Keanu Reeves’ « star power » gave him such a draw that CD Projekt Red had to make his Cyberpunk 2077 character, Johnny Silverhand, especially « horrible » at first just so player’s wouldn’t constantly side with him in quest choices.
That’s according to Paweł Sasko, who was lead quest designer on The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077, and is now CDPR’s quest director for the upcoming Phantom Liberty expansion. Sasko was speaking at his GDC talk on Wednesday, where he suggested it’s a similar situation for Idris Elba, who stars in the DLC.
« When it comes to Cyberpunk, » he said, « we discovered this very interesting factor which is star power.
