A. CD Projekt Red is really good at telling stories, period.

B. Open world 1st person games are uncommon, especially big-budget ones

C. The Cyberpunk style universe is pretty uncommon as well, especially in real-time RPG/action games.

Yeah the universe is a little "standard" cyberpunk, but I think this is good simply because the standard view of this universe is very under-represented, and there is a lot of room to tell some very interesting stories in a real-time format.

Pretty much all the Elder Scrolls (quite a lot), Fallout 3 and newer titles (quite some), Mirror's Edge Catalyst and the Stalker series come to mind ... probably more if I put more than 5 seconds of thought into that. Can you elaborate your statement?

I would actually say they are not so much uncommon, as much as that they are infrequent and don't come out very often.

Most of those came out over a decade ago.

Skyrim, The Witcher 3.

I'm actually surprised how many there are.
