    I tried giving c2077 a fair chance, thrice despite who made it.
    First time, I stopped shortly after the montage cause I found that speed running so much plot was silly.
    Second time: cause the cars handlikg goes from wading through pudding to sometimes bouncing off of a wall to barely being able to drive a straight lone. Third time: Jonny. Just Jonny. Didn’t like him.

      Honestly cyberpunk has one of the worst handling mechanics I’ve seen in a game made by a big studio. Still though it is one of my favorite games after the improvements they did on the game.

        I’ve found it’s been fine on a controller but borderline unplayable on a keyboard

          I played at launch (and after of course) I can’t recall that the driving was that bad on the keyboard. Maybe I’m just very used to driving with a keyboard but I didn’t really have any complaints even if it wasn’t exactly perfect.

          Doing just fine on mine. Takes getting used to and learning to let go at the right time so you don’t over correct.

        I tried it again a few days ago, the first time was last year.
        The cars are nearly unusuable, today

            tried that one actually, and it made it worse, it made the terrible handling consistent
            and it shouldnt need a mod (no matter how old or new a game is) to fix a core mechanic
            heck, its a cyberpunk game, driving should have been one of the first things to get right

              Yes, when I think “cyberpunk” the first thing that comes to mind is vehicle handling.

                cars are an important part of the cyberpunk genre, vehicles in general, so yes, vehicle handling is very important in your open world cyberpunk game

      Your first point is kind of lame. Would you rather read a book? Spend 20 hours playing corporate file sorting? You want to start from a street rat with no identity at all?

      Car handling takes finesse and getting used to it. You can’t hammer the keys and hold them down.

      Johnny is supposed to be an asshole in the beginning. He grows on you during the game, unless you like being a sellout.
