Oh man, I also watched AKIRA when I was around the age of 10 so I get what you mean, then back in 2019 I watched Blade Runner for the first time ever and it was there when I fell in love with the asthetic of the cyberpunk style and since then I've craved anything that has a little bit of cyberpunk in it, tho I've never been close to play the Cyberpunk game and ofc I heard of the complains, I think it's a shame that the game has fallen into all that can be considered bad in a videogame cause as you said it looks great and with that it could have been a bigger deal than what it became.
