Cyberpunk 2077’s city was a lifeline for me once, and the Phantom Liberty DLC is a reminder of its comfort
. As glad as I am to be in NYC, I can’t ignore the familiar feeling of warmth I get when inhabiting V again in a virtual city. It turns out, playing through the story of a guy who spent his life in a dangerous, expansive city is somewhat more soothing than the culture shock of actually moving to a city after years on the opposite side of the country.To be clear, I’m fine. I’m more than fine.
I would have been so much worse off. But decades of dreaming of a place can’t prepare you for what it feels like to move there, thousand miles away from everything you’ve ever known.I’m lucky enough that some of my best friends are already here, and I at the very least knew most of my coworkers before I moved to New York City. So I was able to, in some ways, circumvent the debilitating loneliness that often accompanies a cross-country move.
I catch glimpses of a future life that’s mine when I sit on my friend’s back deck and hear the sound of the shuttle passing by, or when I’m able to in-person check on a friend who seems to be going through a hard time. Hell, the welled-up feeling I get when I walk past skyscrapers in Manhattan stirs more emotion in me than any part of that small town in Georgia did in 30 years.
But some of that is what I expected. I knew that, despite it being framed as an exaggerated commentary on American cities, Night City is pretty true to life. We. But living in a place where I can find people like Kerry and Judy, places like Afterlife, and a community like the Aldecaldos was always the goal, even if it meant dragging myself to a city that is built upon so many platitudes.
