To everyone telling me I missed the new overall game ending on Reed’s path, I didn’t. I just don’t have too much to say about it and this video is long enough. There was only one thing I wanted to say about it but I want to keep that for a potential SIGNALIS video. You’ll see.

I very very VERY much dislike that ending, as it leans far to heavily on the bitter side of bittersweet, and honestly assassinates the character integrity of Panam and Kerry. But, the DLC did manage to solidify Don't Fear the Reaper + Temperance as my favorite ending, as the "save songbird" ending of phantom liberty resonated with me the strongest. Fighting as hard as you can just to realize that *you* cant get the good ending, but your friend can really speaks to me. Selfless V is my favorite character arc she can have.

​​​​​​​​​@@MrAceofspades627it's a perfect ending thematically though, similar to siding with the corpo path. You side with the nation state, turn good citizen, you get to live a clean, happy, boring, NPC life. Reed, like you, fit imperfectly with it, so much like a soldier returning from war battling PTSD. Committing atrocities for the naive belief in a nation (or even for personal gain, like college tuition or a fix for a brain virus) is never worth it, almost always a lie told to you to make you easily exploitable. For me it fit so well with the soul of the series and the cyberpunk genre in general - the cynical reality of individuals existing like lab rats under the control of powerful institutions, incapable of fighting for themselves in any meaningful way even when they see and know others are out there struggling to make the world a better place (here, Songbird - in real life, things like Extinction Rebellion and Resource Generation). Whether or not you choose NPC behavior in real life outside of the power fantasy of a game is always a conscious, ethical decision you're making every day. And the game, in a kind of meta-commentary, reflects that dichotomy perfectly with the final shot of V fading into the crowd, a nobody, really, no legend of Night City, a cog in the machine of the military industrial complex and corpo-capitalists, just some quantifiable pool of exploitable labor much like Vic.

In what part did she talked about her past? I must’ve missed but i would really like to hear about it 😢 suzi is such a great person and content creator, i would love to know more about her

Gotta disagree on the 'Moon ending.' It made me feel hopeful, that at least V helped another person in his/her position go be free. I was always suspicious of Reed's blind faith in his ideals and his bosses, and knew Song would never get a chance to be free/be herself if you betrayed her. I knew from the start Song's cure would only be one time use - it makes sense in a narrative way. But I still chose that ending and was glad I did. Also, Alex survives and resigns, goes free. The parallels with Cyberpunk Edgerunners and Lucy/David with V/Songbird really help. Get your girl to the moon!! But I really appreciate the horror playthrough of Cynosure. It got stale for me though, because there is really only one way to play through it. What I really love about it is the flashbacks in cyberspace. Tragic ending of killing So-mi may fit Cyberpunk better, but I'll take the hopeful ending.

This was a beautiful, emotional journey that you’ve taken us on, and I’m happy to see the passion you have for this experience, mirrored by the many fans that stuck with this game over the years.

I loved that ending. Best ending of the game. Previously I thought the devil ending was the best thematic ending. I really love the idea that the punk can get out without "selling out" or dying. Sometimes it feels like those are the only two choices. To be a punk oftentimes feels like signing a contract saying you'll die early or become a villain. V's escape from their life reminded me of a real person (perhaps it's poor taste to compare fiction to real life, but alas), Pat the Bunny. An anarchist folk-punk musician who got sober by going to rehab, stopped getting in legal trouble by cutting out his closest friends, wrote one final self-reflective album, and then retired from the punk scene. He got a standard job in a standard town and is happy. "since we'll all return to dirt, let's bring some stories for the worms"

After going through with pulling the cable on So-Mi to just let her have her peace. I called my best friend and gave him the biggest hug. Because his life's story parallel with what So-Mi went through minus the horror and guns. Thank you Suzi for this masterpiece of a review.

It's funny, in a way. There's such a thing as passive suicidal ideation. It doesn't suck per-se, but it also acts like somewhat of a plug and (in my case) was a symptom of different problems. But the human brain is hella weird, and the things that just make stuff click and lead to realizations are random in their nature and occurence. Hell, for me I was in the middle of disappointing Jesus when the thought occurred that "dying's kinda like all the games you are looking forward too, as well as future ones you'll like and won't even know being cancelled" and that kinda...made the concept click for me. I never really desired it as much, I don't fear it, still, but back then I was kinda just wanting to avoid this vague idea of "it'll make the people who like you pretty sad". And while that's good and all, living needs a selfish drive. Something that centers on YOU. Because otherwise you, like you said, just go through the motions of life , mainly for the sake of others. Is it goofy? Well yeah. But then life's about fun isn't it? And I think embracing just the bizarre silliness that can happen and swerve grim things around is good. I know at least one person who felt more comfortable about her PTSD after I shared what prompted me to have my only PTSD attack in my life. And make no mistake, it IS goofy.

I'll admit I can understand where you are coming from. Granted my ideation was more from a place of self loathing. In fact for several years I only lived for my family and our if a feeling that it was crueler to myself to live. For me it was a novel that fully pulled me out of that mindset and realize that my continuous self loathing was purely self centered. I'm not healthy by any means but I'm a lot better than I was.

The horror ending actually really made sense thematically for me Sort of made me remember Roy Barry’s famous ‘quite an experience to life in fear, isn’t it?’ Especially with So Mi experiencing all those moments in time with you right after it.

It's truly heartwarming to see people actually appreciating and enjoying this game. Whenever I bring up Cyberpunk 2077 to most people, their immediate reactions are usually "Oh? The game with Keanu Reeves and all the bugs?" Even before 2.0, on Xbox One nonetheless, I still loved the story. Especially with how relatable the environment is in comparison to the real world with everything being owned by a mega corp, corrupt politicians, police, etc. Don't even get me started on the music, because I listen to the soundtrack on the daily. But for me, 2.0 made a great game even better. I haven't played Phantom Liberty yet, but I'm looking forward to getting it soon. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for giving this game the recognition it deserves, choom.

It was so touching and emotional to me, hearing your own story in parallel to So-Mi. I lived through my own very dark time and came very close to pulling the eject lever. All I can offer you is a big virtual hug in support and thank you for still being with us. 🫂 So-Mi's suicide ending hit me very hard. In the end, I just wanted to hold her and give her a kiss to remind her of her humanity, before honoring her wish. It was an incredibly well written story. I think Cyberpunk 2077 will yet be remembered as one of the greatest games ever made. It has left me truly thinking about life.... and what it means to me.

It wasn't until a while ago, after (mostly) having an epiphany that helped me get over passive suicidal ideation that I understood why this "you are loved" thing is so prevalent in media relating to suicide. Because it's not a cure, yes, but it's that lifeline that keeps you trudging along until you find yourself one day arriving at a conclusion that just moves you past. That one thought that slowly lets you rebuild your drive to keep existing. And that's the best you can do when you don't know what to do. Like the boondocks said: "What do you do when you can't do nothing, and there's nothing you can do? You do what you can".

This video convinced me to play Cyberpunk, and now I'm kind of obsessed with it. I'm having a lot of fun.

With the whole Blackwall, it's always puzzled me if what Somi contacted was the Blackwall itself, or a rogue AI on the other side who used her as a breech into our world in a faustian bargain whenever Meyers ordered it. Either way, I loved that they dove into the AI with the expansion, they were one of my favorite things about the setting. How they were so alien and powerful, like new kinds of gods which were one of the few things that could stand up ro corps. How there would be good, bad, and neutral ones... and yet all of them were something to be feared. I hope the next game goes into this further. Maybe the blackwall falls and the next corporate war begins. Either could result in some real shaking up of the world.

Hey! I loved the Monk questline!!! I struggled a lot with violent tendencies earlier in my life and had to redefine life for myself to truly let it go. The monk quests felt like an affirmation of my new views and my journey to let go of my rage.

Loved all of this Suzie. Amazing work. Compelling interviews.

I've been really looking forward to when Woolie finally streams this one. It's so up his alley he doesn't even know yet.

That personal bit hit me like a truck emotionally, so happy you seem to be doing better now!

As someone who has struggled with suicide and depression, seeing the suicide ending part in this video legit brought me to tears because it just hits so different now than it did years ago. V might be the video game character that I can most relate too, and this game just hits different years later. Truly one of the best videogames of all-time, especially now. Edit: Finally beat Phantom Liberty after 9 months and did the King of Wands. Glad to see I got the best ending because I didn't feel like handing songbird over to continue to be a slave for the NUSA and the star ending to me will always be canon to me, so this ending doesn't upset that. That being said, I wanted to be the one to flatline Hansen. Also, shoutout to dev team adding a way to get missed iconic weapons. Still depressed and suicidal. Another thing, to me Stella was awkward/ the voice acting felt off, just sayin'. Lastly, my fem V may be down bad for River and Judy, she also looks forward to the day Aguilar finds her and they "meet".

Hey Choom, never stop fighting as Silverhand once said, they can’t hold us down forever eh?

Since the update, I've been baiting cops while doing gigs to draw out gang members, and it's been really useful at lower levels

I kinda want to give you a hug or at least offer you hypothetical condolences, because your character is the sister of another one that was featured in one of the most heartbreaking MVs I have ever seen, yes I am talking about Sasha from Let You Down.

And its actually Stella 😅

Not gonna lie, I screamed and giggled like a dork when I found Suzi in Cyberpunk. I'm not the only one right?

I didn't, but that is my new favorite side job in the game. Never stopped laughing.

I really appreciate how sincere and personal this video felt. It feels like so much of the world these days is insincere or selling you something, but this just feels like another human being sharing their thoughts and feelings on something they connected with, which is really refreshing. The quality in general is also great. I look forward to checking out the rest of your content!

Nice! Suzie is perfect for voice acting work. I hope that there will be more in the future. Getting access to the staff and Mike for this vid was awesome too. It's a professionally produced documentary! I think it's all well deserved for an awesome channel and the best is yet to come

Incredible work, Suzie. Your personal blend of humor and heart to heart mixed with unique analysis and trivia really resonated with me. This game resonates with me, you, and so many other fans in its unique theme of not giving up in the face of the world around you and within. I found your reliability to songbird and her story incredible moving and I'm sorry about what happened. i'm proud that you found the strength to keep fighting for your future. Keep up the good work.

I was waiting for your Phantom Liberty review, Suzi. Crazy you're in Cyberpunk now, but definitely deserved. Love the music video and your side question is one of my favorites as well.

This is a great video, but I also wanted to say something a little personal: From one survivor to another, you're doing absolutely wonderful! I always look forward to your videos.

That was some powerful stuff. You don''t gotta apologise for getting personal, if anything it just goes to show how much this game and it's story matters to you, and that's no small thing. If anything it was very brave of you to bring it up and be so open about it. I really related to a lot of it too. And, just like the message you gleaned from the story, you're still here, moving toward a brighter future that gets closer every day, and the world's better for it! You're a unique light of a person, we're glad you're here.

Great video! I never thought about how the story deeply reflects on people living with terminal diseases or how real the trauma of being a SW/living in a toxic life can impact people. I gotta go back in and play more of this!

I've watched the Let You Down video so.. so many times, but I do not remember the cuts you included at 3:10 where it looks like there's some violence happening. Am I crazy or slipping dimensions?

I was wondering the same thing. I never saw that animation clip before and I've lost count of how many times I've watched that music video. I'm left wondering if there is an extended cut of the music video out there.

Love you Suzi! My jaw dropped when I saw you in game. That was such a hilarious side quest. The fixer missions in PL are soo good. I wish every fixer mission had that amount of narrative weight and character moments.

I feel like calling the moon ending the bad ending is like pushing a thorn at the devs hearts i feel like both endings try their best to avoid feeling like the wrong choice and also any ending where Alex geta to stay alive is a good one in my books lol

I feel like with the moon ending it won’t be the type of fix that songbird thinks it will be in the end just the fact that during that ending you can see Mr. Blue Eyes there just watching your progress is foreboding

Sphere, I just want to say, your work here on youtube, is very well done, I think you put in so much effort for your content, from your cosplay sections, how you cover some of my personal fav games, I love watching your vids, whether I watch them as I do work, or on my off time, I always look forward to new uploads, very great work here! my heart goes out to CDPR devs for what they had to put up with, with this game. And to you for your personal experiences, I'm glad you're possibly doing better, great vid choom!

Every video gets better and better. I don’t mind waiting when you’re releasing absolute classics like these! Thanks for sharing, thanks for being here

Having heard your story before getting to that interaction made it even more impactful but also as someone that has family that you see being pulled down a path that isn't where they need to go it is heartening to hear someone that has dealt with it as well. Your influence goes beyond games and I enjoy the love you have for them as well as the cyberpunk genre in general

i really appreciate the different perspectives from everyone including you! cyberpunk really came a long way from its initial launch and i still also think to this day that its one those unique games that is out. even on launch there was a lot of things i saw that was good than some games. Night City itself is so beautiful and looking forward to what CDPR will cook up next for their sequel 😎

Just wanted you to know I've been following you forever, you're amazing and absolutely an inspiration as a trans woman, and you're literally the only reason I'm gonna get back into this game. I truly wish only the best for you, and I'm so glad you're doing so much better

I know I'm a few months late, but thank you so much for including your personal story about how you relate to So Mi's story. For my own reasons, So Mi's story resonated so much with me as well, but it's something I struggled to put into words, so hearing someone else talk this has helped me understand a little bit better what this game really means to me.

So cool you're in Cyberpunk! Also I loved the music video, it was truly amazing and I was so saddened that the main character died at the end and couldn't be in the series / game

I wasn't expecting to cry watching thise but here I am. That ending destroys me, if anyone is also struggling with existing seek for help, reach your friends and community. You matter ♥

Great job in your side quest, definitely one of the most memorable in the DLC if not the game.

This video is goddamn excellent. I love cyberpunk, thank you Suzie for all your hard work, and to everyone that worked on this absolute masterpiece!

what an awesome video, best of yours I've ever seen. I've watched a few dozen by now, and this one earned my sub.

Wait. I think saw some Let You Down animation that wasn't in the music video at 3:04. Is there an extended cut somewhere? Where can I watch the full thing?

I know they’re done with content updates after Phantom Liberty but it would be sick if they added in a third person mode like Capcom did with RE Village.

No apologies necessary for sharing about your own experiences. Being able to connect so strongly with a story is a truly wonderful thing.

I know it's parasocial as fuck but you letting us in a little bit makes the video hit that much harder. And once again I am in awe of the passion you bring to your videos. I'm so glad I found your channel at the start of 2020 and gotten to watch your channel grow. And cheers to the devs and Maximum Mike!

Hey Suzi - I've been watching your videos for years and literally had zero idea about your past or identity. As someone who is very much lost in a cycle of their own trauma, thank you for sharing. It's pretty inspiring to see through the other side of it. Cyberpunk has been a favourite of mine from day one - even through launch. Games that evoke this much emotion are truly special.

For what it's worth Suzie, I'm going through an emotionally hard time RN and your videos and your voice always makes me feel better. You're awesome and it's good to share our stories, thanks 🙏

Masterful work your best one yet. Congrats Suzie

while this is the game we should have gotten launch i have to give cd projekt red credit for fixing cyberpunk and making it the way it should have been. i'm having a blast with phantom liberty and cyberpunk2077 now

Patch 2.1 has been announced. Official list / release notes will be December 5th. Items mentioned : NCART Metro, Romance Hangouts, new vehicles/combat, and an upgraded Adam Smasher.

Thank you so much for all the effort you put into this project. It was immensely satisfying to watch. By far the best analysis into the story.

Thanks for giving the employee and staff perspectives. I really appreciate it.

Congratulations on the performance role in the expansion game. 😍🎉
