Anyone else wish they could send this guy to Regina Jones instead of killing him or him killing himself in the mission “backs against the wall”

    I don’t even talk to him anymore, I just walk in and attack, leave him unconscious but alive. Better than hearing that “pop” on the way out.

    On this subject — I didn’t even realize at first that when Regina told me to incapacitate cyber psychos she literally meant it. I did the first several jobs basically just mauling and obliterating everyone. Then I realized I got more XP and eddies if I used non-lethal force. 🤣 🤷‍♂️ Oh well.

    Relatedly, I wish the game would recognize that the mox cyber psycho in that one gig is unconscious, not dead.

    I downed him without killing him (like he was breathing on the floor) and it still counted as killing him I was pissed.

    Cyberpunk doesn’t allow for happy endings

    So many situations like this. Another example, el captains mission to get the medical truck. I stopped and hack killed everyone attacking the cop. Didn’t hit anything, never even got shot once….still get the angry “you caused supplies and equipment to get damaged because it….sat at the docks?” Messages….it was so dumb, no only did it not care about my super stealth with the mandatory alarm, it also treats it as if I got damaged.

    Can’t save them all

    I grab the meds and run out of the building. Dude doesn’t follow.

    This mission made me stop and think. I did everything I could to be helpful. Talked him down, thought we would be OK and I could get him more help. Left the room to start walking away, and then the gunshot.

    I just stood in the stairwell for a minute. They did a phenomenal job scripting this.

    I’ve heard that if you use a Sandy, you can slip past him without aggroing him

    Y-you do know it is possible, right?

    I never killed him, he didn’t seem like a suicide watch case at the time.

    Yeah, I wish the game was more flexible in things, there are plenty of Cyberpsychos I wish I could call Regina on for help with.

    Of course I wish we knew a little bit more on what happens with them afterward too: Are we being hoodwinked (both of us or just V) into being recruiters for MaxTac? Is NightCorp or Mr. Blue Eyes involved?

    It hit hard when I went back in saw he committed suicide

    I didn’t know he kills himself tbh, i dealth with him the same way I deal with an unstable person on my current playthrough – mixed cocktail of sonic shock and memory wioe, then grab em from behind.

    Left him out cold on the floor and I’ve never actually done this gig before so i’m glad I handled it that way lmao

    I just defeat him with using system collapse to incapacitate him

    I actually incapacitated him during a playthrough (pax mod) and tried calling Regina hoping to unlock secret dialogue or a side quest or something, and nothing happened. Was a bit of a disappointment from a game that regularly rewards unorthodox approaches to playing the game.

    Same with Occupational Hazard. But since Regina supposedly sends help for the Mox lady at the computer in the office section, I hope she sends someone to help the cyberpsycho, too, and we just don’t hear about it.

    Couldn’t you just knock him out with quickhacks?

  19. turbo90d

    I do the blind hack steal the meds and run. Only way to keep him alive I found

  20. Samantha_Aran

    Sandevistan, run in, grab the meds, run out. Scripted sequence never starts, it’s like you were never there

  21. Mother_Nectarine_474

    I fight him, stun him, and pretend that’s what happened

  22. Kalenthraz

    The sad reality is that some people are beyond help, and he had already made his mind up 🙁

  23. Dizzy-Muscle-3418

    wasnt there a way for him to stay alive?

  24. rweston10

    Normally I talk him down and he kills himself, but in my last playthrough, I just knocked him out then left. Sure, the game acts as if I killed him, but he was still moving around on the ground when I left so… _(×_×)_/
