I'M ALSO A NERVOUS MESS WITH THESE TOO ON SCREENNNNNNAAAAAGGHHHHHHHRHRRRRR
Mary and Arthur are the embodiment of "You came?" "You called" and I'm so here for it
plus the way she makes a 36 years old seasoned killer, a nervous mess who draws hearts on his little journal? iconic
"I wish cyberpunk had done, etc. I wish there was X ending, I don't feel like they explored XYZ enough"
BABE THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT. Cyberpunk, even as a tabletop game, revolved around the fact that there is ALWAYS something going on that you don't know about. The whole point of the series is that YOU CAN'T WIN. You, no matter how reknown you become, will be an insignificant cog in the big machinery that is night city, and you will die that way. The entire point is that there's no satisfying way to end it. There is no "good" or "happy" ending because THE WHOLE POINT OF THE SERIES IS HOW FUTILE TRYING TO BEAT THE SYSTEM IS. The most compelling thing about the series is that no matter what choices you make, you lose, and you've got to grapple with that to get to the ending that you consider the best possible outcome, and even then, you won't be happy.
There are no happy endings in Night City.
