I've only watched a couple episodes so far, but it's very different from the first iteration. One element I absolutely loved was the understanding of lore they've already shown. After watching the first season or playing the game, most people understand that cyberpsychosis usually ends in death.

In one of the first scenes, there's a cyberpsycho who has Platinum-coverage with Trauma Team. He starts mowing down Arasaka and killing people in public. MaxTac (NCPD's response team) arrives to shut down the cyberpsycho, but is prohibited from intervening by Trauma Team's extraction squad. Platinum-coverage is one of the very few ways a cyberpsycho can survive, as MaxTac will usually kill them on the spot. The cyberpsycho's chrome is later repo'd by the ripperdocs and his house is foreclosed to cover the recovery bill. A simple scene, but I love that it shows the different factions and how the order of Night City is not ruled by a government... but by corporations and eddies.
