Cyberpunk 2077 Quest Designer Says It's "Inherently Political"

I honestly couldn't have said it better myself evilyung, that's a very great way to look at it and i completely agree with your view regarding the game's political and socioeconomic implementation about its class of elites and the way they might manage them in contrast to our world, especially in its dystopian setting.

nice

I'm looking forward to it. Political or not. I will say it is easier to get behind the little person that is less fortunate.

i really need to learn alien and dog language, as i am just a kitten

I need to pre-order)

Now that is a problem because when I sit down to play video games, it is to get away from  politics. No CD Projekt Red version of C-SPAN for me, thank you! I'll just stick with the Witcher.

Game will probably still be fun, but the last thing I want from a videogame writer is a lecture about politics.

It's going to sound a bit preachy on my part, but when you guys hear "politics" in a video game, it doesn't involve Donald Trump references or Democratic/Republican parties condescendingly talking down to the player itself to be aware of the current day political climate or things like that.

The Witcher series had a ton of politics involved within the seven major kingdoms. Part of the events happening in the Witcher games are because of politics. Kings being assassinated, many kingdoms being overtaken by the empire, unclaimed nations. 

I mean for god sake, the Bloody Baron was placed in his position to be a temporary ruler to ensure Velen doesn't fall into chaos. There are tons of great dialogues of people living in terrible conditions due to the war, people giving you quests regarding their missing relatives, the tension between military personnel interacting with the conquered village.

Witcher 3 has TONS of politics, the FICTIONAL politics. That is the type of politics they are referring in Cyberpunk 2077.

Nice, good read.
