The main story has multiple endings, and also a hidden ending. It's not really that single choice. Also, there's all the characters and how they interact has some impact on the end story depending. Some side quests can similarly become available or unavailable depending on some choices. There's also the relationship with Johnny, etc. The roleplaying aspect apparently improved in Phantom Liberty. But I wouldn't say CP is worse than Skyrim! Both have their moments

I agree with you on the point it was decent even before 2.0 and that there's missing features. If you're on PC though, there's a lot of mechanics added in by mods too!
