Cyberpunk 2077 - NO SPOILERS!
Discussion
I can guess which part of the story your on. I’d say that once you’re at the point that you are starting to take revenge on people then yes the tone does lift. It’s more giving people a deserved ass kicking from then on, albeit dependent on your choices and play style.
Don’t wait to do side missions they are often linked to the story and the world as a whole. They have an arc of their own and you meet people who can be of use later on. You also get cool weapons and level ups.

After reading the Reddit thread that I've Iinked below, I've decided I'm not going to do the Tower ending (the new one introduced by Phantom Liberty) as it sounds as bad as the Arasaka ending in many ways, and that ending genuinely upset me and I suffered from depression for a few days after and I don't want that again. I will stay with my Panam + Judy ending

Not sure what I'm going to do now as I've done almost all the side gigs from all the Fixers, romanced Judy and River, become besties with Panam, and chooms with Kerry, and completed all their quests as a result. I've really only got random NCPD incidents left.
I guess I could start a new playthrough as a corpo. But it just feels like my V's story is as a female streetkid and anything else feels wrong.

Yes, I agree. The game makes you think you are under some kind of deadline and that you must plough on with the main story, but that is absolutely not the case. Indeed, if you don't pursue all the Panam story then you will lock yourself out of at least one possible ending and also quite a lot of important stuff. So take your time and have fun with all the side quests. Don’t wait to do side missions they are often linked to the story and the world as a whole.

This advice also applies to Fallout 4. Shaun who?

Yep. Also a lot of the dialogue around V’s health and choices happens in the side missions. I found that once I’d made a kind of peace living with Johnny / the disease in my system I became quite judge dredd in my approach to deciding who to help, who to let live and who not to. You don’t become a night city legend otherwise imo.
I started my 2nd playthrough today, as I had done absolutely everything in my first. All side missions, all gigs, all cyberpsychos, and every single NCPD scan.
Thought that this time I would be a Corpob
h rather than a Streetkid.
I was hoping for a totally different life path, but the initial mission was all too short and then it joined up with my first playthrough. Now I'm wondering if I really want to grind through it all again.

I just bought this a couple of days ago and have put a few hours in (just started act 2).
I really wasn’t sure if I would like it as it’s not the sort of thing I would usually play but I’m hooked! The graphics are astounding, making good use of my 4090 now! Gameplay seems good, looking forward to seeing how it progresses.

You've done exactly the same as me. I changed my whole play style as well though, had a netrunner build the first playthrough but I've now gone for purely physical blades/power weapons with no hacking at all. Has made replaying the missions just as enjoyable, although I am now including Phantom Liberty in the second playthrough which I hadn't played until now to mix it up.Thought that this time I would be a Corpob

You know, I'd forgotten just how annoying Judy's vocal fry is in larger doses. Later on in the game she doesn't talk so much, even as a romance partner, but when you first meet her she talks a lot.
Also, I've realised how scrawny and thin she is too. I wish I could date Claire, despite the utter Deathrace psycho that she is.

- plus you will find that there are multiple ways to tackle most of the gigs.

Jeez the transition from Act 1 to Act 2 takes forever. I wish there were a "skip all this st; this ain't my first rodeo" button.
