Line 62:
* [[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]]: Comes up a few times.
* [[Evil Old Folks]]:* Saburo Arasaka is in charge of one of the most powerful megacorps, and Jackie comments that he’s 150 years old.
** Adam Smasher was a highly known mercenary in 2023, and is still doing high profile mercenary work in 2077. Of course, he’s more machine than man.
* [[Expansion Pack]]: The ''Phantom Liberty'' DLC.
* [[Extreme Graphical Representation]]: A lot of tech is needlessly over the top in graphical representation, employing holograms and screens when a plain counter or button would work just as well.
Line 71 ⟶ 73:
* [[Future Slang]]: Lots, mostly in the form of Choom and Gonk.
* [[Gambit Pileup]]: The unexpected intersection of Arasaka family politics with the heist for the relic kicks off the events of the game.
* [[Game Within a Game]]: Some arcade machines are playable.
* [[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.
Line 97 ⟶ 100:
** 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 [https://youtu.be/DIjZjWiuTZg video] showing the unpatched state of the game on the [[Xbox One|Xbox One S]].
* [[Older Than They Look]]: Justified: The wealthy can afford anti-aging treatments.
** Some of the former members of the band ''Samurai'' look between 40 and 60 in 2077, but were at the peak of their musical careers by 2023.
** Saburo Arasaka is 150 years old, and can walk around by himself, and is still a sharp schemer. Granted he looks closer to 90, but that’s not bad given his extreme age.
* [[Oppressive States of America]]: Enough that some states fought against the government for more autonomy.
* [[Precision F-Strike]]: Delamain, who normally never swears, tells "Beep Beep Motherfucker" during a hit and run on V's car in a Parking garage. {{Spoiler|It wasn’t the true Delamain, who is always polite, but a rouge aspect.}}
Line 129 ⟶ 135:
** Judy is a skilled braindance editor who also has a robotics workbench in her apartment.
* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]]: Many characters have dyed hair, including blue hair.
* [[Your Head Asplode]]: Ozob Bozo has a grenade implanted where his nose should be. Keep punching him in the head, and it will go off.
* [[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]].
