The fact is, vanilla Bethesda games are as dry as they come. At least when it comes to any form of adult content, even implied. Baldur's Gate 3, on the other hand, is down bad through, and through.
From my understanding of table-top cyberpunk RPG, when using level scaling, levels still matter, but they don't play the only major factor during encounters.

Scaling rewards the player's engagement and skills, while no-scaling rewards time and effort put into levelling your character. Both have their ups and downs, and most games use a hybrid implementation with some leeway for the scaling (skyrim for example).
