i skip the dialogue between V and the hispanic dude because they do that corny annoying mixing in spanish words with his sentences constantly. that's such obnoxious writing, we get it, you're natively spanish.

The translators translate what a person means to say. They didn’t mean to say [analogue for word x], they meant to say x. Like how ennui is a French word, but there is no English equivalent for what it describes. So instead of translating puta to DIRTY PUSSY or [THING THAT IS NORMALLY GOOD BUT IS NOW TAINTED BEYOND REPAIR] it just keeps it as puta.

>wasn't the story fine?
I spent ~110 hours on a 100% run with everything unlocked and all options available at the end. The story has the most thoroughly and thoughtfully explored motifs you'll ever come across outside of some select literature. It's phenomenal, full stop. If you take it all in, live in the character fully, it's also on of the most emotionally powerful and rewarding narratives you'll ever experience, once all is said and done.
Once CDPR release a patch or two and put a bow on the game, I'm doing another 100% playthrough with Phantom Liberty started and concluded at the perfect times in the narrative and everything unlocked for the end. So hyped for it but glad to be patient.
idk about now but trying to 100% the game when it came out was way too drawn out. it should of been 100% at around 80%. a lot of the cotent was repeated crap
Lol, you realize its an open world game where you decide the pacing right?
Aside from that its the most atmospheric, immersive game with the best written characters ever made.
what? No Irenicus is not a better written character than Jacky Welles for example.
BG2 might be one of my favorite games but it doesnt have that level of writing period.
Haven’t seen male V in any promotional material since before launch so definitely gonna be a female. Love the game but will not watch for that reason. Also female V voice is terrible and super tryhard.

Cope.
Firstly: being a troony is a mental illness that has nothing to do with intelligence, so even if self-inserting was inherently low IQ (it isn't) this is a non-sequitur response, which you'd realize if you weren't low IQ yourself.
Secondly: I'd go so far as to argue that self-inserting is actually the most intelligent way to play an RPG in the first place. How you choose to pilot a fictional character through a series of moral quandaries is entertaining but ultimately irrelevant, because it tells you nothing about yourself as a person in the real world. Unlike literature or film, where the viewer has no agency, the value of 'game as art' is that it's a truly reflexive medium and by embodying yourself as a character in the narrative you can personalize the experience and extract deeper meaning. Without doing this, you might as well be watching a movie, or at least playing a game that has a fixed narrative and avatar. The only other explanation for choosing not to self-insert is identity experimentation (dramatis personae as Jungian thought experiment), but this doesn't explain why you'd choose to be a woman outside of personally experimenting with being a woman.
>inb4 tl;dr homosexual I just want to stare at woman's ass
I could refute this also, but in this case there's no point because you can't even third person in Cyberpunk. Even if you could, the setting itself is already neoliberal turbocoomer hell with no shortage of woman's ass, so what's the point?
No, I think you're voluntarily embodying a woman for 100 hours because (whether you'll admit it or not) you're now far enough down the troony pipeline that virtual transvestism appeals to you. You are in the coping phase before fully trooning. Seek help before it's too late.

You're moronic. Self-inserting is inherently less intellectually stimulating because you're just relying on gut intuitions instead of thinking about how another person would behave based on their past. When self-inserting, I'm just picking the most optimal outcome in every situation, which is boring compared to playing a flawed character who can sometimes make stupid or selfish decisions, which they can learn from in the future or simply ignore and double down. imagining these small character development arcs is the most fun part of playing any narrative driven RPG for me.

>Self-inserting is inherently less intellectually stimulating because you're just relying on gut intuitions instead of thinking about how another person would behave based on their past.
It's very telling that you'll read into the decisions of other characters as intrinsic to a complex and enigmatic psychodrama but when it comes to your own decisions and motivations you treat them as a series of banal and disposable gut intuitions. Is this the true nature of the NPC mind on autopilot? It would certainly explain a lot about the normie obsession with reality TV and prying into celebrities' lives. Fascinating, really.
Also, I already pre-empted your braindead counterfactual. See: >The only other explanation for choosing not to self-insert is identity experimentation (dramatis personae as Jungian thought experiment), but this doesn't explain why you'd choose to be a woman outside of personally experimenting with being a woman.
You never actually addressed this crucial point. Playing dress up is fine (psychologically necessary, even), but dressing up as a woman specifically? What's the reason?

NTA, but it's inherently more interesting to see how someone else would react to a situation than you. Not because your actions are boring on their face, but because they're familiar to you since you already know how you react to different situations in life. This is all assuming competent writers, though, which is why games like Bethesda Fallouts are entirely self-inserts. They know themselves that they can't write a compelling main character story so they start you as a blank slate every time.

>The project will be made with Anonymous Content, which has produced shows like True Detective and Mr. Robot, and movies like The Revenant and Spotlight. This is said to be “a live-action project set in the world of its best-selling video game, Cyberpunk 2077.
The scenes where V is rolling around on the ground coughing and crying while having schizophrenic hallucinations are probably more endearing if it's a young girl with wide eyes. There's less time to make the audience invested when it's a movie, so V needs to be more immediately sympathetic.
the cyberpunk aesthetic in 2077 is fricking garbage. we're not the only ones that think this right? its like a goofy parody of cyberpunk. there's only like 1 area thats good.

You mean this is not a sprawling nightmare of urban development?
I personally liked 2077 but yeah, it's troonypunk not cyberpunk
I wanted a blade runner style world, there's too many colors
walking around during the daytime absolutely destroyed my immersion
felt like I was in current day mexico, instead of the future
Time of day or date played no part in game.
So why the frick wasn't it just night time.
Don't have clock. Its just night. When you have to wait. You got to bed. You sleep. When you wake up. It's night again.
Just like vtmb, always night.
Game would have had better atmosphere and probably easier to do.
It's sucks. I played again when PL hit. Becouse system requirements went up. I lowered crowd density.
When I was driving around. I got good look around. It hit me then how stupid most of night city looks.
I like areas that are more slum like. But not pasifica.
Megabuilings are really nice. Slum in China town is nice. When there is any verticality. Its not that bad.
But 90% of city is just bad.
I'd prefer a Walter John Williams adaptation but this is to the same effect really (I think they will have to pay him at some point so I guess it will be a broader rights package, there is no point creating a Marvel/Sony problem out of a relatively modest IP).
I'm not bothered about Neuromancer but I'd really like a Pattern Recognition adaptation before it dates beyond being usable.
Haven’t seen male V in any promotional material since before launch so definitely gonna be a female. Love the game but will not watch for that reason. Also female V voice is terrible and super tryhard.
It is though.
I usually play male characters (ie. Alexios in Assassins Creed Odyssey which is unpopular) but female V was much better in every scene after I compared her with my male V playthrough.
I'm gonna guess if CDPR confirms any canon ending they'll say for male V it was suicide and for female V the dlc ending where she's perfectly fine at the end and makes a new start
PL ending.
Then you can start game two like neuromancer.
V is in gutter becouse they can't use chrome. Doing drugs and thinking about suicide.
They get approached by mysterious figure who promises to fix them if they join to his suicade mission
I've never played either The Witcher or Cyberpunk but I've watched some gameplay and noticed that these Poles can't write dialog to save their lives.
For example, they think that Geralt sounds cooler if they remove the subject in every sentence he says.
So instead of saying... >"I've been looking for some monsters. It seems like some came through here. Do you know anything about that?"
... Geralt will say: >"Been looking for some monsters. Seems like some came through here. Know anything about that?"
And yes, some people cut out the verb when they're talking but they don't do it every fricking sentence. It's like some Pole noticed some English-speakers cut out the verb every so often and amped it 100%.
Except for when he's on the road by himself or on a hunt for weeks at a time or when he's in a castle in the middle of the mountains with nothing but other witchers for the entire winter every year.
Why do you even comment on a series when you don't even follow it?
It's becouse they moved from writing in their native language to writing in English.
In phantom liberty. Dialogue writing is absolutely horible. To point where you can't ignore it anymore
Brah, that's terse speech. It's common in a lot of countries in the Western World. In Canada, the province I live in is considered rural, aka primitive, than the rest and the majority of the town I live in are fond of skipping the subject in their speech, because it saves time. It's not considered more "cool", people just find it more efficient and it sounds more "natural" than say, a foreigner never using contractions.
That's just hollywood versio. Early books were much more intresting and cynical from dick to Gibson.
Then hollywood just came and turned it into religious goob
Was playing this garbage recently and encountered a bug where the minimap is permanently shaking and making an annoying sound and nothing fixes it. Wound up uninstalling it.
There was a moment where people had collectively to realize that edgerunners was good because they let a good writer write it and good animators animate it and that is not automatically the case for anything else. Instead they let it breath new life into a game that shares nothing but wiki info with edgerunners
It was one of biggest budgets games have had. And development was done in cheep but hurt belt. Cdpr is kinda notorious even then paying like shit.
Why was game so expensive then?
It had massive marketing budget. Anime was part of that. They made whole anime to promote game.
Tv show is probably happening becouse anime hit big. And netflix wants more.
Or its part of marketing for next game.
Cdpr said its time to start working for next cyberpunk game.
Judging how long tv shows take to hit airways.
Starting now. They might relase this show same time as game comes out.
timberlake. or pattinson. they could make it work. but that said ... the cyberpunk fantasy is sort of played out. its fricked up because wa re sort of getting there irl... i think we should push the envelope regarding cool science fiction of now, we shouldnt just dwell in 80s cool nostalgia
Hilarious how they didn't even have to spend money on marketing. That one big E3 trailer sealed the deal and they were still riding off of the success of Witcher 3.
But then the veneer slowly began to lose its polish: >Original devs gradually getting replaced by blue hairs >Announcing Keanu as a major selling point of the game even though nobody really cared beforehand >Commercials with Billy Eilish songs leading up to release
It's just another blockbuster story game where you lose all of your agency as soon as Keanu comes in.
It's hilarious how wrong you are >no marketing budget
Biggest marketing budget for a video game ever >lose all agency once Silverhand shows up
You can disagree with him and do the opposite of what he wants the whole game
>It only took 3 years for a AAA game to finally become somewhat fully playable.
When did buying major video games at the forefront become an outright scam? You're lucky to find something at release that isn't completely half-baked.
You know I always have this really strong aversion to doing shit like this for highly derivative video games that are just aiming to make an interactive version of a property that already exists. >Oh we're gonna make an Uncharted movie >Oh we're gonna make a Dungeons & Dragon movie >Oh we're gonna make a Cyberpunk movie
Like b***h we already have Indiana Jones, Lord of the Rings and Blade Runner, these do not need to exist.
I'd almost respect them more if they WERE just original movies or shows cause then they wouldn't feel shackled by weird concepts that only make sense as video game mechanics.
I gave up on the game during the tutorial where the corporate guy just kept fricking talking and talking and talking
I hate video games. In movies where someone talks you get cool shots and you get to see emotions.
This guy was just talking about fricking stocks or something over and over and you don't get different camera angles, you don't get to see any emotion on his face, the voice actor barely emoted. And he did it for like 5 minutes. Unbearable, video games are terrible. I just wanted to shoot someone and do like cyber slash idk, I hate how all video games try to be movies because they all suck at it. All good video games have barely any story and just have you go do shit, if I want story I have books and movies, I want to play games where you press buttons not where you have to stand still and watch a shitty character model recite his lines (badly). It's just inferior to movies. Games should be about pressing buttons not watching the screen without pressing anything.
Shitty game gets a soulless TV show to go along with it? OP is a massive gay for supporting the new Hollywood goyslop that is video game adaptations. Video game movies/shows are the new capeshit.
If you are excited for this you have dogshit taste and should consider suicide.

there are about zero fetch quests in the game, dunno what you have been playing.
technically all the ncpd quests are "fetch" you just don't have to return anything anywhere.

The only other explanation for choosing not to self-insert is identity experimentation (dramatis personae as Jungian thought experiment), but this doesn't explain why you'd choose to be a woman outside of personally experimenting with being a woman.
>inb4 tl;dr homosexual I just want to stare at woman's ass
I could refute this also, but in this case there's no point because you can't even third person in Cyberpunk. Even if you could, the setting itself is already neoliberal turbocoomer hell with no shortage of woman's ass, so what's the point?
No, I think you're voluntarily embodying a woman for 100 hours because (whether you'll admit it or not) you're now far enough down the troony pipeline that virtual transvestism appeals to you. You are in the coping phase before fully trooning. Seek help before it's too late.
lmao mad tard is mad

>feeble no u from tard
lmao
seriously man, you're screaming at random people calling them trannies because you can't comprehend a separation between thought and belief, seeing and being, etc. you're literally incapable of thinking in the abstract and project that onto everyone else.
you typed out a truckload of shit and now refuse to read anything anyone else says.
was it just ctrl+v?
Great post. Agreed 100%
>tard thinks no one can tell he samegays
sad
If you're going to call out samegay at least learn how to detect samegay first, newbie.
>stupid person thinks being stupid is smart
every time
>tl;dr: actual autism
It’s funny how they’re basically terrified of anime because they know they’ll instantly turn into a troony.
You're moronic. Self-inserting is inherently less intellectually stimulating because you're just relying on gut intuitions instead of thinking about how another person would behave based on their past. When self-inserting, I'm just picking the most optimal outcome in every situation, which is boring compared to playing a flawed character who can sometimes make stupid or selfish decisions, which they can learn from in the future or simply ignore and double down. imagining these small character development arcs is the most fun part of playing any narrative driven RPG for me.
>Self-inserting is inherently less intellectually stimulating because you're just relying on gut intuitions instead of thinking about how another person would behave based on their past.
It's very telling that you'll read into the decisions of other characters as intrinsic to a complex and enigmatic psychodrama but when it comes to your own decisions and motivations you treat them as a series of banal and disposable gut intuitions. Is this the true nature of the NPC mind on autopilot? It would certainly explain a lot about the normie obsession with reality TV and prying into celebrities' lives. Fascinating, really.
Also, I already pre-empted your braindead counterfactual. See:
>The only other explanation for choosing not to self-insert is identity experimentation (dramatis personae as Jungian thought experiment), but this doesn't explain why you'd choose to be a woman outside of personally experimenting with being a woman.
You never actually addressed this crucial point. Playing dress up is fine (psychologically necessary, even), but dressing up as a woman specifically? What's the reason?
NTA, but it's inherently more interesting to see how someone else would react to a situation than you. Not because your actions are boring on their face, but because they're familiar to you since you already know how you react to different situations in life. This is all assuming competent writers, though, which is why games like Bethesda Fallouts are entirely self-inserts. They know themselves that they can't write a compelling main character story so they start you as a blank slate every time.
>You never actually addressed this crucial point
It was already addressed at
. Non-morons don’t confuse what’s on screen and themselves.
fem V will be a nigress
Denzel Washington
DOUBLE DONG DENZEL!
Idris Elba
Just give us another season of edgerunners
Male V is awful
>The project will be made with Anonymous Content, which has produced shows like True Detective and Mr. Robot, and movies like The Revenant and Spotlight. This is said to be “a live-action project set in the world of its best-selling video game, Cyberpunk 2077.
>tfw didn’t hop on the anonymous content train
It's gonna be an edgerunners adaption
simu liu
troony game
it's gonna be foidV 100%
This.
They've been using female V with the dyke hair in everything now.
FemV's voice acting mogs maleV's hard, so it's not surprising.
They both sounds like edgy homosexuals
Fem V sucks and fumbles every emotional line.
Ryan Gosling
Whoever this generation's Kirsten Stewart is
The scenes where V is rolling around on the ground coughing and crying while having schizophrenic hallucinations are probably more endearing if it's a young girl with wide eyes. There's less time to make the audience invested when it's a movie, so V needs to be more immediately sympathetic.
Kind of agree, V's story was way too feminine with him crying and acting all emotional constantly. That's not the way a man should behave.
It works in the game because we spend so much time with V and know that's not how he usually behaves.
I figured it was because they wrote the lines for both male and female V exactly the same
just cast a plank of wood.
paint sunglasses on it if you like, it still won't be as cool as Deus Ex 1.
Cinemaphile has the worst jannies
he even sounds like V
Very good
What about Scott Eastwood?
There's a reason they only use fem V in all the promotional and cover art recently
Yeah
Yeah, because they're homosexuals. It's not even the original fem-V but some muttified Black person version.
CDPR got fully on board with ESG score and diversity hiring as soon as the witcher 3 released
because they used male v in the release promotions
And never again since
he's the one on the box
Only the old gen versions.
McKenna Grace
Id shove tons of hard matter into her if you know what I mean
I mean my penis.
aquafarm?
its not my ~~*cyberpunk*~~
so frickoff
the cyberpunk aesthetic in 2077 is fricking garbage. we're not the only ones that think this right? its like a goofy parody of cyberpunk. there's only like 1 area thats good.
lol
imagine sega games having better aesthetic. let alone movies, definitely lol.
>better aesthetic
id love to hear you to elaborate on that idea
nothing to elaborate brainlet, use your eye balls. matrix, bladerunner, dark city, brazil, akira, gits. could unironically name like 50 more movies and i havent even touched fricking video gaymes.
what about those movies aesthetics are better?
what about 2077s aesthetics are better than those movies?
i didnt say anything was better, i think the idea of just declaring stylistic choices and references "better" is pretty dumb and childish behavior unless you got some good arguments for dismissing specific aspects.
use your eyeballs queer. why do i need to hold your hand. you asked me why its better and i told you how. i gave some examples so if you had any common sense youd start off with comparisons on your own, like say compare cars to cars. "stylistic choice" by the way... biggest cope ever lmao. im sure it was a stylistic choice to make like 10 cars in the entire game half of which are the same but armored or have different gang stickers. unironically kys
the choice to make night city look like a "real" city ala dallas or phoenix, rather than a sprawling nightmare of urban development was a huge misstep.
>rather than a sprawling nightmare of urban development
So basically Houston?
thats a picture of houston, thanks for playing.
You mean this is not a sprawling nightmare of urban development?
I personally liked 2077 but yeah, it's troonypunk not cyberpunk
I wanted a blade runner style world, there's too many colors
walking around during the daytime absolutely destroyed my immersion
felt like I was in current day mexico, instead of the future
Night City is exactly what the future looks like
Night city is too white to be the future
Time of day or date played no part in game.
So why the frick wasn't it just night time.
Don't have clock. Its just night. When you have to wait. You got to bed. You sleep. When you wake up. It's night again.
Just like vtmb, always night.
Game would have had better atmosphere and probably easier to do.
That's stupid. Just have the inner city be so huge and cramped that you can't see the sun, like how it was described
No system could handel that.
Mine could, it's built different
enclosed spaces are easier to handle than open.
It's sucks. I played again when PL hit. Becouse system requirements went up. I lowered crowd density.
When I was driving around. I got good look around. It hit me then how stupid most of night city looks.
I like areas that are more slum like. But not pasifica.
Megabuilings are really nice. Slum in China town is nice. When there is any verticality. Its not that bad.
But 90% of city is just bad.
I'd prefer a Walter John Williams adaptation but this is to the same effect really (I think they will have to pay him at some point so I guess it will be a broader rights package, there is no point creating a Marvel/Sony problem out of a relatively modest IP).
I'm not bothered about Neuromancer but I'd really like a Pattern Recognition adaptation before it dates beyond being usable.
Eiza Gonzalez
Frick, she would be a great Judy
Logan Paul or some other all American moron.
justin timberlake
Best storyline is corpo b***h V. So basically you’d need to get a basic white b***h actress like Emma Stone to do it.
She will be black or hispanic for sure.
>hispanic
Genuinely isn't stunt casting in a game that takes place in California tbh, that would be fine
plus the corpo to street rat fall from grace would make for a good character arc
frick that shit. corpos deserve the rope no matter what. they knew what they were signing up for and deserve no redemption.
Haven’t seen male V in any promotional material since before launch so definitely gonna be a female. Love the game but will not watch for that reason. Also female V voice is terrible and super tryhard.
Right
Wrong
>Also female V voice is terrible and super tryhard.
this, only troons disagree
There's always something off about guys who insist female versions of characters are better and always play as a girl.
It is though.
I usually play male characters (ie. Alexios in Assassins Creed Odyssey which is unpopular) but female V was much better in every scene after I compared her with my male V playthrough.
Idris Elba plays V and Solomon Reed
What actresses have a sexo voice like femV? Inb4 ScarJo, she sounds like she's smokes 2 packs a day.
Karen Gillan
>tfw keanu reeves starts getting into and really understanding the character after about 4 hours of dialogue
it'll be an injustice if he doesn't have a significant role
Post above is transgender
Which ending is canon?
the space one.
The one that isn’t an ending.
King of Wands + Sun
dont fear the reaper
I'm gonna guess if CDPR confirms any canon ending they'll say for male V it was suicide and for female V the dlc ending where she's perfectly fine at the end and makes a new start
Corpo ending. So in the sequel you can find out you’re actually an engram of V as the main plot twist
>So in the sequel you can find out you’re actually an engram of V as the main plot twist
Prey did it already.
PL ending.
Then you can start game two like neuromancer.
V is in gutter becouse they can't use chrome. Doing drugs and thinking about suicide.
They get approached by mysterious figure who promises to fix them if they join to his suicade mission
The refund one
any ugly redhead sheboon with a side cut will do
I've never played either The Witcher or Cyberpunk but I've watched some gameplay and noticed that these Poles can't write dialog to save their lives.
For example, they think that Geralt sounds cooler if they remove the subject in every sentence he says.
So instead of saying...
>"I've been looking for some monsters. It seems like some came through here. Do you know anything about that?"
... Geralt will say:
>"Been looking for some monsters. Seems like some came through here. Know anything about that?"
And yes, some people cut out the verb when they're talking but they don't do it every fricking sentence. It's like some Pole noticed some English-speakers cut out the verb every so often and amped it 100%.
That's not a "sounds cooler" thing you moron, that's how all the witchers talk. It's a quirk they developed from being isolated most of the time
>It's a quirk they developed from being isolated most of the time
I seem to recall Geralt banging a new bawd every day.
Hes just like me. Antisocial and a loner.
Except for when he's on the road by himself or on a hunt for weeks at a time or when he's in a castle in the middle of the mountains with nothing but other witchers for the entire winter every year.
Why do you even comment on a series when you don't even follow it?
Sounds like brusk gruff cowboy speak.
It's becouse they moved from writing in their native language to writing in English.
In phantom liberty. Dialogue writing is absolutely horible. To point where you can't ignore it anymore
Brah, that's terse speech. It's common in a lot of countries in the Western World. In Canada, the province I live in is considered rural, aka primitive, than the rest and the majority of the town I live in are fond of skipping the subject in their speech, because it saves time. It's not considered more "cool", people just find it more efficient and it sounds more "natural" than say, a foreigner never using contractions.
How have you managed to avoid watching any cowboy or samurai movies in your entire life? Embarrassing.
Which actress has enough ass to play Panam?
Zoe Saldana aged down
Hell no.
Zendaya aged up
The guy that plays Solomon Reed in the Phantom Liberty DLC.
Cyberpunk is so easy to do. Every story is just cool aesthetics with muh "what does it mean to be human" and that's it's.
That's just hollywood versio. Early books were much more intresting and cynical from dick to Gibson.
Then hollywood just came and turned it into religious goob
Danny Devito
keanu reeves
>become a glowBlack person
>everyone either hates you now or forgets about you entirely
What did Phantom Liberty mean by this?
Ironic that Keanu is getting too old to play silverhand
silverhand is supposed to be old. he was a has-been even when he was alive.
Sean Gunn
They cant top the anime
Overrated garbage
XBOX
Finn Wolfhard
P isn't modeled after Wolfhard.
Was playing this garbage recently and encountered a bug where the minimap is permanently shaking and making an annoying sound and nothing fixes it. Wound up uninstalling it.
There was a moment where people had collectively to realize that edgerunners was good because they let a good writer write it and good animators animate it and that is not automatically the case for anything else. Instead they let it breath new life into a game that shares nothing but wiki info with edgerunners
Wasn't this game an unqualified disaster? And yet it now has expansion packs, a cartoon, and a tv series?
It was one of biggest budgets games have had. And development was done in cheep but hurt belt. Cdpr is kinda notorious even then paying like shit.
Why was game so expensive then?
It had massive marketing budget. Anime was part of that. They made whole anime to promote game.
Tv show is probably happening becouse anime hit big. And netflix wants more.
Or its part of marketing for next game.
Cdpr said its time to start working for next cyberpunk game.
Judging how long tv shows take to hit airways.
Starting now. They might relase this show same time as game comes out.
timberlake. or pattinson. they could make it work. but that said ... the cyberpunk fantasy is sort of played out. its fricked up because wa re sort of getting there irl... i think we should push the envelope regarding cool science fiction of now, we shouldnt just dwell in 80s cool nostalgia
Hilarious how they didn't even have to spend money on marketing. That one big E3 trailer sealed the deal and they were still riding off of the success of Witcher 3.
But then the veneer slowly began to lose its polish:
>Original devs gradually getting replaced by blue hairs
>Announcing Keanu as a major selling point of the game even though nobody really cared beforehand
>Commercials with Billy Eilish songs leading up to release
It's just another blockbuster story game where you lose all of your agency as soon as Keanu comes in.
Dude. It had biggest marketing budget game ever had.
>you lose all of your agency as soon as Keanu comes in.
he's little more than a monkey on your back gibbering in your ear
I'm trying to think of any time in the game that you can't tell him to frick off and I don't think there is one
and you have to tell him to frick off basically every time to get the canon ending.
Your character is dying because of him.
yeah but there is no sense of urgency
It's hilarious how wrong you are
>no marketing budget
Biggest marketing budget for a video game ever
>lose all agency once Silverhand shows up
You can disagree with him and do the opposite of what he wants the whole game
He's saying that the marketing was inessential. Everyone was going to buy it anyway after the first few rounds of trailers and gameplay previews.
Male V seems more canon to me
Nobody, because it won't be and adaptation of the game, just another story set in the setting.
>It only took 3 years for a AAA game to finally become somewhat fully playable.
When did buying major video games at the forefront become an outright scam? You're lucky to find something at release that isn't completely half-baked.
just use his VA
cute
Ryan Gosling.
You know I always have this really strong aversion to doing shit like this for highly derivative video games that are just aiming to make an interactive version of a property that already exists.
>Oh we're gonna make an Uncharted movie
>Oh we're gonna make a Dungeons & Dragon movie
>Oh we're gonna make a Cyberpunk movie
Like b***h we already have Indiana Jones, Lord of the Rings and Blade Runner, these do not need to exist.
I'd almost respect them more if they WERE just original movies or shows cause then they wouldn't feel shackled by weird concepts that only make sense as video game mechanics.
aquafarm?
these shrimp fresh?
I gave up on the game during the tutorial where the corporate guy just kept fricking talking and talking and talking
I hate video games. In movies where someone talks you get cool shots and you get to see emotions.
This guy was just talking about fricking stocks or something over and over and you don't get different camera angles, you don't get to see any emotion on his face, the voice actor barely emoted. And he did it for like 5 minutes. Unbearable, video games are terrible. I just wanted to shoot someone and do like cyber slash idk, I hate how all video games try to be movies because they all suck at it. All good video games have barely any story and just have you go do shit, if I want story I have books and movies, I want to play games where you press buttons not where you have to stand still and watch a shitty character model recite his lines (badly). It's just inferior to movies. Games should be about pressing buttons not watching the screen without pressing anything.
Film?
sounds like I'll be on the right side of history
Shitty game gets a soulless TV show to go along with it? OP is a massive gay for supporting the new Hollywood goyslop that is video game adaptations. Video game movies/shows are the new capeshit.
If you are excited for this you have dogshit taste and should consider suicide.
