This is a bit off topic, but I wanted to share it anyway:

Recently I got Cyberpunk 2077. I like the setting, I am a big fan of dystopian future. I am also a little radical about public transport in real life. I love to use it, I hate handling cars, I hate looking for parking.

One of the mayor things I noticed playing CP77 was the lack of public transport. I haven’t played a triple A ever and was surprised by the amount of NPCs. Everything felt so right in Night City. Urgency, dirtiness, people everywhere. Now it is coming with the next update. Thinking about it makes me not want to use the in-game car. It just pops up (hardly any waiting involved, weird) and you cannot really park it anywhere. It is just as useless as real life cars, handling is bad (maybe I am a bad driver but still). I love it. Yes, I can fast travel, but for immersion it is great.

I was just reading that metros are coming in the next update, so you're in luck.

Which is funny since the first trailer they released starts off in a one. You folks think they are done after this or are they going to add more stuff still? Cause I kinda want to finally play the game, but I like to play games that are actually done.

I didn't buy the game at launch because, y'know, [gestures broadly]. However, I picked it up during the sale with the 2.0 update. There are still some janky glitches and oddball moments that happen every now and then, but overall, Night City is a nice place to be. I can look past its quirks because I like being in the world CP2077 offers.

Even if CDPR is going to add more, I think you should wait for the next sale and pick it up. Plus, the mod community has tons of options to fill in any gaps CDPR leaves.
