Cyberpunk 2077 won't have a morality system

  • 136

Morality usually plays an important role in RPGs, Fable, Star Wars RPGs, inFamous, etc., but from the looks of it CDPR don't seem interested in a black and white depiction of their cypberpunk universe. In an interview from gamingbolt, we learnt that Cyberpunk 2077 won't have a good and evil system per se, but players will have the opportunity to choose if they want to play lethal or non-lethal:

“We don’t have a moral system per se,” quest director Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz told GamingBolt. “However, to complete it non-lethally you have to be very good at stealth. Invest in points that allow you to stealth better, use weapons that will allow you to incapacitate the enemy instead of killing them, to make the moral choices that will allow you to avoid killing people throughout the game.”

It seems the system CDPR are going for is akin to that of Deus Ex games, in which players could play different scenarios in different way, and their actions would have some repercussions later on in the game.

good to read that, but you can bet they will have problems in some countries like Germany, where their censorship and USK age rated system is very restrictive

Well yeah, it will most likely have some restrictions in Germany and maybe even Australia (I remember there being some problems in the past with game ratings in this country) but I don't know how much thus censorship will affect the story and quests available in-game
