the skill system, which might be a bit jarring if you have to rebuild an existing character. "Due to the number of changes, starting fresh will enhance your overall gameplay experience," reads the tweet from CD Projekt Red.
Hey, chooms! While you'll be able to continue the game with your current character on an existing save, we recommend starting a new game after @CyberpunkGame
Update 2.0. Due to the number of changes, starting fresh will enhance your overall gameplay experience!
I'm looking forward to playing it again. After BG3. And in between Tarkov. After Starfield. I guess by that point Elden Ring DLC might be out. Also need to play RE4 remaster. . Also didn't a Harry Potter game come out recently? Also Atomic Heart had a DLC. Still need to try Hell Let Loose...
Maybe one day.
You forgot about armoured core 6. Which, you just must play, especially with that backlog.
I suck at souls games but I like robots. Should I still give it a try?
Yes, its not a souls game anyways, just a hard mech game. Which is kinda the staple for mech games.
Also though you can suck at soul like games but still enjoy them. Honestly the first step into getting good is figuring out which type of cheese you prefer. Ive always been partial to big sticks turning enemies into pancakes. It works on most games that are similar. Havent found a weapon to do so in lie of p yet, but thats a good thing for me since it changed my play style.
Thanks!
BG3 is amazing
Ya I'll probably bump it up ahead on the list because I loved the game so much. But I know what you mean, I'm way behind on games. I just beat the FF7 Remake and am in the middle of Horizon Zero Dawn (ya, the first one).
Harry Potter and Starfield ain't worth your time mate
Harry Potter probably not. But I'll try Starfield.
If you're a fan, I'd say the beginning when you're in Hogwarts and Hogsmeade is worth playing. But as soon as the plot takes you south, just stop playing.
Starfield is...a Bethesda game, no doubt about that. You'll probably like it okay if you like their games, just don't expect to be impressed or anything like that.
Bethesda games are a skeleton for mods for me, so I'll pick it up after the modding scene matures.
If someone has the time and resources, they could make a really good game out of it.
