"Here lies Johnny Silverhand, the man who saved my life."
Best line in the game? Maybe
I thought writing "a night city legend" would honor him more than saying that, which cost me a secret ending :(
@@kayaritvards9200 wait what
@@fughkour1793 Sorry for spoilers mate, if you wanna do the secret ending, you have to choose the line that says Johnny saved V's life.
@@kayaritvards9200 god damn it. Chose night city legend. Well guess I’ll choose that and go for the secret ending on my next play through
Johnny: "Most people I thought were my friends, they couldn't even stand to be in the same room with me. You're fuckin' closest to me by a long shot. There 24/7."
And yet, you don't seem to hate my living guts
That line hits like a fucking truck, the whole scene had my eyes watering.
@@TheMetpower and then there's "Just promise me one thing, asshole. You won't forget me." What a journey.
really gets you thinking on where we stand with our own friends.
@@SlowWalkthroughs at least until now it seems..
Johnny needs a hug.
Dude did kill almost a million people with his nuke.

You can hate CDPR's execs, but you can't ignore all the passion and art that was stuffed into this game.
Yeah sadly imo we will never get the promised game. There is more then bugs or glitches, i do not blame the devs for it tho the head staff is responsible for all of this.
@@rust_28 I think if they added everything they promised to add, to nothing it wouldn't change too much in reviews , but the game is still great
@@rust_28 it seems to me that the game is mostly just missing polish, which is a thing that can be fixed over time with updates
only question is weather they will or not
@@SaberScorpion I wouldn't overlook the crunch that happened at CDPR. It is a real problem that plagues the industry.
Why "hate the execs"? you think "execs" are the only problem? buddy when a game fails like this its not one person, or just "the higher ups" (no one uses the word higher up unless youre a twitter teenager) you know, thats just lazy finger pointing to a complex structure you dont know. You clearly never worked in a big company (or simply worked) ever before, the failures of the game go from top to bottom. Many teams did their job well, which teams didnt communicate and do well, which directors failed their devs, which devs failed their directors, how much is unfortunate accident? "the execs" is just the low iq response, please.
7:36
''Guess I meant, I dunno... a happier ending... for everyone involved.''
''Here, for folks like us? Wrong city, wrong people.''
Yeah that last line by Johnny sums up why we have these different endings, none of which are peachy but that is the point of these Night City tales!
@@dedbit6723 a cautionary tale.
@@dedbit6723 and that's why i think this game has a good story and accurate to CP lore. I don't understand the others who bitch about it being bad.
When does he say this?
@@tlegendz1488 in mikoshi
"What did you expect? A headstone, flag and flowers?"
"Nah, I ....I dunno. A marker. Something. Anything."
This dialogue also made me think of something else V says, to the doll at clouds if you continue to converse with them: "I just want the world to know I was here. That I mattered."
So much is focused on this need to be remembered and I felt it was kind of vain and egotistical, but as I played through the game and became more immersed in the world, my perspective changed. I never really thought about how I wanted to be remembered when I go or if it even mattered to me especially. It's given me this whole new outlook on all kinds of things.
It's kind of surreal that a videogame would have that kind of impact on me.
I've been struggling with justifying this feeling too. I used to repress it because I thought it was a vanity thing. But actually when you look at the backdrop of the city, the setting, I think this view somehow begins to take shape as the ultimate proof of life. This city, this world only seems to recognize and validate forms of Power whether it's cash flow, military tech, or knowing how the systems work. If you don't have these things you get stomped out. And you see abandoned shit and PEOPLE all over this game how it's a STRUGGLE to just keep up. You see that with Jackie in particular. And I think V carries on the soul of Jackie in that regard.
It's that when you have no time left to live then you would always try to do something that was somthing you wnated to achieve but never could've
@Potato King arasaka ending start feeling bad the second Jhonny started complaining ..... But things we didn't took for account was how much Jhonny had change and still we didn't trust him so truly the worse ending ever in a game
The epiphany you had was likely as ancient as it was important: the more things change, the more they stay the same. Since the beginning, mankind has always wanted to leave a mark, whether through an advancing bloodline, or a track of land, or an empire. This doesn’t change, no matter how far we stretch into the future. We’ll always want to be remembered for greatness, and in NC, the only way to achieve that is to become a legend and snuff it.
Wanting to be remembered is a way people try to achieve immortality, even if it is shallow. Even if you die, the idea that you are remembered and your actions will have consequences that will far outlast you give people some sense of meaning in their lives. That they won't be truly dead and that their lives mattered.
Either through tales of afterlives or through the pursuit of legacy, so much of human History can be defined by humanity coping with the idea of death.
Johnny: Out of all the heads I could've popped out of, hella glad it was yours.
"... See, V ? Stayin' with you wether you like it or not."
"Goodbye V. And never stop fightin'."
I'm not crying...
I am
@@SlowWalkthroughs Can't we all just cry and sob together?
me too! just finished my game. I just love it!
So deep. This game is strangely comforting to me. It reminds me that life is tragic, but that ok.
I like the symbolism of the location in this scene. The oil is literally a result of the decomposition of millions of corpses that lasted million years. The black substance is like a void where different dead creatures turn to drops of the one black ocean. The fact that Johny doesn't even know where exactly his body is buried perfectly emphasizes this dissolving into death and nothingness.
Даже не замечал этого
your comment literally fucked me up, братан. аж до мурашек
>oil is literally a result of the decomposition of millions of corpses
lol
bruhhhhhhhh
@@khabibnurmagomedov4877 Hes... not wrong? I dont see whats lol-worthy
Poor Johnny. Imagine yourself in his place, you come back after death after 50 years, and you are in someone's head, like a digital projection, and you find yourself lying in the trash.
That feeling suck.
мне достаточно того, что при жизни я живу в мусоре под названием Россия, и осознания того что в этой куче мусора менталитета и исковерканных ценностей жизни меня тут и похоронят
After everything he did, all his hardwork and he was just tossed into middle of nowhere
Arasaka literally dumped his body in the trash site under 7 layers of concrete, without any dignity...
Rache Bartmoss was inside a refrigerator in the middle of a landfill, literally the man who destroyed the net. This lore is deep as hell.
@Macabre Giraffe Yeah, that's right. Arasaka just used him like some kind of property, just used him for her own purposes, and then threw him in the trash as a waste resource. This moment about Johnny is very strong, here you understand how miserable he was in his life. The corporation took everything from him, his happiness, his girlfriend, his life and even his body, corporation even deprived him of the opportunity to die normally and be buried properly, and yes, as you said, Arasaka took away from him even the memory of his existence, really the worst thing that can happen to a person, when he is simply erased from this world. Nothing was left of him, everything that can be taken away from a person was taken away from him.
It was really hard to listen their dialogue.
Johnny: And Is that all?
V: And what did you want?
Johnny: Well, i don’t know, maybe flags, plates, at least just an inscription with my name.
V: Okay let's fix it, see "Here lies Johnny Silverhand"
Psychologically this is very hard to imagine...
No one wants to die, no one wants to go into oblivion, no one wants to go into emptiness, everyone wants to live forever, every person in this world wants to leave something after himself so that he will never be forgotten...
It was in this scene when it hit me, when it also hits Johnny, how miserable he was. Nothing is left of him. The music tells you the story.
Same...
"Here lies an amazing game, the one overlooked due to it's flaws."
Totally agree my choom. Except, the game doesn't "lie." It lives! In all of us who know the truth!
Truth 1... this game is hella preem.
Trutg 2... Don't rush to meet Hanako at Embers!
So it's not an amazing game then is it?
Not anymore - as Solomon Reed puts it: "The game´s been fixed!" :)
Why am I not allowed to give this man a hug? Why isn't that an option in this game? Fuck, man
Especially in the end of the game! You're both digital, you put arm on his shoulder, you shake his hand. Why on earth couldn't my V give JS a deep hug?
You cant hug him in open world because he is a hologram in your head. He isnt physically there.
@@vatyunga it's easy to miss though, thank god I was curious enough to walk to him before walking into cyberspace.
@@Altair6306 In the beginning of the game, he could touch you and push so guess it could be possible. Honestly, it doesn't to be a real hug to feel like one, even if you don't physically touch
@@basteque Well, he used your body to push you. Thats why you see their hands mirror each other.
"Good Bye V and Never Stop Fighting"
“I’m just scared for you v”
That fucking got me
The soulkiller and relic project at Arasaka really was a fate worse than death.
Johnny had his conscience torn from his body, stored in a desert called Mikoshi, and left wandering alone for 50 years.
When he awoke, he awoke to a world that had developed completely without his influence, and the only influence he seemed to have had on those that remembered (what little of them remained), was of disgust, regret, anger and nonchalance.
Johnny found himself inside a strangers mind, battling for control before succumbing to the understanding that he had awoken with no control of his actions. He had to watch, unable to interact.
This stranger wanted him killed again.
The man who killed him, thriving through mechanical immortality. The company he fought desperately to topple, still thriving as one of the most powerful mega-corporations in existence.
His name forgotten. His personality despised. No grave. No funeral. No relatives to speak of. No fond memory. The only thing to commemorate his disappearance, a drink that barely anyone orders.
Once Johnny found his new stranger to be a friend, he gave up his chance at a second life, knowing that his time, for as violent and hedonistic as it was, had already been.
All he could do was hope to redeem himself without an audience, without a crowd, and help one young man fulfil a dream that he once had.
Johnny Silverhand, the legend that Night City forgot existed.
A cautionary tale of the price paid for Legendary status, for as long as that last in Night City, another reason why in the end, the only right choices are those that cherish what matters to your humanity, to the most basic need a human being has, that of comradery
Great analysis
The music production for this game is fucking next level. It amplifies every piece of emotion you're supposed to be feeling. Never really played a game that does it as masterfully as Cyberpunk, maybe Mass Effect trilogy but not on the level that Cyberpunk achieves. God damn what a game.
I could not agree with you more! It's just stunning work, maybe unmatched
I didn't get to play Cyberpunk but you should give the Soulsborne series a try, I'd say specially Bloodborne. The music on these games serves different purposes, where the ost for Soulsborne games comprises of tracks made specifically for the bosses or key locations, but none than less they're still groundbreaking on their quality and scope. Shoutout to the Nier series as well
@@ncrranger6327 I agree with all that, I love how story is told through music in the souls game. Nier is amazing too. But theres just something about this game. Try it
Man, just listening to this is making me feel all tingly. What a wonderful, emotional journey this game was.
CDPR
The plot of the story, directing and acting is unusually good. Adult).
lol
@Qimodis Because it's a good soundtrack.
Wished everyone felt that way TwT
This game, to me, is a top tier game. Yes there are bugs and glitches but what game doesn’t have any? The story is super interesting and the music makes everything better. From having a heart felt convo with Johnny or Panam to blowing shit up with the music to back it up. Here’s to hoping for future story DLC.
@Jefferson Lopez the game was just no mans sky all over again,the story isnt bad just poorly protrayed,axios is talking about the story wise wich is fairly good
gameplay wise its bad could be fixed doubt it will,still he can like something about the dumpster fire of cyberpunk i like the music
It's one of the best games of all time
I'm very hopeful that the DLC for CP2077 will let V save themselves now that we have finished the Silverhand storyline.
I waited a bit over a year to get it, bought it on the Christmas sale off steam. I am so glad I didn't let all the negative noise around the release prevent me from doing it. I'm still not a fan of how they released the game, but I couldn't be more happy with the experience I had. Yes, it was buggy at times. There was some really stupid shit that happened, especially with trying to get my vehicles to spawn. But at the end, when that cello song hit...I cried.
Absolutely amazing game. It will certainly be leaving an unforgettable impact on me.
@@toniotrussardi8126 "Poorly portrayed" The story in this game is portrayed fantastically
Despite all the ulterior motives, the corporate politics and the complete violations of humanity, it's oddly satisfying that the relic really did what it was advertised to do - bring peace to the dead and closure to those that loved them.
Only because it was meant for saburo arasaka to become immortan false emprah.
Rather as a coping mechanisms for consumers. Engrams are COPIES of the minds. The sould dies with the body, it was clearly said in the game
@@cyntdestroyer69xd Sure, but who needs a soul in Night City anyway? Saburo clearly doesn't see much of a difference without one, and we don't see much of a difference than him after he takes Yorinobu's body. The engrams themselves as you said, copies of a mind, they aren't rigid or simulated people. They can change, grow, observe, learn, think, just as any other non-engram mind. We can see this in Johnny during the main story. (at the mission this song's from mostly). Without spoiling anything, after certain endings to Phantom Liberty V can have a new convo with Johnny where they talk about the events of the expansion, how they both feel about what went down, and in this convo Johnny opens up almost as much, or maybe even more than the oil fields.
So when rich people are talking to their dead relatives, they are actually talking to them for real, but then they leave Arasaka their loved one is still trapped in Mikoshi, alone, with only a dwindling number of visits to look forward to which will eventually stop as their living family dies off, moves on, or forgets about them. Much worse fate for those engrams tbh, don't know what Alt wants with them but its gotta be better than being Arasaka property
@@TheJuggerClutch Wasn't Alt open about consuming them for her own power? Either literal way, or metaphorical, to make them rogue AI's, and break through Night Corp's barrier.
39:31 - this part made me burst into tears when I finished the campaign for the first time. This game is a true masterpiece, a high quality example of how you should make a story driven game.
yeah man, totally agree
"So that's how it is.... nothing here at all...."
"Better? A bit, but let's say it was my real grave, what would you write? Here lies Johnny Silverhand.."
> "A guy who saved my fucking life"
"V, You don't even know how much I wish for it to be true"
This scene really fucked me up, it made me think a lot about how people would think about me if I died, and how I'd think about others after they went and what they'd think about that. It's the best part of the entire game imo.
You can tell that, a lot of people in the development process are hurt, broken even.
Life stroke me hard recently. Really hit the bottom this time. Dunno how to describe... but yet i know that there are 2 things that keep me from "Walking into the void" how Johnny said once. Cyberpunk that still keeps giving me lessons about life and how to live it better. And the second thing is probably that i'm... just to scared to harm myself so i don't include smthn like suicide in my future. Although... that's pretty much it. Don't got no good soul in my life nor anything to keep living for but a tiny hope for better changes. I also don't know why i'm saying that here. Guess, i've always thought that the cyberpunk community is the most understanding one
heh... same m8, completed it yesterday, after a 3 years brake. And got a couple of new lessons, after the... fall i guess? Hope that you can manage your shit, i know that it's the words that maybe you don't really need actually, but i hope that you're okay or that you'll be okay.
Don’t worry bro I’m going through some shit to I fall back on cyberpunk to bro that I can get away from you just know that there’s always something to live for you just don’t know it yet or haven’t found it yet
This whole year pushed me into complete apathy towards everything. I was basically not much more than a working vegetable by december.
But this game managed to move this emotional clog in me and now I started to feel much better.. actually started to feel.
This fucking video game managed to pull me out from a very dark place and helped me to reevaluate some of my life choices and I'm grateful for it.
And I can thank all the bugs and performance issues for it, because originally I was not even interested in the game. I only tried it out, because of the outrage that surrounded the launch. Wanted to try it out to see how bad it is in reality.
It's so good to hear that you're doing better now. Keep it up, I really do wish you the best!
Never stop fighting, friend. You'll get it
Keep going, friend. I wish you all the best.
the same, but with Portal 2 and Sims 4 ;)
I can understand this.
This game and me rethink my view on life I used to be a very negative person not seeing a point in life but after experiencing this game it made me have many sleepless night just wondering to myself “why am I doing this? Why am I just sitting here behind a computer screen doing nothing with my life?” And it also helped me with my grieving process after my Nan died from breast cancer. And helped me tap into feelings and emotions I haven’t felt in years. Thank you CDPR for making this masterpiece
Edit: sorry for the potential weird writing English is not my first language
Loved every moment of this game, I’ve been listening to music like this and never fade away almost non stop after finishing and it still makes me emotional.
I can't yet listen to "Been Good to Know Ya" without crying
I know :(
Lucy, The Daughter of the Devil :v
а ну говори нормальным языком! иначе я зделаю из тебя паштет! и намажу на утренний бутерброд!
One of my favourite games from the last 10 years...
You must be a very sad person. So do I. Oh, Vi
the fade away riff during part 2 right as we sit damn that part
I went through this game, and there are no words to describe what is in my soul.
For four years of my life, I walked the path, just walked without realizing what I was doing, who I was and what I needed.
Just a confused guy. I realized that these 4 years could not make a choice. I've been fighting with myself and I'm dead tired. I'm so tired that nothing brings me pleasure, love hurts, play (I finished the game a month ago and like this since then) I don't even know what. I just realized that I can't experience some emotions, I keep them in myself, and there is no one to really talk to. I understand that I will drink (brandy or something else) and become different. I will change and do not want to return to the standard state, or I will simply change my ideals in an instant and go to the ends of the world. I sit down and finally rest.
Definitely this game has changed my perception of the world, my me... I don't know who these people are, what V and Johnny prescribed so, but thanks to you, I'm about to wake up from a sleep of many years.
All my life I thought about tomorrow. I don’t want to anymore, I’m tired, and this thought is no longer pleasant to me. This music describes this state very accurately, so much so that it is rather difficult to understand even after writing it.
"Only in the face of death does a person become who he really is. You still have enough time to become someone."
Yes, Johnny, thank you for these words, I will definitely become different.
It's crazy... this game is just so influential. Even reading the comments you can see just how many memorable lines there are from this game and it blows my mind.
Yeah, this feeling when Johnny says you are the closest person to him and he is grateful you don't hate the living guts of him. Man, this was sad
He looks like the sad Keanu meme
It's a weird sensation to have listening back to all these 'moments' from the game. I feel like im remembering a messy break-up, or the loss of a loved one, like a bad memory, but it makes me tingle deep in my chest. You know that hollow feeling, it's sort of bittersweet for some reason.
Someone else said it well, something along the lines of: "If you could offer me the chance to never feel this way again, i don't know if i would accept."
In a nutshell.
And just to add while i'm here, playing through the game a second time is SO DIFFICULT now. There is this constant cloak of dread surrounding all the things i do even early on in the game, knowing where it's heading. Even the badass gunbattles where im a godamn cyber-samurai kicking all amounts of ass, feel so sad and empty. Ach, CDPR y u do dis!? xD
Feeling the same tingle in my chest. A sign that this game is a true work of art, touching my human soul.
That they managed to lace this game of (eerily realistic) violence and dystopia with such unexplainably touching human moments is magnificent. This is what cyberpunk is supposed to be.
@@Musabre Jackie hits in the feels. It's like a superposition of his smiling face and dead body in one.
The feels stick, even month later...
@@Olivia-W I've been trying to work myself up to play it through again because i still think it's a badass action game, but i'm not at all ready yet haha. It's been 6 months.
Part II hits so deep within my heart it bleeds out
I like how in the background of some of the parts never fade away is playing. But man this game makes you go through your emotions and connects with you on another level. Made me feel something that’s hard to describe in words, but it’s special. I’m pumped for the DLC and I wanna return to the game, but I got such a fitting happy end, I can’t bring myself to go back and ruin it.
Jus found out You can ride the rollercoaster in Pacifica with Johnny and it’s so cool seeing the two happy.
Spoiler:
Gonna miss Johnny, seeing him not even fight with me for the body in my end and tellin me to never stop fightin as he sent me back just hit hard. I hope one day I’ll be able to give him a new body and get V more lifetime. But heading off to Arizona with panam and seeing the stars felt different when I started to remember all I did, playing with samurai, Jackie, Saul, and everything else. But it’s good v could get outta night city and away from everything.
This game left me with feels and memories that’ll never fade away and man is it a thing of beauty :)
So beautiful! You just made me fall in love with the game all over again. To me the characters are really what made the world come to life, Johnny and Panam specifically I just fell in love with, their interactions and storylines felt so human. And Johnny's smile on that rollercoaster: purest moment of the whole game!
@@SlowWalkthroughs
Exactly, everytime there was a segment with Johnny or Panam it was so great. Seeing Johnny go from his selfish old self wanting to get V’s body and destroy Arasaka again to a caring friend who wanted the best for V and tk make up with his old friends, realizing the mistakes he made was great. Everything with panam was perfect, she’s such a great character and every mission with her I felt happy to do. The characters were just written so well it’s amazing we got the ones we did and the experience with them. Couldn’t be more satisfied with what we got.
@@SlowWalkthroughs and even other characters too (Kerry, Judy, takemura, viktor, misty). There’s just so many good characters and life in this game. The story,characters, interactions, etc are just made so well.
@@primalspongebob6144 Yes, yes, yes! Every side character, there's even a mission for Sandra who you save in the first mission and I ended up liking her too! I tried to hate Takemura as a corpo-hating streekid but I just kept falling in love with him! Vik, misty, jackie, it feels like every single character is given a moment to shine.
I couldn't agree with you more, I'm so happy with the quests and interactions we got with them all
@@SlowWalkthroughs Gotta love those Takemura accidental selfies ngl.
7:36 daamn, i knew I also heard this in one of the endings
It's too good, I love that bit so much
@@SlowWalkthroughs same, its like a sadder version of never fade away
@@bastiisalive It is! I didn't even realise.. I remember Johnny saying in game that it's his favourite song too
@@SlowWalkthroughs yeah during that house raid of Kerry hahha
@@SlowWalkthroughs I love that this plays when johnny opens up to you at his grave.
"Here lies johnny silverhand"
"The guy who saved my life"
"V.. you dont know how much I want that to be true.."
Let's give him a big hug. We love you, Johnny
Game released half-baked with a lot of cut content and it still blew my fucking mind. What a wonderful journey.
This game is gorgeous, people are ignorant and criticize it for it's bugs and didn't give it a chance.
Mostly those who criticize this game have bad pc’s, or they even play on consoles. This game is perfect...
Bruh , only story and cool stuff doesn't make a great game. They said the game was ready a year ago. This game was average overall.
Fuck what anybody says, the last time i was this engaged into a game was red dead 2. This game beyond the bugs is fucking awesome. Plus, if anybody has played elder scrolls, you learn to love the bugs and laugh at it xD
On another good note, this game is on nexus mods so expect some AAA shit from the mod community
Cyberpunk has it flaws, but it's still amazing.The most people who actually complain are the console players, who are in the majority.That's why you see so much hate.
SPOILER INCOMING:
In the end this game makes you spend hours and hours to keep a single individual alive - just to realize you die anyway. What a bummer. You think you would get to like a parasite as much as to say "yeah, its fine, take my body, was a nice short life i had" if this happened to you? The endings are pointsless 1. Spending time with panam - cool, having people close to her dying on that mission just to die yourself a few months later, not even enough time to build a family with her. 2. Being the king of the Afterlife? Great, you do so for half a year, wealth wont do much beyond that 3. I wont even talk about the opportunity to be cheated by Arasaka. So in the end, the only good think you can do is pass away, give your life to Johnny and by that make the whole journey, the whole plot of this story pointless - it was just to feel less of a grudge to a parasite in your head. Storywriting is utterly terrible. You want a good story? Play Deus Ex, the original from 20 years ago.
7:35 - "The Guy who Saved My Life"
A dead man should never be able to see his legacy. Johnny is like the ghost of regret here, sitting over his long decayed corpse. Makes me think of the soldiers who died in trenches, bodies left somewhere in the mud underneath a poppy field. Wondering if they ever got a marker..
The funny thing is that his body is not there at all, his body is somewhere else outside of Night City, it was written in another story.
When that track played in the background during the dialogue I was caught off guard. Like why is it this beautiful and hitting me so hard. I couldn’t help but cry. Everything Johnny said. I’ve lived it. It felt like I was talking to myself. Seeing that revelation, put me through it all in a flash. “Blind, selfish bastard I was”. We strive to find who we are. And in the process we sometimes forget who we hurt along the way. Hoping what we sacrificed made it easier getting to the destination. Only to realize it could’ve been done better. Smarter. But you’ve reached a point of no turning back. Hoping to one day atone in your success and newfound goals. Live a life surrounded by others you love. It’s the best way to pass peacefully from this world.
I had a similar epiphany roughly a decade before the game was announced. I was selfish, a bully, an awful person. this game, this scene. It made me believe I had turned myself around. a new leaf. like, like there was a reason I even kept myself alive. There was a long period of time, where I felt I deserved to die. I'm glad I'm still here, I'm glad that I don't feel like a knife is on my throat anymore.
Night City is a city of legends, and many of those legends ends with someone buried under piles of debris, alone and forgotten, leaving just lies of what they were and what they did to became a legend.
Tomorrow I will go to my father's funeral. And i dont know what suppose to i do after that. I wish i would sit next to his grave and wait thousands of years while remembering this...
Hey, I know it is a lot too late, but I hope you're doing a bit better!
Stay strong!
Hope you're still fighting.
Hope you're doing alright as of today man
Staahhhpppp 😭 Johnny + V 4ever
This part absolutely broke me. I don't know why, but I was sobbing.
I'm so glad people are starting to recognize the beauty of this game. Sure, there's lots of bugs and things that feel unfinished, but cmon. You had people sending the developers death threats telling them they were gonna get killed if they didn't release the game, how do you think people would react if it was delayed a fourth time?
Anyways, this game is absolutely beautiful. Characters, story, music, it's absolutely stellar. It's a shame there's morons out there who automatically think it's bad just because they saw a compilation of bugs on youtube.
Entirely agree with you! I'm hoping with a little time for fixes and some much needed distance from the hate bandwagon people will give it a shot and see just how beautiful it is
Well, it depends on each scenario. I was lucky enough to be able to play it correctly, a friend of mine had a gun inside an npc's head in a heartbreaking scene, so.... Yeah, that pretty much ruined the inmersion for him enough to stop playing until it gets properly patched.
@@zio9057 I'm so glad that never happened to me, if it had happened on my first playthrough I'd have uninstalled the game and left it for a year. Thankfully nothing major happened, and all the major bugs I saw happened in the open world.
Despite the bugs, I stayed simply for the story and for Johnny Silverhand. I legit felt like i was saying goodbye to a friend.
Also nice pfp, dude
I've just finished the game, now I'm listening to this, closing my eyes and thinking about nothing...
The part 2 is so deep and fucking amazing and it really deppened the conversation with Johnny hella lot. Thx for Sharing i was looking for this exactly after playing the game and shed a tear for johnny after finishing the game.
Agreed, it just heightens the scene so much! Loved this music and Johnny, I'm glad you were able to find this video!
The message and story of cb2077 is one best i've seen in video game so far it deals with
the inevitability of death, meaning of life and fear of being forgotten are some of the subjects covered in the game. You have few ways to deal with the inevitable and all of them come at a price. You can give up on existence and check out early by your own hand, leaving those who knew and cared about you in pain and dealing with a terrible loss. Alternatively you can stand defiant and fight. Whatever for pure survival or meaning of life. You can decide to become an immortal AI, lose your body and who knows, maybe even your soul? You can dismiss the inevitable and become a legend to be remembered for ages to come. You can give in to security offered by a faceless corporation and likely lose a part of yourself in the process. Finally you can (re)join the Nomads and find meaning of life in daily strife, community, belonging and family.
Whatever you decide to do in your real life, choose wisely, there is no re-runs here.
I was one of those band wagon people at the start and I clowned the game for being a buggy mess, but 2 years later my outlook couldnt be more different. This game and all of the storeis it tells within its characters, setpeices, and worldbuilding, make for an unmatched experience. Drawing similarities between this ficticous world and our own really makes this one stand out. The developers of this game really had their heart in it, and it shows.
Good for you, i bet you are an interesting person to have a casual conversation with, good health to you
here we are again
you can go to literally any random ass spot in this game and just look up and see the most stunning ethereal view of your entire fucking life
'Then I realize you're there, always were, and this stupid wave of relief washes over me.'
Completed the game 2 days ago but the thoughts of the ending, this scene and this music just dont leave my mind.
Goodbye, V, never stop fightin'
I think the temperance ending with this music is my favourite, so bittersweet it left me in tears
Does this flag need a Union Jack on it 🇺🇸
@@SlowWalkthroughs IF you get the Temperance ending as your first ending, you pretty much die inside and are left in tears, but after you think about it, it is bittersweet, it was the best way to have Johnny live for a lot more and also V stay immortal as an AI
@@ciprianrobo doesn't V just become a part of Alt though?
I Love Johnny Fucking Silverhand
It’s been like 30 minutes and i’m here reading all the comments and listening to the whole thing bro this is my comfort zone ngl i wish i could escape real life and get in the game world in this scene and place specifically for many reasons, I don’t know I guess it’s johnny’s presence..
This is the place... This atmosphere and the burning floodgates of the oil pipeline... Like burning candles in memory of Johnny
This is was one of the best story arcs in Cyberpunk. Johnny's story was told so well. So emotional. You get to know Johnny Silverhand for who he was. Sure he was mean and abusive, but he was also a caring, loving person. And it shows when you show him kindness. No choices that effect the game? I'll be fucked if the choices I made during this side job didn't effect the game! CDPR knew what they were doing, and I see it with my eyes, and not from what other people were saying. See, I almost gave into it. The hate for Cyberpunk 2077. I even deleted it from my computer, didn't want to see it again. But then one day when I was playing Bladerunner, I was listening to background, and heard the echoing of advertisements, and the distant sound sexual moaning and was thrusted right back into Cyberpunk 2077. Bladerunner is a great game, btw. Anybody that loves Cyberpunk should pick that game up! :D
Seeing Johnny sitting there like this hurts. I think this is the scene, where I realized, how lonely Johnny really is. At the beginning I didn't really like Johnny, just for his attitude and behavior. But through the story I slowly began to realize, how Johnny is actually similar to V and to myself. In the end I didn't just like him, I felt truly connected to him. With this scene as context playing the "Don't Fear The Reaper" - Mission feels just like doing one last honor to Johnny, going right at Arasaka "gun in hand and on fire" ... taking revenge for Alt, the Atlantis-Crew and for Jackie. Great storytelling by CDPR and great soundtracks, perfectly catching all the emotions of the story.
Damn this song is just raw depression. I can't stop listening to this, and that one song kerry plays in his(?) yacht. I cry with Judy everyday. This game is going to be straight cult when it works properly.
Only Johnny Silverhand can sit at his own grave and reflect on the good times.
I'm naturally a cynical person in real life and even this game took it's toll on me. I've never before had game be so emotionally draining and force me to really reflect on everything I experienced in a way that also made me look at my own life through a different lens of scrutiny. I dare call it the pinnacle of storytelling in modern gaming, I'm not sure any other narrative-heavy game I play from now on will ever come close. It's a shame how it launched and how shitty the execs at CDPR were, the people who put the real work into this really put their heart and soul into it.
Agree
Nearly all here in this game was "written before" by Mike Pondsmith. What we see here, everything, even the strange prosthetic limb fetish, is his "heart and soul", his imagination, his version of a distopian future we might soon have to deal with, if not by 2077, then add a hundred years more, maybe.......
i have to make save a game before this dialoge. It's hit me every time. Sooo good story so great game.
"Goodbye V Today was a Good Day" This Scene in Phantom Liberty hits me like a Wreckingball❤❤🤧🤧
7:36
"V....you don't know how much I want that to be true."
MAN the voice acting & the music is this game is just out of this world 🔥
I'm so glad CDPR didn't entirely give up on the game and kept on pushing through the bugs, bad management, and hate to give this game the polish it deserves. If they hadn't, i wouldn't have been able to experience this masterpiece of videogame storytelling and music. Cheers to the teams that made this amazing game possible!
7:36 My first play-through when the game came out I felt many of the emotional scenes didn’t hit the way I feel that they should’ve, maybe because they felt generic. But this part, talking with Johnny in the oil fields, hit differently than any game I played before. I mean the idea of dying and coming to your own resting spot and realizing that you left nothing behind worth remembering because you wasted your life by using the people who actually cared about you for selfish purposes. It’s a more unique idea that this scene did a great job in executing as it hits like a truck.
CDPR may have botched the launch of Cyberpunk, but you can't deny that they have such a special way of making the audience feel emotionally invested and moved. Even in TW3, I couldn't stop thinking about the game for weeks after I finished it.
weeks? i still cannot stop thinking every now and then and im hyped for the remaster. cant wait to play again
It’s been more than a year. I fall asleep to this theme. Every single day. And what keeps me playing it over and over again? Probably the thought about the future. How are we all going to be remembered. Time doesn’t make exceptions for anyone, it consumes everything. I just hope that one day people will remember us after we die, I hope that we all did something for others that they will think of us with a smile on their faces. This game is inspiring. About the time as a big factor. Something that never stops, something that doesn’t wait for anyone. It just takes away everything with time. Kinda ironic, but still. There’s hope for a better future. Thank you CDPR, thank you for such a great game..
The end of something old and a hopeful new beginning of something new.
Don't know...but confronted with a world such as the one in Cyberpunk, I guess even myself in real life would have bombed the shit out of it.
Things might be bleak in real life for alot of people right now, but there is this deep malencholy surrounding the cyberpunk vision of the future that is just really hard to deal with. I honestly hope we as a species somehow avoid such a gloomy end, but, facts are the world this game portrays is SO close to a potential future for us it hits pretty close to home, at least i think so. Add to that the very human characters and the whole thing is just too believable.
I'd wanna bomb the shit out of it too.
@@Musabre I guess there may be a terrorist group in ten years time called Samurai and it's just gonna be filled with people like us.
@@protisteos9778 Pahaha, no, I would need a significant personality change to be capable of violence on that level, but hey, it's not like we don't have that kind of person already. Couple that with advanced utopian technologies exclusive to just the rich and well.... you can imagine the rest im sure.
Johnny saw a system that was going to end in corps controlling the very minds of the citizens. He wasn't prepared to let that happen. I think deep down He s a soldier. Always has been. He just doesn't know when to stop fighting. Had be destroyed Arasaka in its entirely he would have just gone after Militech next. Then the next, and the next and so on. Here he finally realises where the endless war and obsession has gotten him. Nowhere. Saving the whole world was never his responsibly alone.
@@Musabre Maybe that significant personality change will happen once the corporate entities tear down any semblance of normalcy once and for all, hell, I'd need one too.
Cyberpunk literally made me realize a lot of stuff I was in a toxic relationship and well I played Cyberpunk it literally taught that life is still meaningless but it’s worth clinging on to because it’s a thing of beauty taught of suicide when I did the suicide ending it made me think how selfish it would be thinking it’ll only affect me but everyone around me And now I’m starting to change my mindset I wanna be remembered I want people to know I exist from wanting to be forgotten to try new things and wanna be remembered
There's something, someone, outta here waiting for you to be there. Wish you'll find it in time.
Most underrated game of all the time
Keep going. You make high-quality stuff, and it's unique. Recipe for success.
Thank you very much! That's really motivating to hear
7:35 The most sad guitar solo I've ever heard... I feel like it will be hard game experience for me
The never fade away in the background of part 2 is brilliant
This game is a another galaxy
I never felt more for Johnny until this part of the game. Even after he took on Arasaka for Alt’s sake, he saw that he never truly fought for anyone or anything except himself and his own ideals, and now he felt like he was less than the dirt that was trampled on by the foot of corporations. It wasn’t until V try’s to reconcile with his bitter ally, telling him that even if it was intentional or not, he’s grateful towards Johnny Silverhand for saving his life. Johnny probably was on the verge of tears for feeling like he done some good for once.
However, V is still very stern towards Johnny, and reminds him of how he essentially betrayed V by going out of control with his body when he should have simply asked Rogue about Adam Smasher like he said he would. Yet V offers Johnny another chance of reconciliation, and Johnny promises that he will do better by V (at least according to how i went about this mission).The two go from bitter companions to trusted comrades from this point.
I love the chemistry that V and Johnny have with each other. V is a fledgling mercenary with not a lot of experience about the conflicting nature that Night City has. It is up to the player to determine whether they want to trust Johnny or not, but choosing to get to know Silverhand, V sees that Johnny has a lot of what V wants, which is a name that everyone remembers. However, Johnny is also an egotistical manipulator who takes advantage of everyone he meets as well as mock those with good intentions, which causes the two to but heads with each other. However, V fears that he will die without ever leaving his mark on Night City, even more so that his mind will soon degrade to the point where Silverhands construct replaces V’s mind and he will never be able to accomplish what he wants. Johnny sees this and allows V to make his own choices, which I believe is the main reason why V tolerates Johnny so much. They don’t always see I to eye, but they work together regardless and bring their own skills and knowledge to do what is needed to complete the task ahead. V makes the decision’s but Johnny can offer his input and advise when he has to. They’re like yin and yang, one with no practical experience but with a lot of drive, the other carrying more knowledge than the former, but lacks a body.
Quite a hefty paragraph about the relationship between an in-game avatar and a futuristic rocker boy version of Keanu Reeves! But it felt good to give my personal take about it! :)
видимо я одна тут русская... и тоже хочу сказать , каждый раз когда я включаю это видео , не могу сдержать слез... то ли из за любви к этой игре , то ли из за ее конца...
полностью солидарен с тобой... после прослушивания я будто замер в каком-то ментальном кризисе, а в голове только одни вспоминания о прохождении финала игры, где и я уронил слезу...
Прощай Ви, дерись до конца
ты не одинок товарищ
Russian, American, hell it doesn’t matter my friend. In the end those of us who took the opportunity to delve into this game, we are brothers and sisters..let your memories reign and resound..through them we share bonds. However painful they might be. From an American, I consider you an ally, a brother. Embrace the experience my friend, it’ll make you a better person, more empathetic, you’ll have a deeper understanding of things around you. People take for granted the impact a game can have on a person. Yet, calling cyberpunk a game just feels strange..for everything I witnessed, it almost felt like I actually went through it all..maybe it’s a glitch in the matrix, regardless friend, rise and rise again..
не одна. Сама только вчера прошла игру. Такое чувство, будто все мои чувства и эмоции пропустили через мясорубку. Никогда такой пустоты внутри не ощущала
This music is wonderful. Through a bug, this music continued in freeplay. It was night in night city, this music was running and I was driving the Porsche Turbo through Chinatown. Great. Just great.
I'm not crying, you're crying! ;_;
This game and the developers had one problem in common
corporate companies
Telling them how to do the game, when it needed to be released, many this game was a way to vent anger at the corporate execs pushing them to quickly release unfinished games.
Thanks a lot for this, Cried a lot to it in game and now I can’t help but keep coming back to hear it, part of me is attached to johnny and the story so bad, hell i cry when i think of this one moment at johnny’s “grave” site, but johnny i would give you a gravestone, a really beautiful one :( such beautiful music, makes it feel so alive and hits every feeling you’re supposed to feel.
It’s been the longest time since a game made me feel this way, what a beautiful masterpiece
I know what you mean! It's a beautiful scene from a beautiful game, so emotionally powerful!
it's slowly never fade away..
New dawn fades
Once I first encountered Johnny, I was like, huh, he's gonna try and kill me eh? Then after a few minutes he starts talking about shit and I see that he's flawed, like most people. His heart was in the right place, his methods are just... a grey area I suppose.
After a while i liked the the fact that he would just pop up while doing side quests and just comment on stuff. In my first playthrough I didn't even do the chippin' in questline and honestly? I'm so sad i didn't. I would've had a shot at unlocking the secret ending since I was already at 60%. This playthrough I'm doing it slow like. Playing the game on normal instead of very hard, taking my time, seeking side quests, that sorta thing. Seeing Johnny pop up and interacting is awesome. I really wish there was more we could do together, but I'll take what I can.
Also, I gotta say, seeing Johnny sitting there, in the oil fields, looking defeated like that... I actually cried.
Goodbye V and Never Stop Fighting
Thank you for making this with the scene! Think this was the moment when V and Johnny became a true friend.
Just seeing him sit there like that is painful
Real :(
This part is rough, his comments that after all he did this is it, an unmarked grave in a landfill. Hits pretty hard.
yeah I mean he killed quarter million people, what did he expect ?
@@nosky9296 I think its more the fact that after you die regardless of what you did you don't expect to be forgotten that quickly
Say what you want about this game but I absolutely love it, mainly down to one thing. My perspective changed. At first, I wanted to be this tough, no nonsense mercenary who rose to the top and was scared of nothing. I wanted to be a legend, but after losing Jackie and slowly dying, I just wanted to get out of night city. I can only think of a handful of games that have made my perspective of their story do a 180°
This was one of the best side quest's in history and really should have been made part of the main quest imo. Didn't care for him much before this quest, but after I could understand him being the way he is much more. So many stories have the hero going out in a blaze of glory and that's how it ends, with the protagonist sacrificing themselves. But to see the hero come back 50 years later and hit bottom, when he see's he is in an unmarked grave and that his last hoorah didn't really change anything, hits hard. All the Rockstar bravado drops and you see him for what he actually is.... a decent guy that was used by the system and was trying to change a system that kills the poor people.
Damn, the ost hit me in the soul while playing the game. Now it does it again
Damn the second part got me. Gotta, gotta, resist
The sound of a dead self-absorbed man, resurrected to learn his life - his fight - amounted to nothing, not even being remembered.
The dialogue with Johnny on the grave is excellent. Very emotional, well-written dialogue, well-chosen soundtrack in the background. Great job! CD Project has some of the best screenwriters in the game world.
Listening to this melody, I directly feel Johnny's lonely pain and it makes me worse when I realize that I cannot get into the monitor screen and hug him. Johnny became a friend not only to V, he became a friend to all of us
Hopefully in the add-ons we get to know the real ending of the game and free Johnny / V from Alt's imprisonment, though .. It's impossible, right?
Yes, we would all like to see a sequel if in the second part the player is either V or Johnny (in two versions of all dialogues) I'm ready for it: Shut up and take my money 100$...
But there can be no better end. Goodbye my friend.
