Did they fire the original writing staff and hire some dudes from reddit to write this? Not that the base game had the best writing, but after an hour of playing the DLC there have been multiple instances of lines that seem to be terminally infected by the Gamer Mind Virus. Hearing V say “amazeballs” made me want to die.

Also, fuck having to save the president. Lame mission tbh.

    hire some dudes from reddit to write this

    The original game introduces the Keanu Reaves cameo by having the player go le epic john wick right after a cutscene where he put a feeemale in her place.

    This game was always written by redditors. At least amazeballs is so harmless it’s almost cute.

          It’s so dumb playing a blank slate character with a main character in his head. Just have me play as the main character!

          The story should have just been you are Johnny Silverhand, a famous rocker who gets radicalized by industrial society and its consequences, get dropped by your label and shit (explains starting the game not rich) and dive into the punk underworld of political terrorism, fixer crime, etc. Literally every aspect of “rpg” in this game sucks. None of the dialogue choices matter, none of the origin stories matter, it’s dumb. Just be an open world action game with skill trees and a main character.
