Game company goes bankrupt? I backhand cyberpunk!

As time goes by, the National Day holiday has passed, and most people have returned to work, including Nanxing.

But there was nothing to do in Nanxing on the 8th. The whole company exuded a very depressed atmosphere. From the boss Feng Shuyun to the employees below, all Nanxing people were suffering from holiday syndrome.

Because everyone was paying attention to the results of 2077, Feng Shuyun simply took another half-day off. In the morning, he packed up and asked all employees to return to their posts. In the afternoon, they would act independently. Those who were willing to go home would go home, and those who were unwilling would go home. He just gets paid and plays games in the company, and his main job is to be a considerate employee.

A day later, after job adjustments, the employees' condition improved a lot.

And on October 9th, I don’t know if it was early morning or noon. On the Internet, the first batch of players to clear 2077 also appeared. The average time for the first batch of players to clear the level was about 104 hours. Since the release of game No. 2, By the time Game 9 is completed, the average time should be around 104 hours.

It can be said that these players who passed the game spent more than ten hours playing the game every day in exchange for the fastest speed pass.

This also shows to some players who have not yet entered the game how big the scale of 2077 is. If it takes 104 hours to even speed pass, then if you want to go through the entire branch process, oh, how many hours will it take?

And these players who had completed the speedrun also posted their clearance achievements on the forum, and at the same time began to express their dissatisfaction with the ending.

Before that, the forum was full of players who were looking for spoilers, because as the main story entered the middle stage, the darkness of Night City made many players breathless. In addition, with the National Day passing, most players could not enjoy the game. After getting up, the pressure of work and the dark plot in the game made many players give up the game one after another. They planned to play again when they have a vacation.

Otherwise, if you feel uncomfortable while playing, it will seriously affect your status at work the next day!

In 2077, if we want to talk about the most uncomfortable plots, the one that bears the brunt must be Jack's death.

This plot is the most uncomfortable for players. When you seriously push the main plot, usually at the 17th hour of the game, the plot will accompany you through various tasks and take a bullet to save you in the side plot. But the Mexican man who laughed and said it was a blessing from God died.

He died due to your carelessness and died under the Arasaka security guard who was trying to cover your retreat.

In the early stage, the player's attributes have not yet improved, and some branches are really difficult to fight. It is impossible to complete the task like Wushuang mowing the grass in the later stage, and it can easily lead to sudden death.

But Nanxing did not embarrass the players. 2077 is not a soul-based game. Lin Yuan will naturally not let players fight a boss for a long time. Therefore, if they want to pass branch lines and missions in the early stage, then bringing Jack is the best way.

Got a difficult task?

Just call your good brother Jack. He will help you unconditionally. Even if he is panting when you call late at night and there is a woman's voice over there, he will arrive as soon as possible. Beside you, there are people neatly dressed to help you.

Except for some hidden side quests, you can link up with Jack for most of the side quests and let Jack, the God of War, help you.

And this is also the best way for players to pass the mission in the early stages.

The online review for this is - How to become a qualified Jack driver!

And just like this, as the protagonist grows up all the way, and takes the protagonist, an unknown boy/wanderer/down-and-out corporate dog, to make a name for himself in the underworld of Night City little by little, his death really makes Most players are heartbroken.

Nan Xing adheres to his consistent style when issuing knives. He not only shows the scene of Jack's death, but also Jack's funeral and follow-up missions. You will always encounter people who say bad things about Jack or praise Jack. person or thing.

All the time, in some trivial matter, I tell you that your good brother died because of your operation.

Therefore, saving Jack has become the idea of ​​many players.

Jack is a true brother. He protects you like a big brother. He is the conscience of Night City. He is one of the few people who truly helps you unconditionally and treats you well.

Therefore, his death became a dissatisfaction for many players. Players began to ask how to save Jack one by one.

Because many players remember that in the original promotional video of 2077, Jack and V drank together, and along with the dialogue and plot, that happened after stealing the chip, so that ending must be a perfect ending!

Therefore, many players have begun to pursue the perfect ending. They hope that Speed ​​Runner can play more endings to let them see what a good ending looks like.

After all, they don't have more than a hundred hours to spend.

Unequivocally, more than 90% of the players thought the ending was too dark.

Becoming the strongest madman and burning down the Abandoned Tower was obviously a very exciting plot, but the ending made all players feel powerless.

Your good brother is dead and your wife has run away. Except for Mr. Victor who still remembers you, everyone else thinks you are sick and you only have two years left to live.

Such an ending is a damn good ending, right?

And the name of the ending is also called - The Nightmare Child

Damn it, I'm obviously the strongest psychopath in Night City, but why did I only have two years of life in the end? Extended from six months to two years? No, can those doctors save me? No way, get out Ah, is six hundred thousand euros a thing to me?”

Upstairs, my ending is the same as yours. How do you get out of a good ending? What a big deal this is.

How can I save Evelin? I feel like she is a poor person too.

Evelin is indeed quite pitiful. Although she is mentally retarded, she will not be treated like this.

What happened to Evelin was so dark. Oh, I can even imagine in my mind what kind of black Mewtwo those crazy people used her to shoot.

To put it bluntly, I kind of want to see it. Why not let the 18-year-old Mewtwo be allowed? It's already 2077 and the review is still so strict?

There is a Mewtwo that is okay. There is a merchant selling it on West Street. He only appears at night. There are some missing scenes in Mewtwo, but there is no love.

The floor is in chaos! Everyone is discussing the ending. Why did you start talking about sex?

The first batch of players to clear the level, in pursuit of the fastest way to clear the level, did fewer side tasks that could affect the main plot, so their endings were basically the same.

The second batch of players who completed the game appeared around 10 o'clock in the evening on the 9th. The game lasted more than 110 hours. They also posted their endings to the forum.

This time, there are two customs clearance endings.

The first one is an ending that is more complete than the plot of Nightmare Son that appeared in the morning, and also shows more of the dark side of the company. However, in this ending, V also completely betrayed everyone. He betrayed Johnny, Roger , Panan, Sol, he betrayed everyone who had helped him and supported him.

In order to survive, he cooperated with Arasaka and became a dog under Arasaka. This is also a unique ending for players who choose corporate dogs.

In this ending, V, who was fired from the company and merged into the streets of Night City, finally stood on the company's tower and became a member of the people at the bottom overlooking Night City.

V survived, but all the players despised this ending, and some even deleted the file directly, saying that the corporate dog ending was disgusting for players!

That's right, the name of the clearance achievement for this ending is - Company Dog.

We don’t want to die, but we don’t want to live like this!

The second one is a slightly better ending. In this ending, many people died, but V did not betray anyone. He did not betray Johnny. Johnny died, but V and Panan left Night City. , looking for life in the bad land.

In the last stage of his life, V completely looked away from everything and chose to embrace death in Panan's arms. The name of the completion achievement of this ending is - Eternal Star.

Once the two new endings were released on the night of the 9th, the popularity of cyberpunk has risen to the sky.

In the post bar, the cyberpunk bar has always been the top one, always at the top.

In the third ending, V led his friends to overthrow the Huangban Tower. Not only did he blow up the tower himself, but he also stole a bunch of prosthetic technology.

This ending is also the most relieving ending, because in the City of Night, people like David who can climb the Aban Tower are known as legends, and people like Silverhand who blow up the Aban Tower are even more legendary among legends. , then V, the guy who almost flipped the table and caused a world war, did something miraculous.

However, some players still feel that this ending is not perfect.

Because Johnny is dead.

Johnny, the arrogant, proud, bad-mouthed guy who habitually blamed others for his problems and never took the blame, died. His death made many players feel sad.

Jack is the person who stays with the players the longest in the early stage, but this long time is more than ten hours, but what about Johnny?

After the initial opening, Johnny has always been with the player.

Therefore, some people are beginning to wonder if there can be an ending in which Johnny survives.

On the 10th, the fourth ending comes out, and this ending is also familiar to most players.

Finally, a big boss has the ending to save Jack!

Damn it, I'm still reading to the middle stage, and it turns out that this ending requires a choice at the beginning!

Damn it, I beat this guy to death as soon as I came up. Why did he have such a bad mouth!

So there are still government troops in Night City?

If I had known this earlier, I would have taken a closer look at what he said.

The trigger condition for this ending is to complete a side mission. The side mission V will encounter a government soldier, and most players kill this person because this guy has such a bad mouth and talks too much. With disdain for V, this led to players raising their knives and giving them to him directly.

If he is not killed, the second side mission will be triggered in the follow-up. In this side mission, V will contact the government forces who are trying to return Night City to the country, and thus get the help of the government forces in the ending.

So in the incident of stealing the chip in Huangban Tower and escaping, when Jack and V were suffering and blocked, the government troops came to help V and Jack. Jack was seriously injured in the end and fell into a coma.

But is the ending of this line good or bad?

In this ending, V blows up the Wasteland Tower, saves Jack, and becomes a legend, but he also removes the chip, thus becoming a useless person who cannot wear a prosthetic body.

The ending seems happy, but in the world of 2077, wouldn’t a person who cannot wear a prosthetic body be a useless person?

This ending also made some players start to interpret it.

Some players believe that this ending is not good because V’s server has softened and the lovable thorniness in him has disappeared. He has given up everything just to survive and retire from the world. Such an ending is true. No, the rebellious spirit in cyberpunk is what players like.

Moreover, in this ending, the US government gives V a job. They seem to be helping V, but in fact, are they not spying on V? You must know that V is a legend in Night City. He answers every call on the road. He has a good mind and incredible combat power. So in order to prevent such a guy from getting out of control, the US government will do this, right?

This ending is both good and bad.

There are still many players who are dissatisfied.

And slowly, various forums began to look forward to new endings for new masters to clear the level.

Some players even began to race, loading files to play the new ending.

The following users of 2077 Tieba also exceeded two million, making it one of the most popular bars. In Tieba, millions of players are also eagerly looking forward to the new ending.

But this time, until the twelfth day, a new ending was played.

The name of the ending is - Turn my remaining body into fire.

The ending was typed by Xiaoba. He used thousands of words to describe the ending. The final summary was - it was so damn exciting!

Generally speaking, this ending is an ending where no one survives. In this ending, almost everyone died, and V and Johnny also died together, directly dead.

The triggering conditions for this ending are extremely harsh. If you don’t read the plot carefully, it is an ending that cannot be triggered at all.

Because the triggering conditions for this ending are firstly, V must contact the government forces, secondly, contact with the wanderer family in the bad land, and thirdly, having legendary street reputation, the side tasks that need to be done are huge and long. Xiaoba also posted its own game time - 156 hours.

That's right, it's longer than the previous endings, and he wrote it with almost no sleep.

After completing the prerequisites, if you choose not to cooperate with Takemura, but target Takemura, you will gain the favor of Arasaka Yorinobu and start helping Yorinobu, and the player will start from here I learned about the great ambition of this second generation ancestor Yori Xuan.

Johnny even complained in V's mind - If he knew that I had such a status as a fan, why would I be a rock singer? Just think of him as a horse boy.

In this ending, with the help of Yorinobu, V not only blew up the Arasaka Tower, but also destroyed Arasaka's technology, inflicting severe damage to Saburo Arasaka. Military technology was also affected. Faced with this situation, governments of various countries... Move quickly to try to overpower the forces shrinking the company.

But in the end, Yori Xuan failed.

The company was not really harmed by this, they were just bitten off a piece of meat, and three people died together, V and Johnny Yornobu, both died, they died under the counterattack of the company dogs.

Half of Night City was destroyed as a result, but in the ruins of Night City's rebirth, in a movie-level scene, a very young homeless orphan wearing sunglasses was rummaging through the ruins looking for valuables. When we arrived at the chip that was half buried in the dust, it was shining with silver light.

Since then, the cyberpunk game has ended.

Because there are only a few ending achievements to unlock, this is the last ending, at least the last ending of this version of 2077.

As soon as this ending was released, all players were excited.

do you died?

died.

But, it’s cool!

Those who have played and seen this are all players who know what kind of world cyberpunk is. Seeing that V almost overthrew Arasaka by himself, the pleasure is indescribable. of.

And the subsequent scene even aroused players' endless reverie.

Players are too familiar with that chip!

Isn't that the home of that bastard Johnny?

So, Nan Xing wants to tell the players that in the final ending, did Johnny, or V, survive?

Are you living in that chip?

As for why the chip has not been destroyed and whether it can still be used, players do not think about this issue.

But after enjoying the game, players began to think about the ending.

After linking up with the various endings, players have discovered that throughout the entire story of Cyberpunk, except for the early stage and Jack's hard work, the rest of the stages are depressing and dark, and even the good endings reveal a sense of powerlessness.

The entire cyberpunk world is declaring one thing. The system of this world has been stabilized. Ordinary people are just ants. It doesn’t matter whether they live or die. Otherwise, they will become corporate dogs, prey on the weak, pursue status, and live in the world. This is not a human world.

But even so, Nanxing makes players the only variable in this solid system.

V failed to overthrow the company's rule because he was just one person. Even with Yorinobu's help, he failed because this world is a curse and this shackles cannot be broken at all.

But. Even so, even so!

Don't give up hope either,

V’s story will spread, spread all over the world, and reach the hearts of those who have ideals.

In the tiny dust particles in a big city like a steel monster eating people

The flame of hope has been planted,

It will reignite again, and then completely burn this rotten world.

Rebellion in despair, this,

That's the punk spirit.
