I finished my first playthrough of Cyberpunk 2077. I absolutely love the setting for the game and hopefully they'll make a sequel. Cyberpunk is going to join the very small selection of games I

I generally agree with @Dharkstare@mastodon.world that first playthroughs should be vanilla, but I have very little time to game, and Cyberpunk is huge. I'm not trying to accomplish anything, I just want to fuck around. So I'm currently playing my first playthrough of Cyberpunk with mods, and it's fantastic for goofing off.

With all that said, there are 2 mods I would suggest for Cyberpunk, even for an otherwise vanilla playthrough.

The first is No Intro Videos, which gets rid of the unskippable logos and health warnings that are displayed every time the game loads. It's one of my most appreciated QoL mods.

The other is Simple Flashlight. Perhaps a little controversial for a vanilla playthrough, but I stand by it. I actually don't use the flashlight very much, but every so often I end up somewhere that so dark, I can't find my way out of the room/building/wherever. It's during those infrequent times I'm grateful for a little extra light.

@BotsRuinedEverything My opinion on games and mods is that the first playthrough should always be vanilla. This allows you to get a feel for what the game is actually like and allows you to provide an honest review for the game. It also lets you know what parts of the game need improvement so you know what mods to look for.

One thing I would suggest is to get the Phantom Liberty expansion. It fits really well with the rest of the game and adds a merchant to buy missed Iconic weapons.
