2077 Going A Rock N Roll route?

This quote from a 2077 IGN interview is interesting.

“There are lots of cyber games around, but there’s not a lot of punk in those games,” adds Mateusz. “We want to put more punk into ours. We do not want to make a dark and hopeless world. We are not doing Blade Runner. It will be full of rock and roll.”

This seems to be what their going for judging by this new bit of concept by Pawel Brudniak, a polish man who has worked on Witcher 3 according to portfolio.

It's a cool model, but no reason to think it's anything to do with CP77. He's a freelancer and doesn't work exclusively for CDPR. I think there was a discussion a few months ago about his work where the likely project was identified.

the artworks are great but as Dragon said its unclear which artist will work on CP........there are many great artists who have worked with CD.

Also does this mean i can also post artworks of artist who maybe work with CD on CP?...



I have these cool artworks from Maciej Rebisz, he is an polish artist who worked with CD on the CP teaser trailer

its concept art from a title called "Project Sunlight", dont you think those buildings would fit perfectly into Night City?

Yeah, those building concepts are great. Just how i imagined the slummier parts of NC. As for the characters, they're too theatrical for me.

Ok, ok, those guys have nailed what I want of a cyberpunk setting, I can die happy ♥
This game is gonna be so good, I can't even dare to think about it hahaha.

- “There are lots of cyber games around, but there’s not a lot of punk in those games,” adds Mateusz. “We want to put more punk into ours. We do not want to make a dark and hopeless world. We are not doing Blade Runner. It will be full of rock and roll.”

- “It’s about telling story via what happens, not cutscenes or other features,” Mateusz says. “To do that we need to create a totally new unique dialogue system – we’re doing that right now, it should be awesome.”

- “We will have several features that allow you to create your [visual] style, and your style will affect gameplay, storyline and relationships between characters,” explains creative director Sebastian Stepien. “Your appearance and your dress will change the behaviour of NPCs, and also the story also in some parts,” Mateusz adds. Style and appearance works together with the personality you create for your character and express in conversation to determine how the world reacts to you."

- "Cyberpunk 2077 will not be about conflict between the augmented and the police; that Deus Ex: Human Revolution-style societal tension over the morality and ethics of augmentation is not at the centre of the story."

- "But it won’t be a game about police hunting cyber-psychos. That’s a sub-plot… The story will be low-level. We are not going to save the world, or even save a city. We are focused on the main character and his problems, or her problems.”

- " Pen and paper mechanics have been the foundation of many digital RPGs over the years, but they do not translate well into the kind of game that CDP is trying to make. “The game mechanics are totally different on paper, they don’t work in video games because they would be super boring,” Mateusz says.
“The main problem is that the original system is based on dice rolls. When you think about Cyberpunk you think about shooting, action, a lot of explosions. But that doesn’t fit dice rolls in a video game. We want to make it more action-like – there will be a system that lets you use active skills actually in the gameplay in a shooting sequence or something like that, rather than just passive skills like in the books.”

- "“But also it’s important to still keep the mood and the original feel of Cyberpunk – we don’t want to just create a science-fiction game. It’s easy to do that. We still want to balance it with those main features and the mood from the Cyberpunk original. This is a huge task, I think.”

its concept art from a title called "Project Sunlight" maybe a code name for CP..............dont you think those buildings would fit perfectly into Night City?

The artist said it was for a personal project...

the stuff in the top post is actually a bit off putting to me, but that's probably because of the clowns more than anything. Take out the clown stuff and the top picture is actually a decent representation of something I could imagine being in the setting.

The lower images from Maciej Rebisz however are definitely how I imagine parts of Night City in my head. It's also how I imagined parts of Chiba in Neuromancer. I'd actually be a bit disappointed if there wasn't at least a street of markets and pubs and clubs and shops all decked out in neons and holograms.

There's no reason to think those images have anything to do with CP77. The artist is a freelancer who works on many projects.

The artist has already said these are part of a personal project, so nothing to do with CP77.

oh I understand that, just me putting pictures to places I read about in my head. I can imagine these being real in the game, even if there's no way in hell there's anything that looks like these in the game. just me really wishing we had more game info I guess :|

Quit crushing our dreams DB. I want NC to look like that.

Choice - crush you now, or have to put up with you complaining in a year's time when we get official artwork and it doesn't look like that?
No-brainer really.

And just think, if any of them DO turn out to be from CP77, how much fun you're going to have telling me I was wrong.

Crush them now AND crush them later, as well!

Filthy heretics.

Woop!

That's the idea. Because if anyone does complain in a year's time, we can say "But we did TELL you that!"
Win-win.
