I don't know if I'm being stunning and brave by saying this, but I stuck a fork in Cyberpunk 2077 when the 40 minute gameplay demo came out. The one that almost everyone wowed about. If you compare it to the teaser trailer from 2013, the tone is completely different, and not for the better. Although the teaser was purely cinematic, it was interested in the darkness of transhumanism, but the entire gameplay trailer is about hustling. Almost every piece of dialogue is overbaked: "got news as big as my balls!"
The gameplay itself is far from the transformative systems that we were promised. It's forced first person in a setting where the entire premise is built on your physical appearance. The shooting is your standard pseudo-cover FPS system with or without the destructible walls, the melee is your typical awkward FPS spamming with or without mantis blade climbing.
William Gibson's tweet is probably the best summary of the game.
