They should add more "fear" type mechanics to gameplay, like exist through some of the quickhacking passives(which they need to fix). It would work so well with the flow of combat to have a mechanic where some weaker ads panic and either disengage combat temporarily or get debuffed by their crippling fear in some way.

[@rayanpazgalvez3153]

There's actually a "secret" fear status which levels depends on your street cred that make ennemies do slightly less damage, be more campy and miss lots of their bullets. You know it's the case when some1 says a line where he seems he's shitting his pants.

i think it will be really cool when they released ""cyberpunk 2"" and put V in the lore as the one and only living legend , your new characters hear tales of V from nomad to gangs to even corpo talking how V a pain in their eyes or a hero of the peoples. Also they can link 2 games together and depend on which ending you go for , you tales will be spread differently For example : if you go for the ""do not fear the reaper"" ending , people in the "afterlife'' can say that ''V, the only person that stick it to arasaka and live to tell the tale , rumor has it they are johny silverhand reincarnated''

Idk bout sass and spunk, but Male V has all the same lines and intimidation , betterso . Male V just makes sense , especially with all the trailers leading up to release being a Male & him sharing his body with johnny .

[@acetrigger1337]

Female V was always the more captivating character to see out-psycho literal criminals... She's a beast, And we as the players are the cage keeping her in check... but just barely.

[@LeoneYamada]

I feel like more of this could very easily be implimented with streetcred level... Like if your max streetcred the low level gonks just straight up say "im not paid enough for this shit" and run

[@rapoliente]

Vhen I look at V, I think of a lyrics by Black Sabbath... ‘nobody wants him. he just stares at the world.’

[@Umgijus]

lol that first couple dudes i killed before they even had that dialogue. Guess V is pretty scary

[@tfw8738]

Idk why people think v sounds cool here, when v makes threats like this it makes me think of a 16 year old coming up with a cool one liner to say to their parents. It just sounds cringe and weird

[@miguelcondadoolivar5149]

V can do exactly what they said.

[@tfw8738]

@@miguelcondadoolivar5149 doesn't make it any less cringe. i could say "i'm going to shit myself if you don't pay me 30$" but that probably won't convince anyone.

[@miguelcondadoolivar5149]

@@tfw8738 The thing is V is not threatening with doing nice things or something ridiculous as you said, V is really able to shred all these people to pieces in a matter of seconds if he so chooses. And it is well-known that it is within the realm of posdibility that they do it.

[@tfw8738]

@@miguelcondadoolivar5149 Okay? you still sound like a cartoon villain or and edgy teen going "oh yeah? well i can counter that AND he shreds all your guys, AND he is unblockable" it sounds CRINGE and you will not be able to tell me otherwise. I do not CARE if he can actually do the shit he says, it sounds CRINGE.

[@miguelcondadoolivar5149]

@@tfw8738 Threats are only cringe when they can't be backed up with action. For example, if some dude on the Internet threatens to choke you out on a video call, you'll probably laugh it off, but Darth Vader could do it, so the looming danger is there.

More games need to do this ( *coughcoughbethesdacoughcough* ) Hate when the player that has effortlessly slaughtered thousands of some of the toughest enemies has some wimpy pirate think they can take them out

[@greenagoo]

Always bugged me about fallout. "Yo, that guy just punched my friend once and he exploded into a thousand pieces, and then tactically removed my other friends head with a single well placed 10mm bullet. But I bet charging at them with this pool cue will work out well for me"

[@matthewrobertson5342]

Skyrim hey that guy kills and eats the souls of dragons and wearing dragon plate armor let's rob him with iron daggers

[@williammoutchia9292]

Nah, I like this. Getting free passes from everyone would get so old so fast. How do people not see this?

[@greenagoo]

@@williammoutchia9292 we just need tougher bandits

ngl the first guys in my last play through, i forgot they dont fight so i insta KOd them with sandy lol

[@aleksandar5323]

2:35 When I played through this, the guy pissed me off so much I started chopping these guys up, never made it to the end of the dialogue :D

[@D34THCL4WK1NG]

What’s it with Santo and all the gonks tryna mug V there?

[@williammoutchia9292]

It’s just a rough neighborhood tbh

[@sofabored2150]

I used my skill checks.

[@farrukhkamal2315]

Dammit. I should've chosen female V

[@lordwillshire1398]

I kinda wish these encounters only showed up once you had the ability to scare em off. I messed up and went in too early. They died in 3 milisecs of course but eh, it’s still beneath V

[@DumplinSawce]

There's this sort of show don't tell aspect that's missing in all this. I wish it wasn't so explicit. The direct threats feel a bit like V's overcompensating. I'd like it if the writing had more implication in the lines V delivered, but overall these bits are such a minor part of the game.

[@joshuathomasverghese1341]

That's.. amazingly accurate in my view. A bit subtlety and humor in the threats can add a real layer of dynamic professionalism but unfortunately we're in night city, we'd be lucky if most gonks could understand a 3 syllable word..

[@williammoutchia9292]

Exactly this. Going around bragging about how tough you are or what guns you have really isn’t gonna work on a lot of people

Does anyone know the song playing in the first scenario?
