Games that have long scripted sections you can't skip and sometimes even save. Next level, you'll have to move around and answer questions so can't even go take a shit.

Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk both had sections like that. Loved the games, hated that bullshit.

Which section in cyberpunk are you referring to? I was 100% on board with what you were saying and then that stumped me.

All I can think of is maybe at the start of Phantom Liberty? On first arrival at Dogtown you were locked in to a string of missions for a while but I don't remember if you couldn't pause or save because I did all of that part in one go anyway.

I don't remember if you couldn't pause or save

I'm pretty certain that you could

The whole section between the takemura junkyard cutscene and waking up in your appartment doesn't allow saving, however iirc when the game came out it was the ENTIRE heist sequence once you got to yorinobus room.

I could be wrong it's been years since I played. Just have a memory of wanting to take a break and not being able to.
