Technical issues interrupted our first Cyberpunk 2077 stream in 2022, but I have got back up quite quickly and got to the second part of The Hunt! We have managed to gather all the clues and figure out where we can find Randy.

Cyberpunk 2077 is an open world RPG that I have co-created. As I love talking about design, storytelling, and psychology in games, I have started streaming on Twitch and discussing it all with my audience.

My goal is to share everything I have learned over a decade in the AAA games industry, openly exchange ideas, explain creative decisions and encourage the next generation of game designers and storytellers to create.
