The main story has a beautiful layout? Or the city? Or the side missions?
I kinda like the city, but sometimes you only need to go 200 meters and need to take some weird spiraling network of turnpikes and off ramps just to get there. That part's kinda annoying. There always seems to be a side mission going down near where I am (at least within city limits), so I don't mind that too much -- mostly been doing those today to scare up funds.
The main story's been alright so far, even though I'm mostly putting it off since the Hanako (???) mission said it had a point of no return attached. Not sure if it cancels any other missions, but I mostly just started sidequesting after I saw it. Might just do it anyway since there's only so much to "help the cop lady out" and "kill gangbangers in the alley" requests. Pretty good for finding orange equipment now that I'm almost Lv40, though.
Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends
And watch the city spread out just like a jet's flame
