One Cyberpunk 2077 player, after 600 hours of gameplay, thought they’d stumbled upon a genuinely happy outcome in Night City. However, the game quickly proved them wrong. A short YouTube video from Broken_Player shows the player discovering a seemingly heartwarming detail involving a medal and an NPC. While things initially appear positive, anyone familiar with Cyberpunk 2077 knows happy endings aren’t really part of the game’s world.
There are no happy endings in Cyberpunk 2077, especially for the NPCs
This brief, 30-second scene begins with the player unexpectedly giving a valuable award – their NUSA distinction medal – to a non-player character (NPC). It’s an easy moment to overlook, but players have discovered it, as shared in an older Reddit post. That post reveals the NPC is in a desperate situation: they’ve lost their home, their child is sick, and they’re just trying to scrape together enough money for alcohol. Offering such a valuable item could be life-changing for them.

CD Projekt Red really nailed the emotional impact of *Cyberpunk 2077*. The conversations feel incredibly realistic – initially surprising and shocking, then genuinely heartwarming. You watch this character start to recover, walking away and even stepping into a crosswalk, feeling like you’re witnessing someone rebuild their life. But, be warned – spoilers ahead – a truck hits them. The most popular comment on the clip perfectly captures the game’s tone: *Cyberpunk* just doesn’t let you have a happy ending.

Predictably, the internet responded with dark humor. Many comments made sarcastic remarks, such as “He cherished that gift forever, it was so sweet,” and “He didn’t deserve thanks – he got exactly what he deserved.”
Since its rocky start, *Cyberpunk 2077* has improved dramatically, and players are now enjoying the game’s unpredictable and often hilarious moments. This is a good sign for the future of the *Cyberpunk* series, which is expected to include multiplayer features. However, with *The Witcher 4* also in development, it will likely be quite some time before we hear any concrete details about a potential *Cyberpunk 2*.
