How 77’s ending is likely to be handled in Orion

[UnlivingEnd]

Almost every ending is going to be framed as a rumor or a theory people came up with after V’s disappearance from the city. There will be no definitive answers.

Considering what CDPR just did to Witcher 3's endings by canonizing "Ciri become's Witcher", I wouldn't hold out hope for anything rational. We're likely to get The Devil ending with V as a Engram becoming canon and Orion will have protagonist ripped directly from a Tumblr lucid dream.

In any case, I'll be happy sipping "V's" in Afterlife no matter what it's about. I think "V" should be a L.I. Iced Tea type of powerful drink mashup.

is that 'your' V's drink?
if not.. what is your V's drink, and why?

V has a favourite tequila (Cenzon), and Spunky Monkey lemonade appears to be his favourite soft drink...so I'd go with something based on those two ingredients.

I think you're forgetting that this is CDPR we're talking about, the studio with 3 witcher games under their belt and both 2, and 3 have save importation. They'll probably have this feature for Orion.

ChroManticore, actually. Nah but V doesn't really have a definitive favorite non-alcoholic beverage, although Judy if romanced will leave a special type of ChroManticore in your apartment(s) from time to time along with a slice of whatever you said your favorite type of pizza was. Though the NiCola heart eyes are a customization option, and at the flea market in Santo Domingo the guy at the front with the food stand who gives a side quest, idr if Spunky Monkey is an option, but he proclaims it better than ChroManticore. I think the only time I am certain V can ask for one is when you have the option to ask Panam for lemonade.

That was when all their games ran on the same engine tho.
The new hires over in the USA (the ones actively working on Orion) are all likely to have training in unreal.

That's one of the reasons (I hear sometimes) as to why all the game studios are migrating to Unreal Engine.
New hires don't know the older engines, older hires are moving on...no one wants to train them/learn old engines... It's just easier to move to the 'industry standard' that everyone knows already, than insist they learn an older system.
*shrug*
(Also hear this is a reason why many games are poorly optimised nowadays. Older systems had limitations that caused creators to get creative to do what they wanted. Now, it's just about which new Nvidia card or how much ram you can squeeze into the dev kit lol)

Not sure REDEnigine and Unreal Engine can talk to eachother....

The only thing that will need a definite answer, is what happend to Arasaka.
I dont think the game can include two realities, one where Arasaka is still ruled by (the reborn) Saburo, one where Arasaka is ruled by Jorinobu.
My guess is, they'll go with The Devil.
Saburo stays, and everyting else also stays as it ever was.
V is just a rumor. He came, he kicked a$$, and he disappeared.

That doesnt mean, they wont read in CP2077 save files and take over some decissions you made, but it it wont be huge things.
Maybe you can meet Randy if you saved him.

So as it turns out, Saburo had been in control of his son for quite a while beforehand.

How many years later will it be, 2100 ??? With that many years Johnny would have been a great Rock Star evading Panam or V would have been dead many many years ago or V is a old fixer now.

My gut tells me 2099.
It's 22 years after 2077, and they have certain numbers that crop up a lot.
22, 45, 54.
All femV's E3 stuff is slotted into slot 22 in character creation. (The bits we got, at least. Not the proper hair tho)
54 years since Johnny's attack, N54 news, where Nancy went as Bess Isis.
And 2099 has a good ring to it....the last year of the 21st century....
The end of a century gets weird to lol. We humans get a bit.... crazy XD.
22 is also a good age for femV's and River's kid, or mascV's and Panam's kid to decide to go ride to Night City to ask about them, should they decide to go the 'my parent was V' route for a protagonist....
(Tho I doubt they would go that path myself. Think they want no actual connections to V)
