      None. It's extremely common for games to have 'cut content'. Just like movies film more footage than they actually use. 'Cut content' is interesting, but it's nothing special, or anything 'lost'. If CDPR had taken more time before initial release, or been less 'chaotic', then we simply would've gotten something akin to 2.0, but maybe a little bit sooner.

      With 2.0 and Phantom Liberty the game is incredibly good, but I guess that with Cyberpunk 2 (which got it's totally own studio now) they will do all these things better. I have the strong feeling that Cyberpunk 2 Orion will be crazy good.

      They said it was going to be bigger than witcher 3 as a whole including With its DLC! A vast portion of the city leading into the badlands was cut from the game and was actually going to be used in the last mission on the assault on arasaka and Adam smasher was going to have a total of 8 phases starting in that cut out portion of the city and ending where we fight him in the last boss fight with him.

    Honestly the Militech cut content was the biggest disappointment for me. Meredith literally offers you work if you side with her but it never goes anywhere. It sucks that we’re not getting any more dlc because I’d pay just as much as Phantom Liberty to get this content restored with a proper Militech ending for the game.

      Hopefully the sequel contains a lot more content as they already have a quality game built now. Let's hope they can port most of it over and then use much of the development time to expand on it. Much the same way Rockstar Games are able to use much of what they create in previous titles to make a more detailed and bigger game every iteration

Even in Edgerunners Maine’s crew was doing a lot of jobs for them. Plus with how hugely important Militech is in the cyberpunk universe it’s beyond perplexing that there’s no questline for them especially when almost all of the endings involve attacking Arasaka tower. They were 100% cut content and we need it restored as dlc.

    The devs tried to make them inaccessible, but with double jump and dashing you can't really do that. The objects inside the walls of these places are there to help you get out, so i can just imagine some dev being sad putting those there like "I don't blame you for getting in here, but unfortunately there is nothing to see. Here are some crates for you to get out"

    Seems to indicate some sort of faction system like we see in games like Fallout, also feels similar to how gangs feel relatively underbaked outside of a few story beats. Specifically with Militech, I agree that Meredith probably had more going on, whether she had tons of missions and side stories or if she's a sort of "in" with Militech. You do work with her and eventually she puts you in front of high ups at the company for bigger work. For the amount of work and detail that went into her character model, dialog, and voice acting, it definitely feels like there was more planned (especially when you consider that depending on your choices, you can find her dead body in the water).

    My guess is CD Projekt Red originally intended to have a much more in-depth factions system, where V could potentially side with a corporation like Militech and work their way up the ladder in order to maybe achieve an ending after beating the game. And maybe also working for other rival factions, which in turn makes the Militech building a place to stealth or even blast your way through to gain favour with others, perhaps unlocking another ending based on that. It seems like something the devs would do, before having to scale everything back for the final release thus leaving content like this unfinished.

    And finally nomad could've possibly had different clan choices which would've definitely impacted your relationship with the Aldecaldo's more (what if V was born into a Raffen clan?)

      Yeah but on the other hand I don't understand CD Project's decisions because this way they had such an opportunity to add this unused content in 2 or even 3 expansions. Pure profit. Probably there are even unfinished quests drafts / texts / models / animations still in company database that could be implemented in game. GTA 5 is still being updated after almost 10 years and it still has a lot of players. CD Project finally fixed this game engine after 3 years from release, eliminated most of the bugs and now they just abandon game and focus on other projects. This financial strategy makes no sense to me. There's a huge Night City map with a lot of buildings and terrain that can be filled with new content. You need so much more effort and so many developers to create totally new game .... and less than 1/3 of the team to create some expansions. Witcher 3 had 2 expansions (Blood and Wine was even larger than phantom liberty in my opinion) and they finished Cyberpunk 2077 with just one.

    I would honestly be fine with cyberpunk 2077 2 just expanding on the current city map, a la Hyrule in Zelda BOTW and TOTK. Add some more verticality, build out these planned areas (Arasaka Watefront, Hills, Badlands, etc.), and maybe expand the city limits a bit. I’m still finding new areas and interesting locations in 2077, with over 200 hours across multiple playthroughs

    Seeing all the unfinished and clearly cut content in the game like this building, the casino, the spaceport, and so much more, AND seeing what the devs did with Phantom Liberty makes me sad but it also makes me SO excited for the potential of a sequel. If CDPR learns its lessons with this game and gives the next one the time and care it deserves and needs, it could be obsoletely amazing. In my opinion, this game is really great (especially now), but the fact that it basically released in its beta state and only NOW is at the point it should have been on release is ridiculous. I really hope CDPR does better in future.

    • @Drew.DrivesYT

      Tell that to the shareholders, as they're ultimately the ones that forced CDPR's hand. It was either release the game and piss off a lot of fans, or delay the game and lose *A LOT* of money, resulting in the game possibly never even being released. Company has to keep the lights on somehow.
      However next time 'round might be better, as long as CDPR manages to temper shareholder expectations. A great start would be not giving unrealistic release dates and then pushing them back three times so you don't get yourself into a lose-lose situation again.

    My guess is that they can reuse a lot of stuff they didn't end up using for the sequel.

    If you think about the idea of a militech ending it makes sense..
    In the start of the game you meat a militech agent meredith stout this character originally planed to play a bigger role in the story you can discover that in a tattoo on her neck I guess the original idea for her she well have a entire questline like judy panam kerry and river and this questline well give you a new option in the ending like the a Aldecaldo panam ending but for militech

  • @Khannea

    I am positive that in a future modders and game designers will proceed to massively finish detail of Night City, adding major interiors of megabuildings, adding stations, adding whole sections where players can wander. I am not certain whether or not this "reverse engineering" will happen in Unreal, or Red Engine will linger on for some time. If CDPR is smart about it, they will crowdsource design and development, do in-house clean-up of these desgns over time, make certain that the whole process seamlessly migrates into Unreal over time. There is potential for "a return to Night City", taking content from mods, and essentially doubling the functional real estate in Night City - or even have it go exponential well before 2030. This city is a labour of love in both creators as well as players and modders. People will not let this go. This game will not die, even if CDPR as a game company would die.
    In a perfect world, by 2040 Night City is majorly filled in, will run in Unreal, will have multiple career paths, several new ending for V, will have subsumed most mods into itself, and will have ben re-assimilated by some form of CDPR management. There may be gameplay unthinkable for today, maybe even options for completely different characters and character arcs, timelines and storylines. I know multiplayer games tend to rot because of low player quality, but I can imagine group play where a number of players go through a series of game challenges as a team. I can even see such endeavours have an X-rated quality. there is a lot of pornographic potential for Night City and demand certainly exists. Leveling up your Mister Stud / Venus Flower, anyone?
