When John Wick himself gives you advice, you better be listening.

“The only limit to what you can do is what you are willing to become,” he adds.

Keanu’s character, Johnny Silverhand, plays one of the pivotal roles in the game’s story.

Furthermore, Reeves’ advice can have more meanings than one. As with any role-playing games, impersonating a character will also require players to make choices for it to progress the story. These choices will reflect on how we choose to portray our character morally in the game.

Recently, news broke of CDPR asking employees to work an extra day in the week in order to finish the development of the game in time for the launch date. Many fans, who have been waiting for the game eagerly, have admitted they wouldn’t mind waiting a little longer if it means no crunching for the devs and a better-finished product. However, it seems the studio is going ahead with the current schedule.
