I respect the love of a PSX game, thumbs up.
What do you mean by both versions of 2077?

I really like checking out oldies in their original form, even if there's a "better" remake/remaster available. It's fun to see what those games had to offer in their prime.

As for Cyberpunk, I'm playing both the most up to date version (2.13 with Phantom Liberty + mods) and the legacy one (version 1.16).

There were a lot of gameplay and design changes in the 2.0 release. Since I played the game before that, I had a constant reaction of some things being... off. I wasn't sure whether my mixed feelings had to do with nostalgia or if I really liked some of the old gameplay more, so I decided to reinstall the legacy version to confirm (thanks CDPR for keeping it available).

Long story short, while I do like some of the things they did with the game and genuinely believe it's a better product overall, I'd be lying if I said I prefer the new version. I still have fun and all the technical improvements, free content and access to mods make for an easy choice but boy do I wish there was a way to port those to the legacy version. There are a few mods that restore some of the old design choices which gives me a sliver of hope for a potential larger restoration in the future. For now though, I'll just keep enjoying what's there.

Sounds like how I view No Mans Sky. Im one of the wierdos that really enjoyed how alone and wierd the game used to be.

Does NMS allow you to play the older patches at least? It really sucks whenever games change significantly without an ability to stick with what you like.
