Things decided about Ivan while I was actually playing the game, and not just messing around in photomode.

People assume he’s always covered in bruises and bandaged up because he never shuts up, runs his mouth, then gets in fights. And sure, sometimes that’s it, but not routinely. He��ll have a scrap for fun, but he doesn’t really like actual combat that much. The damage is usually from him fucking around and climbing, scurrying and generally being a nuisance all over in places he isn’t meant to be. Gets hit by a lot of cars, and the occasional metro, always falling off stuff.

Combat wise, he’s a little sneak bitch. Back in the badlands, he was much more loud and direct, but found it harder to fight the way he wanted to in NC, at least not without immense collateral damage that just wasn’t a factor he’d needed to consider before. Molotovs and the spray and pray method don’t do well in crowds. So he adapted. He’d rather people never see him coming, and not have a damn clue what hit them. Always been quick, flexible, and had good reflexes, he was just, finally, putting it to good use. Of course, he’s only got a few months worth of intense on the job training for that method, so he fucks up occasionally and ends up falling back on SMGs or explosives.

Night City feels claustrophobic to him. It was something he could ignore with a friend to pall around with, not seeing an open sky didn’t matter if you were too busy looking around at all the other shit. But both time, and well, yall know, have soured it a lot. It’s not a novelty anymore.

Elegy likes to remind Arasaka and other big corps that they're in her sights; she often scouts their grounds, learns patterns, and then attacks.

After a few stunts like that, she earned the title of The Omen and The Plague - because if she picks you as a target, expect even worse things to come, and the latter - you'll know, because your employees will start dropping like flies.

takemura went “time to assault arasaka tower in a white suit” and then we didn’t even get to see him covered in blood  😬

playing a V specced into strength has been so worth it solely for the moment that we were playing as johnny in a flashback and he utterly fumbled trying to pry a door open. and i got to sit back with the devil's grin on my face go "hm. garry would have gotten that door open"

Violence in any form tends to cause Viergenie either a considerable amount of unease or in more gruesome cases makes her physically ill.

The worst discovery I've made in 2077 was discovering that if you take down someone non-lethally, you gain more experience and street cred if you kill them afterwards. My morals took a sharp dive after learning that

i’m kind of like frustrated because... the dweller set up for mara is not something i could realistically like edit, but she has a shit ton of neural ports to hitch into a dweller’s chair. militech’s is more integrated than arasaka’s in the sense that the spinal column is altered to allow for reflex like behavior and immersion. when she’s jacked in, she is completely non-responsive and has guards outside the doors at all times. she’s literally locked into the chair until her shift is over. she still has these neural ports which make her capable of jacking into multiple things at the same time. she absolutely modifies a netrunner’s chair to be a dweller chair because it’s just... easier for her, but she has to have someone there in case she starts overheating because there is no real way for her to disconnect.

me planning for the (don’t fear) the reaper ending: i’m gonna be so nice, so professional, non-lethal all the way. only smasher needs to die.

me when the quest actually started and i got dropped in front of multiple enemies and i had zero cover:
