eyy same anon with the shades who asked the band question, thanks so much for answering btw *heart hands*; the group i gave you is not actually a group, but the name of a VERY good song - supermassive black hole by muse :3 (the guitar parts give me such johnny vibes like ,,,, perfection)

so far as other bands go, ima have to give that one more thought, but one real-world artist i could imagine samurai playing with would have to be lindsey stirling, the violinist. even though she does mainly dubstep, she still rocks HARD (rock with an electric violin would be AWESOME ngl) and her whole vibe would fit right into the Cyberpunk universe <3

Goddamn, I just proved my point that I know little about music, haha

Ah! Muse, yeah, of course, I understand what you mean now xDD Indeed, quite fitting!

Honestly, you surprise me with Lindsey Stirling, I would have never made a link between them. I listened to her waaaaay back, but not anymore so I do not know what she makes anymore, but I’ll take your word for it ^^

About loving Johnny

I have a hard time accepting the fact that most of us playing Cyberpunk 2077 are simply falling in love with a bunch of data from a chip. 

Taken directly from Johnny Silverhand’s Cyberpunk Wiki page (spoiler ahead): “Depending on the dialogue choices the player makes in Cyberpunk 2077, they can either make Johnny's engram admit he's nothing but data or give him a sense of humanity. If Johnny is treated like nothing but data, he will admit his nature is to inspire rebellion within V and to honor the real Johnny Silverhand's final wish while he returns with the image of Alt Cunningham through the Blackwall.”

He can admit he is nothing but codes, but the player is the one who gave him so much humanity.

It fucks with my mind so much. I can not stop thinking about how much it gives off a feeling about V, us, feeling lonely in this hardship, so they decide to make it seems not as lonely. This game can be taken apart of so many levels, there is so much complexity when you think about it... Psychology, philosophy, sociology, literature... This game could have been such a masterpiece, (it is one in my mind despite the critics) but it took such a beating because the game was rushed, people were getting too impatient of waiting...

I'm jealous

Played through the Pistis Sophia scene again, trying out all the options as you do. Found out that if you keep disagreeing with him and being suspicious of his motives, there's a point where this happens:

V: No, refuse to let you manipulate me.

Johnny: Huh. Not workin', is it?

Which is... interesting.

I also was reminded that when you answer his promise by saying you'd do the same for him, he has this slightly odd response.

Just this extremely flat, very emotionless "Yeah, thanks."

I don't think that's a mistake. I don't think Keanu misread the tone of the line or there was a lack of direction during recording. With the hindsight that he absolutely will take V's body for a joyride once he gets it, I feel like this scene is very much supposed to be him gently, not without sincerity in parts (because the best lies include the truth, and Johnny is very good at all things charisma skill), manipulating V to get what he wants.

I think the dogtags, the war story, the promise, it wasn't completely untrue, but he deliberately presented it the way he did to get something he wanted. He even led V every way he could to get the "I'd take a bullet for you" admission, which he of course expected and knew he was manipulating out of them, for the purpose of setting up his request to be received as well as possible.

But when V takes it farther than he expected, returning his promise and taking their prior statement from a nebulous hypothetical to a very real declaration about their very real situation, I think Johnny has absolutely no idea what to do with that.

I think that moment is his first pang of regret. I think it's the seed for the talk at the gravesite. I think he can't muster a slick response, this wasn't part of the plan, this wasn't how this was supposed to go.

I mean when they are still out on the balcony and you accuse him, he's angry and has an immediate response. Same with when you thank him, he has a smooth and pretty warmly delivered reply.

But when V says this, his voice goes flat and he barely gets two words out. He goes from leaning forward with open posture and looking right at V to looking away and leaning back, crossing his arms in front of him. And he immediately changes the subject.

Johnny doesn't say *internal panic, existential crisis .exe started*, he says "Yeah, thanks." and I just think that's so beautiful.

aaaand i made a compilation of my favorite cat vines

I fucking miss Cyberpunk 2077 so much 😭😭😭 I haven't played in months, but I miss it dearly... Miss Johnny... I miss my Vs... Miss the emotions I got while playing... I miss spending hours checking out mods made by the community and looking at screenshots taken by people...

I miss everything, dude 😭❤
