#I mean why else build Takemura up as a master at combat and then not have him train V

y'know I don't think adding a "Nomad + Goro" ending to the game would've been that hard: had a couple side missions with him where you discover some horrific truth about Arasaka and have us learn abt Saburo's engram earlier so we can discuss with him and BOOM -> seeds of doubt in his mind. It can also just be open ended, I wouldn't mind. Ideally I think it'd take time but the game isn't that well-developed most of the time so they can go for it
yes! i would have loved that. Takemura’s writing is appalling TBH, he has all this development and such an endearing relationship with V only for it to go exactly nowhere — possibly culminating in a death 10 minutes from the ending with no repercussions, and he’s never mentioned again? wha? having side missions, like you say, allowing us to get closer with him and discuss things like while he can always be grateful to Arasaka for taking him off the streets... it’s servitude and he deserves better... that would have been amazing. Plus Nomad!Goro would be hot af. Leather jacket, low ponytail... yeah.
Considering all the content that was scrapped to make way for Johnny, I wouldn’t be surprised if Goro once had a satisfying storyline that was thrown out back in 2018/2019. I mean, once upon a time CDPR hinted at being able to save Jackie’s life! 😩
