Cyberpunk 2077 email from \u201cJohnny Silverhand\u201d has players in stitches CD Projekt RedCyberpunk 2077\u2019s futuristic setting has a fantastical bent, but it seems its inhabitants aren\u2019t immune from some of our mundane troubles. A spam email in-game from \u201cJohnny Silverhand\u201d is remarkably similar to some real ones. Cyberpunk 2077 has some new additions thanks to the 2.0 update and Phantom Liberty DLC. Changes to perks and the addition of new progression systems like Relic Skills are just some of them. Cyberpunk 2077\u2019s Phantom Liberty DLC obviously adds a whole host of new characters and a new story to the game but there\u2019s more than that. The 2.0 update also added new dialogue to the base game, including new texts and emails on V\u2019s phone. One of these new messages has Cyberpunk 2077 players of the game\u2019s Subreddit sides split thanks to its fantastic satirization of modern spam. u\/Amirax posted a message they\u2019d received in-game that they joked was \u201cproof\u201d that Johnny Silverhand was alive. The message claims to be from the legendary Rockerboy and terrorist whose digital soul is currently eating the player character\u2019s brain. The message is a very obvious spoof on spam texts and emails that the tech-literate will immediately get. Your grandparents might comply though. It\u2019s riddled with the sort of grammatical errors that are common amongst these sorts of messages. \u201cHello dear user, This is Johnny Silverhand. I am write for you in hiding \u2013 not dead!\u201d the message begins. It goes on to explain that apparently our headmate never died and has been healing from radiation sickness for the last 50 years. Users in the comments of the post found it hilarious. \u201cThe spam emails in this game are top-notch,\u201d one user said. \u201cEven in 2077, we have scammers that try the \u201cKing of Nigeria\u201d email route,\u201d another replied. More than the classic scams of the early 2000\u2019s this one has a lot in common with messages that sprung up after the death of another monarch. Some users also think that u\/Amirax\u2019s initial joke isn\u2019t super far off the mark. \u201cYou joke, but canonically speaking this might actually be true,\u201d one user explained. \u201cThe upper half of his body that was left after Smasher blew the rest of it is frozen in Angel\u2019s basement.\u201d Could a corporeal Johnny Silverhand make a return in a Cyberpunk 2077 sequel? Mike Pondsmith had previously claimed to have left Silverhand\u2019s death ambiguous for the benefit of tabletop GMs who wanted to include him in their games. Maybe the virtual GMs at CD Projekt RED will take the hint.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
