Yoga, QiGong, Meditation, and Massage places in CyberPunk2077?

[fridgeband]

In the 50 minute gameplay reveal, we see Jackie resting and meditating while receiving spiritual advice from a "zen" type shop owner before V gives Jackie a chip with some mission/quest details on it. There was also meditating in The Witcher 3, so I'm kind of interested if anything similar (but less frustrating and annoying and forced) will be in CyberPunk2077? It would also be cool if V could choose to be Vegan (haha, accidental pun. V-gan) and possibly find a crowd of people in public doing a large public Yoga session, or even QiGong to get some kind of buffs or improve certain skills, maybe like dexterity or some other stat or combinations of stats, similar to the shooting range and robot boxing? Another interesting thought I had, since CyberPunk2077 is such a dangerous environment, could there also be massage places? Like V pays and goes in and it's just a mystery if it's a safe and reputable place or if it's much different than it appears on the surface? It could be really awkward and funny, or maybe even scary if V walks in and thinks everything is okay, but then the person says or does something that suggests that things are NOT okay "", and the player has the option to make V stand up and grab their towel in front of them and scream "WHOA WHOA WHOAAA!!!!! What are you doing!!!!?" and possibly just run outside and get dressed in the street from pure panic. Just seems like the type of thing that would totally happen in that kind of world. I hope CDPR does this!

Wither 3: meditating at will to prep for the fight = frustrating and annoying
CP2077: finding random Yoga sessions scattered all over city to temporarily buff your skills = awesome

No I mean to train a stat, I guess more so than a temp boost, maybe I should have worded that better. Sorry. I don't like temporary skill buffs, but I DO like permanent stat/skill increases if I do something enough. I appreciate that a lot. I want it to be more of an optional and nice enjoyable thing that can be done just because I feel like it, rather than something that punishes the player by wearing off, and forcing me to do it over and over. I want to do robot boxing, shooting range, meditation/yoga/qigong because it fits into the game canon, my head canon, and just feels fun and right to do, and even realistic by the standards of what I feel like my character would want to do. So I want it to be totally optional, but when I do those things, I want to be permanently rewarded with a stat/skill increase that I get to keep for my whole game, with no loss over time. I hope this helps.

i don't think the game is trying to be an immersive sim or Skyrim/GTA, so probably not.

But Hoplite, it's an RPG...

This isnt GTA. Yoga, meditation, etc doesnt fit the themes that Cyberpunk conveys.

I think it's safe to say you can get acupuncture from Misty

Of course there will be massage parlours. This is NC. But like all such places, a happy ending is extra.

your funny - this is cyberpunk - happy ending means you got home with only slightly more holes than you started & enough eddies to pay the ripper

but then what do i know, haven´t played the game yet ^^

I can say with full truthfulness and honesty that I don't feel that yoga or meditation ever fit into GTA to begin with, but I could really feel it groove with the canon of CyberPunk2077 if it was something people did as a very common theme where they are trying to reconnect with themselves and get grounded, which has both a spiritual and very electrical double meaning

Really? Cyberpunk is very Fashionable, usually people who likes Fashion likes to go to gym, massage, take fake tan etc. Eat all kind of super foods and such.

Massages with happy ending? Porn Shops with cabins has more Cyberpunk vibe to me.

I'm giving lots of posts like +1 , but I'm still creeped out, you know? Lol. (and Yes, it technically does fit the vibe/canon/theme)

Its dystopia, if Cyberpunkers have accepted Porn, it means they have gone too far, but thats expected for dystopian world. Massages with happy endings doesnt sound right to me.

I'm not trying to say that, please read all my posts again. Peace.

Perhaps, but you're still going to pay extra.

Sure. In the elite districts where people can throw away money. But most people couldn't afford to do that stuff. Food is scarce in this world as well. Most of it is vat grown.

At least it doesn't need pesticides right?

Poor people wank, thats why there should be Porn Shops. Ive seen in some cities Porn Shops with cabins, where people watch porn and wank. It may sound like fun but its what is it for poor people. I would imagine wealthy "elite" people of NIght City bang some real hotties.

Also Porn is great way to add more "sadness" to the world and give it more dystopian feeling. But its CDPR's call. Sure they can follow GTA series and add Stripclubs and Lap-dancers.

 

[fridgeband]

Stripclubs and Lap-dancers.

As a video game thing, and even as a real life thing (I'm glad I never), I don't know what but just seems like such an outdated concept. Just gives me this "I can't believe people are still doing that" feeling. I dunno. Just my opinion.

Really? I dont know many game what uses Stripclubs and lapdancers and are great "viral marketting" tool for a game. Strippers gets people talking. I actaully believe Strippers had massive influence on GTA5 success. Considering how big success GTA5 was, if anything they are "hot" tihng now, not outdated for sure. Some guys like to talk about cars and some strippers, thasts how the life goes.
