***** SPOILER ALERT *****
So, when we first meet Johnny were are teleported to the not to distant 2023 where he blows ARASAKA tower up, or tries to anyway. We see a young Rogue who appears to be around 20-25 and Johnny around 25-30 I assume. In 2077 Rogue, even with implants should be looking like Wakako. Same thing with Nancy and Kerry, even with his millions. In this universe do they purchase new bodies or something? Rogue is extremely stout as a 75-80yr old. Do the comics address this? I wish there was more back story on this. According to the Wiki she's been around as a character since 1997 in the book Firestorm Shockwave. I'm kinda new to this universe.
yes, they said he was reaching the limits of what science could do. I think everyone would look old at 150 though.She's not supposed to look 70. Rich and ressourceful people can get all kinds of treatment in CP. In the artbook it says Kerry had all his cells rejuvenated many times, I guess the same applies to Rogue, Hanako or the other members of Samurai.
I guess Saburô looks this old because he was old even before the new therapies had been developed..or he simply doesn't care.
They specificaly, on multiple occasions, and during loading screen say that rejuvenation and life extension tech is commonplace. Just expensive. Only rich can afford. And Rogue and Kerry are the Two Percenters. Thay can afford. That's why they look half the age they are. And they could probably look even younger.
Wakako looks the way she looks because she chooses to, or maybe she's 180ys old. Also there is a thing called Full Body Conversion. Adanm Smasher and Lizzie are the examples. But in the lore there are FBC that simulate and emulate a real body. Like the cyberlady from the trailer.
From my understanding her brain was put into a cybernetic body. At that time engrams were not available, I think. And I guess even if they were, the whole point of the game is that you need the Relic to put them into new body. And there's only one relic around. Still, CP lore is not exactly plothole proofI thought Lizzy Wizzy killed herself and then her engram was put into a chrome body? So is Lizzy Wizzy even alive or just a clone of her?
Lizzy has gone the full 9 yards and converted all her skin to chrome. Her questline involvesI thought Lizzy Wizzy killed herself and then her engram was put into a chrome body? So is Lizzy Wizzy even alive or just a clone of her?
And this make the 6 month plot cancer even more stupid. V could have done a Lizzy Wizzy.
She called once and told to stay tuned to the media (TV?), but I don't think anything appears. Supposedly another crazy stunt, but who knows.Yeah I played this questline all the way out. She calls you a few times more afterward depending on your choices.
And, much as I love Keanu, I wish they hadn't redesigned Johnny to look like him. I want 80s hair-metal Johnny!I'm sure that how Rogue and Kerry look can be justified somewhat, but I think it was more that after securing Keanu Reeves as Johnny Silverhand CDPR got obsessed with tying all the tabletop characters into the game and didn't give much of a shit as to how reasonable and sensical it would be to do so given the time past.
I read the intent on CP77 design was to upgrade a the genre from an 80's feel to a 90's feel. The concept art of Johnny looks more like Trent Reznor then Keanu, they just used his face for whatever reason - there a good few Trent Reznor easter eggs in both the music names for bands and some mission namesAnd, much as I love Keanu, I wish they hadn't redesigned Johnny to look like him.

Two words for you, dude: plastic surgery.
And comparing Rogue's appearance to Wakako's is ridiculous. Asian cultures place great respect upon their elders, so aging naturally is no surprise. Western cultures venerate youth, so Rogue getting plastic surgery or regenerative treatments to retain a youthful appearance is likewise a given.
