Using this thread to start some discussion about the upcoming expansion: what are you looking forward to most? Will you be playing on release?

Personally, I'm anxious to see how the core game will change with the announced changes—I was largely happy with the plot of the original, but the game got too easy and the skill tree was uninspired. Still, I won't care too much if it's bad or good; once I have the time and money for a rig that crushes overdrive mode I don't think I'll care about game mechanics too much.

I'm not pre-ordering but I'm cautiously optimistic with the changes I've seen.

I'll watch some streams before I decide, but I'll probably buy it.

im super pumped about it

warts and all, CP2077 was one of my favorite games in a while. im supes excited for the gameplay changes and how they fk with the story

and i just bought the rig so im also super pumped for the graphical shizz

Really excited about it. I think their experience with the rocky launch and critiques of their world, story, and endings will only have taught them lessons that will benefit Phantom Liberty.

I enjoyed Cyberpunk even early on, but it definitely felt incomplete. I hope the expansion rounds out the features that were lacking and the world can start to feel more immersive and adaptive to the player's actions.

The new path tracing looks incredible, and I'm looking forward to doing a fresh playthrough to experience the "complete" Cyberpunk experience.

I'll probably buy it at some point on sale. I'm in no rush though. Once it's confirmed to be stable and a good experience I'll pick it up. Being a patient gamer seems like the best way to buy games these days. Gonna plug it here for anyone who might be interested: https://sh.itjust.works/c/patientgamers

what are you looking forward to most?

Mostly more story and content in the Cyberpunk universe. Haven't really looked at anything regarding the new content, I want it to be a surprise as much as possible.

Will you be playing on release?

Probably not. I don't game a lot these days, so I'll probably wait until I have some time to completely immerse myself into it for a couple of days.
