Surprising nobody, Reddit Corp threatening a gaming sub of a fanatically anti-corporate video game doesn’t go as they’d hoped.
The mod team have basically decided that “Fuck Reddit” is the way forward, and appear to have practically total support of their entire sub for the choice taken.
Presumably, we’re about to get a Cyberpunk community on Fediverse soon. :p
I’ll be honest I was kinda waiting for r/CyberpunkGame to do this, given the lean of the game (even if you went with the most Corpo-ish ending, it was still kinda anti-Corpo). Good on them for taking a stand.
As a nomad, I finished the game leaving Night City with the Aldercados & Judy. Seemed the best ending…haven’t tried the others yet. I think that’s the most anti-corpo ending you get out of the game.
The other endings are definitely worth going through! Thematically, I think the secret ending is actually the most possible to be canon (i.e., going out for all time in a blaze of glory), but in terms of character development, I agree, The Star ending with Judy and Panam is the most cohesive.
At least until we get Phantom Liberty. From the trailers, it definitely looks like there’s gonna be a continuation or development in V’s story. And I don’t want to read too much into it, but if you remember the base game’s launch, almost all the cinematics/graphic banners featured a male V. But he was switched out for female V in the marketing of the game sometime during CP2077’s great fiasco. It’s been all female V, even up to now.
Speaking about Phantom Liberty it reminds me. I finished the game prior to the patch that included items about David. Do you know if the events of Edgerunner are supposed to occur canonically during the events V’s experiences, or afterwards?
