I’m right now a good amount in the game (just completed PL) and plan to try out all character quests, sidequests and gigs before finishing the game to really get the most of it but am worried about burnout since I’ve hit max level and got all the perk shards (I think). Any good stuff for content or QoL, like say more diverse encounters and radiant job types?

    Welcome to Night City is a good starting point as a mod pack. Tons of bug fixes, overhauls driving for the better, adds a ton of “immersive” mods like being able to order drinks at bars and actually drink them there with animations, and covers a lot of the basic Quality of Life mods you’d expect.

    On top of that:

    • There’s a series of mods that add more “faction” themed unique weapons, and they tend to be added to new little scenes when yoh find them to add extra flavor.
    • There’s a mod that completely overhauls the stealth mechanics and adds a brand new upgrade tree around it.
    • There’s a mod that adds “chipware”, a concept from the tabletop game that was cut, and one shown in the Edgerunners anime, where you can slot chips into your neck to temporarily unlock perks later on the tech tree. There are ways to unlock them permanently, and custom perks too. It adds a lot more depth to builds.

    That’s all I have off the top of my head, not at my PC.

    There are some big name combat overhaul mods that I’ve been interested in, but when I last checked like half a year ago, they hadn’t seemed to be in a remotely “stable” state.

      All Vehicles Can Steer

      I used to pray for times like this.

      Guess I have most bases covered here though I am hoping to find also mods which add more enemy encounters (Cyberpsychos, gang hit squads, independent Afterlife mercs, etc). Just to make NC a more dangerous place, especially once you rise up in street cred.

      They Will Remember, which isn’t on the list, looks interesting but I would find it more annoying than anything if gangers just attack me on sight (as opposed to playing “nice” in public and setting up ambushes).
