      Bro this game is a hard hitter for sure. Its an extremely believable near future. This is what happens when people actually work; they make amazing things. They understood the topics and human depravity as well as geo-politics in the plot pretty dang well. They understood almost everything from the darkest from all walks of life and applied it properly in this story. This is a good game.

    The scariest thing is that jackies words actually have some semblance to what you’re saying. Its like they couldnt recover him completely, but hes trying to speak to you as much as he can with limited speech. He hears us… but he cant even respond. When he says “afterlife, cya there” he prolly wants to say: im dead already, and you’re dying too. So when you die, ill cya in the afterlife

      It’s like ChatGPT where it’s not actually thinking, it’s just generating text based on what seems appropriate, Jackie doesn’t seem to know he’s dead or an engram, although that’s possibly a side effect of them wanting information from him, they didn’t take the time to make a proper engram

      @TheFinagle ปีที่แล้ว +21

      @@justadummy8076 For what we see of Jacky that's probably a really good analogy to an engram. Jack would be a ChatGPT system running on what few memories could be recovered. Being dead, much was lost. (Small dataset = a lot of "I don't know so here's a random guess"). Johnny being alive allowed then to record all or at least most of his memories to give the system more to work with.
      Johnny also had the advantage of piggybacking on a meat brain (yours) so its much closer to being *alive* than engrams running off the server would get.

      If you follow a certain theory it gets worse. That it's so incomplete it's not even "Jackie" responding to V, but Hanako just puppeteering him for you. She listen's to your response, plugs a word in to match the tone of the response, eyes glow up blue for the playback of a memory that might ... fit ... however loosely. Watch her eyes in the cutscene, they only light up when "Jackie" says something.

      @@SunbatOW sense I made that comment the more I believe that’s what’s happening here of all the engrams we know we’re turned into engrams when they were alive only dying after having there mind downloaded,Jackie’s engram is the only one to not speak and act alive everything he says and does is something he already has done and it’s not like the corp went through all of the cameras around night city to get this stuff and Jackie definitely wasn’t brain dancing his whole life. But he’s in there his consciousness is in the engram so the only way he could be like this is the fact that he died before his mind was downloaded, and even when your dead your brain will still fire neurons for a period of time that means when the corp got to him they downloaded the last remaining firing neurons in Jackie’s brain saving his consciousness but due to only saving a part of him he can’t communicate properly and can only use what those neurons held which is things he’s already said done. We all know the how some people who have been near death or dead for a short period of time see there lives flash before them, that’s what scientists think those last firing neurons are and that’s what the corps downloaded so that’s the only way he can communicate.

    The only one of these I did was send Jackie's body to Vik's, because in my head I imagined the other scenario playing out as Mama Welles walking up to a cab that pulled up at her house and finding Jackie's dead bullet-ridden body in the back, and her just having a mental breakdown.
    It made much more sense to me to deliver the body to Vik's because he's a tough old bird and would understand what happened and take care of the body until it could be claimed in a more civil scenario, like if V told her himself and they went to get the body together. The worst part is that I felt justified in this decision when I learned that Arasaka raided Vik's for the body, becuase then I thought that if I sent the body to her, they would have just done the same thing to a grieving mother, but nope, instead you just get a very touching series of side-quests instead that help flesh out the secondary characters.....and I'm only now finding this out after 4 playthroughs....

      Yeah, it’s such a reasonable choice to make, it feels like, but then the consequence is basically a dead-on-arrival “they stole the body.” When the other choice gives you a whole side quest where you get to deal with the emotions of everything with family.

Now, thanks to V, you're also nearly there figuring out how to put those engrams back in bodies WITHOUT it failing more or less spectacularly. Furthermore, clone technology IS a thing in 2077. Maybe not advanced enough, yet, but it sure will be in the future, to create an entire human being (iirc, in the tabletop, Biotechnica or some other corpo already had got to that point back in the early 2000s but those clones were so riddled with cancers they only lived a very short, very painful life.).
      So you got a way to capture youre enemies' souls, basically. You got a way to clone your enemies' bodies. If you now only found a way to alter your enemies' souls/engrams in a way so they're not your enemies anymore. Change their memories. Sure, it can be done but can it be done in a way that the engram/soul doesn't even notice it's been altered? What do you do to figure out how to achieve this? Right. You take some of those "junk" engrams you're keeping just in case and use them to practice. Like, for example, the engram of a certain Johnny Silverhand (because, let's face it, though Arasaka was a big thing for him, he never was a big thing for Arasaka - more like an annoying fly to be swatted away). If you, for example, can make him remember his own death wrong, an event that surely ought to be inalterably engraved in his memory ... well, if you can do that, you can do anything.
      And there you are, suddenly Johnny remembers all kinds of things completely wrong.

    Something about Jackie's Engram is so hopeful. . . It's a little eerie the way he replays voice lines from Jackie in act1, but you can tell there's something there that's more than just. . . Dead neurons firing as they remember they should, data encapsulated from a lost soul.
    That last line, "See you at the Afterlife," was too apt a choice. Jackie gives us a dozen goodbyes throughout the game, but that's the one he gives you right before the heist, right at the happiest most excited he is in the whole time we see him, and likewise, there's something that's so absolutely true about it as well, he's not just saying that he'll "see us later,"
    It feels very much to me like this last conversation meant something to Jackie too, like he really was saying to us, "I'll see you again on the other side soon Amigo, shame we ended up here, but here we are together; let me escort you there?"

    If you reset, you’ll get to have a short chat between Delamain and V every time you summon your personal cab from the vehicle menu.

    You have a choice between killing Delamain or his 'kids' which he does not love. But I remembered that Delamain hired me and Delamain saved my life when I called for him when I was dying so for me, Delamain was more important than his broken 'kids'.

    For the River quest, if you don't have a high enough Intelligence so you can't hack the laptop then a good way around this is to have already been to Edgewood farm. V will say something about having been there already.

      @yhng_drilla8439 I know, right! There are so many alternative ways of doing things.
      I did have a chart of the optimal abilities to have to open up certain paths in quests. For instance, you needed 12 in intelligence to merge Delamain's core together or a certain reflex points to open certain dialogue options.
      But the 2.0 patch messed all that up. There are still hidden items locked behind attribute gates that have remained the same, but you now need 20 intelligence to merge Dels cores.
      They need to work on balancing it all back out because somethings just don't make sense.

    I think doing the Us Cracks mission and letting the member suffer the consequences is one of the shittier things to do in the game as well.
    Not helping Panam take out Nash locks you out of one of if not the best iconic gun in the game.
    Returning Skippy is also one of the worst decisions if you have become attached at all.
    Not punching Fingers, f' the missed out cyberware, if you don't punch him you are either a pansy or a sick person.

    I sent Jackie's body to Vik's because no mother should see her child all bloody and riddled with bullets like that. Figured Vik would dress his body and make it more presentable, slowly break the news to Mama Welles.

    My favorite cursed decision happens during the 2nd Sandra Dorsett mission. You'd think it would be cracking her data-drive and then trying to black-mail her, but it's so much better.
    We crack her data drive, then knock on the door and pretend to be her friend. We openly admit that we took a peak at her drive and go so far as to congratulate her for sticking it to Nightcorp. Right as V pays her that compliment, you upload Blackwall Gateway into her system and watch as she screams in agony while her eyes burn out of her skull.

    I certainly made some of these bad decisions...sending Jackie's body to Vik the primary one. A few of them I did purely to see what happens, realizing they were probably just a bad outcome. One that had me going for a while was ratting out Panam to Saul in the Little Help From My Friends job. Although it obviously enrages Panam [some _really_ savage calls and texts] the messages from Saul and Mitch suggested that I was still in the good graces of the other Aldecaldos. This proved to be incorrect as I was locked out of the Star ending after all.

    You should have included punching Fingers. Unless you bought the QianT Mk.4 Sandevistan off him before the mission you can opt to punch him, you're no longer able to buy his goods or services.
    The QianT Mk.4 is possibly the best Sandevistan in the game, with a cool-down of just 15 seconds which can be reduced to just 2 seconds with some legendary mods ("heat sinks"). So if you want to do a David Martinez build, don't punch Fingers. (Or, get that Sandy prior to punching him!)

      Its good sandevistan for mele builds, and you have to max tech abilities to use max potential of this. So, there are many better options if you dont have this specific build

    The thing about making the choice to become an Arasaka ngram is that I could see that being the setup for Cyberpunk's sequel. The tables turned and V as the digital conscience taking over someone else's mind.
