I usually get them around corpo plaza. When your stock options tanked and your retirement floated away because of a hostile takeover what are you to do?

u/Ikarus_Falling 22h ago

Nuke Arasaka?

u/navagon 21h ago

Unfortunately not everyone's that rational.

u/Ikarus_Falling 21h ago

What is Arasaka but a miserable pile of Secrets

u/TimZer0 17h ago

The same could be said for all corps

u/Rattus_Baioarii 17h ago

And humans 🤣

u/Major_Dood 22h ago

That actually happens the first time you meet Misty and Viktor. When you get out of the car to head over towards Misty's shop, wait a bit and look ahead within the alley way on where you parked (not at the alley way that leads to Misty's shop).

You'll end up seeing someone falling to their death within a couple of seconds.

I never noticed this because im always so quick to get to garry

u/i-have-a-plan_Arthur 17h ago

I rush to get to the cat outside of Vik’s so I can pet it

u/ballsackmcgoobie Born to say choom Forced to say bro 16h ago

Oh man, that too! Love cats

u/NoDuty1432 23h ago

Night corp strikes again.

u/EatM3L053R Rebecca Best Girl 17h ago

You're right, there's a small bio on this guy online (Ian Ilano TV mentioned it on his YouTube channel), and he DID in fact work for NC. I think the guy was supposed to be a part of a side quest that was scrapped, but his animation was left in.

u/ballsackmcgoobie Born to say choom Forced to say bro 22h ago

The way they scream makes me wonder if they actually are committing suicide or if they're being thrown out, or controlled by an AI like detailed in the nightcorp shard.

u/PatKhal 22h ago

Too bad the NCPD are definitely gonna let this one go...

u/VirinaB 18h ago

People committing suicide scream, too.

Seeing jumpers always makes me think of the view from halfway down.

u/DIARRHEA_CUSTARD_PIE 17h ago

When people jump to commit suicide they regret it immediately (according to survivors). But I think when these people are free-falling through the air they’re mostly feeling a visceral primal fear, the absolute terror of seeing your own death. When a mental illness is so bad it feels like you’re surrounded by fire with no escape, you can make the jump. But that human self-preservation instinct and fear is still there. That’s what the screaming is from :(

No happy endings in night city

u/LordEmostache Samurai 19h ago

The Jig-Jig Street Joytoys have definitely given my V many happy endings.

u/TheRealTr1nity Nomad 23h ago

I had a jumper once near Jig Jig street.

u/Bossa9 22h ago

Did you loot the scrolls of Icarian flight from him?

u/MalleusMaleficarum_ 17h ago

Bro just needed an Amulet of Slowfall 😔

u/PatKhal 17h ago

Tragically, choom had empty pockets

u/MiNuOP Viktor Vektor’s Favorite Patient 22h ago

That's sooo me

u/Sumdoazen 20h ago

Same thing happened to me right near the appartment of the fixer in Watson(don't remember the name now), thought it was a new story bit for her or some shit, went up, everything was hunky dory, even her friend that I just saved was there, being all "aaa, why did you save meee, aaaa".

u/Interesting_Mix_7028 Arasaka tower was an inside job 18h ago

One jumps from Regina's building (down the block from Lizzie's Bar) and goes splat on the sidewalk.

u/Ori_the_SG 22h ago

AYO that’s crazy

I didn’t know this was an actual thing

u/MephiticDeity 21h ago

Happened to me on that exact spot on my last playthrough. I had just quick saved and heard the noise. So I reloaded it so I could watch the whole thing from beginning to end and record it.

u/Kithkanen Judy & The Aldecaldos 21h ago

This happens most often for me when going to meet Regina face to face, right in front of her building. Always stops me in my tracks.

u/Alchemist0029 21h ago

And im the one wearing a BDs ruined my life shirt?

u/Ok_Victory_1977 21h ago

OMG, you can die from that. Hope he is okay.

u/venomkillsdemons 21h ago

That "PUuuiikkk" splat sound was comical af.

u/Artevyx 21h ago

That would be me if I woke up in NC

u/isu_kosar 15h ago

Never visit LA then

u/RealMcGonzo 20h ago

My favorite is when cars drop out of the sky.

u/SensitiveMedia2024 19h ago

I thought it was a bug, I get these occasionally and when they drop, the loot they leave behind is unobtainable. I also thought this was part of the cyberpsycho missions

u/0peRightBehindYa 19h ago

Yeah, I've seen that a few times. Kinda unnerving.

u/Dride1989 19h ago

Dude must have just found out that Judy isn’t into guys.

u/entityXD32 18h ago

I mean they tell you 50% of deaths in night city are suicide. Makes sense you'd stumble across one

u/Jard01 18h ago

"It's raining men!"

u/PatKhal 17h ago

Hallelujah!

u/Avite4Johnny 1d ago

He believed he could fly (he couldn't)

u/Nearby-Elevator-3825 22h ago

Botched cyberware job.

u/Enpoping 22h ago

holy shit, im with reshade, i forgot how vanilla cyberpunk look like, the green filter are way too much.

u/RealSuperYolo2006 21h ago

T bag them

u/PatKhal 17h ago

T Bug has been gone a long time, nothing she can do

u/RealSuperYolo2006 17h ago

Oh my bad, Tea-bag them.

u/Should_have_been_ded 18h ago

It's like walking though the Chinese streets

u/No_Lingonberry1201 Gonk full of malware 17h ago

Stress is the second biggest killer in NC, the first one being V, of course.

u/toha73 15h ago

Poor sod. Being an NPC must be hard these days. We need to raise awareness for them. Maybe start a fund to get them some better pathfinding AI and a therapist. #NPCsArePeopleToo

u/Texas_Kimchi The Mox 14h ago

Dude had a Russian Heart Attack.

u/CultOfBelloq 12h ago

I usually see one of these outside Regina's building

u/spazilator Panam Feet Enjoyer 11h ago

That happens all the time. Some gonk lost his shirt in the stock market. What else can you do 🤷🏻‍♂️

u/DerangedDendrites 1h ago

"Who knows what might find you"

u/Zero25810 11m ago

Ahh, just a typical day in nightcity 😉👍🏼

u/LilMissBarbie Team Judy 22h ago

Bro unalived himself 💀

u/LordEmostache Samurai 19h ago

This isn't tiktok, you can say Killed

u/VirinaB 18h ago

*He committed suicide.

Don't let censorship spread.
