Just little vignettes like that were one really obvious thing that was missing. There were a handful of places where you could see like the cops at a scene or the apartment down the hall with the guy on the ground, but there were only a few of those and they never changed; that same guy was still down on the ground in the hallway days or weeks later. Making things happen that have nothing to do with the player is a great way to make the world feel alive, and there are so many fun options for that in a cyberpunk setting.

Yeah exactly. That shit ends up making it feel like a model train set. Beautiful and well made but not alive. Just a carefully crafted scene.
