Jokes aside he probably was the best character in the game, It’s a shame he taken from us too early 😞 I would pay full price to actually play those montage cutscenes that shows 6 month with him.
Imo the comment is actually very accurate. That’s exactly what the devs made Jackie sound like, an absolute caricature.

This choom had a rotten life in a rotten town and he still looked for beauty, joy and love in every moment.
Dying like a legend? Pfft. Death’s just the final flourish. **Live** like a legend, V. That’s how they’ll remember you.

It’s such an annoying stereotype in media when the Hispanic character says random Spanish words in the middle of a sentence that is otherwise all English. Nobody talks like that ever. And they only do it with Spanish characters, not like Takemura randomly says words in Japanese

It’s so funny that the only 2 opinions I’ve ever seen about Jackie are “I love him, he was taken from us too soon I wish we had a 100 hour prologue with him” or “yea I never really gave a fuck about him”

If the meme is irrelevant to your post, why didn’t you just use a different picture…?

I’ve worked with a ton of people who throw random Spanish words in with their English to fuck with people who don’t speak it.

Potentially hot take, but I don’t think Jackie even sniffs the top 15 of all the characters in Cyberpunk 2077, despite 3 playthroughs I can’t ever seem to have any type of emotional connection to Jackie like I can with many of the other characters in game

And I honestly love Jackie for it.

I liked Jackie a lot but i don’t feel like we got enough from their relationship.

How does a Polish game studio write a game for characters from around the world? Serious question
TheExposutionDump
Yeah, but like, he’s not the only Hispanic character in Night City that you interact with and befriend. Honestly, the way Jackie acts and speaks makes complete sense for his character.

He’s sick

Would be weird. The entire cyberpunk playthrough takes like, what, a month of ingame time, maybe two? Now imagine doing 6 months with no progression, just to justify you having 0 cyberware and only a pistol to your name until the Sandra Dorset job 😛

i like him because he seems like just a real dude. he has character flaws and can be annoying but he can also be charming and likeable most of the time. it feels like youre dealing with a real dude, but i think we got just the right amount of time with him or he wouldve gotten old fast

Does his ex-girlfriend Camila ever show up in the game?
…And I’ve met and known plenty of Mexican, Central, and South American 1st and 2nd+ generation immigrants that talk in the same, and even more exaggerated, Spanglish as our choombata Jackie.

Nah, didn’t like him at all, I just speed through the start to get rid of him

I have several Hispanic immigrant friends, and literally all of them talk like this. They just forget English words and will just adlib the Spanish or Portuguese translation into it and expect everyone else to figure it out
