While those games (and many others) do have excellent stories, where Cyberpunk shines for me is less in the actual storyline(s) but rather in how emotionally invested I became in the characters.

The situations they were in was less interesting to me. Like, the main story itself is mediocre at best. Many of the side stories are good, but not amazing. What is absolutely top notch, though, is the characters: their personalities, how they're portrayed, their actors (voice and animation) etc. They are likable, believable and I got emotionally invested in them more than for many games with otherwise better stories.
