Cyberpunk 2077 dev claims the game doesn’t go for happy endings due to ‘genre rules,’ but the problem is really, as always, capitalism
There isn’t any particularly good ending in Cyberpunk 2077, and the addition of Phantom Liberty at the end of September this year didn’t change that. Whichever path you go, there will always be some downsides to, and one of the game’s writers explained why.
Magda Zych, CD Projekt Red’s senior writer, talked with gamingbolt on Nov. 27 about the company’s approach to the game’s story, specifically to its endings. She claimed the reason why Cyberpunk 2077 or its newest DLC Phantom Liberty lack good endings is because of the “genre rules,” though, it makes the experience even more real.
