Those looking for something a bit more involved and specific, rejoice. We’ve also included a different kind of strength build that requires lower strength but often deals even more damage than colossal weapons....

For all its genuine merits, Cyberpunk 2077 overpromised, launched in an unacceptable state on console and bore the price – even my Mum asked me about it getting yanked from PlayStation after she heard about it on mainstream breakfast news. Slowly but surely, CD Projekt RED has been rebuilding the good will it lost, whether by tuning the game on both PC and console to run and feel better so you can experience the great quests underneath without technical difficulties, or by building on the game’s best elements with lore-deepening graphic novels and now a big-budget anime tie-in....
