Only the Xbox version appears to have everything included on a physical disc. PS5 version has a PSN voucher included from what I have read.

I feel bad for Male V....boy did he cucked when it comes to advertising.
Why? He was the main version in ad material for the base game. Female V was the main version in ad material for the expansion.
fem V was still in presentations, first 45 mins of gameplay was with fem V f.i. where as they completely ignored male V everywhere after some point couple years ago, also as I said before in another thread

also that's one fugly fem V on the poster

Not even Bioware went as far with the whole femshep (who's overrated IMO) deal. At least M. Shep was still around and in promo stuff. CDPR has practically gone full Stalin unperson with male V.

It's actually kinda creepy. I mean, they even went as far as to CHANGE THE GOG GALAXY BANNER for the game's gamepage. That's just....why?

Oh, and all of this happened WAY before Phantom Liberty was a thing.

I don't really care about promos but when they make fem versions canon it becomes annoying; why the fuck are you invalidating my playthrough after you allowed the choice? most RPGs had gender choice and there were never even a "which one is canon?" question until ubishit came into the scene with Odyssey, started going downhill from there, this is only the beginning

Who is talking about canon? It's just marketing in the current time and we all see with Disney how this is going in the long run ;)!

its the case with ubisoft's odyssey and valhalla where fem versions are canon, not YET the case here yeah

also if you are talking about Disney movies/woke movies; a shitty agenda driven writer/manager can easily ruin a movie but games have a lot of shit going on for them for such people to easily ruin everything

Revan from KOTOR1 was made canonically male and the Exile from KOTOR2 canonically female. Years before AC: Odyssey. So much for not invalidating anyone's playthroughs :-D

Wasn't the issue with AC Odyssey that in a later DLC or in the next game it was revealed that the main character had kids, which can invaldiate the sexuality the player went with in the game?

I wasn't aware of them when/after I played them, I guess fewer soyboys were proudly declaring to jerking off to their PC on the interwebz back then

Also "Star Wars"...

It's especially funny considering KOTOR2's female playthrough was very unpopular because the female only companion you got was nowhere near as cool, useful, or integral to the plot as the male only companion.

Course, they retconned it as having both companions joining the exile. Still silly.

My point is, making rpg characters' gender 'canon' has been done since 2003 at least, long before the times of wokeness. It started with Revan, who was canonically male (also, according to what now is SW Legends, he later married Bastilla and had children with her).

Btw, CDPR never made any version of V canon. If anything male V was a hero of most trailers and his face was on the box of CP2077 base game, far more popular than Phantom Liberty.

You don't get it. The whole point is that now is "the times" so the same on the surface decisions could be made because of diffierent reasons.

May I remind you we've been talking about Cyberpunk 2077 - a game in which neither V is 'canon'?

Same with Mass Effect, too. Neither Shepard is canon and I seem to remember maleShep on the box cover.

It seems to me only Ubisoft does it in a really dumb 'woke' manner.

Lord_Potato you're either blind or being dishonest. Whatever suits you, I don't care. Whether CDPR are simply riding trends or doing what they're doing for another purpose don't matter. By the way, I wonder if the marketing team would change their strategy after the glorious The Marvels flop.

You're seeing things where there simply aren't any. Neither V is canon. You've been trained to search for wokeness so hard now you suspect it might hide in your closet or under your bed. Stop before it completely rots your brain away.

Again you're missing the point. It's not about which is canon, it's about how the game in question is advertising. Like, if you watch a PL trailer you'll see it's consist of girlbosses and niggers. That's it. And honestly, it's perfectly reflects the end product so I don't even blame them.
