I only have it on PS4 so I can't even get 2.0 + Phantom Liberty till I can afford a new gaming computer. Even using the old systems it's such a great game.
The characters are very thoughtfully written, the atmosphere is top notch, and the themes of control and power are well reflected in the main plot and a host of side quests.
The neighborhoods all feel like unique parts of a whole, and the surprising verticality of the city makes it fun to explore, especially once you get legs upgrades.
Bikes are more fun than cars, so definitely be thinking of Akira and stick to 2 wheels when you can. Shooting people through walls or around corners is pretty fun, as is rebooting people's eyes or taking over the heavy turret of some unsuspecting defenders.
It's all powerful people. Many studies show that social power affects the brain, suppressing empathy centers.
As you get more wealth, status or fame, your brain becomes less capable of empathy and closer to the brain of a psychopath.
As long as we have hierarchies, we will be ruled by villains.
