I sure hope so. I want to just live in Night City and be a Merc, in a big way the story kinda gets in the way of enjoying the overall game. Don’t get me wrong it’s good, but… I dunno. I feel like a more open ended game would have been better, given the setting.

Welp… I think i’ve seen this movie before…..

Oh no, they are doing it again.. When will you learn CDPR.

Would be nice if they simplified the controls for console. There’s a million options and the key value pairs are confusing and or unclear. Despite being a few years after its release it feels like a shitty port. For example, go from playing MW or Battlefield and the controls scheme feels like trash, like it was literally only designed for a mouse and keyboard, which it was – that’s my point.
Maybe I’m asking too much or have unrealistic expectations. 🤷♂️

And bombshell is Life paths being Devil\Temperance\Sun\Star.
But as always guys if you want to enjoy any game on release DO NOT LISTEN TO MARKETING, do not fantasy about how perfect game would be.
Lock yourself down from excessive info and you will enjoy the game.

MAY have or may not have. I wouldn’t believe CPDR anymore
Sabbathius
Yeah, friendly reminder – they made a lot of grandiose claims in years and months leading up to Cyberpunk 2077 launch. I’ll believe it when I see it.
WinnerKooky2160
Please let the dev finish the entire game before release this time
Over-Palpitation-360
always wanted the life path to be a whole new storyline instead of only the intro, i want each lifepath introduced diff character in the story, this lifepath we friend with this guy the other lifepath we were enemy and seeing the difference side of others, they better learn their lesson and took their time for the second entry
I_vote_for_evil
Eh, so similar to Cyberpunk 2077?
Anyway, I don’t expect anything complex. Even Dragon Age: Origins (probably the best example of game with different starting points) didn’t do much with its… origins beyond first hour of gameplay.

This game is likely a decade away. Hype train shouldn’t even be leaving the station yet
papishpish
I don’t really care about that tbh, I just want my actions and choices to have consequences that matter in the game
Czechboy_david
Still cant imagine a Cyberpunk game without Silverhand buddy-cop.

Cyberpunk 2 may have branching storylines based on players starting life path
zauber_monger
A dev from I forget which studio was talking about the cajones of the Baldur’s Gate 3 team to create so many story paths that a casual player will never even see. My guess is, CDPR take stuff like that as a bit of a dare/are competitive about their place as Class A storytellers in the medium. I would not be surprised if it’s too late to add this kind of stuff to whatever the next Witcher is, but that they’ve taken enough notes to add such things to whatever the next Cyberpunk is.

I really think they had planned the life paths to be connected to the endings that you were able to choose. For example corpo would default to the devil ending variant. Nomas to the star and street kid to the reaper ending. Which would mean Corpo v would follow takamura story line, Nomad with the nomads and street kid with Judy and joytoys story line. But then they realized shit the main story is actually really short. So they had you do all 3 main quests and then choose your ending. But then the problem was that the life paths meant nothing.
I mean think about it, corpo V would never go against arasaka knowing that they can ruin his life in 15 min. Nomad is not tied to night city so V goes full circle here, comes in alone and abandoned by his family, then leaves with a new family. Street kid V either leaves it to Johnny or commits suicide. V is way over his head here.
I’m not holding my breath to new life paths in the new game. A couple of lines of dialogue that are completely optional is not a good way to implement a life path. I want decisions to change and options to be locked depending on life path chosen.

This is a rumor, they haven’t promised ANYTHING. You guys need to stop believing everything the internet says.
Unlimitles
I think a life path should feel like you started a guild in Elder Scrolls…..
Good-Movie-1599
Tbf we’re acting like this is impossible, when New Vegas basically did this more than a decade ago. It’s not unreasonable. But it is CDPR so who knows
deepfakefuccboi
This game is probably not going to launch until mid-late next gen right? They’re working on Witcher 4 already and just finished 2077’s timeline.
Just hope they don’t make the same mistakes as last time.
jl_theprofessor
Hanging on reddit has made me realize how people get so tremendously disappointed in things. This game’s what, like years and years away from release, right? At this point it’s mostly just a bunch of ideas? And yet people are already posting about something said on a podcast. Letting ideas and sales pitches sit in your head for multiple years? Couldn’t be me.
Nemisis_007
I’m happy they said “may” instead of guaranteeing it. They’ve clearly learned from their mistakes.
rapeerap
This is what they said that CP 1 will be. Fool me once and all that.

TheLoomingMoon
Just take as much time as needed and release it when it’s ready. Fuck the investors.

Jack1The1Ripper
I think it might be possible for them to deliver on their promises this time
Cyberpunk 2077 was made on their own engine that made Witcher 1-3 , And CDPR had only made 3 games prior to cyberpunk , nobody played the first one , some played the 2nd and we all know how popular their 3rd one was , And then they went from a medieval fantasy RPG(Somewhat RPG) to a cyberpunk themed RPG , First game they even had vehicles compared that to rockstar who has been making GTA for the past 20 years
But my point is i think this time using the unreal engine they can make these big promises since they don’t need to develop and engine to make the game , Unreal engine 5 looks dmn impressive and it even has face creator in it , So they might be able to pull this one
Still tho , Never pre order its always a bad choice

CDPR, I love you guys, I’d rather you don’t over promise stuff all over again, for all of our sakes.
What might be too ambitious would be to start off by selecting what ending you chose, and how it affects characters and their appearances.
RTX3090TI
Don’t even start CDPR
joeluisi
I just want new game plus for 1 dammit lol
doblad
Ah, sweet little lies. I’ll believe that when I see it…
FreezyKnight
Whatever they say about cyberpunk 2. It is a lie till they put it in the fully released game.
miohmeg
They really doing a second one? Kinda distasteful tbh
Jibatsuko
They did it fine in Witcher 2 (Iorveth and Roche paths), so I think it’s very much possible having an unique act 1 or 2 based on the initial choices.
MatFernandes
Tell me those sweet little lies

You figure they’d learn their lesson of over promising

Devs: so we were not happy about our previous game’s life path.
IGN: CDPR CONFIRMS LIFEPATHS MATTER IN NEXT GAME . ITS GOING TO BE A TRUE RPG. YIPPEE!!!
