[@davidosuna6411]

already had the 6 months lol, sad that Sony games aren't added

[@franciscoaguirre96]

brother, i clicked on this video for new easter eggs related to the DLC but you literally placed the oldest easter egg of the game right after your sell out segment.

[@KingFluffs]

Lmao £20 a month for 8 hour session lengths and NVIDIA having access to your accounts. Yeah hard pass.

[@davidosuna6411]

@@KingFluffs That's fine, although the price does drop if you buy 6-months. Wish they had a 12 month sub lol.

[@MrHidePatten]

Did always love the detail how V is dumbfounded by how to use the old phone, so Johnny gives them a hint.

[@WiseFish]

I mean tbf yeah V probably wouldn’t have a clue at all how they worked lol it was a great moment and the “uh huh” made me laugh

[@arthuralford]

Dial 80085 and see what happens :P

[@zgmfx-09a]

Considering every world that ciri visited had her visitation documented either through the "lady of the lake" myth, or once in a newspaper about a crazy guy seeing a lady and a unicorn, maybe the witcher is cyberpunks variant of this myth

[@mrlucky9157]

Ciri was NEVER in Cyberpunk 2077 universe !! It was just a nod to their upcoming game. I don't know why some people take such things seriously. CDPR cares about their lores and existence of magic in Cyberpunk 2077 universe is quite lorebreaking.

[@vxpdx]

"magic is just misunderstood technology"

[@zgmfx-09a]

@@vxpdx Hey when we discover magic irl it will most likely be used in scientific means

[@gsoma4022]

I remember playing Death Stranding and getting an email from Jackie form the afterlife i got ao hype. Then seeing the B.B in the government area got same hype

[@WiseFish]

You get an email from Jackie in Death Stranding?! Oh that’s cool!

[@11DrinkEnergy]

The hommage to ken block in this game is the best i guess easter egg/secret there ever was in any game ever, i mean holy damn, if the name "Hoon" doesnt make u spark up after seeing it for the first time, and the iconic 43 racing number, just a masterpiece.

[@Toadaboticus]

I waited so long for a Johnny Mnemonic easter egg Given its a Keanu Reeves Movie and Cyberpunk owes the author William Gibson for Creating the Genre with Burning chrome,Neuromancer and its Sequels.

[@NexusEagle]

I bought an apartment in Japantown and when I read the computer’s email, a Mongol technoshaman is fleeing his pursuers which references Altered Carbon, another cyberpunk medium

[@supermario9520]

19:47 it is not only a Die hard reference, also one to Dirty Harry. Henry Callahan is a reference to Clint Eastwood's main character of the movies Harry Callahan.

[@Fiat_Lux_23]

Came here to say the same thing. I cannot believe he caught McClane yet missed the obvious Dirty Harry reference.

[@geraldmaxfol2959]

In a point, if you return to V's apartment in megabuilding H10 you would see a shard called Greetings from Des Moines and says: "Jump in the urinal and stand on your head. I'm the one that's alive. You're all dead". It's a reference from the novel Ubik by Phillip K. Dick. In the mission 'The Ballad of Buck Ravers', the bar Rainbow Cadenza, where Samurai performed a concert, is the title of a novel with the same name. The novel is about a woman who is a musician and artist, and about sexual servitude in a libertarian future.

[@CreamyNic2]

des moines is also an area in red dead redemption 2

[@killmonger5097]

Loved all the Witcher Easter eggs there’s also one in the killing moon mission about Yennefer’s death and Geralt spreading her ashes

[@davidbuckley1242]

Missed that Misty is an homage to Trish from Blade Runner

[@pedrooscar1890]

Pris. Her name was Pris. Syd Mead the late wonderful designer and Artist that worked on Blade Runner and many car companies prior is conmemorated in it. As well as Roy Batty actor Rutger Hauer who sadly passed away 2019. The hotel where the Vodoo Boys opperate is called Batty's Hotel, a mix between Roy Batty and Bates Motel. Sapper Mortons farm is is biotechnica as well.

[@sorenrakkaen8611]

I found the spectre kid’s body in Pacifica not to far from the chapel fast travel (Spectre Kid was the same netrunner mentioned in the gig Wakado sends you on to find a netrunner) And in the Bloody Ritual Cyberpsycho fight right before you can see a lady almost like Johnny and Songbird sitting on a ledge before she flickers and disappears. Amazing what kind of stuff you see if you actually look and enjoy the world.

[@Carstuff111]

The three sea shells.... I saw that from the start as I looked around the room and I laughed so very, very hard!

[@michaelsykes911]

You guys probably noticed too but the employee number at the beginning of the corpo intro says NC770416, which is referencing the original game release date announced at E3 2019 (16 April 2020)

[@Lasercatss]

I Loved The demolition man reference - was a favourite movie as a young man, I wish we got a Wesley snipes character too.

[@TheYoyocandy]

Actually, there is a reference to a character Wesley Snipes played known as "Blade". You can find it in Dogtown with a cyberpsycho version of his chracter in a rave club.

[@Lasercatss]

@@TheYoyocandy Oh sick. Hell yeh. I actually just bought Phantom Liberty - so I haven’t actually payed anything in dogtown yet.

[@charlielee5906]

There is a also an Easter egg in phantom liberty, there is an NPC called qian si hu which has a very sad story behind it

[@zgmfx-09a]

There's somewhat of a gundam reference in the "The Struggle of O'Neill Station" shard, though it's hard to say if it's a coincidence or a reccuring sci fi plot line

[@Quasimodo-mq8tw]

Just realised. The Fallout Reference: To bodies outside the Vault door. The Body of the first Vaultdweler that got send out...and the player that didnt survive the encounter with the rats.😅

[@buddyboiwrath488]

23:34 on the topic of pyramid song thats the name of one of the lasts quests in judys questline! the one where you help her explore her old town that was underwater

[@The-Great-Bukini]

Theres actually a Terminator 2 reference in the game aswell, youll have to look it up though cause i dont know exactly where it is and as of writing this im too lazy to find put it here.

[@dalamar5502]

You missed the room in the Arasaka Tower memorial with if I remember right has the names of those who worked on the game

[@matthewneuendorf5763]

The other VR cop name is a Dirty Harry reference.

[@arthuralford]

If CDPR was inserting The Wire references, why didn't they put any of Stringer Bell's? Idris Elba played Stringer; it would have been obvious

[@DarkSideOfTheBrightSide]

Facts!

[@LuisSantos-iz9ed]

Thanks for the video!

[@MrWinthrup]

Haven't finished the video yet, but just got past the part where you talk about the River Ward Die Hard reference. You didn't immediately mention the other Die Hard reference where there's a body found in a vent and a note mentioning "Getting Hans" or something.

[@Jenna_Talia]

The pose Roach often adopts where her hind legs are raised is a reference to a bug where Roach would run like that in-game. The Barghest gang is likely also a witcher reference given their neon green colouring, which is how barghests are depicted in The Witcher.

[@phaylnx]

A few things of note. There is also a Witcher reference in the Street Kid into, with the car you're sent to steal being a RAYFIELD AERONDIGHT. The Indiana Jones reference is also a Fallout: New Vegas reference. If you have the Wacky Wasteland perk, you will find a corpse in a fridge in the side of the road as you leave Goodsprings. You even get to loot the hat.

[@andrewking6173]

The motorcycle brand "Arch" is a real life motorcycle brand started by Keanu Reeves

[@bodyshoplaboratories501]

There is a Harry Callahan reference there too from the Dirty Harry films.

[@77chance]

Fun video, makes me want to play through again 😆

[@robertaddy8326]

For the ‘Batmobile’, I’d say it was less inspired by the 2018 Batman movie and more based off the original Batmobile from the early 2000’s, ‘The Batman’.

[@alpharius365]

It wasn't always Biggs and Wedge in Final Fantasy. It was Vicks and Wedge in FF3. Changed to Biggs and Wedge in later games.

[@pedrooscar1890]

Johnny Mnemonic fights a chinese hitman that has a Monowire in the movie. Thats where the weapon is from

[@fightronin3753]

Great video!!!! Keep up the great work choom!!!!!

[@Lost_Signal2081]

there's one if you refuse to kill Jack Mausser during the inconvient killer gig he'll flee to dogtown where you can find him at a house watching a BD and then kill him and get a gold X10 Power Pistol and also during my previous playthroughs i found a Poison Ivy reference above the Ripperdoc Shop also last night i found a refernce to the Mothman Cryptid as you enter the longshore stacks there's a sign ( i reccomend going at night) saying "The Mothman Is Watching You" but only the letter M is lighted and the other letters have it burned out

[@anthonyfrench3169]

I'm very lazy and wouldn't bother searching these. But I'm super happy that you took the time to discuss these Easter Eggs. Thanks mate!!

[@Budbud9399]

My favorite Easter egg is of akira. You can buy and own Kaneda's bike. There's also a reference to Demon Slayer. in the reflexes skill tree you can get an ability called flash and thunderclap wich has you leap at an enemy with your sword. Zenitsu's main attack is thunderclap and flash where he launches at an enemy at high speeds.

[@cerberus9832]

I use geforce now as well and playing rtx games on a laptop in the train or something just hits different

[@ZanyHyena]

Ok I don’t know how to explain this, but I literally was searching for a video like this earlier today because I am replaying Phantom Liberty. Just glad it was my fave creator who made a video like this 😳

[@jamesrobinson5123]

Milfguard is a pretty good Witcher reference too

[@ilaril]

Actually now you've given me a reason to get the steamdeck or rog ally. That with nvidias cloud gaming could really be what I need so I don't have to take my computer with me when relocating myself for few weeks.

[@lyianx]

I know you're on Fallout content now, but i like your CP lore vids. I was hoping to see one on the Afterlife. Given its a "legendary" bar and all, there's gotta be some good lore behind it. Who's run it (and how they came to run it), famous merc's that've had drinks named after them (and maybe a quick tidbit about how), jobs that came from it, ect.. You're lore vids are easier to digest the CP lore for me than trying to read though the CP-R books lol.

[@benleitzel4658]

Space Oddity has a big It's Always Sunny Easter egg

[@richmugen]

you should do lore videos on death stranding it’s such an interesting game which may help you also make some theories on how cyberpunk is actually a really meta game & how all things are connected.

[@millzy7141]

Need to add a “Nvidia GeForce NOW” counter after that barrage 😅

[@sherijobe9754]

I'm an artist which I use pencil or paint and my oldest son is one in the gaming world. I love seeing how games have evolved since I'm old enough to have played pong and later games in arcades . I was the one to get my boys interested in playing video games. When I couldn't use my hands I would see the patterns a tell my sons and their friends. Maybe someday I will be able to enjoy playing them again.

[@aslitatti]

There's a reference to Scorpion from Mortal Kombat as well, you missed that one

[@ninatiels]

Henry Callahan. Or more likely harry. Dirty Harry. Old Clint Eastwood.

[@imnonene]

Oh great, how long did you have to queue for the game though

[@villings]

gotta reference the wire when you got stringer bell in your dlc

[@callanbarclay1248]

Out of all the Easter eggs which one is your favourite?

[@ginx2666]

The entire Ciri questline got cut from C2077 among others, just for the game to be released without delays (we know how it had ended).

[@mrlucky9157]

Stop spreading bulls**t because some d*mb people will believe it. Ciri was never meant to be in Cyberpunk 2077 universe. Magic in Cyberpunk would be lorebreaking and CDPR cares quite a lot about their lores.

[@rankovasek1987]

18:17 - NOT BUTCHERED AT ALL

[@oleg-bd3xs]

There's also an easter egg to a soviet band called Kino on a tower in the oil fields, which is a graffiti that reads "Цой Жив"

[@Stupidfreakbtch]

It’s good to see how much love Keanu got in this game, from the references to previous works, his own bike brand being in the game, and also just memes of him. He really makes this game as Johnny and it’s nice to see how much it seems that CDPR loves him.

[@topcat59]

Cool vid bro.😺

[@luizribeiro2716]

Noooo you missed The here's Johnny from The Ride with panam

[@DarkSideOfTheBrightSide]

I got Geoforce on my gaming laptop.. it’s really good, no joke- but, I’m sure there’s PC gamers that know better than I, because I’m very new to it all. I just learned how to install mods, so let that speak on my level of knowledge. 😂

[@Carstuff111]

Also, this game.....The Witcher 3, especially after the upgrades, had me in awe. Then, I got this game. And CDPR has done a spectacularly at pulling every single emotion out of me in both games. I have spent time in both games just admiring the beauty, or running random side quests to power level, crying, laughing, being blown away by the main story as well..... CDPR has created two masterpieces from a masterpiece of book writing, and a table top RPG. Constantine, and now Johnny Silverhand, to me my favorite characters to date from Mr. Reeves. As well as Solomon Reed has become one of my favorite characters played by Idris Elba.

[@EzioZ]

The scorpion reference was pretty dead on too

[@jiimmycakes2341]

You gotta do a lore video on V!!

[@BerserkxELF943]

Overwatch references are conjecture. Over Watch is a military term that designated marksman frequently do. Widow maker is the Winchester 1911 which that weapon in game replicates, shotgun sniper. And BRUH, you need to watch Johnny Mnemonic, you missed a shit ton of these references. You also missed all the Escape from New York reference with phantom liberty.

[@bodyshoplaboratories501]

As of 2024, cp2077 is still a broken toy. I still can't understand all the praise for fixing some of its problems that never should have seen the light of day in the first place. Ooh, ah, they nerfed the players and fixed some of the bugs! Lol.

[@ZYLAZYLOC]

GeForce ad is a fucking scam wtf

[@clayheinzerling1852]

How dare you call Wedge Antilles, Red motherfucking One, a "wingman of Luke Skywalker"

[@shaunitai]
