    Just finished Phantom Liberty and what an awesome story and gameplay. It made me come back to play CP2077 and enjoy Night City again. The music, story and characters were so well done. The finale hit hard when I finished PL and got different endings.

    After playing through I don't see him as Idris anymore. He's Solomon Reed for me. Shows how good the acting was.

    I was genuinely impressed by his performance as Reed. Elba put so much sincerity into that roll that at times I’d almost think it’s a real person while I was speaking with him as V. CDPR knocked it out of the park with Phantom Liberty and put Cyberpunk back on the map as a result. They went from PR disaster to earning enormous profits and praise. Amazing and almost completely unheard of. Most developers would’ve just let their game rot had they received such backlash, but they did the opposite and doubled down their passion for their work, with a genuine desire to redeem themselves and it’s their player base and it proved to be the greatest comeback in video game history. Cyberpunk is my favorite game of all time and after experiencing Phantom Liberty I’m incredibly excited to see what’s in store from them in the future.

    He's a great actor, and was equally great in PL, shame we won't get more of his character (or any character) in Cyberpunk. Unless CDPR makes the sequel happen directly after the events of the first.

    I think phantom liberty would have been a great movie especially if he was casted to play Reed. Would be a blockbuster even if someone doesn’t know what cyberpunk is.

  • @davidm6329
    @davidm6329 Рік тому +12

    Idris is a badass, and I love his work. One thing I do seem to notice though is that he doesn't really feel these interviews. You get some stars where they will take a question, and they will passionately explore it and you can tell they enjoy being able to talk about it. Idris seems more like the kind of guy who does a job, does it well, and the media tour just isn't for him.
    It can be frustrating as a fan, because I want the actor to be as in love with the project and talking about it as I am. But that's just not how things go all the time.
    Idris was an absolute highlight of this expansion. Every time he was on screen, I wanted to hear what he had to say, and I felt like this character was perfect for his brand of reserved and dutiful character history.

    • @TheAwesomejay
      @TheAwesomejay Рік тому +7

      I think he's under orders not to spoil anything so that practically makes it hard to talk about. He can't actually talk about anything his character does or his backstory, so he has to talk about everything in vague terms which is hard to get excited about

    Hi. Can anyone or someone tell me why this short movies for Cyberpunk 2077 - Phantom Liberty game they not appear in game like that with So Mi (Songbird), Dogtown, and female V on start with Johnny Silverhand on that AV or that part where again female V appear on background when we launch Cyberpunk game?

  • @J0eMega

    This was my first time hearing his voice, and after playing through PL, I was definitely not expecting a British accent. Is this just part of the skills of a voice actor, or is the American accent just that easy to emulate?

    He is an American character in the game. Wish he had done a Southerner accent like he did in that Taraji Hensen thriller where he was an escaped convict from Georgia or Alabama. If not that he should have done his natural British accent. It's sooooo cool!

      Being a secret agent for the New United States the British accent would have been a weird choice but I agree his native accent is awesome!
