Ok, so interviewed in second language and then translated twice... i'm definitely not jumping into any conclusions here.

When were those? Last year? Then it's more likely to assume their stance changed than Kasia not knowing.
First off, it sounds like fake, hatery news.
Second, I doubt Keanu took all of their project money and now we only get one of each thing.
If it is true, it's extremely stupid. The first game I know with multiple apartments was GTA Vice City, in 2002, one of which was a huge drug mansion.
It would be super stupid to not be able to have multiple apartments, it's such an old feature and it's so easy to implement.

Translated once. Native speakers have confirmed.
Plus, she speaks excellent English. For reference:
i will search the interview video, I've just seen it yesteday, give me a few moments
This is what I'm thinking too. In RDR2 the economy was fundamentally broken to keep the story consistent. You were richer than god and the game treated you like you were poor because the story would have literally ended if it admitted that you'd made enough money to leave the country.
Geralt was similar. He'd make just enough money to upgrade his gear and his horse. It wasn't until the DLC that he got a single vineyard (of moderate size) and made himself a little home. This game is looking like it's gonna do the same thing. You're gonna be a mercenary but you won't ever get to be a "solo of fortune"
You're gonna start and end in the same place. No rags to riches story.
Is that upsetting? Will most people care? I don't know. Depends on what type of game you were looking to play.

We should get as many people to tweet to CDPR to get confirmation of this. I want a formal response from the company saying wether this is real or not. I'm tired of the fans speculating amongst themselves.
@Metropolice, can't find the video anymore, it was an interview with "Maciej Pietras" (Lead Cinematic Animator), it was about the scene system, buying property and such stuff.
We need OFFICAL clarification on this please!
@MilezZ, @Vattier, @Alicja.

And this was an interview from this year's E3? Gosh, fingers crossed. Although it would be strange if between the two of them the Art Director would be the one who doesn't know about multiple apartments.
@Mah-Tei, thats the problem, i really can't remember if the interview was from this year, still trying to find it
Then we have to go with the latest bit of information, as by default we have to assume that
a) they all know about vital info and wouldn't contradict themselves (even if it may be possible in theory)
b) notably older information is outdated.
If it isn't a recent statement, esp. from this E3, I doubt someone "got it wrong" and that they instead changed course. But then again all of this including my certainty about this being the case now is still speculation (even if the chance is slim), so additional dev replies have to either reinforce the statement or clarify in case of mistakes.
Still, my key point is: Makes little sense to pull up a (maybe notably older) statement in the light of a very recent one.
I predict in a few months (at the latest) we'll have moved on from this anyway and deal with it. It's not the end of the world, but it is a bummer.

While back then (and still) a lot of the game was a work in progress and subject to change I really do wonder why they supposedly scrapped this and "downgraded". 10 months ago it all seemed very certain. But alas, that was 10 months ago @article.
Hmm...

Is this what you guys are looking for?
"FANDOM: Will you be able to buy apartments in different districts of Night City?
Pietra: Absolutely. You will be able to buy a couple of apartments in different locations, so obviously upgrading yourself will push you towards a certain path in the game but saying any more would be too spoilery right now."

I am disappointed and curious about this news. The reasons are the same as others listed:
- For anyone to operate longer periods of time outside the law, one needs multiple safe houses. To not have them is illogical. What is illogical ingame is immersion breaking.
- As mentioned by others, one great reason for a character to have multiple apartments is to show progression in the world. Get money, rent/buy better apartment. This piece of news also makes me wonder about the length of the game and how much of it actually IS open world (once again) as opposed to short and strict main-story only, moving from scene to scene.
Even Adam Jensen, in Deus Ex which is VERY MUCH very strict, linear, singular story, has an apartment (granted, only one, but Jensen doesn't operate outside the law the way V does). In Vampire the masquerade: bloodlines which was released in poor shape, one player character could have up to 3 apartments during a single playthrough (Santa Monica, downtown apartment, clan-specific haven).
- If there exist hotels or something like that, those are not really that different from an apartment and I would find it strange if you couldn't use those either. I would have imagined that hotels would've been mentioned if using them was possible ingame. Apartment is just a base of operations...
But the way he talked about it made me wonder if he misunderstood the question.

No need to thanks bro, was my interest too...
Heh. In 2020 you don't typically have an apartment at all. It's even in the description of life in 2020. You live out of a bag and keep moving to the next job, away from the last set of enemies...
Never had one as a PC, only players of mine who've had them have been Corps or maybe Medtechs? Possibly?
