Neat detail in “Run this Town”: Jago was born as “Jagoda” (a Slavic girl’s name), implying he’s trans

    Nice to see that sadistic military dictators in 2077 are inclusive of trans people.

    Just like Claire I didn’t notice until I was told, gender changing tech truly has evolved exceedingly

    not the trans man representation i expected… but the representation im 100% certain my trans man friends would be stoked about lmfao

    The voice and appearance already gave it away imo

    Literally anyone could be Trans in Night City.

    lol. Jagoda was a Soviet KGB head during the Great terror in Soviet Union.

    I am Romanian, as soon as I met him I almost immediately wanted to tell him about Transylvanian history in broken hungarian 😀

    He was the only one who might’ve suspected something about Songbird

  8. Ahhhhh nice catch! I did wonder about his voice. Stuck out a bit.

  9. Huh … I just thought Jaco looked a lil werid and dismissed it ..

    So thats what it was, i think i heard a dick joke from either Aguilar or Benett

  11. Jagoda/ягода — means “berry” in Polish, Ukrainian, russian, Belurasian, and, I believe, a few other Slavic languages.

    You can also find Jago during the very beginning of Phantom Liberty. When you first arrive at stadium gate he is out there checking the trucks in the street to the left.

    Mr Hands was also at petrochem, hmm interesting

    I figured the character might be trans, but it’s interesting that you can actually pick up that detail in the quest, I sure didn’t.

  15. I thought this was obvious from the voice, but I never caught the text detail. Kept looking for confirmation.

    Love me some awful queers, there’s simply not enough representation of the absolute worst of our community

    Well, he sounds and looks feminine, so it’s easy to guess that he’s a trans guy

    My dude, it is painfully obvious Jago is trans. I was actually kinda underwhelmed at how obvious it was. You’d think a society with all this tech and cyberware would be able to transition people a lot better.

    I gotta imagine in the world that cyberpunk takes place in that no one cares at all what sex you were born with, when people can literally put their brains/digital conscience into like war machines i dont think anyone cares anymore be whoever you wanna be
