5 Reasons Cyberpunk 2077 Will Be The Best Game Of 2019
4. Incredible Weapon Variety
A lot of games have different weapons to choose from, but they don't offer much variety. In some games, you're basically choosing between swords or bows. In others, that might extend to shotguns, rifles, pistols and SMGs - all weapons which function basically the same in every shooter.
Cyberpunk 2077 has considerably more choice up its bionic sleeves. The full lineup of artillery is still to be revealed, but we’ve already seen some features unique to Cyberpunk’s universe. Guns that fire through cover, bullets that ricochet off walls and smart targeting even means some projectiles will track moving enemies, Halo style.
Having struck upon a successful formula with Wild Hunt, it must have been tempting to simply chuck the game a few centuries forward. Guns replacing bows, batons and melee combat replacing swords; the groundwork was there. Instead, CD Projekt Red have crafted their new franchise with a completely different mechanical focus in mind.
