I had a similar experience. Went netrunner, increased the difficulty and everything was still trivial.
I think a heavy movement character with blades / precision rifles is probably the most fun, darting around and doing big damage, but I found the fast twitch controls on steam deck not there for me.
Enjoyed the game and story a lot but after around 40 hours I was happily done with the game and not interested in playing more. I think I managed to get the "good" ending which was nice too.
I got properly addicted to Cyberpunk before Christmas, got to the point of starting a new character so that I could do a run through as close to complete as possible, all the gigs, all the cyberpsychos, achievements etc. Only problem is the game doesn't scale with your level too well - for a netrunner at least, pretty much all combat became trivial when you get to the high character levels.
I really enjoyed it - shame there'll be no more dlc, but there's a new game coming in a few years time apparently.
