They advertisd heavily on "complex branching storyline" and "every decision will have consequences" so the expectation was at the minimum a bigger Deus Ex Human Revolution, but then what they actually delivered is a worse GTA 5 with neon lights.
Right. But I just played it, and it has nothing to do with GTA. It's literally witcher 3 in first person. Same level of branching, same slightly shallow rpg mechanics and shallow ish combat. It's much more action, though and theoretically stealth is an option unlike witcher.
