Cyberpunk 2077

Cyberpunk 2077 is a Role-Playing Game developed by CD Projekt Red and based off of the Cyberpunk RPG by Mike Pondsmith. Released turbulently in 2020 after years of hype, a number of patches have since improved the game.

You play in first-person view as "V", a customizable former (depending on the Multiple Choice Past) Corpo, Nomad, or Streetkid turned mercenary in Night City, North America. When a heist to steal an experimental biochip from the Arasaka Corporation Goes Horribly Wrong, he/she awakens with the Virtual Ghost of infamous Rockerboy Johnny Silverhand (Keanu Reeves) in his head, and must hurry to get to the bottom of things before time runs out.

Tropes used in Cyberpunk 2077 include:

Advert-Overloaded Future: There are adverts all over the place.
A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Delamain refuses to deviate course to a ripperdoc, since that isn’t the route the client paid for. May be averted: Given his impressive medical knowledge, he may have just known Jackie was too far gone, and that getting his stable client to safety was the best option.
Alternate Continuity: Shares a lot in common with the RPG, but also has a lot different.
Analog Punk: Not a straight example, but there’s way more paper media and removable physical media then one would expect given how far in the future it is.
Asshole Victim: Dexter DeShawn backstabs the player, but still gets killed due to events set off by a death he was only tangentially involved in, and one that he didn’t want any part in either.
Body Horror: Some of the cybernetic implants, but especially Maelstrom, since most of their face is replaced.
Bouncer: Can be seen at clubs.
Brain Uploading: The relic contains an engram of Johnny Silverhand.
Bullet Time: There are ways to make the gameplay slow down a bit. Other characters can use the same mechanics against the player, dodging bullets in a blur.
Character Customization: V's stats are selected by the player.
The City Narrows: Some areas of Night City have a bad reputation, even for Night City.
City of Adventure: Night City is the focal point of the game.
Combat Medic: The player can encounter Trauma Team very early on. Even though they’re helping the same person, it doesn’t stop them from keeping a gun trained on the player once the body is laid down in the stretcher.
Cool Bike: Jackie rides one.
Coolest Club Ever: Jackie talks about the Afterlife bar like this, and in universe isn’t far off.
Culture Chop Suey: Night City is an amalgamation of cultures on top of an American base, which is itself a melting pot of cultures.
Cyberpunk: Exactly What It Says on the Tin, megacorps hold huge influence, technology is massively improved, but not in ways that benefit the average joe.
Cyberpunk with a Chance of Rain: When it rains in Night City.
Cyberpunk Is Techno: Not all music, but some of the tracks are quite electronic.
Cyborg: Cybernetic implants are extremely common.
Development Hell: Had a long and storied development.
Divided States of America: The New United States of America is fractured.
Dystopia: There are massive societal problems that aren’t being addressed anytime soon.
Enemy Civil War: Militech has a small scale internal conflict between management trying to flush out a mole.
Establishing Character Moment: In the english version, Adam Smasher describes Evelyn as a "cut of fuckable meat" when he meets her on a flashback. From this single sentence, you can see he lacks any kind of etiquette or regard for human life.
Everything Is Online: Not literally everything, but a surprising number of everyday objects can be hacked remotely.
Evil Old Folks: Saburo Arasaka is in charge of one of the most powerful megacorps, and Jackie comments that he’s 150 years old.
Expansion Pack: The Phantom Liberty DLC.
Failure Is the Only Option: Johnny Silverhand has a drink named after him at the Afterlife bar, so The player has a fair idea the mission will not play out well when he deviates from plan to make an upload.
Flying Car: Favored by Trauma Team.
Foreshadowing: Johnny Silverhand is brought up at the bar just before the job before he is introduced.
Gang of Hats: A few of these exist in Night City, such as the Scavs that specialize in stealing cybernetic gear.
Genius Bruiser: Viktor Vektor as a doctor and a boxer.
Historical Domain Character: In Jackie's garage it is mentioned that Jackie thought that Ernest Hemingway was seen as tougher then Morgan Blackhand when inspecting his copy of For Whom the Bell Tolls.
Hollywood Hacking: Quick Hacks
Industrial Ghetto: Parts of Night City.
Japan Takes Over the World: Downplayed, it’s not Japan so much as their megacorp Arasaka being a major world player. A newscaster comments on their aircraft carrier being parked next to Night City.
The Juggernaut: Adam Smasher is depicted as this.
Loads and Loads of Characters: A ton of named characters exist in the game.
Mega Corp: Quite a few in the setting. Arasaka is the most prominent example, but there are others such as Militech.
Mission Control: T-Bug, while infiltrating the hotel and the events leading up to it.
Multiple Choice Past: The player can choose one of three Lifepaths for V, each of which unlocks some unique sidequests and dialogue options.
No-Tell Motel: With the name No-Tell Motel.
Nuke'Em: Johnny Silverhand did this to Arasaka Tower, dropping a duffle bag sized device down an elevator shaft.
Obvious Beta: The initial release was deeply flawed, to say the least.
- The game especially faltered on the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 at launch, which was a problem given that these were used by a significant portion of the player base, and that edition consoles had been released that were only barely able to play the game they were themed after.
- For a time, Google Stadia was recommended as the platform the play it on if the user did not own a high end PC.
- The YouTube channel Rerez has a video showing the unpatched state of the game on the Xbox One S.
The Rock Star: Johnny Silverhand was this, complete with groupies, attitude problems, and groupies.
R-Rated Opening: One of the first missions has the player rescue an unconscious person in the nude.
Scenery Porn: The layout and architecture of Night City are fleshed out, featuring vibrant and distinct areas.
Shout Out: Several:
- An arcade machine can be found in the game that shows pixelated versions of Roach and Gerald from The Witcher.
- One of the motorbikes looks somewhat similar to the iconic one from Akira.
Show Within a Show: Televsion broadcasts can be seen in game.
Soul Fragment: The Relic contains an engram of Johnny Silverhand.
Technology Porn: A lot of the high tech gear, cars, etc in the game is highly detailed, often with at least a short blurb about it.
Used Future: A lot of night city has seen better days.
Vice City: Night city is one, with a number of vices plain to see in public view.
Video Phone: Comms display a picture of the contact.
Virtual Ghost: The Engram of Johnny Silverhand.
Virtual Paper Doll: The player selects what V wears.
Zeerust Canon: Being based on the much earlier tabletop RPG, a lot of designs are clearly based on the design and expectations of The Eighties.
