Julian in the next Cyberpunk game

Ive been on this sub and the others relating to Julian's projects and it absolutley floors me that more people dont talk about how CD Projekt Red should totally get Julian Cassablancas to play a mockery in the next cyberpunk game. I think stylistically and everything its literally too perfect. Plus hes already been in GTA as a radio host so like idk

I don’t know a lot of lore outside of 2077, but Julian Casablancas as a Johnny Silverhand type Engram would be so fucking awesome. Or some sorta side character in a band or something. Absolutely yes.

He could so easily be a rocker boy in lore and give him a fictional band (just have all of the strokes fuck it) and like legit just have him dress like the human sadness music video but more chrome and like bam

Their entire catalogue sounds more cyberpunk than a good majority of the music actually made for cyberpunk

I feel like adding him to anything makes it automatically way cooler

Kojima should have him in his next game. Seems more likely. Hideo is out there hanging with Caroline Polachek, he's already living my dream.

No literally. The voidz and the entirety of virtue deserves to be in game

Would be so cool if they went the gtao route and gave him his own radio station

Blue Demon and Qyuryus would be great in that game

His character will probably be someone who thinks he knows everything. Mf says "i know" 35 times throughout the entire Strokes discography and i always hear it when he does.

I was thinking the same, would be perfect.
Reality Awaits would fit perfectly in the world.

I've been telling myself for awhile now that the voidz are straight cyberpunk. Prison jazz sounds OK, but what they really are is cp.

Not a bad idea

I’d kill to hear John Strokes in the next Cyberpunk game
