Wouldn't motion capturing a literal nobody actor or model be cheaper than motion capturing and buying the rights for an A-list actor?
Do we even need to motion capture in the first place and can just simply design an original character based on nobody in real life?
Isn't it a bad thing when Keanu Reeves is mentioned online more often than the title of an upcoming video game?
In the future, people will refer to this as just a Keanu Reeves video game and not even bothering saying Cyberpunk 2077.
I hope this doesn't become a trend to be honest.
Hell, if you are already paying so much money for Keanu Reeves, why bother having any other main character besides Keanu Reeves? That way, you would get your money's worth out of Keanu Reeves instead of limiting him to CGI rendered cut scenes.
we know that hes ingame, we've seen him in the 30s gameplay trailer that gave us the release date. and no to the rest of your post

They made the game night time, added cyan and pink neons around the city to please the cyberpunkfags.
They obviously added Keanu to make the game popular because it wasn't getting enough hype or attention, they had no choice. It was appease the masses or suffer financial catastrophe.
Sebastian Robinson
that's all nice but where's the fucking gameplay demo WHERE IS THE GAMEPLAY DEMO
Jack Fisher
It's fanboyism + marketing.
Nobody with any sense would argue it isn't a giant waste of money. But due to the success of Witcher 3, CDPR has a ton of money to throw around. They've become decadent, basically.
If you want developers to stay grounded, don't give them a ton of money. Just enough to not go bankrupt.
Hudson Bennett
The game had that stuff for years. Are you retarded?
Gavin Lewis
Keanu isn't a greedy fuck like most actors. He has actually taken pay cuts in the past while working on movies just so they could bring in other actors
Cameron Ortiz
Imagine how mad you'll be when they reveal the other two celebrities who are part of the game.

Keanu is the most ''cyberpunk'' actor there is considering his past roles. It makes sense to hire him for the game.

>Wouldn't motion capturing a literal nobody actor or model be cheaper than motion capturing and buying the rights for an A-list actor? After the trailer, CDPR stock went up 10%, earning them about $500mln. They already got the expenses covered.

Yes. Though it would be cool if they also got Rutger Hauer. He did voice work for the new Kingdoms Hearts.
Camden Peterson
do you think it bothers actors when they get put into something and they make their hair visibly more thick / beard visibly less patchy?
Usually it's actors wanting their digital selves to look better than their actual selves with whatever they're insecure about, so putting hair back into receding hairlines, making them buff, etc.
Owen Ramirez
It probably would be cheaper but if you're going to take mocap to this extent you really need to use someone who can act.
Ethan Richardson
Basically this. It's not like he's some famous tit. He's been linked to the genre for decades.
Landon Wright
I'd be bothered, really. I don't know how women pound make up on their face and feel okay.
It's like a temporary stat boost. Shit is fake.
Owen Powell
Literally the worst fucking example ever, Jackie has been in some great movies. Fuck yourself zoomer, tell your momma to come back and pick up her lingierie.
Daniel Gomez
He was also in Observer, another cyberpunk game.

keanu's name is everywhere, keanu's skin is in fortnite, all the zoomers play fortnite, all the zoomer's read about fortnite, they read about keanu, they hear about Cyberpunk. Or any other vague connection for all sorts of demographics. Keanu was as good a choice as they could feasibly get right now.
In fact, it's fucking remarkable they managed to swing it. Jesus fucking christ, how long ago was it that everyone was merrily referring to CDPR as slavs on a budget of vodka and shoestrings? Now they've fully rendered Keanu Reeves likeness and got the voice acting as well. Bravo.
Ryan Green
But movies and games are eternal for them. However they look in there, it's how they'll always look like. And their looks are decided by the director and their team.
Sebastian Jackson
A literal nobody wouldnt bring back thousands of Sales based on presence only This is a investment, Keanu will sell this game to loads of people
Aiden Brown
Yeah. Just wanted to hear someone else's viewpoint, I think about this more and more as it becomes more common.

The polish government helps cdpr with a load of benefits Its a privately owned government initiative
The Witcher 3 sellings loads of copies also helped

They chose the best possible A-lister who doesn't demand a billion dollars for a cameo
