  1. Choom…the theory's you string together so coherently is truly one of a kind on this platform. Enjoyed from beginning to end and definitely sounds like a concrete possibility! I also have a question. Wanting to delve knee deep in Cyberpunk lore. Obviously the wiki in certain aspects isn't gonna cut it. Do you recommend i grab the source books? Is it worth it? I'm all ears sensei 😂

  2. Something that could unite all endings os the fact Alt was a rogue Ai and her getting everyone from Mikoshi might just be what the Ai need to push through. In all these endings Arasaka is weakened. And in what ending it isnt? In the Devil ending. So that could be a way to connect the games

  3. I think 5th corporate war is inevitable, in any ending aside from the devil ending, you hear on the radio about increased tensions between a weakened Arasaka and Militech. The blue eyes being an indication of constant data stream isn't something I considered, but makes perfect sense, as you see it momentarily in data or money (which digitally would still just be data) transactions. I also wonder how much 'Project Oracle' has to do with the Oracle AI from 2020, or if it's possible that the AI we interface with that appears as Alt is actually that Oracle AI, or what it has become.

  4. Ok so in the Crystal palace ending u can read on the computer in the space shuttle about how even with V being the king/queen of the afterlife and night city and having all of his friends and connections he was unable to find out who the “client” is or any information on him which I assume is mr blue eyes and it also says that he either has friends wayyy above them and I forgot the other thing which is crazy because as we know rouge had contacts in space and V becomes a actual living legend and takes rouges place

  5. Fantastic video Choom! One of your best yet. You really read my mind with this topic, it's something ive thought about ever since I finished the game.

    Not only do i believe a 5th Corperate War and AI Invasion are where the story is going, but i think one will lead to the other. What if fighting in the Net during the 5th CW results in the Blackwall unintentionally being destroyed. Or, an even mire interesting possibility, one side destroys it on purpose hoping to use the Rogue AI to their advantage. I definitely feel like this is a real possibility.

    I'd also like to point out two things:

    1: IIRC theres a shard that can be found throughout the game where geopolitical analysts claim a 5th CW will start by 2080

    2: The Cyberpsycho encounter where we see Mealstrum worshipping an AI.

    Between the second point and all the other quest that talk about Rogue AI, no doubt theyll play a HUGE role in the story later down the line. I cant wait to see if the events of PL play any sort of role in this!

  6. I know little of Cyberpunk's lore. But I do know that the Net is fucked and the AI past the barrier put up for the accessible net(s) are not… friendly.

    Reunification of the US would be… interesting in Cyberpunk.

  7. Tbh I think Johnny was wrong, I don't think this is at all rogue AI, I genuinely think this is just night corp trying out new methods to control the politics of the city

    Edit: however I would be very interested to see how this would go if it does happen

  8. Ima make a prediction real quick, if this is true, the next game will probably based during the corporate war just before the AI invade (or atleast before the AI invasion gets into full swing), with the full on invasion either being in a DLC (probably too big for that though tbh), or the next game

  9. I was playing yesterday and I entered the Net part of a computer and entered Arasaka
    I don't remember the exact name of the tab in the webpage but there was an article about something to do with a partnership with a company called ORION
    I don't remember the exact content but it was something about a patent if I'm not mistaken
    It could be a code or a teaser of some sort but I suck at deciphering those 😂

  10. I have been saying this since playing the game. Little hints are dropped throughout the game subtle and slap up side of the head. Peralez being primary, to the loading screen screen at you. Alt 's end goal in the game with personalities. Mr BlueEyes possibly being Morgan Blackhand being controlled by AI. Sandra Dorsett's discovery that almost got her killed and her paranoia after.

  11. When you head to get your first gun link and optical upgrade, if you head straight down instead of turning left to Misty's then you see the chap mentioned (as jumping out the window) plummet to their death in front of you…

  12. Finally!! Someone made a Video about this!!! I thought me and my friend were the only people who believed an AI invasion will be a major plot point in the Sequel! Thank You!!!

  13. Don't you think it's odd that, in Cyberpunk, we all replace our eyes with optics, made by Kiroshi, whose logo is magenta, and not just any magenta, but a very specific magenta that has a very specific hex code?

  14. I'm keeping my eye on Brenden now. You didn't mention him, I mean maybe he just isn't important, but he directly says he's a "friendly A.I.". Hes next to Clouds club and you move a dumpster for him if you are feeling nice that day 😅

  15. Damn, great evidence here. My brother and I have been throwing a similar theory around for months! Your theories are always interesting. The VDBs seem like a cautionary tale. Brigitte thinks she and her inner circle be kept safe when the inevitable comes but can she confirm that? The AI are definitely planning something big. Don't agree with Bartmoss planning anything further with the datakrash though. It was chaotic vengeance.

    I will ask what you think has happened to the Ghosts in the Net? Since I don't believe V ever meets Alt and she is truly dead (along with Rache), they were probably consumed by the Soulkiller AI. If any AI is leading the rest into meatspace, it could be Soulkiller who'd know all about humans by now.

  16. the choice of the Orion constellation may be of importance, but it must be noted that most other CDPR projects' working titles refer to either famous stars or contellations. The two upcoming Witcher games are called Polaris (referring to the North Star, Alpha Ursae Minoris) and Sirius (Alpha Canis Majoris). Then there is the Cyberpunk sequel (the Orion constellation) and an unnamed unrelated project called Hadar (Beta Centauri).

  17. It is highly probable that the first casualties in the AI invasion will be Arasaka and Biotechnica. Arasaka so that the AI can get their hands on both SoulKiller and the experimental Relic. They will want SoulKiller as that program is likely to be the only weapon that can retaliate against them as long as Blackwall is subverted to the cause. Biotechnica so that they can get access to cloning technology. What a better way to create off-grid AI than installing the AI onto the chip and then implanting into a clone without and engram.

  18. I think Phantom Liberty is going to be about the AI. Theyve infiltrated Night Corp (in charge of NC infrastructure) and the mayor. Stuff is going to start in the Combat Zone in Pacifica and NUSAs president is going to request V stop the AI from breaking through the last defense and take over the net in NC. Voo Doo boys will help the AI. Pacifica will be the first net to be infected. Thats my theory for phantom liberty
