The one thing I’ll say that I kinda feel is lacking with CP2077 coming from just playing the shit out of Red Dead 2 is how amazing rockstar is at creating a living/engaging environment. Every single NPC in red dead will react to you, talk to you, track you as you move around, if you bump into them they will say different phrases until they become aggressive etc. it’s very impressive. While CP the world feels a little less engaging with most of the store fronts and NPC’s just kind of doing their own thing

That is true. For such a beautiful world, it's fucking dead at the same time
CDPR has never been good at coding a living open world, even Witcher 3 was crap in that regard to NPCs.
the reality is Rockstar has been designing open worlds for a LONG time, they've mastered it down to an art.
Also helps that they have literally quadruple the budget and dev team for their games.
