Not bad. Most reliable critics point out it’s solid, with some flaws in dialogue and drag in the combat system. Inter-person relationship building in the expanded cast seems to be a strong part. My personal category of the game is “it has a punk soul”, which I tend to value higher than any flaws a thing may have.
It is also very much a deliberate “Fuck you! Fight me!” entry in the culture war, so the reactionary responses are correspondingly strong and angry.
In spite of everything I’ve heard I kinda wanna try it. The graphics look good, the story sounds neat. I’m sure I’d have some fun with it. I like the “Fuck you Fight me” aspect too lol. I vibe with punk soul very much, part of the reason I love Cyberpunk 2077.
It’s a lot more nuanced than ever presented in the hate videos or reviews. Like the protagonists being deliberately flawed, the villains (or the people presented in those reviews as villains) are also portrayed as human: misinformed but not inherently evil; capable of empathy and questioning their beliefs; seemingly caricature at first, but then showing a different side.

Yeah, it’s clear some of the angriest critics completely missed that. :D
