I think V and Jackie were both just shocked by what they suddenly saw. It’s one of those things that’s easy to say you should have done, but in the heat of the moment, it’s also easy to just be stunned and witness what’s happening without a mind for doing something tactical and advantageous.

Did either have the ability to record?

They should’ve made a bd of it tbh

They kinda forgot

Those new Kiroshis don’t have a scrolling mode. They needed better cyberware options that the Basics didn’t come with.
HisDivineOrder
They tried, but the porn collection was massive and there wasn’t much room left. They tried deleting all the Jacky porn, but they couldn’t decide what was expendable and what was essential.
And then it was over.

I don’t really think that was the first thing on V’s mind lol

It doesn’t matter. The Arasaka board already know whatever happened, or at least suspect it. It’s not about the truth, it’s about how you can benefit from the situation. Nobody cares *how* the old man died, rather they care that he is dead and how to proceed forward.

His Kiroshis don’t record and Jackie likely didn’t have the right implants if he had an outdated para-line. T Bug might have been able to recover something from security feeds or logs if she hadn’t been scorched.
I mean, does V really need a video as a proof? He already got an undeniable proof in his head that he was there.

Your V didn’t have a rec implant. And no camera with him.

Recording your heist on arasaka? Not the brightest idea
Wiert_Pursonalety
Let’s say V recorded this, what would it have changed? Most believed V anyway and Arasaka knew it from the beginning.

In the tabletop lore, a recording unit and storage device are separate options that can come with a cybereye. The Kiroshi model that V got from Vic didn’t come with one. (that kind of setup is something a media would wear, not a standard solo)

Unrelated but I love CDPRs character design for side characters. I could totally see a multi season show or even movie starring Oda and Takemura and I would eat that shit up by cool factor alone.

3 viable reasons.
V doesn’t have recording implants. V never scrolls anything, so it’s a safe assumption he/she doesn’t have that cyberware.
V didn’t know Yori was about to kill Saburo and was in shock at the entire situation. His/her first thought wouldn’t have been “I’d better start recording incase something happens I’ll get framed for which could give me leverage in removing this chip from my skull when I have no plans to put it in in the first place and before I learn the concequences of doing that.”
Recording would be evidence that V and Jackie were stealing from Arasaka. Maybe not the best call to record yourself mid heist against an insanley powerful and murderous megacorp.

They were stealing the relic – a worse crime than murder.

For what the game tells it seems that the common eye implants can’t record thing or take photos. You need a BD recording implant.
HaxTheChosenOne
Or they could of saved the old man to activate the samurai honour clause bullshit
roselandmonkey
V should have made a BD of this event … my guess is getting shot in the head must have corrupted the recording.
Vastlymoist666
If V’s background was a media then hell ya the recorder would be on all the time. Since V is a solo they don’t have the recorder implant. Nor thought about getting one

Know who’s stupid? Saburo. He’s supposed to be the emperor and he gets zeroed by choking.

Post truth and ai generative images, you can’t trust any recording or braindance.

pat bev got a technical foul for this so maybe V was trying to avoid that

Check your cyberwear tab, is there a BD scroller?
soddoboi
Pretty sure arasaka was quite aware of the situation
ivlivscaesar213
V’s a lazy idiot. His iCloud storage was full.
ponce_delorean
I mean.. in the anime, they say that all military grade implants have a BD scroller, and if you’re anything like me and wipe out all of watsons gigs and stuff prior to the heist, you likely got some military grade implants by that time. Idk if it’s possible to get that recording while the person is alive/still has the implant tho
JonnyPerk
What would you even do with such a recording? Leak it? Take it to the police? A Corp? I doubt that there is any way to get anything out of it, except maybe a bunch of Arasaka assassin trying to flatline you.
