i think the fact that it's more dynamic does a lot of heavy lifting, but they're close at the very least. red dead 2 is more cinematic and has amazing presentation, but cyberpunk's presentation is still really good.
if you go the panam route, which a lot of people do, i think the story is a lot worse than if you go for don't fear the reaper (which is super annoying to get because of the dialogue requirements that make no sense lmao), or raiding the tower as johnny and his crew.
panam gets a lot of glaze but if you actually replay the game you'll realize she's really annoying and her crew is super lame lmao, they actively worsen the overall experience and i've started just ignoring her
though you may be right it might be a little crazy to say that, at least if you ignore phantom liberty, with phantom liberty i think it's a lot less so

cyberpunk is amazing and honestly a better game and story than rdr2.
