How CD Projekt RED Paid Attention to A Youtuber!
Many people mention the polish company CD Projekt RED these days because of the recent release of the very ambitious game “Cyberpunk 2077”, the game that had a troubled launch due to overhype and bugs.
But technical issues aside, one the reason the game was overhyped is when people knew that “Keanu Reeves” was involved in the project!
He portrayed a character called “Johnny Silverhand”, a rocker boy and also a well known cyber-terrorist in the world of the game, but he died way before the events of the game took place, so he’s technically a legend when your character roams Night City, in the footage seen in the trailers before the release of the game, there is a moment where the main playable character “V” enters a bar called “The Afterlife” with a friend and having a drink together, the special thing about that bar is that it names the drinks after the real legends of Night City, and since “Johnny Silverhand” is considered a household name in that world, he has drink named after him, and that’s exactly what “V” and his friend order.
It looks like your average yellow colored alcoholic beverage, but “Greg Titian” who’s hosting a show on his YouTube channel “How To Drink” wanted to make his own interpretation of the “Johnny Silverhand” Drink, and he made made a video about that recreation and how he created it step by step
you will notice that the most distinctive features in the recreation is the gradient colors and the chili garnish put on the glass which makes it look even cooler.
and probably the developers thought it looked cool too because they remodeled the drink after the game’s release to resemble the recreation made by “Greg” with the chili garnish and all.
and here are the two drinks side by side:
It’s always cool when developers pay attention to what surrounds their games as it creates some great details and moments like what we just witnessed.
