The recently released Cyberpunk 2077 has opened up a truly limitless world for gamers, full of freedom of choice and non-standard storylines. In addition to the presence of a variable background of the character, which is responsible for the appearance of unique lines in the dialogues, the game forces you to make unexpected decisions and does not allow you to remain neutral. In the first such case, one has to choose between Dex и Evelyn.
Despite the imaginary importance of such a decision, the consequences of which should manifest themselves in the future, its outcome practically no effect for further narration. In essence, the player must make a choice based on internal sympathies for a particular character. This decision will only open access to new dialogues, which in a global sense will lead to the same results..
After the introductory mission, the main character (or heroine) goes to an impromptu training. After completing it, the player will meet Dexter Deshawn. He is a fixer - an intermediary between the customer and the mercenary in the criminal world. Thanks to the people of this profession in Night City, you can find a performer for the dirtiest work. Vee, being a representative of mercenaries, took on the execution of one such order: he will have to steal a biochip at Erinobu Arasaki himself. Failure to do so is tantamount to death.
The agony of choice can begin at the moment when Evelyn Parker, the customer of the entire special operation, decides to terminate the deal with the fixer and offer us cooperation directly. This dialogue will take place at the end of the mission "Cherche la femme«.
Evelyn will ask Vee to complete this task, bying the services of Dex. She argues that the fixer is just an intermediary with whom you need to share profits. Dexter himself did not comment on his attitude towards Evelyn, but mentioned her mysterious past.
Before the start of the operation to steal the biochip, it is necessary to decide on the side. Theoretically, in the future, Evelyn could become generous customer, which will allow you to refuse the services of Dexter without tangible damage to the wallet. On the other hand, at stake is reputation - the only truly important thing for a mercenary.
Point of non-return
The episode where V and Jackie meet Dex at the bar will be decisive. During the dialogue, Dexter will ask about the last meeting with Evelyn, and we will have a choice: talk about the offer Evelyn, or keep everything a secret.
Aftermath
There are two scenarios for the development of events:
- If you give away Evelyn, her opponent will thank us for our honesty and raise the bet to 40% from the reward for a successful operation. This fact will greatly please Jackie. Unfortunately, these plans will not destined come true.
- The consequences of any other choice will remain completely unknown. Outward benevolence and sympathy are the few qualities that managed to manifest themselves in Evelyn. Because of this, it is not possible to make any objective comparison with other characters. Material benefit is the only thing that can force the player to accept Evelyn's offer. After all, he does not have to share earnings with an intermediary. But telling Dex about the plans of the customer, you can experience a different feeling - guilt for possible sanctions that are more likely to be applied to the girl.
In other words, the developers made it so that we are faced with mental throwing and managed to take responsibility in case of a negative outcome. This was the key bet of the scriptwriters, who skillfully played this scene. The essence of choice lies in its complete absence. Poles from CD Project Red once again proved that they can bring intrigue and suspense almost from scratch.

“Despite the imaginary importance of such a decision, the consequences of which should manifest itself in the future, its outcome will have little effect on the further narrative.”
Unfortunately, this formulation applies to 95% of the decisions in the game.
There is no variability. So you can poke anything without hesitation.
The question is empty, the first one has a bullet in the head, the second is an opening of the veins in a cold bath, there is no real choice, simple torments that have absolutely no effect on further events, all the same, V will catch a bullet and meet Johnny.
But again, the question of wagering arises 🙂 Let us come up with it ourselves, but we must at least somehow enjoy the process):
Was there a choice? I so understand, that at a choice it is possible to accept the offer of this or that. In this case, there is no such possibility. You can "invest" in Evelyn, or remain silent, which will not have any effect on the further development of events. And if we had a choice, we could pull off the operation without Dexter. And this means that the developers had to file another version of this quest. Yes, and with consequences, from the offended Dexter.
it doesn't matter who you choose, there is essentially no choice in the game, the endings are the same
unfortunately, this can be said about most of the choices in the game
Well, in the Projects, this choice is poorly drawn, to be honest.
The impression remains that although we know that Dex is not an angel, but he gives us work, and many times it is emphasized that we have a reputation. And Evelyn, out of nowhere, suggests that we ruin this reputation just for the sake of money.
One way or another, but the plot with Dex \ Evelyn does not lead to anything. Both are sixes of a third force, presumably the Voodoo Gang, but perhaps the Haitians from Pacifica are someone's sixes. And what is the result? The main plot of the game takes us away from this.
Even shitty Ginny mother his Reeves from a bottle is just a tool, a dangling head, a test of empathy.
The true patterns and meaning of everything that happens eludes.
The topic has not been disclosed.
Even if you hand over Evelyn, you won’t get a cent - after you bring the chip to Dex, he decides to get rid of the problematic mercenary. And yes, Dex is not a crime boss. He is a fixer - an intermediary between mercenaries, who are quite legit in some moments, of the night city society, and customers. Even cops can turn to mercenaries. In short, either make articles using the brain, or don't do it at all.
Hello! Thanks for the detailed . Alas, we cannot cope on our own, sometimes we have to turn to the services of ordinary players or translate from English-language sites.
This author wrote 2 articles to us, you can see the result for yourself, so cooperation has already been stopped.
In the near future I will update the guide, I will add the information you specified
