I have PDF copies of Cyberpunk 2020 (2nd edition, from 1990), Cyberpunk v3.0 (from 2005), and Cyberpunk Red (from 2020), and I’ve actually never read any of them until now. It’s the kind of TTRPG I’ve always wanted to play but never had anyone to run the game, so I’ve had the PDFs but never really dug into them.

Since wrapping up Cyberpunk 2077 a few weeks ago, I’ve been reading through the rulebooks, comparing the differences between versions, It’s so fascinating how the video game uses characters and storylines dating back to the original 1988 game. I imagined the CD Projekt Red game would have been all new storylines and material, but they stuck pretty close to the original.

Not only did Idris Elba portray Solomon Reed in Phantom Liberty, he also portrayed the DJ known as Mr. Kipper, and he produced original music for Mr. Kipper’s tracks.

In the ticket booth at the Mega Ride in Pacifico, there’s a safe that’s locked. However, if you leave food in the bowl for the cat that’s sitting on the counter, it’ll unlock the safe.

One thing’s for certain: Cherami Leigh is an amazing voice actor! I loved her work as Clare in the English dub of Claymore, Cecily Campbell in The Sacred Blacksmith, Primula in Shuffle!, and Wahanly Shume in Tenchi Muyo! War on Geminar, and I couldn’t imagine Cyberpunk’s V without her. Her work greatly contributed to my enjoyment of the game.

Once you’ve finished the Phantom Liberty story, if you choose to keep playing, at some point, you’ll get a text message from Aguilar that sort of gives props to you for successfully impersonating her and says you should get together some day to compare notes.

I love it! I had been wondering what she would think if she ever found out you impersonated her.

I finished the Phantom Liberty storyline last night and the main world story today, and I’m really not sure what to think of this ending.

I really enjoyed the game, but I’m at a loss for words over how this ending makes me feel. Maybe a little confused? Perplexed? Perhaps dubious?

I picked up a data shard that lists each of these parties, but I can’t remember the name of the data shard, and I can’t find it in my list of shards. Does anyone know the name of the data shard that lists these parties in Dogtown?

I hate it when I’m about to kill some enemies in this game, and I overhear one of them talking on the phone with their kid, saying something like, “Daddy will be home soon. I love you, too.”

Sorry, but daddy’s not going to be home soon. I was hired to take him out.

Ugh.

J'ai continué.
Woao.
Y'a vraiment des scènes de fou.
La séquence du tank-araignée est assez épique et digne de Ghost in the Shell.

Même les histoires secondaires sont très intéressantes, comme l'histoire avec les Peralez et ses implications colossales.
Et tout le lore, les tonnes de mémos qu'on peut lire partout, et qui en disent long sur les sales manigances des gangs et des corpos.
Tellement de petits détails. 👌‍

OMG! I just looked in the bathroom mirror in my mega-building apartment, while Judy was over for a date, and Judy came up behind me and smacked me on the ass!

When I say I want more games like #Cyberpunk2077, I don't mean more games with #cyberpunk as a theme. I mean I want to feel the layers of emotion that come with romancing a character who spent the whole game seeing things she loved destroyed, then invited me to dive into a lake where her flooded town lies, then tells me that with me she feels hopeful, and sits with me in silence as you drink coffee listen to the waves by the shore and see the neon city in the distance. God, what a story.

The other dialog that I think speaks to this comes from a character who is entirely bought in to the Corpo world: Takemura.

Takemura is a true believer. He was elevated from poverty to high status by Arasaka. He believes that, eventually, given enough time and power, Corpos will save rest of the world too.

https://youtu.be/wj4eqATAP6k?t=324

Takemura: "I remember the chemical stench of the canal where we boys washed our shirts. Corporate transporters sometimes passed through our slum. Arasaka selecting children, but only the clean ones... you show me filthy streets as if no other world exists, as if nothing else is possible. What of the millions who work for Arasaka and receive stability, safety?"

V: "And the Chiba 11 slum rats? They're there scraping scraps out of scoptins. Corpos decided that too."

Takemura: "We cannot fix everything at once."

Speaking of playing the guitar, this little untitled robot side quest was pretty rad.

#Cyberpunk2077

A robot plays guitar. In the game, its hands appear to move naturally on the fretboard as it strums and picks the strings.

If you come across anyone playing a guitar in this game, stop and watch their fingers on the fretboard and the strumming/picking patterns. They are spot on! I love this attention to detail.

“The Hunt” was a rough side quest, but it was a great story with good character development and voice acting.

I just came across a data shard titled “Archived Conversation: Charlize Fury and Dakota Smith.” It was with some bodies surrounding a big, multi-wheeled armored vehicle in the Biotechnica Flats area. I’m pretty sure it’s a Mad Max: Fury Road reference.
