Phantom Liberty pretty much made this a completely different game.

Tell me more, because that sounds like I've underestimated how big a deal Phantom Liberty is. I imagined an extra quest, not something that changes the existing game.

Well, Phantom Liberty in and of itself is a pretty big expansion with a whole new area to explore, a bunch of new vehicles and weapons, a new ending, a really big add on with sidequests and a big main quest.

But more importantly is that it came alongside a really huge patch that literally changes everything. Like, it changes clothing so it's no longer how you get your buffs. With few exceptions, clothing is no longer how you get buffs. It refined car combat. It completely overhauled core mechanics like how your hacking works, how much of your body you can modify with what kind of quality upgrades depending on your stats. The police AI is completely different.

Like, not so much Phantom Liberty in and of itself, but the patches that came alongside it literally changed the game. You take vanilla Cyberpunk from its original release and compare it to what it is now, it really does feel like a completely different game.

I did start another playthrough. I'm keeping the most recent saves so I can always go back to my more complete V, but I only need three easy-to-get trophies for the platinum and Corpo is the only path I haven't done yet.

Not sure if I'll keep going after getting the plat or if I'll just go back to my old saves though. Probably depends on how much playing from scratch for the first time with all the patches grabs me.

I'll have to put a lot of thought into my build, since for once I won't have a team to do all the work in combat for me.

Well, the three life paths (corpo, street kid, nomad) only really changes the very beginning of the game and some dialogue choices. It doesn't really matter much beyond that. As far as your build, it really just comes down to your playstyle, But whether you go heavy into one or two of the skill trees or if you spread things out into jack-of-all-trades, the game is good at accomidating where you are. I mean, it's a single player game, so it accounts for not having a team.
