    By the way, there's one more "outcome" for the Dogtown Saints gig. Since the dialogue options show that Nika and the Scavs didn't want to kill anyone, I decided to take them all non lethaly. If you do this, and allow both Nika and Anderson to live, Mr Hands will tell you that "you even spared the Scavs, which means they will have no reason to go after Anderson in the future". I'm guessing this also changes the dialogue with Nika a bit at her brother's funeral, but I haven't seen it yet.

    I love the Leon Rinder gig because of the reference to Johnny. JS's real name, Robert John Linder, is a clear anagram to Leon Rinder. Leon is literally a Johnny, who stayed in the army instead of running away like Silverhand did. It's like an alternative universe, where Johnny stays in the army and becomes something like Leon: used, broken and forgotten by the higher ups

    The thing about sparing Rinder is that people often conflate the concepts of Justice and Revenge. Revenge is an emotional response, "He hit me so I get to hit him." Justice is about making things right. Maybe you can't undo the damage, but you can at least try to make amends so people can live a little better.

    As far as Talent Academy goes, my philosophy is very simple: it doesn’t matter if the practice will continue elsewhere. Right now, in front of me, there is evil in the world, and if I want to make the world a better place, I have to take them out. So for me, she dies. Yes, a lot of the kids that are currently there will have bad times, but leaving her alive will create a bad time for countless people in the future.

    A weird thing that happened in Talent Academy for me was agreeing to the deal with Fiona and having Tommie be signed, then immediately killing her. When I went back to the stadium and talked to Tommie, he confirms that he got signed and will play in Europe. It's either a bug (2.0, not 2.1), or Fiona works really fast and that there are teams lined up to get any one of her athletes.

      I think it's more like Scavs are people kicked out of USSR and yet they are contacted from time to time to do the dirty work of USSR and its corps like SovOil. To maintain plausible deniability because according to Cyberpunk Lore USSR is more advanced than NUSA or Night city so doesn't make sense that they want stolen 2nd hand cyberware of NC residents.

    Talent academy is my favorite quest in the game because none of these quest ms have ever made my blood boil in the way learning about the sports academy did. Seeing the way the kids are kept like animals, experiencing the auction, reading about the tons of lives ruined. It was an anger that no game has ever made me feel.
    Obviously I know destroying her wasn’t going to suddenly solve the issue, but it’s a Jotaro situation where she just deserves it.

It sucks for those who dont but both sides are aware of the risk beforehand. When you walk past the dormitories you can talk to the girl and ask her who brought her here to which she replies " i applied myself" and some ecstatic response about how happy she was to get chosen... Who am i to take away that opportunity ?

    Fun fact: On Waiting For Dodger, I used System Collapse on all the soldiers... While it's non-lethal, since the hack technically shuts down all their tech, the check at the end fails because Dodger's second checks the biomon feed for the men to see if they're living and all their biomons are offline, so...
    But I was still able to exit without a fight with another speech check (think it was Body?). Once the two cops were out (idiots ran me over on the way out!), I turned around and zeroed Dodger anyway, because I'm a bastard.

    Regarding the ambush after Roads to Redemption, in case we've already rescued Tiny Mike, it would be awesome to have him give us a heads-up, since these guys were mercs from the Afterlife and were gathering the crew there, while TM was sitting at his small table (probably still offended that we blew him off when he asked us to join him for 50th time).

    I created my own headcanon for my V. Something fun that I like to do for most the games i play. Anyway, before Phantom Liberty was even a rumor, the headcanon for my V was “the son of Corpo higherups, who was turned into an experimental weapon by chipping him with all kinds of chrome since he was a child. It makes V all sorts of wrecked emotionally and mentally, but also a ruthless weapon.
    Fast forward to Phantom Liberty, and the exact gig happens that perfectly ties into this headcanon. It made my V’s choice very easy though. V was beyond horrified and enraged by the “athletics program” and burned it all to the ground, no hesitation.

      I'm currently doing a corpo playthrough where I've got a similar idea - that V was being raised to become a next generation Arasaka Ninja, like Oda and Takemura. Looking the part thanks to mods (Cyberbody type 8 is great), and running pistols & mantis blades.
      This kind of story makes the most sense for V IMO. This 23 year old with no proper training is one of the strongest mercs in NC History, so the idea that they're chipped with a whole bunch of advanced tech and trained from birth to be Arasaka elite explains it well.

    Maybe I'm reaching, but I think I've found something pretty wild in these gigs in that they all reference certain aspects of the main story of Phantom Liberty.
    -Dogtown Saints: Songbird's done a lot of shady stuff and is far from a saint, but there's still a question of whether or not she still deserves compassion.
    -Prototype in the Scraper: The reason Song and V are in the mess they're in is because they made the gonk choice to mess with a megacorp. Also foreshadows Song's plan.
    -Treating Symptoms: While it might be good to fulfill Song's request (regardless of the path you choose), it might benefit you more in the long-term to keep her alive... and hand her to the FIA.
    -Waiting for Dodger: ... Yeah I got nothing. Funny gig though.
    -The Man Who Killed Jason Foreman: Begs the question of how much of what happened can be broken down to either consequences of bad decisions or just horrible luck, also like Song.
    -Spy in the Jungle: The FIA's pursuit of Songbird if you side with her.
    -Talent Academy: Song was plucked up into the FIA and molded into what she is at a young age.
    -Heaviest of Hearts: Reed is the one responsible for getting Song tangled up in everything and is fighting so hard to save her. But in reality, he's only doing it for his sake, not hers.
    -Roads to Redemption: A definite reference to the Killing Moon. After everything she's done, does she deserve redemption?
    Whew, that went longer than I thought, but that's my take.

      handing song to the FIA might be one of the most stupid decision. She'll be locked up in a cage and used as a backdoor into the blackwall. Just like how you'll never get a body and be stuck forever in mikoshi if you side with arasaka.

First because we don't know him and second because onestly I don't think he is evil, is means are just morally questionable. He eliminated a corrupt Major and placed a pro-union and anti-corp major in NC, while protecting them from corruption (Brain manipulation) and assassination attempts. I hope to see more of him in the future.

    Another interesting little bit for Dogtown Saints, if you go to the right of the church, you'll see a wall with neon signs in the shape of lips, and there's a little fenced area you can jump up onto. You'll see some skezzed out junkies and you can find a pretty interesting shard there about the priest!

    You can resolve waiting for dodger peacefully even if you killed everyone by passing a 20 cool speech check. You basically say "well you got a really good story out of all this so why dont you just let them go?"
    Also 42:25 corpo V can note that the netrunner is using an Arasaka Icsbreaker, which is presumably how they establish the cover

    Also I found this. In the heavy hearts quest I found a shard in the back of the bottom level that there is another person who was "intrigated" by Georgina´s muscle he has passed out and needs to be taken out by the back door. So it really does seem that she beats the information out of people if she needs to. Sadly you cant call her out on it.

    On Jason Foreman's computer you can also find an email sent by Jack Mausser, the merc and club owner you're hired to kill in one of Dino's gigs. It's pretty funny because he asks for help laying low for a month or so to then return, yet agin, to Night City, contrary to V's warnings.
    I guess this only happens if you complete that gig before this one.

    After the 2.11 update, in the Dodger gig, no matter how you get to the end, when the cops drive out of the garage, they hit one of Dodgers guys and combat starts. I ran away and it still had me as completing it non-lethally. After a few reloads to see if it would fix itself, I just left it, cause that is honestly just how Bill and Charlie would screw V.

    I remember doing this one gig for Wakako to meet this one gonk and deliver his gift to the Tygers, and after completing the gig Wakako commends me saying something along the lines of me being a merc that doesn't ask questions, and that have stuck with me ever since.
    V IS a merc, V is a hired gun. A hired gun does whatever their fixers ask of them, you do well enough, climb high enough, see Jackie in the major leagues and hopefully get your own drink in the Afterlife.
    My Apogee- Sovereign V might be bloodthirsty at times but he tries his damnest to be professional, he zeroes whoever he's told to. saves whoever he's told to. Moral decisions aren't his to make, when every person in Night City risks catching a stray while trying to enter Delamain.

    I could’ve sworn when Phantom Liberty first released there was originally an option to go in the room where Gaspar’s body is before talking to Nika and when you enter the room to confront her, instead of her attacking the ripperdoc demanding to see her brother, you simply tell her that Gaspar is in the other room “on ice” and she leaves the alone (as opposed to hitting or shooting him). I’m guessing they removed this option because the devs likely saw it as too watered down of an option from a narrative standpoint. After all, PL is their Hollywood blockbuster of a dlc so they likely preferred a more dramatic approach in terms of character interaction.

    I don't really like the Scav quest. You only get the full picture if you let Nika threaten the doctor which would be unwise. The doctor is your client and also Nika is a Scav. There's no reason to show them compassion or anything when they threaten your target imo. Of course if you're metagaming you know that's what you're supposed to do but that means metagame and roleplay go seperate ways.
