I played the game for the first time (without the DLCs) as a melee weapons, neutral, NCR~Mr. House leaning character who finaly choose the Yes Man route to sole power over New Vegas and decimated the legion fort, alone, just before the battle of Hoover Dam.

The thing I liked the most is how worry and maintenance free melee weapons were. No bullets to buy, no weapons to buy to maintain the current ones. Also, being quasi indestructible due to high endurance was cool.

Are there any other builds that don't require too much maintenance/minmaxing and are fun ? (I'm not interested in doing an unarmed build rn, but I could be convinced by some really cool stuff I may not know about them)

I got Cyberpunk on sale for $10 just because it was cheap and I have still never played it.

But I 100%ed EVERY achievement on New Vegas, so if you enjoy my old favorite game, I'll probably enjoy starting yours!

Wow, that's impressive

I don't think I've ever 100%-ed a single a game

A little disclaimer: CybP77 doesn't have as many choices and factions as fleshed out as in FNV

The writing is good, combat also, some sidequests are absolutely excellent and the game isn't tedious (as long as you don't play as a hacker). However what really does the heavy lifting is the ambiance. It is the absolute perfect cyberpunk world, no other piece of media can beat it at that. At least in the base game. The DLC flips it up and introduces an exceptional main story, ok-tier sidequests and not-so-good new zone. Despite its flaws it's one of my favorite games of all time, you should definitely give it a go !

Worry if this last part became a CDProjektRED ad ๐Ÿ˜… I could talk about this game for hours

Ps: Happy Cake day !
