I think you can actually. If you’ve already completed the game there’s a mod that allows you to start a new game plus. You keep all your stats points and gear, and I think you can have it start as if the story is complete so you can just explore the world again and do all the side stuff. I’m not 100% sure but there are loads of YT vids that cover it. Just look for cyberpunk new game plus mod.
I get why you might be thinking this. If you’re on PC, I suggest modding the game. Im playing though my 2nd play through. Played through to PL and then only recently decided to play with modding and it’s a game changer. Now playing the PL part of the game and already thinking about a 3rd play through. The mods I have make it feel like a remaster. If you want I’ll list out the key mods (just let me know).
I played rdr2 first and later played rdr1. Playing 1 made me want to play 2 again, which I did and loved it even more the 2nd time rpund.
I personally don’t think playing them out of order ruins anything story wise. It’s like watching or playing a sequel as opposed to a prequel if you play 2 first.
But…whilst rdr1 still looks and plays great, playing 2 first may take some of that away, as you’ll be used to rdr2 which is just about as perfect a video game one can be. I’d therefore recommend 1 then 2.
The last of us 1 and then 2. There are video games and then there’s TLoU p1&2. If you can, play 1 on pc. The controls aren’t great in 1 (IMHO) but kb&m made that so much better. P2 they made the controls much better. It’s a more fun game to play in my experience with less frustrating sections, and whilst people prefer 1 or flat out don’t like 2, I think the drivers for that aren’t to do with the story or game not being good, in fact, I would say p2 is the best story driven game I’ve ever played (better than rdr2 which I loved and is another one you should consider, 1 and 2 actually). People will just not like 1 specific thing or another (there are lots of small things in the game that certain people will have issue with, you’ll understand when you play it) and then because of that 1 thing say the whole thing is bad. People that complain are often louder than those who praise.
I’ve been playing since d1 launched. I stopped a while back and dip in and out with each expansion but hate that I find myself not knowing what’s what. I’ve held off on lightfall, given the reviews. Should I bother at £15 in the sale, or say my goodbye’s?
