One S seems like it wouldn't run it very well even at 1080p. I think they dropped support for that gen now too so you don't get patches or expansions.

Damn thought that might be the case. Have been thinking about getting a next gen console of some kind, but it's just hard to justify since I don't game tmuch anymore. The XB1 is still plugging along perfectly for all of our streaming as well, so I haven't had a need to upgrade.

I will say that the game runs REALLY well on the Series X on performance mode. The framerate feels like it stays at 60 fps consistently and I haven't noticed any major glitches or issues. Looks great and plays great.

Currently working on my 2nd playthrough and I got the DLC as well. The game is in a really great place now with the updates. Definitely one of those games worthy of upgrading your console for.

I got an 8K TV on a deal and am really excited to try this considering I beat this game on a really old TV three times and absolutely loved it. Hope it looks as great as I think it will on my next playthrough.

Decided to start a new playthrough with a melee build because i've never done it. Play on Very Hard and it definitely is at the beginning as melee only.

Melee is fun. I'm using a lot of that in my 2nd playthrough. I'm on "medium" difficulty I think and it's pretty easy now that I'm leveled up. I'm using the cyber tech that slows down time / speeds you up... just like they used in the Netflix Edgerunners show.

It's a lot of fun using swords and throwing knives... very different than my first playthrough. Wish it was a little harder, but I'm just playing for the fun of it and doing all the stuff I missed my 1st time through.

I recommend playing on Very Hard or at least Hard, if it's too easy. I actually really like the difficulty scaling so far. I play Skyrim on Legendary mode, but it's nearly impossible to kill anything at the beginning of the game, which makes it such a slog to get started. So far in Cyberpunk, enemies are dying just fine, I just have to be much smarter about my engagements.

For example, I would use items like my grenades in only about 5% of engagements on most difficulties. With a katana build on Very Hard, I start every engagement with a couple of grenades and specifically choose the best damage for the situation.

I also just started using the monowire as a compliment to my katana... holy hell. The monowire is badass.

I'm really looking forward working through these perk trees I have never used in my last 2-3 playthroughs. The only negative is not being able to quickhack. I have always been a netrunner hybrid build of some kind in every playthrough because I think it is such an awesome mechanic.

I've been thinking about making the switch to the monowire... I don't like and never really use the mantis arms. I'm sure I'm not using them right, but they just don't seem that effective compared to my Katanas.

I too also miss the hacking ability. I really wish they wouldn't completely eliminate that part of the game when you go with the other cyber implants.
