I agree for any game that’s open world/has side content/etc. I don’t like feeling like I can’t do stuff because the world will end if I take a detour. It’s ok for more linear/on rails games where it builds tension, and there’s nothing else to do.

I loved Cyberpunk, but that part was annoying. It also made the narrative a little less impactful when I’d spend a while fucking around, and that should mean I’m already dead by now.
