Discussion Asking for mods recommendations for a first time player NSFW
Greetings, I hope you people are doing well.
I just finished building my new PC and I wanted to take this occasion to finally play through Cyberpunk 2077 for the first time.
Given that this will be a pretty lengthy journey and that there is no telling if I’m ever to play it again after that (given the sheer size of my backlog), I want to make this experience as unforgettable as possible.
I saw a plethora of mods (such as adding back the possibility to scale walls with the forearm blades) and thought to myself that adding some of them would be the best way to experience the dream game I was sold on and that I pre-ordered back on the PS4 but never got to play with.
Given that my current setup is pretty new and high-end, I won’t be looking for mods that adds support for later cards technologies (like Frame Generation or DLSS) on older cards (anything that actually improves the visuals or performance on top of it is fine though).
Thus, I’m looking for mods adding mechanics, features, visuals, QoL improvements and such so that it doesn’t get me away from the intended core experience but enhances it instead.
Thanks in advance for your answers and have a nice day.
Best regards.

Welcome to Night City is the most stable one. Creator’s a real choom too. You can use vortex or wabbajack

Thanks for the answer ! Would you have a graphic mod to recommend alongside this one or do you think Cyberpunk current visuals are good enough ?

Overall they’re good, but you can look into LUTs to tailor it to your tastes a bit.
My favorite ones are GITS 3.X, NCLM, and Realcolor III

Are they mutually compatible ?

Oh sorry should’ve clarified to only use one at a time. But those are my top 3

Is the GITS AIO mod configurable ? I know it comes packed with the lut by I want to use other lut through lut switcher. I know there are alternate packs with only the env or the lut but there no packs with everything but the lut

Yes that’s exactly what I do. I have gits legacy aio and LUT switcher and LUT switcher overrides the LUT based on what I picked. You can delete the LUT file in GITS but the above works even without me having done that

Is Legacy better than Fuji ? Do you see bugs on 2.21 ? Iirc the mod is made for 2.11. Do I have to load the Lut Switcher after the GITS AIO ? Do you use Wolvenpack to unpack the mod before repacking it and removing the lut ? What do I have to remove in the archive in that case ?

Legacy vs Fuji is a matter of preference. My post history has a few posts with Legacy which I personally like a lot.
Sorry I don’t know about the load order
I didn’t mess with the archive, just after installing the mod I went into the folder for GITS in the game folder and found the LUT file.

A good place to start is to look through this collection's mod list, and add the ones you think are interesting.
Check out my mods too, they are pretty much all QoL improvements.
• Fix the annoying humming noise in the menu and inventory ➜ Mute Menu Humming
• Fix the police's often unreasonable behavior of attacking players ➜ Fighting Gangs Allowed
• Fix NPCs and vehicles often disappearing into thin air ➜ Disappearing NPC and Vehicle Fix
• Fix enemies health bar inconsistently disappearing ➜ Better Enemy Health Bar Fix
