I feel like it never broke my immersion cause how often are you stopping every stranger in a real life metropolis to talk to them? Seeing all these nameless people walking by is very much what it’s like to walk around a city in real life.

While true you can talk to more NPCs, the largest city in Skyrim has like 40 people. I find cyberpunk’s world feels more realistically populated for a giant city.

Afaik they don’t. Something about storing them at low temp changes the thickness of the skin. At least that’s what I’ve been told working on produce.
