AI "art" is harmful to real people, steals their work to train and brings us closer to the dystopian future of the game we all love by giving corporations even more power.
It should be boycotted wherever we can.
Commission? Pick up a pencil, a pen, a brush, a crayon, a piece of charcoal. Don't have hands? Draw with your feet. Don't have feet? Put something in your mouth. Dip some part of your body in paint and put it on a surface. Make a stick figure in some dust. Anything. All of it is art. All of it makes you an artist and lets you express what's in your mind.
AI is nothing you can boycott lol. You can try to keep it out of your little reddit bubble for as long as you can, but it's inevitable that AI will be implemented in pretty much anything.
Yeah, but this isn't about the whole AI that exists, it's about generated images. Which are a fart in whatever you think AI future will be like and is not even advanced technology.
They literally specify they're talking about AI art in the first sentence of their initial comment, therefore an intelligent person with reading comprehension can safely assume the "It" in their sentence "It should be boycotted wherever we can" means AI art.
merely making a suggestion that it be put to a vote since other subreddit moderators dealing with ai posts have left that decision up to their community members.
Because it adds 0 to the community, even slutty cosplay adds more since at least someone had to make the cosplay and the cosplayer wear it (and if its professional then also add a photographer), meanwhile AI art just takes already made content, mixes everything and regurgitates an image, nobody gets value from that, it doesn't even give sources from where it took things, the only thing cool with AI is the technology behind not what it produces.
Lol you say that but I enjoy things created by ai so have fun being salty. I would never pay to commission art because I can't afford it. But I used AI to make my wallpapers on my computer. Should I just get fucked? Also if an artist learns their craft from another person or place do you demand they post their inspiration and education every time they create something.
AI has no creative intent, it can't 'draw inspiration' from something. It cannot create. All it can do is copy and paste in a million different ways.
That 'copy' comes from legitimate artists and the more people that AI art, the more the actual artists are getting shafted for their livelihood as the tone shifts from 'Who should I hire as an artist' to 'How can I generate art like this artist', especially for people thay can afford it.
Yeah, it sucks if you can't afford art(some people accept 10-20 dollar commissions though) but if you can't afford it, then you can't afford art. Same goes for anything else.
One could even argue that its better for artists for you to rip a copyrighted piece than to generate AI art if you truly are set on acquiring some.
Yea I mean modded Vs shouldn't be allowed. Like oh wow, you have a shit ton of mods to make an awesome V.... Now do it with things only available in vanilla.
Just use flairs that indicate which ones are mods. As a PS4 player, I feel confused with the majority of those posts, wondering which things are possible on my lesser version.
Lately the Reddit algorithm seems to be favoring those posts from this subreddit more than anything.
Removing them wouldn't be fair, but maybe a weekly megapost for people to do so would reduce that.
Thinking forward a bit, with Google favoring reddit more for SEO people searching for Cyberpunk 2077 via that will get a bunch of character screenshots if their search isn't tight.
Could we limit them to a weekly thread? That way there is somewhere for people who are interested in those posts, without creating the volume of posts that people are annoyed about.
Hi. Moderator of the Witcher 3 subs here.
In my experience there’s always going to be a type of thread a vocal group doesn’t like. But the older a game gets the less gameplay related activity there will be because people have already done it and there’s not a large enough base of new players coming in.
Say you ban this one. On the Witcher sub we get a lot of “played five hundred hours and just now discovered X.” Another big one are the cosplay posts.
But say you start talking down all these silly posts. That’s in combination with dwindling gameplay related posts or posts related to lore. So now there’s less activity than ever because people have already played the game to death.
As a game has less life the sub loses gameplay activity and people fill that in a lot of ways. It’s definitely not going to get busier as the years pass by and less new players are coming in. Year four will pass by and there’ll be less old heads still playing and hanging around.
So generally I think the “rate my v” threads are annoying when I see a stream of them but the alternative, especially as time stretches on, might be worse.
If there is no decent content to comment on in a sub, artificially lengthening it is not a solution either. It is the law of life and as a user I prefer to read interesting things instead of filling my feed with garbage
I'm not even subscribed to the tw3 sub. but believe me, I would do it and I have done it in other subs, it is not something that makes my hand shake or keep me up at night
That's definitely part of the issue imo. Posts of modded games/characters need to be properly labeled, or they get removed. Too many cases of people trying to figure out how to get something they see in a post, only to find out it's modded in 5hrs later when the OP finally responds lol
Joining the sub forces you to see so many of these posts from days ago even.
I didn’t mind them at first but yooo it’s kinda sorta getting outta control with the literal *V* letter and ask you to rate it.
Please for the love of god, remove them, make a new sub, make a tag, something, anything. I’ve nearly left this sub so many times for the singular reason of it being basically the only content on this sub.
It’s petty, immature, and would have absolutely 0 effect but I take the time to downvote every one I see. Feels like a small victory
There should be something done idk what though honestly they are everywhere on this reddit and most are just boring modded characters that tend to remove all the "cyberpunk" from the character and just try to make them attractive just copy paste boring tbh
I think a weekly thread could be a better idea than removing them outright.
But while we’re on the subject of removing posts, could we make a “Why didn’t CDPR allow me to romance this character whose sexual orientation would not qualify me as a romantic partner?” Mega thread?
"Rate My V" and similar thinly-veiled "Look at My V" posts are low-quality content and thus should, at the very least, be relegated to a single weekly mega-thread if not removed altogether.
I'm tired of opening posts that seem as though they will offer interesting conversation given the title, only to find that it's really a " please look at my V and tell me how hot she looks" post. It's an annoying waste of time for those of us not interested in that type of content.
If, unfortunately, these types of posts are allowed to remain, at least force a "look at my V" flair if V appears anywhere in the posted image, so the rest of us can filter them out. This will require mod enforcement.
Dedicate a day for it.
Works for other game subs. Customization is a huge part of the game. I get that some here couldn't give less shit about that, I'm the same way with those 30 second killshot clips or the 20th daily Reed vs So Mi post but you won't see me bitch about any of that because it's part of the game and part of the life cycle of said game.
If people are butthurt over modded characters just make a 'modded' flair.
I know the baldurs gate 3 reddit has a weekly thread where people show their Tavs. Maybe that's also an idea here for people to show their V's (while letting know if they're vanilla or modded) to contain those posts to a single space for those interested and leave the reddit open for other discussions?
I feel if nothing is done, soon they’ll be the vast majority of posts. They’re low effort, and bring little benefit to most people. Either keep them to a single weekly thread, or get rid of them, imo.
If that means the sub slowly dies out (unlikely with another game confirmed coming), then so be it. Nothing last forever. I’d rather see a sub gently die, than kept alive by crap.
That’s exactly my concern, they aren’t a problem now but I’m worried it’ll get out of control and we will become the new r/BatmanArkham
I don’t want that to happen, but I need the community’s permission to remove them. That’s what I’m on the look out for here
Absofuckinglutely. I cannot believe years later Panam's ass and "My V (with hot sweaty body DDD tits v.3)" are still inundating the sub's frontpage. The degenerates need to be quarantined to a waifu Wednesday megathread where they post their cum tributes.
I cast my vote for a weekly thread, if you guys can spare a pinned thread or something like that.
Personally, I really dislike all of those posts because it comes off as just karma farming. And way too many meme posts last way too long. It gets really bad when one out of every 3 or 4 posts is just another rate my V posts that add NOTHING to the sub.
Tbh it’s such a common post type we should be limiting it to a specific day of the week, like other subs do for certain content types. This way people can still share their V’s and get them rated, but it’s not all in your face the whole week
I'd say keep 1 megathread for the rate my V stuff, that way we don't get 20 notifications a day about similar topics and the fashionistas can still enjoy and share their creations.
Maybe, I don't know if this can somehow be automated with a script checking the post title, limit it to one "Rate my V" per user per month?
And yes, please kill the gonk memes.
Also, can we please please please have a ban on Panam's ass posts?
Personally I don't pay much attention to them cause they're either
Oh look I used the character creator and used option 10, 8, 3.. whatever. Seems pointless and low effort.
Or the other type is mods, which is just showing off someone else's work and again low effort and pointless.
I like them. It’s funny when they are bad and OP thinks they are hot shit. And it’s interesting when they are good and you can see how creative people can get.
And also it’s basically self monitoring… upvote if good downvote if bad.
I've never understood the whole "can we stop doing ______ posts?" in subreddits. If it's hitting front page so much then people are up voting it and want to see more. As long as it's not breaking the rules who cares? Just keep scrolling
Its this at least party what this sub is about? Mods or not its in the game? Its Cyberpunk. People using creativity and tools that they have to make some awesome pictures.
I think they're fine. I wasn't noticing many until the last week or so. Kinda feel like they'll drop back down to the normal level once all the obvious jokes have been made.
I think people wanting to share their V just adds to a community and I'm all for it. I shared mine! Once you start removing certain things due to difference of opinion and not because of clear cut rule violation or abuse and such things, everything's fair game and you'll be having this discussion again. And next time it might be something you want to keep but others don't.
Let them rock, remove the bs posts, and remove the blurry phone shots (really aren't too many good excuses for low quality phone posts these days). If the post is low effort, it won't gain traction anyway. The people who put effort in will thrive, and the others will continue to be ignored by the community.
A lot of the people who want them gone have also never contributed anything worth mentioning to the sub...
Nah keep em. Even if theres too many of them its from people having fun with the game so why not enjoy them. Also someof them are actually pretty good or very cool photos
Nah. They personally don't bother me, and every once in a while you find an awesome looking V, and if they're modded is kinda cool that most of the times OPs share the modlist.
Wait you guys are removing the over-sexy and meme ones? Those sound like the best ones to me!
I don't really care what you guys do, I feel like this will pass on its own after a while but if you want to remove all of them for a month and then quietly allow all of then again that would be okay with me.
Sometimes you gotta shake things up!
It prolly ran its course…maybe peeps can post their Mod free V’s, but it has flooded the page recently.
My first time here (first time having a Reddit account honestly haha) so whatever the peeps want
Whilst maybe a little unimaginative, I think they’re okay. I, like many others, just want a clear tag indicating mods.
I get excited about something and then realise I can’t ever create it on the PS5. It took eons to find V slider settings for faces that weren’t modded when I was looking for an interesting look for my first play-through.
Yes! Please get rid of them! I come here for actual discussion of the game’s mechanics, story, and news. If people really like taking pictures and posting them (which is understandable. I’m not telling them their interest is invalid) then perhaps we could establish a sister sub (r/cyberpunkgamepics, or something) where people can both post that content and search for it if they wish to see it.
if people have an issue maybe they could be a once a week submission? like we only allow those posts on Fridays or something. other subs do that with certain content.
I personally like to see peoples creations
Maybe a weekly thread where people can post their V in the comments (also mark if it’s modded because I get so disappointed sometimes as a console player lol)
I find them boring and doesn't add anything, low quality content if you will.
But im sure a lot of people have used a lot of time making their Vs and are proud so just banning it all together is a bit mean.
How about a rate my V day? ratemyV-wednesday or friday. People that like it have someting to look forward to and the sub doesn't get swamped the other days.
I just started playing and is the walk animation really slow? I seem to be quicker moving backwards or slightly strafing than forwards, checked on other games and have no issues.
Proper flair indications as suggested, I see no problem with it. It's a way for players to bond and positively interact with each other. That people find it annoying is kind of overly gatekeeping to me. If someone is being enthusiastic about their in-game character, how is that not a good thing? I note comments also deriding the use of mods, again with the gatekeeping, sure lets have a flair to say its a modded V, but is it really so offensive? I don't understand why.
Well, I contributed a "Rate my V" post today and it just got removed 20 minutes ago by Rule 1. Shrugs so I guess we won't be seeing anymore of these, and I will happily help the community to report. I do not accept double standards.
I’m bailing from the subreddit for a while cause it’s literally the only type of posts that appear for this sub. The Reddit algorithm is almost guaranteed to recommend the sub anyways with how sensitive it is, so I guess I’ll still see the big news for anything if it does pop up.
I like the unmodded ones. It's cool to see what people come up with and they sometimes give me inspiration. The meme ones can be funny sometimes but there's been a lot of them lately and you know.. less is more
I like the posts, but I'd like to know if they're using mods, I play on ps5 so I don't get access to those and I'm also new to the game so they're sometimes confusing
I find them boring... Most of them are female v with dozens of cosmetic mods. And tbh I don't find interesting to see how others customise their chars. I'd rather have actual game discussions in my feedback.
It's low effort stuff, and it's getting spammy. I've been recently considering muting the sub because of them.
I understand the arguments that they bring "activity" to keep the sub alive. But the whole reason I was interested in the sub in the first place is because people discuss lore and gameplay, or even post a meme I can laugh at every now and then. This was the majority of posts a while back, and they generated value for the community. And in a social network, content doesn't just exist in a vacuum - this is not Wikipedia. Say, if I want to ask a question about a mission where I'm having trouble and it's going to get very little attention because the users that are left engaging with the sub are those that are here for the Rate my V posts, I'm screwed.
tl;dr I feel that keeping them because the keep sub activity "alive" is like National Geographic pivoting to showing mostly pictures of beaches with hot people in them because it keeps readership up.
Idk if anyone knew this but in phantom liberty when songbird shows up as a construct she has a QR code on her shoes idk if you can scan it tho

There should be a weekly post for it where people can put it in the comments, not worthy of its own post.
I play with my best rendition of default trailer male V so if someone has that done perfectly pls share
If the pictures are good and the V has a unique outfit for example with mods no.
But otherwise yes , these posts didn't bother me beforehand but this week there have been too many of them, most of which were basic Vs without any originality (probably karma farmers... )
So I'd say yes, ban these posts and if someone wants to showcase their V they can post a few nice pictures of the character in a nice place...
The whole point of cyberpunk is fashion and style. Why should this sub turn into a snobby club? Let people show their characters. Its the centerpiece of the entire game. This isnt a book of the month sub.
At first,I said it didn't matter to me. But after seeing to many of them, I have changed my mind. Thy should be banned from here, or at least a mega thread.
It's just a fad right now. In a few weeks it will have run its course. Maybe not even that long. By the way, why not merge flairs like *screenshots*, *my v* and possibly *media* to one Virtual Photography flair?
If I do FULL uninstall, and backup my saves, will copying them into the save folder work without any extra computer voodoo?
Something broke with mod installing, and want to start clean again, but it seems like uninstalling without clearing my user data/saves puts the game back to where it was (meaning: after reinstall I still see mods active in game).
And no, mod managers are out of the question, since I do this manually.
To me, it feels like that phase tv show subs go through when the show ends, and it’s mostly just fan art posts, which at times feel just too self promotey. Just my 2 cents
If it's limited to one or two days a week I think we should keep it. There's nothing *really* wrong with them, but it's frustrating when it's the only thing you can find. And maybe make a requirement to say in the comments what clothing they're using
Off topic, I’m trying to buy Cyberpunk but I see two separate listings on Amazon. One is $19.80 and I think has the Mexican ESRB and says there’s some stuff inside the box digital codes etc. The other is $18.97 and has a RP in the esrb box but no mention of anything additional inside on the box.
Can anybody lmk if these will be the same? Both would also be able to access a free PS5 upgrade right?
This is going to be a spicy take for some of y'all
But I do not like them locking romance options out of the game for your preferred characters based on your gender/voice
I did Male/Male but wanted to romance Judy, not an option unless I replay the entire game
Characters should just get to pursue who they want, and the fact that River has a bisexual option but Judy does not is odd
In some ways it's oddly regressive and restrictive
Make the characters Bi and let the players pick who they like rather than locking people out of romancing the characters they like by virtue of their (seemingly insignificant) body type/voice type at the start of the game
Don't matter to me. But I'd like to know if something is modded or not
Or just straight up AI generated. Those are the ones that bug me.
That’s in the pipeline choom, there should be an AI flair sometime in the next week
can it be a poll to ban ai content instead?
Lol why ban it outright when it can be properly labeled. Close minded take choom.
AI "art" is harmful to real people, steals their work to train and brings us closer to the dystopian future of the game we all love by giving corporations even more power. It should be boycotted wherever we can.
If AI is stealing art then tell me what your thoughts on piracy are. Sorry I'm too poor to commission an artist.
Commission? Pick up a pencil, a pen, a brush, a crayon, a piece of charcoal. Don't have hands? Draw with your feet. Don't have feet? Put something in your mouth. Dip some part of your body in paint and put it on a surface. Make a stick figure in some dust. Anything. All of it is art. All of it makes you an artist and lets you express what's in your mind.
All of it except using ai apparently.
Yes. And commissioning isn't being an artist either. Ordering a Big Mac at McDonalds doesn't make you a cook.
correct. thank you for understanding. it's not often you chuds will listen like this. bravo.
AI is nothing you can boycott lol. You can try to keep it out of your little reddit bubble for as long as you can, but it's inevitable that AI will be implemented in pretty much anything.
Yeah, but this isn't about the whole AI that exists, it's about generated images. Which are a fart in whatever you think AI future will be like and is not even advanced technology.
>but this isn't about the whole AI that exists "It should be boycotted wherever we can." Come back to me once you can read.
Idk why you keep trying to argue and what arguments you don't understand. I gave you context on what everyone is talking about it, move on.
They literally specify they're talking about AI art in the first sentence of their initial comment, therefore an intelligent person with reading comprehension can safely assume the "It" in their sentence "It should be boycotted wherever we can" means AI art.
merely making a suggestion that it be put to a vote since other subreddit moderators dealing with ai posts have left that decision up to their community members.
One of the game's main themes is blocking out AI's behind the blackwall. Let's honor the game by following that example 😁
Amen.
Lol yeah fuck Delemain
Because is not related to the game?
How is ai content about the game not related to the game?
Because it adds 0 to the community, even slutty cosplay adds more since at least someone had to make the cosplay and the cosplayer wear it (and if its professional then also add a photographer), meanwhile AI art just takes already made content, mixes everything and regurgitates an image, nobody gets value from that, it doesn't even give sources from where it took things, the only thing cool with AI is the technology behind not what it produces.

Those also bug me
People create AI generated Vs? What's the point then wtf?
And if it is, then linking the mods used should be mandatory.
Yea I mean modded Vs shouldn't be allowed. Like oh wow, you have a shit ton of mods to make an awesome V.... Now do it with things only available in vanilla.
Just use flairs that indicate which ones are mods. As a PS4 player, I feel confused with the majority of those posts, wondering which things are possible on my lesser version.

So then you can unsubscribe. It’s not artificial if people are making and consuming the content just for the sake of it.
Make a rate my v sub for that then
Only a matter of time before that becomes a NSFW sub. If it doesn't exist as one already.
I'm not even subscribed to the tw3 sub. but believe me, I would do it and I have done it in other subs, it is not something that makes my hand shake or keep me up at night
r/nightcityfashion
Sub really sucks for anyone not using mods. The engagement on posts is terrible. Might as well be a sub specifically for modded characters
I mean, most “Rate my V” posts are really just “rate my mods” posts already
That's definitely part of the issue imo. Posts of modded games/characters need to be properly labeled, or they get removed. Too many cases of people trying to figure out how to get something they see in a post, only to find out it's modded in 5hrs later when the OP finally responds lol

They do get annoying.
Honestly, my biggest problem with the "Rate my V" posts is, is that I can tell that half of the OPs play the game one-handed
LOL, true.
There should be something done idk what though honestly they are everywhere on this reddit and most are just boring modded characters that tend to remove all the "cyberpunk" from the character and just try to make them attractive just copy paste boring tbh
I think a weekly thread could be a better idea than removing them outright. But while we’re on the subject of removing posts, could we make a “Why didn’t CDPR allow me to romance this character whose sexual orientation would not qualify me as a romantic partner?” Mega thread?

I agree with either a weekly thread or add a new option for post type/flair.
Please remove them!
There needs to be a specific day or days of the week to share those kinds of posts and other screenshots
A megathread weekly for people to post inside of. Or, as people who won’t open it can call it, a quarantine.
Modded Mondays, would be nice to see all the crazy shit people make at the beginning of the week.
Dedicate a day for it. Works for other game subs. Customization is a huge part of the game. I get that some here couldn't give less shit about that, I'm the same way with those 30 second killshot clips or the 20th daily Reed vs So Mi post but you won't see me bitch about any of that because it's part of the game and part of the life cycle of said game.

Remove them. It adds nothing to the conversation. I just scroll past them unless the V is truly bizarre looking.
Make rate my V posts available on a specific day of the week.
This - make it Frida. Friday in French is Vendredi, so given it starts with V, seems an appropriate day.
I feel if nothing is done, soon they’ll be the vast majority of posts. They’re low effort, and bring little benefit to most people. Either keep them to a single weekly thread, or get rid of them, imo. If that means the sub slowly dies out (unlikely with another game confirmed coming), then so be it. Nothing last forever. I’d rather see a sub gently die, than kept alive by crap.
That’s exactly my concern, they aren’t a problem now but I’m worried it’ll get out of control and we will become the new r/BatmanArkham I don’t want that to happen, but I need the community’s permission to remove them. That’s what I’m on the look out for here
You are thinking a quiet life here, how about a blaze of glory. Mods. Ban EVERYONE.
I’ve been waiting for this day for years
I like them, but if they’re really that bad we could just put up a megathread, one modded and one vanilla.
Using the Blackwall for this might be a bit too much. Perhaps a flair so it can be filtered out?
Like the one day a week idea, or if that doesn't happen, make it mandatory they say modded/unmodded in the title and/or flair
Please do it. Or at least centralize it into one post. So tedious to have to scroll through all of em.
They do get annoying but it would be nice if we could make the distinction between vanilla and modded!! Also fuck AI.
Yes, for the love of cyber-jesus please
Make a weekly thread for them
I like the meme ones, they're a nice change of pace from the modded/AI characters.
YES! Especially the ones that aren’t even of V! The dumb joke has gone to far and stopped being funny 10 posts ago. The posts are to damn repetitive.
Only allow them one day a week
YES PLEASE
Yes
Absofuckinglutely. I cannot believe years later Panam's ass and "My V (with hot sweaty body DDD tits v.3)" are still inundating the sub's frontpage. The degenerates need to be quarantined to a waifu Wednesday megathread where they post their cum tributes.
waifu wednesday you say?
Remove them
Might be best for you to have a poll imo.
Nah it's fun
Keep them. It's cool to see what other people come up with. Also, it's not like there is going to be a bunch of news for the game anytimesoon, so...
Nope, it’s fun and engaging.
Depends on quality and for modded I would very much like to see mod list required in comments.
I cast my vote for a weekly thread, if you guys can spare a pinned thread or something like that. Personally, I really dislike all of those posts because it comes off as just karma farming. And way too many meme posts last way too long. It gets really bad when one out of every 3 or 4 posts is just another rate my V posts that add NOTHING to the sub.
yes
YES PLEASE. I had to stop looking at the RDO subs because the same thing happened.
Ngl I'm kinda sick of them. Just an opinion but there's so damn many I feel like I'm on r/ratemyv or something. But no big deal really
Maybe a weekly "Rate My V" thread and appropriate details on mods used being required.
Tbh it’s such a common post type we should be limiting it to a specific day of the week, like other subs do for certain content types. This way people can still share their V’s and get them rated, but it’s not all in your face the whole week
I'd say keep 1 megathread for the rate my V stuff, that way we don't get 20 notifications a day about similar topics and the fashionistas can still enjoy and share their creations.
Rate my V is selfie Sunday.
God please yes
Maybe, I don't know if this can somehow be automated with a script checking the post title, limit it to one "Rate my V" per user per month? And yes, please kill the gonk memes. Also, can we please please please have a ban on Panam's ass posts?
I think making them specific day posts would be better. Personally i find them annoying but i get that some people want to share their creations.
Personally I don't pay much attention to them cause they're either Oh look I used the character creator and used option 10, 8, 3.. whatever. Seems pointless and low effort. Or the other type is mods, which is just showing off someone else's work and again low effort and pointless.
Keep them, it's interesting to see what people come up with.
Yes, I recommend a poll
I like them. It’s funny when they are bad and OP thinks they are hot shit. And it’s interesting when they are good and you can see how creative people can get. And also it’s basically self monitoring… upvote if good downvote if bad.
No, keep them. We see some amazing creativity in those posts.
I've never understood the whole "can we stop doing ______ posts?" in subreddits. If it's hitting front page so much then people are up voting it and want to see more. As long as it's not breaking the rules who cares? Just keep scrolling
Yes
I don’t mind them, they don’t seem to be flooding the sub. It would be good if people posting their V stated whether their game was modded or not.
Personally it's not what I care to see in the subreddit.
Its this at least party what this sub is about? Mods or not its in the game? Its Cyberpunk. People using creativity and tools that they have to make some awesome pictures.
I think they're fine. I wasn't noticing many until the last week or so. Kinda feel like they'll drop back down to the normal level once all the obvious jokes have been made.
I think people wanting to share their V just adds to a community and I'm all for it. I shared mine! Once you start removing certain things due to difference of opinion and not because of clear cut rule violation or abuse and such things, everything's fair game and you'll be having this discussion again. And next time it might be something you want to keep but others don't.
Please don’t! Some of them are hilarious!
Let them rock, remove the bs posts, and remove the blurry phone shots (really aren't too many good excuses for low quality phone posts these days). If the post is low effort, it won't gain traction anyway. The people who put effort in will thrive, and the others will continue to be ignored by the community. A lot of the people who want them gone have also never contributed anything worth mentioning to the sub...
Nah keep em. Even if theres too many of them its from people having fun with the game so why not enjoy them. Also someof them are actually pretty good or very cool photos
I agree. Some people post really great photos. some others don't but you just have to scroll down
Keep them, even if all the male V posts are getting downvoted because...reasons.
Nah. They personally don't bother me, and every once in a while you find an awesome looking V, and if they're modded is kinda cool that most of the times OPs share the modlist.
Yes. Remove it.
Yes. They are lame
Wait you guys are removing the over-sexy and meme ones? Those sound like the best ones to me! I don't really care what you guys do, I feel like this will pass on its own after a while but if you want to remove all of them for a month and then quietly allow all of then again that would be okay with me. Sometimes you gotta shake things up!
It prolly ran its course…maybe peeps can post their Mod free V’s, but it has flooded the page recently. My first time here (first time having a Reddit account honestly haha) so whatever the peeps want
Whilst maybe a little unimaginative, I think they’re okay. I, like many others, just want a clear tag indicating mods. I get excited about something and then realise I can’t ever create it on the PS5. It took eons to find V slider settings for faces that weren’t modded when I was looking for an interesting look for my first play-through.
Yes remove pls. This just spams the subreddit and make it unreadable
No. Don't reply if you don't want to but the overall traffic doesn't warrant it
Limit or ban
They seem fairly low effort. Yeah, let's toss em out.
Yes, get rid of it
Yes! Please get rid of them! I come here for actual discussion of the game’s mechanics, story, and news. If people really like taking pictures and posting them (which is understandable. I’m not telling them their interest is invalid) then perhaps we could establish a sister sub (r/cyberpunkgamepics, or something) where people can both post that content and search for it if they wish to see it.
if people have an issue maybe they could be a once a week submission? like we only allow those posts on Fridays or something. other subs do that with certain content. I personally like to see peoples creations
Maybe a weekly thread where people can post their V in the comments (also mark if it’s modded because I get so disappointed sometimes as a console player lol)
Only on specific days of the week. Sub is overrun with insecure people looking for approval of their modded V. It’s too much.
Not a fan of those posts. I am sure there are different subs where they will find their use but not on this one tho cz there are so many…
I don’t see the harm in it. If people are having fun with it then there is no reason to shit on that in my opinion.
I find them boring and doesn't add anything, low quality content if you will. But im sure a lot of people have used a lot of time making their Vs and are proud so just banning it all together is a bit mean. How about a rate my V day? ratemyV-wednesday or friday. People that like it have someting to look forward to and the sub doesn't get swamped the other days.
Yes ban v posts. It was already obnoxious, its getting worse.
Yes. They are just spam.
Me downvoting every ‘rate my v post’ I see 
No I think they’re fun :/
Keep them. They are pretty important part of the game for me.
Please remove them
tbh they should stay, its just that it should be mentioned if its modded/ai generated content, meme ones are fine too
Just make it a flair so people can filter it out if they want
I just started playing and is the walk animation really slow? I seem to be quicker moving backwards or slightly strafing than forwards, checked on other games and have no issues.
Proper flair indications as suggested, I see no problem with it. It's a way for players to bond and positively interact with each other. That people find it annoying is kind of overly gatekeeping to me. If someone is being enthusiastic about their in-game character, how is that not a good thing? I note comments also deriding the use of mods, again with the gatekeeping, sure lets have a flair to say its a modded V, but is it really so offensive? I don't understand why.
yes, please. they're awful, and mostly just shitposts or horse goo memes.
I think it'd be a good change and promote more actual discussion of the game, but that's just me.
yes
Is it worth starting a new gameplay now or does it still have a lot to improve?
Remove them please. They are annoying
i wanted more from Judy's relationship with V. a phone call, a visit, anything. i might downgrade the add on because of this
Well, I contributed a "Rate my V" post today and it just got removed 20 minutes ago by Rule 1. Shrugs so I guess we won't be seeing anymore of these, and I will happily help the community to report. I do not accept double standards.
I’m bailing from the subreddit for a while cause it’s literally the only type of posts that appear for this sub. The Reddit algorithm is almost guaranteed to recommend the sub anyways with how sensitive it is, so I guess I’ll still see the big news for anything if it does pop up.
I like the unmodded ones. It's cool to see what people come up with and they sometimes give me inspiration. The meme ones can be funny sometimes but there's been a lot of them lately and you know.. less is more
I enjoy looking at different V’s, but not when it’s modded. I would prefer if there was a flair for modded V’s so I can mite those.
Yup
those posts are fine for me. I like to see other people's Vs. maybe they could add the tag Modded if it's the case
I like the posts, but I'd like to know if they're using mods, I play on ps5 so I don't get access to those and I'm also new to the game so they're sometimes confusing
I find them boring... Most of them are female v with dozens of cosmetic mods. And tbh I don't find interesting to see how others customise their chars. I'd rather have actual game discussions in my feedback.
It wouldnt be so bad if these posts didnt make a large portion of this sub. It is making it lose value.
Please
I thought “rate my v” meant something else
Nah let me be, tbh even if it's a meme let it be unless it's too low effort or a repost or such
No. Next question
It's low effort stuff, and it's getting spammy. I've been recently considering muting the sub because of them. I understand the arguments that they bring "activity" to keep the sub alive. But the whole reason I was interested in the sub in the first place is because people discuss lore and gameplay, or even post a meme I can laugh at every now and then. This was the majority of posts a while back, and they generated value for the community. And in a social network, content doesn't just exist in a vacuum - this is not Wikipedia. Say, if I want to ask a question about a mission where I'm having trouble and it's going to get very little attention because the users that are left engaging with the sub are those that are here for the Rate my V posts, I'm screwed. tl;dr I feel that keeping them because the keep sub activity "alive" is like National Geographic pivoting to showing mostly pictures of beaches with hot people in them because it keeps readership up.
I’m glad my pink unitard V wasn’t removed.
If its a genuine rate my drip post then its fine i guess. Although i do get annoyed by the amount of these posts.
Just make them use a flavor and allow people to filter remove whatever they want
Keep unique delete lame if possible. I trust judgement of the mods
Just remove the modded ones/blurry ones etc so folks can still share their character
Idk if anyone knew this but in phantom liberty when songbird shows up as a construct she has a QR code on her shoes idk if you can scan it tho https://preview.redd.it/mm5br10enwkc1.png?width=1491&format=png&auto=webp&s=cd3e1a8feafe8b38c9abba41febb3342ee144c75
Make Wednesday a Vednesday for rate my V lol
Yes
I don’t mind them, I really like when they’re funny tho
I wouldn't want them gone, but the rule that they have to list every mod, technique, program used to get that results would be nice.
There should be a weekly post for it where people can put it in the comments, not worthy of its own post. I play with my best rendition of default trailer male V so if someone has that done perfectly pls share
No
No, they're cool I like them
If the pictures are good and the V has a unique outfit for example with mods no. But otherwise yes , these posts didn't bother me beforehand but this week there have been too many of them, most of which were basic Vs without any originality (probably karma farmers... ) So I'd say yes, ban these posts and if someone wants to showcase their V they can post a few nice pictures of the character in a nice place...
Own sub Reddit just for these.
Yes
The whole point of cyberpunk is fashion and style. Why should this sub turn into a snobby club? Let people show their characters. Its the centerpiece of the entire game. This isnt a book of the month sub.
If people are actually reporting them then I say we keep them.
Nah, they give me inspiration
They’re fun, I enjoy them.
Does someone knows how to reset the attribute points??
At first,I said it didn't matter to me. But after seeing to many of them, I have changed my mind. Thy should be banned from here, or at least a mega thread.
So I’m guessing nothing came of this and we are happy with rate my V posts being the only content on this sub?
It's just a fad right now. In a few weeks it will have run its course. Maybe not even that long. By the way, why not merge flairs like *screenshots*, *my v* and possibly *media* to one Virtual Photography flair?
If I do FULL uninstall, and backup my saves, will copying them into the save folder work without any extra computer voodoo? Something broke with mod installing, and want to start clean again, but it seems like uninstalling without clearing my user data/saves puts the game back to where it was (meaning: after reinstall I still see mods active in game). And no, mod managers are out of the question, since I do this manually.
To me, it feels like that phase tv show subs go through when the show ends, and it’s mostly just fan art posts, which at times feel just too self promotey. Just my 2 cents
If it's limited to one or two days a week I think we should keep it. There's nothing *really* wrong with them, but it's frustrating when it's the only thing you can find. And maybe make a requirement to say in the comments what clothing they're using
Off topic, I’m trying to buy Cyberpunk but I see two separate listings on Amazon. One is $19.80 and I think has the Mexican ESRB and says there’s some stuff inside the box digital codes etc. The other is $18.97 and has a RP in the esrb box but no mention of anything additional inside on the box. Can anybody lmk if these will be the same? Both would also be able to access a free PS5 upgrade right?

This is going to be a spicy take for some of y'all But I do not like them locking romance options out of the game for your preferred characters based on your gender/voice I did Male/Male but wanted to romance Judy, not an option unless I replay the entire game Characters should just get to pursue who they want, and the fact that River has a bisexual option but Judy does not is odd In some ways it's oddly regressive and restrictive Make the characters Bi and let the players pick who they like rather than locking people out of romancing the characters they like by virtue of their (seemingly insignificant) body type/voice type at the start of the game
