This is the scene that took Silverhand from edgy asshole into genuine human being. The mask of the revolutionary rockstar fell apart, and you got to see a man who died before his time, filled with regrets, as he realizes he died unmourned, buried in an unmarked grave, everyone who knew and once loved him worse off for it.
And slowly realising how most people he considered friends couldnt even stand to be in the same room as him, I sort of was sympathizing with Johny early on and felt so bad when I found out how badly I screwed him over playing the Devil ending at first and only cuz I didnt want to risk Panam and I didnt realise I could take Rogue to the date and progress further with Johny as friends so I couldnt send him either
@@patrikdobradi509 He was so self centered that he never took the time to see how other people were affected by him, and when he was "riding the backseat" while V was in control, it hit him like a ton of bricks.
This song only plays 2 times in the game and both times it plays in a moment where you have essentially failed your goal or find out that your goal was always unattainable but soon after realize you can continue in a new direction and that their is hope.
@@HaloDude557 at Johnny's grave in the oil fields and at the columbarium in either ending where Johnny either takes V's body or the other way around If I recall
"You don't make a name as a cyberpunk by how you live, you're remembered by how you die". This theme hits so much deeper than original Never fade away. Behind the glamorous night city, there is Johnny's grave left behind in the oil field just like a pile of trash, that no one could even bother remembering anymore, they live on. "There is no happy ending in nightcity", doesn't matter if its Johnny, V, or David, they all had something in common, is that they accepted their fate. The despair feeling I felt from this song was like after giving all youve got and still wont be able to change the outcome made me really felt it deep.
Even those brave enough to stand up to the oppression this world faces are destined to be forgotten. Its too far gone. Far beyond the possibility of salvation.
I dare to say Cyberpunk 2077 is the best looking video game I've played so far, and I've played quite a lot of them. One of those games where you can really appreciate what your hardware can handle.
I can't get over how casually this game drops real existential questions on you and then just leaves you to grapple with what it means. The voice acting and writing is also incredible, Very few games(or pieces of media rather) are able to get me intellectually invested in an issue like cyberpunk did. Its also somewhat interesting how a lot of important characters are left with unmarked graves but rather- that is also what makes them legends.
this is the first game i’d genuinely give ANYTHING to experience for the first time again. i’ve played a lot of good games, from Halo, to GOW, RDR2, The Witcher series. but this is the only game i’ve genuinely felt emotionally connected to. this scene sold me on Silverhand. the endings were perfect yet heartbreaking. Cyberpunk will forever hold a special place in my heart. beautiful soundtrack, story, characters. and will forever go down for me as the only game to genuinely make me cry, feel empty, yet also my happiest somehow. it’s a fucking masterpiece. Mike Pondsmith, CDPR, thank you, from the bottom of my heart for a fucking perfect game. I only wish we got more than 1 DLC. other than that this game was an emotional rollercoaster of pure perfection.
I agree bro, man this game is insanely good, I don't understand how this game doesn't get the recognition it deserves, it is simply the best game I ever played, just like you said, it connect us to the world like only a few games can.
@@andrefelipe2643 I remember sitting there on that basilisk with Panam during the Aldecaldo ending then getting the Credits with THAT cover of Never Fade Away and Iswtg I think I cried
Couldn't have said it better myself. I played Cyberpunk during a midlife crisis and the entire game absolutely took me in and changed my entire outlook of life. It was absolutely enthralling and playing the game every year or so is my new therapy.
Rdr2 didn't give you that same feeling? It's also sad asf though. Arthur sort of goes through the same thing V goes through. He knows he's going to die, but he does what he can to help save what's left of the gang. After everything he's done, in the end, he finds his redemption. Just like Johnny Silverhand. For me, both games will go down as two of the most memorable games of the last decade.
This happens when you play this mission and when you give Johnny your body ending, See Robert John Linder Isn’t just the relentless rocker boy people say he is, He’s a person with a troubled past, always messes things up with people, reminds me of myself. Love this game and Love silverhand
The part where V says "No johnny you fucked that up too" played right at 2:14 for me, and it was one of the best cutscene moments ive ever had in a game.
I got to this scene for the first time |after| I did the entirety of Phantom Liberty, and I feel like that made it all the more impactful. Going through PL with Johnny makes it feel like a much longer gradual change of tolerance leading to his quests that made the conversation here feel that much more significant
In my first playthrough i treated nice to him but in the second i didn't forgive him and i said you lost me too i become very depressed and genuinely sad then when i was departing from fields the fucking guitar hits i walked all the way while listening the theme and i cried
The first time I gave it a try was after its first patch, and it was terrible felt like an unpolished project and couldn't care anything about this game. And suddenly one day one of my favorite bassist who sumon bhaiya suggested to give this another try and told me how c77 became his favorite. And after 1.6 patch the game was pretty optimized and while casually roaming around I felt really atttached to night city. I MEAN everyone can fell the energy, right? Completed the whole story and liberty also and in the end all these left is this track..reminds how a video game can make you fell about life! Sitting in the Oil fields and hearing the riffs of never fade away in low pitch always gets me to the edge of reality.
I don’t usually play games with the audio, as I listen to music n shit, but when I came back to this mission and heard this, can’t even describe how it made me feel
@canaldodorn839 Life sucks ass in general. But even the worst days can have something good in 'em, just gotta be willing to look for it choom. There's a little beauty in everything/one.
its time to lock in. this is the theme of your realization. where you are up to now is because of your descions. the only way out is to make the right descisions from now on. lock in.
I feel like im already dead, thats nothing in this life that compare to this game, its been a year since i last played it, its all so empty, so pointless, i feel like a ghost
I'm glad it was kept short and sweet. no time felt wasted, that it all served a purpose and established the bonds the team had. I feel anything else would've been padding for time. Here's to that fucking city, and more stories to come from it!
This song wouldnt have fit the edgerunners story imo. 2077 and edgerunners have completely different atmospheres imo. 2077 is supposed to have a more chilling and dark story and atmosphere whereas edgerunners is supposed to feel more vibrant in a way. So this perfectly fits 2077 imo. Also since its a different version of silverhands theme it wouldnt really make sense to have it in an anime that has nothing to do with silverhand

That moment and this ambient track.. everytime it makes me shed a tear. Such a beautiful moment...
"The guy who saved my life".
"Of all the heads I coulda popped up in, hella glad it was yours"

Which 2 times?

"So that's it then...nothing here at all."
Johny and V just might be my favorite redemption/friend dynamic in fiction.
❤❤🔥🔥 without a Doubt
the two most immersive moments, in a game full of immersion
This is the mission that really sold me on Silverhand

not only yours mine to since 2020 when i first listen to this Masterpiece❤❤🔥🔥

V and Johnny: *have a heartfelt convo*
Also V: *takes betablockers* "damn his metal arm will sell for good on ebay, better dig around"
rest in peace silverhand
3:58 is such an epic tune. Feels like that bit is in every great song from the Witcher and Cyberpunk.

1:45 and 3:59 are just so good
Fuck .Now i want to replay that masterpice......

Will never fade away..."
Never fade away 😢. Music so heavy and Cold.

1:49 kinda reminds me of new dawn fades by joy division
messes me up every time
Love that they used New Dawn Fades and Transmission for gig titles. JD was before their time.

would have been a perfect fit with edgerunners, what a beautiful show shame it was rushed a bit. could have been 15 ep long at least!
