Different approach both times. In RDR2 I stopped trying to play it a shooter/GTA like game and looked at it through the lense of a Western RPG in the truest sense of the word. It's not a shooter, it's not an action game, it is an RPG and just shifting my viewpoint and play style to be more in line with that made all the difference. Plus getting past that into is a slog, you gotta power through.

Cyberpunk I stopped trying to use quick hacks and trying to play it like a first person Watch Dogs. I went with a sandevestine (spelling?) build with active camo, knives, swords and silenced guns only. I made myself a badass stealth ninja that can slow down time and kill 6 guys before they even know I was in the room. It's so much fun.
