Why Cyberpunk 2077’s Gangs Don’t Make Any Sense
Power amongst gangs in Night City's districts doesn't change or shift, should a gang be heavily affected by a questline or decision made by players. In " The Pickup " quest, players have the option to free the trapped former Maelstrom leader, Brick. Once he's freed, Brick offers V a favor, but players never see that favor from repaid, and V’s relationship with Maelstrom doesn't change. Maelstrom will still attack the player in the streets, despite V saving them from being zeroed. On the other hand, siding with Militech and Meredith Stout by supposedly getting rid of Maelstrom won’t affect the gang’s status in Watson. No gang will try to claim the district as its own, and Maelstrom members will continue to roam the a
It’s the same with the Voodoo Boys in Pacifica. In " I Walk The Line ," players have the option to side with the NetWatch agent and or stick with the Voodoo Boys and their plan. If players choose to betray the Voodoo Boys, NetWatch will kill Brigitte and the other Voodoo Boys netrunners while V fights Placide. Despite the Voodoo Boys leaders being dead, there will still be gang members roaming the streets and guarding part of Pacifica. Should players enter a restricted area, the Voodoo Boys will immediately attack. The Animals, who are also in Pacifica, won’t attempt a hostile takeover of the district with the Voodoo Boys leaders d
The multiplayer aspects of the game, which is one of the biggest reasons why the series was so popular, were glitchy, and it was almost impossible to play online, as the game’s servers couldn’t find matches. 343 Industries even had to issue an apolo
I don’t like the game - even without the questionable content, I thought most of the world was pretty uninspiring, Us Cracks were the only characters vaguely off the beaten path that I enjoyed, and rebelling against what the game wanted from me by using it as a fashion simulator (or speaking to the people making it into a fashion magazine ) was the most fun I had. But still, it’s a blockbuster release, and I take no pleasure in seeing the people who like it - even the people who supported it at its most toxic - getting screwed over like this. I’m not winning because they’re losing. Nobody is winning except the people making money, and that’s what got Cyberpunk 2077 into this mess in the first pl
Cyberpunk 2077, the biggest cautionary tale in modern gaming, is officially back on the PS Store. It kind of feels like that Spongebob meme - you know, that one and only meme from Spongebob - where some guy finds Patrick’s wallet, only Patrick insists it’s not his. Well, Patrick is CDPR , the driving license is Cyberpunk 2077 Strategy|https://Cyberpunk2077pedia.com/ 2077 , the wallet is a standard PS4, and that blue guy is all of us. Aren’t memes even funnier when someone describes them badly instead of using a meme generator site? What’s that? No?! Well, screw you pal. The point is Cyberpunk 2077 is once more available on PS4 , except it’s not rea
CD Projekt Red had made the rather unrealistic announcement that they wanted to get free DLC content in the hands of players within the first quarter of 2021, but clearly that's not happening. It isn't known when players can expect their first DLC package to come out, but it's looking like Q3 of 2021, or even la
Cyberpunkdreams is free-to-play, but there is an optional in-game transactional component. Everything you do in the game requires an Action. You have 40 Actions available to you, and gain one new Action every ten minutes. Obviously, the faster and longer you play, the quicker your Actions will get used up. Once you reach zero, you’ll need to wait for your Actions to build back up, or you can buy Credits using real-world money to expedite the process. Credits can also be used to buy locked content, should you come across it while playing. Credits are definitely optional, though. I was provided 1,000 Credits for review purposes, but in my weeks of playing, I’ve only used 170 Credits. I really only used them during my longer play sessions that lasted upwards of two to four hours. I actually like the Actions system, since when I run out of them, I take that as my indicator to pull myself away from the game’s cyberpunk world and re-enter real life. There’s no question that I could play Cyberpunkdreams for hours on end, so that "forced" break is apprecia
Padre, aka Sebastian Ibarra, and Dakota Smith are also fixers with conflicts of interest. Padre is a priest in Heywood and supposed head of the Valentinos, but like Wakako, he sends V on tasks to steal from or kill members of the Valentinos. While this would justify why the Valentinos are violent towards V, it also conflicts with the idea that the Valentinos should have V’s back, since Jackie was a part of the gang. Dakota Smith, on the other hand, seems to give V gigs that put her up against the Aldecaldos' rival nomad gang, the Wraiths. While Dakota’s database information says she's part of the Northern Californian Pomo tribe, she is seen accompanying the Aldecaldos if players decide to get their help to storm Aras
