So after 30 hours with Cyberpunk, I feel I can definitely recommend it with a few caveats.

Reviews and the internet are full of talk about bugs. I have noticed almost none of them, likely because I have an RTX 3070 GPU. If you have an older PC you may want to hold off on getting it, and definitely dont get it on console. On my rig the game looks drop dead gorgeous.

Gameplay is first person RPG with some grand theft auto. The focus is on the RPG and story, not on vehicular mass murder. The story and the side missions are just spectacular. Add to it the tabletop Cyberpunk setting I grew up with straight out of the late 80s and it is a winner. The level of detail is just astounding. Every poster, radio station, TV show, advert, the clothing styles, the cars. I often just pause to take it all in. Today I stopped in the middle of a mission to watch a Mr Studd implant advert on a random screen. Just hilarious.

The way you approach missions is entirely up to you. Some people will prefer sneaking and hacking their way through, others will run in with katanas and mono wires to dismember everything in sight. I have enjoyed focusing on a high reflex and high intelligence build letting me try to sneak in and if it fails quick hack enemies while I gun them down. I can easily see myself playing the game again with a different build entirely.

If you think it sounds appealing and if you have a decent rig just go ahead and get it. Ignore the people hating on the game game. They will always find something small to critique. Night city is a hellish meat grinder of despair. Real life doesn't have to be.
