This comment section makes me realise that most people that has actually completed this game understands how amazing it is.. sure the launch was horrible, but my god this game is phenomenal.. I hope one day people will look past the launch and realise how great this game was
The game was meh. The story though... That's something else entirely. Don't get me wrong, I loved the setting, but CDPR oversold and over promised the features and cut out a lot of them.
@@XSamsaX oh for sure they definitely oversold the game but for but for what it is I've gotta say it's a great game. I bought it on sale for like $30 on PC, went into it with no expectations and it totally surprised.
I played the game twice and a half because I lost my second save (not because of the game) and I can tell you, the game wasn't amazing, wasn't a live changing experience but I can assure that the game wasn't trash, wasn't a masterpiece neither but it was great. The problem with the game is that it feels so unfinished and CDPR oversold the game saying it was going to be the second coming of Jesus and promised a lot of things that never got to the final product and if we add the incredible amount of performance problems the game had at launch and still have to this day people had every right to feel like they were scammed, I felt scammed too if I'm being honest but when I decided to ignore all of that, all the bugs, all the crashes and the performance issues and just played the game the best way I could I saw an great game that was ruined because of the poor management of the executives and felt sad about what the game could have actually been. I also need to add that I played the game on a ps4 fat, the worst platform to play it along side with Xbox one and still managed to enjoy it.
The story just sucked me the fuck in and didn’t let go even after the credits. I stand behind this game 100% now upon playing it. And yes, I play on a base PS4.
That line really hurt me, imagine remembering everyday that your friend is dead and the worst part is you can’t even try to think of anything else because everyday you wake up you see yourself wearing his body.
@@xxlasthopexx2603 And it's not like he couldn't have the face changed, right? It's literally an era where you look like whoever or whatever you want. They had bodysculpting way back in 2020 and by RED it's gotten even cheaper. Hell, he could probably go order back his own face. Johnny Silverhand sculpts are probably popular for Halloween costumes! What I mean is he doesn't have to look like V. It'd be the easiest thing in the world to not look like V. And yet the last lap of the game is playable and shows he's keeping that face, at least for now. Maybe to Johnny it'd be like burying V in an unmarked grave. And he doesn't want to do that. To erase him totally from the world.
@@dustinjones7458 in a way I feel like Johnny wouldn’t want to change his face. I mean think about it, he got a 2nd chance at a full life when he pissed all away being a terrorist. And now under exceptional circumstances he ends up in a mind and body of someone else, befriends him/her and at a cost of V’s life, Johnny gets inhabit the body. Having to see that face is a very small price to pay for that 2nd chance.
Phantom Liberty was awful in the best way. Honestly I really think that the "good ending" is the worst of them all. Being another face in the crowd. Especially in Cyberpunk. Really made me think.
@skyhisurvivor4724 I agree, but that's mostly because of how CDPR framed the ending. Could have just as easily tried to show it in a more positive light.
@@nukefuel6757 I mean it kinda sucks when everyone's life just goes on without you. Hell if you romance Judy she fully just dumps you, leaves and marries someone else
@ekremslayer3389 It does suck, but realistically speaking, in life we are constantly moving on from one challenge to the next. It's our job to make the most the experience. You'll lose some friends and you'll make new ones. You may do some self exploration and find something else that gives you purpose. I see the ending as a clean slate. Sure, V's life will suck for a while, but that doesn't always have to be the case. Regardless, it all comes down to what you value more at the end of the day and your perspective on the matter.
"Let's delta. Nothin' to see here after all." "Worth comin' out all the same?" "Absolutely. Thanks V. Of all the heads I coulda popped up in, hella glad it was yours."
Yeah, the story is golden in this game. People give it shit for being buggy, not being GTA VI and limited branching story options, yet I love it. Why? The story is convincing, instead of being another naive rehash of "you are the chosen one! go and stop evil". The world is atmospheric and characters well fleshed out. If I could change something is that you could invite NPCs on your other missions and just to cruise around the city. I hope this is a start of a new successful franchise.
@@definitelynotadam and also the soundtracks and radio music, which basically "multiply" the emotional effect of all the good parts of the game that you mentioned
@@definitelynotadam the thing is as well, people complained about the choices you make not changing the city but that's the point, it's a game that warns you about dystopian futures like this, the choices you make change what people in game think of you, not what the city becomes
This is as true as a Cyberpunk genre story can get...it's never truly perfect in the end...you're just trying to survive. "It's not about saving the world....it's about saving yourself." -Mike Pondsmith
People like laymen gaming actually said that the story doesn't make you think by asking big questions that are common in the cyberpunk universe! I had to laugh 😂😂😂 at how stupid that sounds. They don't ask you they actually pose those questions you directly through the gameplay and the choice's you can make! Point is it's a dam good story regardless of how it launched.
@@tonytrident8874 I feel like people missed the whole point of the cyberpunk genre in general its supposed to be ambiguous the world building in general is based around society falling apart with criminals eking out survival in a dystopian nightmare its designed to make you question things in general. Honestly after watching altered carbon season 1 and blade runner as well as reading neuromancer this game hit all the right notes with the story and as you said from what mike pondsmith was saying its not about saving the world its about individual stories of saving oneself. If you knew when precisely you were going to die and there wasn't any escaping it what would you do? such an interesting question sacrifice yourself for an engram or live out your remaining life as a legend maybe not something you wanted but something you got from the whole journey. There are many other options at that point to its fun to see so many people miss those points by complaining about "side quests" being generic when they miss out on some of the more in depth missions that build and expand on characters and add more to night city.
This game to me despite not being able to save V for more then six months is probably the best representation of a story giving an ending that isn't one hundred percent cut and dry good or bad its not even a clean break either especially because with this ending in particular Silverhand hand points out he can never forget V because he's wearing there face sure he could change it but if he did that could be like burying V in some hole in the dirt just like how Silverhand was.
"Can't carry this around anymore. Can't keep wallowing, can't keep obsessing over what happened. Couldn't forget you anyway...I'm wearing your goddamn face..."
"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 twenty-four seven.." 💔💔💔💔💔
For Becca, for David, for Evelyn, for Takemura, for Alex, for Songbird, for Reed, for Maine, for Jackie, for Gloria, for Alt, for Saul, for Rogue, for Johnny, and for V. Never fade away, chooms
I’ve never felt such strong emotional connection to game characters, how I felt in Cyberpunk. Grave scene just ripped tears out of me. What an amazing game, even with all technical problems. One of the greatest story’s, that been told by a game... If only there were way to somehow save V, for real. Because of all I seen, 6 months is all you get, no matter what you’ve done. This fact is just left void in my soul after end credits. But maybe inevitable death have something with idea of “meaningful life...” ? Before anything else I found this message. This game, like nothing else, has got me thinking about last moments of life, about meaning of my actions and importance of goals I’m trying to achieve.
Same. Not a lot of games leave me with a gut-wrenching sorrowful journey that colors my real world perspective. There's a loneliness to the world, even though you are surrounded by fascinating characters.
By the end of my first playthrough (nomad) I said I would destroy Arasaka. When all was said and done I sided with the sister, Johnny died, my mind was taken out, and for about an hour I really hated myself more than I ever had as a gamer.
Get the bad ending on Metro: Exodus (and don't look it up, you have to play the whole game and care) and it'll feel so real you can't even cry because it's beyond that. Profound emotion.
@@changwufei5 To get that buildup and care for the characters you're going to have to take a slow crawl through Metro 2033: Redux, Metro: Last Light (Redux) and then Metro: Exodus
The “Secure your Soul” Arasaka ending had me in shambles, the countless repetitive tests actually started to irritate I was sinking into V it felt unreal and real at the same time… truly it is a flawed work of art but a work of art nonetheless
I love this game. I'm happy I pre-ordered it. I wish CDPR luck on updating this game. I'm happy that I bought this title, and do think the characters are awesome.
Same man, I have so many good memories about it, when I started playing on 10th December, the long sleepless nights I spent playing it, the soundtrack, the characters, the city, the atmosphere I wish I could forget everything about it and experience it again (but on a high end computer this time haha)
"The person you just, uh, visited... he die awhile ago?" "Not that long ago." "You miss him?" "A little, yeah." "When my grandpa died, I missed him a lot... But now I only miss him sometimes." "Mhm..."
@@izaiahambridge9267 I'm so sorry for your loss, man. Strange thing is, my grandfather actually died the very same night that I got this ending for the first time. 😢 I knew he was gonna go that night, but when Steve said that line about his own grandpa, I was like "woah." This game was all about going out as a legend, & I can say, with certainty that my grandfather certainly did, indeed (as did yours, I'm sure 😊). He was a great man, with a kind heart, a gentle soul, good sense of humour, & one helluva golfer - won the British Boy's Championship back in 1948! ⛳ I can only hope to be half the person he was. I love you, grandad. See you in the Major Leagues, champ. 🍻🤝❤
Okay but who allowed this version to exist in such unbelievable beauty and heartbreak at the same time😭? I literally can’t with this version it breaks my heart and makes me nostalgic for even the things I didn’t live or experience
This song isn’t for people who lost things and it wasn’t their fault, it’s for people who lost things and recognizes it’s their fault and they can never go back to what they had before
This game is 100 certified and IDGAF about the bugs and crashes coming from a PS4 user in Cali this game hit got some many things right....this game is what you call a uncut gem💯
Same guys. PS4 pro. Not as many but still plenty of problems. Still, this game, the soundtrack, the characters, I feel like I've been playing this game my whole life. It hits every heartstring.
I've done Red dead redemption 2 8 times, and before I played cyberpunk, I thought rdr had the best storyline. Now, I know, that storyline is a hundred times better in cyberpunk.
Was looking for this for a while. This version is so dope man. This is the penultimate choice for the best moment in the game. “You’re my friend V, and don’t you forget it” “never stop fighting “
I've never been so emotionally invested in a game. My first run lasted 130 hours. I've never been able to start another one, because of the reminiscences I still feel from that first run. From the level The bells of Laguna bend, the game entered a whole new dimension. I was in Night city. This was no longer a game. And this will never fade away.
At this point right now im pretty sure that somewhere out there them cd project red devs are sitting, listening to this song thinking what could've been if... if they didn't launch that game when they did but instead delay it one more year.. i mean sure yeah that extra year would be hell because everyone would trash them for such a long delay, BUT... when the game would finally come out polished and just the way it is right now, not only people would forgive them that they had to wait that long but also the game would become the best game of the century right away... seriously no other game or movie made me feel the way this game did.. i never cared this much about any fictional character ever before.. i stopped playing it week ago and its still in my head.. truly a masterpiece.. really sad that it has this rough beginning and that it took me 2 years to finally give it a try....
Ah, V... Can't keep wallowing...can't keep obsessing over what happened. Couldn't forget you anyway...I'm wearing your goddamn face. Thanks, V. For...heh...well, for everything. I'm wiser now, and I don't intend to waste it, so this is goodbye. *V* *Dreamer*
I started as corpo and ended up siding with the Aldecados. Didn't give Johnny my body. I know Alt told me 6 months to live but if there's anything Silverhand taught corpo V was to never stop fighting and that's what my character did. Never stop fighting even in the face of inminent death and when you die, then die on your own terms.
The endings hit hard for me cause I can relate to V as a character. Now not on every level of course but in terms of personality, yeah, I have lost friends too, sometimes I feel hopeless but keep going, and I wonder what kind of memory I'll leave behind and etc. That's why I love V, hes such a relatable character to many. And really does remind you of the human condition and how fragile we really are. Sometimes you gotta look death in the face and spit, because no matter what, itll eventually catch up with you so make your time here worth it. Think about it, if you had 6 months to live, what would you do?
I'm still working on the game slowly but I recently turned 21 and this song is as bitter and somber as I can describe the city where I live in. Dear old L.A isn't too far gone as night city, it strips a human from all of their will and continues to swallow them whole. I finally understand why the quality of life here will never improve here, I hope to move away one day but I don't think I will never ever stop feeling empty. In memorial to all the V's who let their Johnny take over. Never fade away you guys.
Man this segment of the game was so emotional. It's literally gives emotional vibes like the games rdr2,tlou gave to people. I am sad that people missed out s great story because game performed poorly.
This played during moments of death and/or remembrance. V, Evelyn, johny every loss this was it's orchestra. this song is about inevitably, you can't control the stop of something that you never had control to start. How we can only prolong inevitable situation that we never asked for, think about it. No one asked tombe born but then we ask not to die despite death being something that faces everyone in the face. Coming to terms with loss of anything is difficult but this song shows that the only way to keep someone at our sides when they're gone is to remember them, this version of the is like remembering johny, eveyln, v. While they are gone the faint memory of them might be enough to keep them with us.
In the end, everyone who took blaze of glory ended with absolutely nothing, whereas those whom choose quiet life(Lucy in Edgerunners, V if sided with Nomads, or Tower ending, or Johnny in this one) ended with something. Looks like it really was a quiet life in the end
I can't get enough of this song. I, like many people here have been touched by this games story. It's such a tragedy. From my experience playing Cyberpunk Red, (the tabletop roleplaying game), this games story is so fitting to the setting. There are almost never happy endings, just morbidly beautiful stories of the fight to survive.
There's an unexplainable fear and sadness to this version. Sort of makes you think about how unforgiving Night City is as an entity. Some people just aren't cut out for it.
There are no heroes in Night City. Only Legends. There are people who try and fuck do they try... but they never win. The City pushes everyone to the edge and you either go out in a blaze of glory or live long enough to lose everything that matters. The 'Good' Cops that don't die fighting corruption go crooked. The Doctors and Nurses that don't break from the daily flood of rent metal, death, blood and guts just go private- their oaths forsaken unless you pay them to care. The Rockers that take to the streets to fight corporate colonialism and maddening chaos- uniting people to seek a better future, they either die young or live to see their message lost, misinterpreted, ignored and forgotten. Johnny did both in a way. Went out in a Blaze of Glory and 55 years later his name scars the city streets; but nothing has changed. He changed nothing. The City scrugged him off and continued its freefall without him. He is not a hero. Heroes save the girl- not trap them in cyberspace. Heroes kill the Evil Emperor- not watch them order their death. Heroes make the world a better place- not make it worse. Heroes are the kind of people who wouldn't sacrifice themselves for someone who didn't deserve a second chance... they won't be that stupid. And that's what breaks Johnny. He can think of a billion reasons why he shouldn't have been saved. Why V should have taken their body back and let him fade away beyond the Blackwall. All the reasons why he had absolutely no reason to come back after ruining so many lives. But there he is. Standing before the memorial of V. The only friend they had left and the only hero Night City would ever know. Cause there are no heroes in Night City. Only Legends.
Привет, чумба! А ты помнишь, как ты в детстве играл в разные игры? Было весело) Ты еще грустил по пустякам, было забавно даже...

Если ты сейчас читаешь этот комментарий, то, возможно, ты захотел вернуться, чтобы прочувствовать, когда тебе было хреново...

Не грузись, просто иди вперёд и верь в лучшее!
Cyberpunk 2077... is literally the single game that I won't ever stop playing... it became an integral part of my life, affected my character, taught me lessons, I just hope.... our world doesn't end that way.. 'Cuz it surely is going full sails ahead smoothly in that direction...
Эта музыка Never fade away постоянно вызывает у меня слезы в любом варианте, а темболее сюжет, что депрессивный, но реалистичный для обычного мира к сожалению... Игра шикарна во всем, ее недоценили изза багов, которые создали те самые фанаты, что не дали времени разработчикам, а попросили игру сразу, зная, что баги будут, а потом засрали, лицемерие Эту игру стоит вспоминать и ностальгировать, она наполнена кучей деталей
Other games have made me feel bad ass. Other games have made me feel sad. Other games have made me feel happy. No other game has made me feel death breathing down my neck while holding on to my loved ones for dear life. No other game has made me love and hate the world at the same time. The urge to leave, but the need to stay, or is it vise versa? Who's to say?
been looking for this version for so fucking long man. cdpr really fuckin nailed the emotion with this game idgaf about the bugs or missing features, the music, the story, no game's made me feel the way 2077 did.
@@glitch.cyberpunk I'm sorry😔 you can never be prepared for when it happens. I can't even think of opening cyberpunk for a long time. It's such an emotional game and I just wouldn't be able to take it rn... See ya in the major leagues 😭
Cyberpunk is literally the most emotional game i ever played. This game made me feel everything so hard, but the sad moments were the most hitting holy fuck
I have not experienced this ending yet, yet I can say it makes my eyes well up just thinking about my first playthrough. The game left me devastated, crying my soul out there in my room. As alone as V was.. right before the end. Judy left, Jackie left, Rogue left. And the only one left to die was me
To be honest, during the passage, I became so fucked with bugs that it felt like I was them. and did not see. Yes, cyberpunk was pissed off from head to toe BUT thanks to the soundtrack, graphics, mechanics, and story, I wanted to play and play it. Cyberpunk has become one of my favorite games in my library for me. "You're fucked, I'm fucked, that guy is fucked, the whole world is fucked" Johny Silverhand.
I completely lost it when this started playing. Thank you for uploading. Despite major hiccups, I consider this one of the best games I’ve ever played and I’m grateful for the experience. Now let’s start a new save. 🤘🏻
I'll be honest....this hits 100x harder than Edgerunners...because we are V/Johnny Silverhand...its our adventure in Night City not David's....that is why this hits harder than Edgerunners ❤
I'm so glad CDPR didn't cave under all the hate they got. After all the updates and clocking nearly 400 hours I can easily say this has to be one of my Top 5 favorite games of all time, up there with the likes of Red Dead 2. I love everything about this game, the only thing I hate is that I'll never be able to experience it for the first time all over again.
Bro real talk what have you been doing for 400 hours. I beat the main storyline and all the side quests in like 50 hours. Did all the side content in another 50. In total I got 100 hours in the game and there's nothing else to do
Every once in awhile I come back and let this place the guitar was just hitting too beautifully to not have it on replay with the ominous vocals in the background a true piece of music truly.
If i survive till the year 2077, i dont care why, how or how old I am, i will sit ontop of a skyscraper watch the city and just hear never fade away. Alone and just thinking about what ive done with my life and what the world has become. Then I would shed a last tear before going back down, because that would probably be the last moment in my life where i could just have a quiet thought by myself before I die.
A thing of beauty - I know... Will never fade away... What you did to me - I know... Said what you had to say... But a thing of beauty... Will never fade away!
I love the day to night transition in this. The bit of music that plays during the “day” part of the video is great…but there’s something about the “night” part. I love it.
I haven't had that nostalgic feeling of wonder and adventure since I played Skyrim. But Cyberpunk has revived it, there's just something in the world that makes it all feel far bigger and vast. The world is well fleshed out with thousands of people roaming the city with many quests and questlines to do yet people complain "what we do doesn't actually change anything" We'll is skyrim any different? That's the thing with RPG games they always tell you that your actions change the world but in reality the world changes us. We get absorbed into it we adapt and learn as we gain more knowledge of said world. But in the end of the day we never actually care about that it's truly the adventure that is most important not some mindless pay to win multiplayer where skins are more important than the game itself. No cyberpunk is different its alive and has a story which drives US forward just as we drive IT. May this masterpiece never fade away. Now wake the f### up samurai, you have a city to burn. Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.
It's nice to see people who appreciate CYBERPUNK as much as I do for a change. So many complain about its launch and a few glitches they're working out, but I've never played a game with such human bonding and emotional aspects. It was incredible how many countries they linked with it personally as well. The release was rushed, but they were literally getting death threats. I think the ones complaining are also just used to shoot 'em ups. Cyberpunk is deep and they missed that part. Some of us want more than to roam around killing NPC's.
Totally agree here! I experienced some bugs, but not near as much as I heard other people did. All of that aside, the things this game did right (story and music) were AMAZING, in my opinion. This wasn’t the ending I did on my first playthrough. (I did the Aldecaldo ending). There was one particular part of that ending that really resonated with me. I’m a healthcare worker and had had a particularly sh**y week. I completed that quest on my day off and when “Breathe Free” popped up on the screen…it was something I needed to see. This game nailed it with emotions.
@@JH-jj9zf It sure did. Too many people complain about tiny stuff and miss the big picture. It's like they all wanted to hate it and made every excuse possible to form their opinions around that hate. I think some just heard the hate and went into it with that expectation. It's nice to meet a fellow freethinker.✊
@@beeinthehive Totally agree. Do I think it could have been better? Absolutely I do. But even with the bugs, I’d put it near the top of my list. The soundtrack (both the background music like this one…as well as the radio stations) are an absolute favorite for sure. My take is that while they could have done better on some things (or many, depending on how you look at it), the things they did right, were RIGHT. I saw something about the soundtrack being nominated for best score awards. Well deserved in my opinion.
@@JH-jj9zf Right. They're fixing the bugs too, but that isn't good enough for them. Did you know that the creators were getting death threats because they were taking too long releasing it? I'd be in a hurry to release it too. I think they were going to do several things differently but we're worried. I agree, man. The best score ever. The best game ever, and that's including Skyrim. No game has ever made me tear up before Cyberpunk. It is definitely the best game ever to me.
it's been such a long time that a game got me to feel the feels this game did. it honestly triggers me when people complain about it being bad and all i can respond with is, did you play it!?!?
It got a bad combo of glitchy release, anti hype backlash, covid psychosis, and media fed hatred of the country of Poland which was tied with Trump lol needed another year in development at least...

I’d have lost it
I would never recover from that
Maybe someone should tweet this to CDPR's devs.
"Give yourself time. Ideas'll come. Life'll shake you, roll you, maybe embrace you. The music'll find you." - Johnny S
*Nods approvingly*
He says that to the kid at one of the endings right?
"Let's delta. Nothin' to see here after all."
"Worth comin' out all the same?"
"Absolutely. Thanks V. Of all the heads I coulda popped up in, hella glad it was yours."
Damn 🥺 that crushed me harder than Rebecca
Sit down, my friend. You already finished Cyberpunk 2077 and Netflix’s Cyberpunk: Edgerunner
It hurts 🥺
thx man, I needed this.. really....
Thank you my friend, i really needed it😞
There is still Phantom Liberty left😢
Thank you
Finished the game, johnny took v's body, he went to leave a memento for v, this song started playing and I burst into tears
Yeah, the story is golden in this game. People give it shit for being buggy, not being GTA VI and limited branching story options, yet I love it. Why? The story is convincing, instead of being another naive rehash of "you are the chosen one! go and stop evil". The world is atmospheric and characters well fleshed out. If I could change something is that you could invite NPCs on your other missions and just to cruise around the city. I hope this is a start of a new successful franchise.
@@definitelynotadam and also the soundtracks and radio music, which basically "multiply" the emotional effect of all the good parts of the game that you mentioned
Me too
@@definitelynotadam the thing is as well, people complained about the choices you make not changing the city but that's the point, it's a game that warns you about dystopian futures like this, the choices you make change what people in game think of you, not what the city becomes
Johnnys fight to keep you alive infected V and when he pushed you to try and save you it was what Johnny was feeling
This is as true as a Cyberpunk genre story can get...it's never truly perfect in the end...you're just trying to survive.
"It's not about saving the world....it's about saving yourself." -Mike Pondsmith
People like laymen gaming actually said that the story doesn't make you think by asking big questions that are common in the cyberpunk universe! I had to laugh 😂😂😂 at how stupid that sounds. They don't ask you they actually pose those questions you directly through the gameplay and the choice's you can make! Point is it's a dam good story regardless of how it launched.
@@tonytrident8874 I feel like people missed the whole point of the cyberpunk genre in general its supposed to be ambiguous the world building in general is based around society falling apart with criminals eking out survival in a dystopian nightmare its designed to make you question things in general. Honestly after watching altered carbon season 1 and blade runner as well as reading neuromancer this game hit all the right notes with the story and as you said from what mike pondsmith was saying its not about saving the world its about individual stories of saving oneself. If you knew when precisely you were going to die and there wasn't any escaping it what would you do? such an interesting question sacrifice yourself for an engram or live out your remaining life as a legend maybe not something you wanted but something you got from the whole journey. There are many other options at that point to its fun to see so many people miss those points by complaining about "side quests" being generic when they miss out on some of the more in depth missions that build and expand on characters and add more to night city.
@@thecornerho4472 ♾️ social credit 😁👍
This game to me despite not being able to save V for more then six months is probably the best representation of a story giving an ending that isn't one hundred percent cut and dry good or bad its not even a clean break either especially because with this ending in particular Silverhand hand points out he can never forget V because he's wearing there face sure he could change it but if he did that could be like burying V in some hole in the dirt just like how Silverhand was.
"Can't carry this around anymore. Can't keep wallowing, can't keep obsessing over what happened. Couldn't forget you anyway...I'm wearing your goddamn face..."
The night transition was cool AF.
Rest in peace, V.
Don’t care what other people say about this game. It’s so beautiful!

I’ve never felt such strong emotional connection to game characters, how I felt in Cyberpunk. Grave scene just ripped tears out of me. What an amazing game, even with all technical problems. One of the greatest story’s, that been told by a game... If only there were way to somehow save V, for real. Because of all I seen, 6 months is all you get, no matter what you’ve done. This fact is just left void in my soul after end credits. But maybe inevitable death have something with idea of “meaningful life...” ? Before anything else I found this message. This game, like nothing else, has got me thinking about last moments of life, about meaning of my actions and importance of goals I’m trying to achieve.
@Elipsis Good to see another Gibson fan. Did you read Count Zero?
you play cyberpunk so you will go to heaven !
Same. Not a lot of games leave me with a gut-wrenching sorrowful journey that colors my real world perspective. There's a loneliness to the world, even though you are surrounded by fascinating characters.
I'm pretty sure that panam ending has V live and recover somehow
Never thought of it that way.
CDPR knows how to play on your emotions.
*The game is shit. The story, however, is gold.*
@@kingaragornii9940 The game is fun, the story, moreover, is gold
@Lomborg just like you
@Lomborg i played the entire thing too ,you arrogant.
@Lomborg cause im sick of people trash talking bout me for cyberpunk being my favorite game so i do the reverse now.
I can feel the pain of this ending so much right now im just lack of words to explain it.
By the end of my first playthrough (nomad) I said I would destroy Arasaka. When all was said and done I sided with the sister, Johnny died, my mind was taken out, and for about an hour I really hated myself more than I ever had as a gamer.
Get the bad ending on Metro: Exodus (and don't look it up, you have to play the whole game and care) and it'll feel so real you can't even cry because it's beyond that. Profound emotion.
@@MrDeadSignal definitely going to check this out
@@changwufei5 To get that buildup and care for the characters you're going to have to take a slow crawl through Metro 2033: Redux, Metro: Last Light (Redux) and then Metro: Exodus
There's only one ending worse than that. They truly did a masterful job writing the endings. All of them.
The “Secure your Soul” Arasaka ending had me in shambles, the countless repetitive tests actually started to irritate I was sinking into V it felt unreal and real at the same time… truly it is a flawed work of art but a work of art nonetheless
I love this game.
I'm happy I pre-ordered it.
I wish CDPR luck on updating this game.
I'm happy that I bought this title, and do think the characters are awesome.
Same here man! I love this game, damn masterpiece!
Same man, I have so many good memories about it, when I started playing on 10th December, the long sleepless nights I spent playing it, the soundtrack, the characters, the city, the atmosphere
I wish I could forget everything about it and experience it again (but on a high end computer this time haha)
same best game ive ever played
@@pierrenoss4351 me too 🥺
They have been since and major improvements!
"The person you just, uh, visited... he die awhile ago?"
"Not that long ago."
"You miss him?"
"A little, yeah."
"When my grandpa died, I missed him a lot... But now I only miss him sometimes."
"Mhm..."
My grandpa died recently b4 I played this game and shitt that got me cause like how Radom right so I was like though thanks for the Nod
@@izaiahambridge9267 I'm so sorry for your loss, man. Strange thing is, my grandfather actually died the very same night that I got this ending for the first time. 😢 I knew he was gonna go that night, but when Steve said that line about his own grandpa, I was like "woah."
This game was all about going out as a legend, & I can say, with certainty that my grandfather certainly did, indeed (as did yours, I'm sure 😊). He was a great man, with a kind heart, a gentle soul, good sense of humour, & one helluva golfer - won the British Boy's Championship back in 1948! ⛳ I can only hope to be half the person he was.
I love you, grandad. See you in the Major Leagues, champ. 🍻🤝❤
U expected a good ending?
For people like us?
Wrong people,wrong city.
-the man who saved my life,
Johnny Silverhand
“promise me one thing asshole…you won’t forget me” i could really hear V’s pain in those words. she/he just wanted to be remembered, to matter.
"OOhh V..."
Thank you.. for everything..
"How could I forget you? I'm wearing your face."
Okay but who allowed this version to exist in such unbelievable beauty and heartbreak at the same time😭? I literally can’t with this version it breaks my heart and makes me nostalgic for even the things I didn’t live or experience
i felt the same when i listened to secure your soul ending theme.
It's A Thing Of Beauty, I Know.
I have never cried playing a game but when mama wells called v to have dinner i just burst into tears knowing v couldnt come
Idc what anybody says, forget the bad launch. Best/most emotional RPG I’ve played in awhile.
This song isn’t for people who lost things and it wasn’t their fault, it’s for people who lost things and recognizes it’s their fault and they can never go back to what they had before
He bought a grave for V, because no one bought a grave for him.
There is a grave for him, actually. Under his real name, Robert John Linder, in the columbarium. Rogue's doing, I think
Love this cover. Love this game. Even with all its problems!
Peace and Love from Cali
This game is 100 certified and IDGAF about the bugs and crashes coming from a PS4 user in Cali this game hit got some many things right....this game is what you call a uncut gem💯
Same guys. PS4 pro. Not as many but still plenty of problems. Still, this game, the soundtrack, the characters, I feel like I've been playing this game my whole life. It hits every heartstring.
Cyberpunk 2077 legit has one of the best gaming soundtracks of all time
Tbh this story is better than most movies today. Loved it and Keanu was incredible.
Cyberpunk is most definitely the best story I’ve ever played… it touched my soul
Cyberpunk has one of the best stories in gaming history to me.
I've done Red dead redemption 2 8 times, and before I played cyberpunk, I thought rdr had the best storyline. Now, I know, that storyline is a hundred times better in cyberpunk.
Was looking for this for a while. This version is so dope man. This is the penultimate choice for the best moment in the game. “You’re my friend V, and don’t you forget it” “never stop fighting “
Fell In love with this story and characters, the endings haunt me, I want a sequel/prequel and spin-offs
I've never been so emotionally invested in a game. My first run lasted 130 hours. I've never been able to start another one, because of the reminiscences I still feel from that first run. From the level The bells of Laguna bend, the game entered a whole new dimension. I was in Night city. This was no longer a game. And this will never fade away.
130? Tf were you doing I did all the major side quests, main quest line and like 70% of the side content in 60 hours
At this point right now im pretty sure that somewhere out there them cd project red devs are sitting, listening to this song thinking what could've been if... if they didn't launch that game when they did but instead delay it one more year.. i mean sure yeah that extra year would be hell because everyone would trash them for such a long delay, BUT... when the game would finally come out polished and just the way it is right now, not only people would forgive them that they had to wait that long but also the game would become the best game of the century right away... seriously no other game or movie made me feel the way this game did.. i never cared this much about any fictional character ever before.. i stopped playing it week ago and its still in my head.. truly a masterpiece.. really sad that it has this rough beginning and that it took me 2 years to finally give it a try....
Ah, V...
Can't keep wallowing...can't keep obsessing over what happened.
Couldn't forget you anyway...I'm wearing your goddamn face.
Thanks, V. For...heh...well, for everything.
I'm wiser now, and I don't intend to waste it, so this is goodbye.
*V*
*Dreamer*
That quote hits hard
Maybe with V's body Johnny could do more good in the world than V could do in 6 months if V kept the body.
Despite the bugs and glitches, the story itself is impeccable.
I started as corpo and ended up siding with the Aldecados. Didn't give Johnny my body.
I know Alt told me 6 months to live but if there's anything Silverhand taught corpo V was to never stop fighting and that's what my character did. Never stop fighting even in the face of inminent death and when you die, then die on your own terms.
Here lies Johnny Silverhand...
"The guy who saved my life"
"Night City Legend."
"Nightmare of Arasaka"
"The man who changed lives, took control into his hands. Who finally did what he wanted. Never Faded Away"
“Relentless Rockerboy”
"Here Lies Johnny Silverhand...."
"The Man who saved my Life."
The endings hit hard for me cause I can relate to V as a character. Now not on every level of course but in terms of personality, yeah, I have lost friends too, sometimes I feel hopeless but keep going, and I wonder what kind of memory I'll leave behind and etc. That's why I love V, hes such a relatable character to many. And really does remind you of the human condition and how fragile we really are. Sometimes you gotta look death in the face and spit, because no matter what, itll eventually catch up with you so make your time here worth it. Think about it, if you had 6 months to live, what would you do?
I'm still working on the game slowly but I recently turned 21 and this song is as bitter and somber as I can describe the city where I live in. Dear old L.A isn't too far gone as night city, it strips a human from all of their will and continues to swallow them whole. I finally understand why the quality of life here will never improve here, I hope to move away one day but I don't think I will never ever stop feeling empty. In memorial to all the V's who let their Johnny take over. Never fade away you guys.
Man this segment of the game was so emotional. It's literally gives emotional vibes like the games rdr2,tlou gave to people. I am sad that people missed out s great story because game performed poorly.
This played during moments of death and/or remembrance. V, Evelyn, johny every loss this was it's orchestra. this song is about inevitably, you can't control the stop of something that you never had control to start. How we can only prolong inevitable situation that we never asked for, think about it. No one asked tombe born but then we ask not to die despite death being something that faces everyone in the face. Coming to terms with loss of anything is difficult but this song shows that the only way to keep someone at our sides when they're gone is to remember them, this version of the is like remembering johny, eveyln, v. While they are gone the faint memory of them might be enough to keep them with us.
When this was playing during the Evelyn scene my V just was holding her on-screen for a good fifteen minutes before I could stop crying
"Tell me V, Quiet Life or Blaze of Glory?"
looks like in the end, it was the quiet life
Blaze Of Glory
In the end, everyone who took blaze of glory ended with absolutely nothing, whereas those whom choose quiet life(Lucy in Edgerunners, V if sided with Nomads, or Tower ending, or Johnny in this one) ended with something. Looks like it really was a quiet life in the end
One of the greatest Storys I've ever played and the memories will "never fade away"
I can't get enough of this song. I, like many people here have been touched by this games story. It's such a tragedy. From my experience playing Cyberpunk Red, (the tabletop roleplaying game), this games story is so fitting to the setting. There are almost never happy endings, just morbidly beautiful stories of the fight to survive.
There's an unexplainable fear and sadness to this version. Sort of makes you think about how unforgiving Night City is as an entity. Some people just aren't cut out for it.
"When we die we only become a memory"
V: Here ill write something for you.
*writes Johnny Silverhand on steel plate*
JS: its not the same..but thank you.
There are no heroes in Night City. Only Legends.
There are people who try and fuck do they try... but they never win.
The City pushes everyone to the edge and you either go out in a blaze of glory or live long enough to lose everything that matters.
The 'Good' Cops that don't die fighting corruption go crooked.
The Doctors and Nurses that don't break from the daily flood of rent metal, death, blood and guts just go private- their oaths forsaken unless you pay them to care.
The Rockers that take to the streets to fight corporate colonialism and maddening chaos- uniting people to seek a better future, they either die young or live to see their message lost, misinterpreted, ignored and forgotten.
Johnny did both in a way.
Went out in a Blaze of Glory and 55 years later his name scars the city streets; but nothing has changed. He changed nothing. The City scrugged him off and continued its freefall without him.
He is not a hero.
Heroes save the girl- not trap them in cyberspace.
Heroes kill the Evil Emperor- not watch them order their death.
Heroes make the world a better place- not make it worse.
Heroes are the kind of people who wouldn't sacrifice themselves for someone who didn't deserve a second chance... they won't be that stupid.
And that's what breaks Johnny.
He can think of a billion reasons why he shouldn't have been saved.
Why V should have taken their body back and let him fade away beyond the Blackwall.
All the reasons why he had absolutely no reason to come back after ruining so many lives.
But there he is.
Standing before the memorial of V.
The only friend they had left and the only hero Night City would ever know.
Cause there are no heroes in Night City.
Only Legends.

You're a lifesaver man, uploaded the few songs I was looking for, seems we have the same taste lol
Привет, чумба! А ты помнишь, как ты в детстве играл в разные игры? Было весело) Ты еще грустил по пустякам, было забавно даже...

Cyberpunk 2077... is literally the single game that I won't ever stop playing... it became an integral part of my life, affected my character, taught me lessons, I just hope.... our world doesn't end that way.. 'Cuz it surely is going full sails ahead smoothly in that direction...
Эта музыка Never fade away постоянно вызывает у меня слезы в любом варианте, а темболее сюжет, что депрессивный, но реалистичный для обычного мира к сожалению...
Игра шикарна во всем, ее недоценили изза багов, которые создали те самые фанаты, что не дали времени разработчикам, а попросили игру сразу, зная, что баги будут, а потом засрали, лицемерие
Эту игру стоит вспоминать и ностальгировать, она наполнена кучей деталей
Welp, just finished the DLC. Gotta sit down and have one
More mental breakdown
Other games have made me feel bad ass. Other games have made me feel sad. Other games have made me feel happy. No other game has made me feel death breathing down my neck while holding on to my loved ones for dear life. No other game has made me love and hate the world at the same time. The urge to leave, but the need to stay, or is it vise versa? Who's to say?
Damn, cyberpunk stories is such depressive. Cyberpunk 2077 and Cyberpunk Edgerunners😭💛
i think cyberpunk is the best game i’ve ever played i love it so much
been looking for this version for so fucking long man. cdpr really fuckin nailed the emotion with this game idgaf about the bugs or missing features, the music, the story, no game's made me feel the way 2077 did.

We need this on spotify , this also played during the oil field Section
Cyberpunk is literally the most emotional game i ever played. This game made me feel everything so hard, but the sad moments were the most hitting holy fuck
Night city legends never die, they go out in a way that gives that one spark of hope in a otherwise bleak dark and destopian future.
Honestly story in this game is phenomenal, never loved characters more than this
I have not experienced this ending yet, yet I can say it makes my eyes well up just thinking about my first playthrough. The game left me devastated, crying my soul out there in my room. As alone as V was.. right before the end. Judy left, Jackie left, Rogue left. And the only one left to die was me
What a truly pure form of sorrow, regret, and wistfulness this piece conveys.
My favorite ending. Johnny and V's relationship breaks me so much. Most beautiful thing about this game.
To be honest, during the passage, I became so fucked with bugs that it felt like I was them. and did not see. Yes, cyberpunk was pissed off from head to toe BUT thanks to the soundtrack, graphics, mechanics, and story, I wanted to play and play it. Cyberpunk has become one of my favorite games in my library for me. "You're fucked, I'm fucked, that guy is fucked, the whole world is fucked" Johny Silverhand.
Thanks for it, now i'm crying again... I love this game, same like RDR2 and TLOU (1,2)
That sound in the background of the guitar. That Like screeching sound… feels like a breath a fresh air while staring at the city.
I completely lost it when this started playing. Thank you for uploading. Despite major hiccups, I consider this one of the best games I’ve ever played and I’m grateful for the experience. Now let’s start a new save. 🤘🏻
I'll be honest....this hits 100x harder than Edgerunners...because we are V/Johnny Silverhand...its our adventure in Night City not David's....that is why this hits harder than Edgerunners ❤
I'm so glad CDPR didn't cave under all the hate they got. After all the updates and clocking nearly 400 hours I can easily say this has to be one of my Top 5 favorite games of all time, up there with the likes of Red Dead 2. I love everything about this game, the only thing I hate is that I'll never be able to experience it for the first time all over again.
Bro real talk what have you been doing for 400 hours. I beat the main storyline and all the side quests in like 50 hours. Did all the side content in another 50. In total I got 100 hours in the game and there's nothing else to do
Every once in awhile I come back and let this place the guitar was just hitting too beautifully to not have it on replay with the ominous vocals in the background a true piece of music truly.
This is amazing. And the edit, incredible! How simple actually, recording from day to night but still amazing!
If i survive till the year 2077, i dont care why, how or how old I am, i will sit ontop of a skyscraper watch the city and just hear never fade away. Alone and just thinking about what ive done with my life and what the world has become. Then I would shed a last tear before going back down, because that would probably be the last moment in my life where i could just have a quiet thought by myself before I die.
A thing of beauty - I know...
Will never fade away...
What you did to me - I know...
Said what you had to say...
But a thing of beauty...
Will never fade away!
if you didn't cry at the end of the cyberpunk, you're heartless bro.
this games story has gotta be one of the best. the closest i could compare it to was season 1 altered carbon it just was great
Altered Carbon was great and really had the same vibe.. even with its music.. there is no happy end in Caberpunk genres...
I love the day to night transition in this. The bit of music that plays during the “day” part of the video is great…but there’s something about the “night” part. I love it.
A Thing of beauty...
Will never fade away...
Honestly? I found this game be much better than the witcher 3
I remember listening to this in Evelyn's last scene in the bathroom. Kinda cool they took the time to tune the same melody for so many things.
I want this played at my own funeral.
" ahh V, I couldn't forget you, how could I ? I'm wearing your face "
Never stop fighting
I haven't had that nostalgic feeling of wonder and adventure since I played Skyrim. But Cyberpunk has revived it, there's just something in the world that makes it all feel far bigger and vast. The world is well fleshed out with thousands of people roaming the city with many quests and questlines to do yet people complain "what we do doesn't actually change anything"
We'll is skyrim any different?
That's the thing with RPG games they always tell you that your actions change the world but in reality the world changes us. We get absorbed into it we adapt and learn as we gain more knowledge of said world. But in the end of the day we never actually care about that it's truly the adventure that is most important not some mindless pay to win multiplayer where skins are more important than the game itself. No cyberpunk is different its alive and has a story which drives US forward just as we drive IT.
May this masterpiece never fade away. Now wake the f### up samurai, you have a city to burn.
Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.
It's nice to see people who appreciate CYBERPUNK as much as I do for a change. So many complain about its launch and a few glitches they're working out, but I've never played a game with such human bonding and emotional aspects. It was incredible how many countries they linked with it personally as well. The release was rushed, but they were literally getting death threats. I think the ones complaining are also just used to shoot 'em ups. Cyberpunk is deep and they missed that part. Some of us want more than to roam around killing NPC's.
Totally agree here! I experienced some bugs, but not near as much as I heard other people did. All of that aside, the things this game did right (story and music) were AMAZING, in my opinion. This wasn’t the ending I did on my first playthrough. (I did the Aldecaldo ending). There was one particular part of that ending that really resonated with me. I’m a healthcare worker and had had a particularly sh**y week. I completed that quest on my day off and when “Breathe Free” popped up on the screen…it was something I needed to see. This game nailed it with emotions.
@@JH-jj9zf It sure did. Too many people complain about tiny stuff and miss the big picture. It's like they all wanted to hate it and made every excuse possible to form their opinions around that hate. I think some just heard the hate and went into it with that expectation. It's nice to meet a fellow freethinker.✊
@@beeinthehive Totally agree. Do I think it could have been better? Absolutely I do. But even with the bugs, I’d put it near the top of my list. The soundtrack (both the background music like this one…as well as the radio stations) are an absolute favorite for sure.
My take is that while they could have done better on some things (or many, depending on how you look at it), the things they did right, were RIGHT. I saw something about the soundtrack being nominated for best score awards. Well deserved in my opinion.
@@JH-jj9zf Right. They're fixing the bugs too, but that isn't good enough for them. Did you know that the creators were getting death threats because they were taking too long releasing it? I'd be in a hurry to release it too. I think they were going to do several things differently but we're worried.
I agree, man. The best score ever. The best game ever, and that's including Skyrim. No game has ever made me tear up before Cyberpunk. It is definitely the best game ever to me.
this game... is something special to me bro
it's been such a long time that a game got me to feel the feels this game did.
it honestly triggers me when people complain about it being bad and all i can respond with is, did you play it!?!?
I feel this on a spiritual level.
Sad part is most of them don't even bother to finish the story. They don't even know.
It got a bad combo of glitchy release, anti hype backlash, covid psychosis, and media fed hatred of the country of Poland which was tied with Trump lol needed another year in development at least...
"V, I'm just... I'm just scared for ya."
