Don't Lose Your Mind[Trivia 1] is a Side Job in Cyberpunk 2077.
Walkthrough[]
If V encounters the traffic jam in City Center:
- A few days after helping Delamain recover their divergent vehicles, V encounters a traffic jam on the Ring Road in Corpo Plaza, City Center.[Notes 1]
- Upon approaching the traffic jam, V will encounter three Delamain Cab that have intercepted a Kaukaz truck, and Johnny Silverhand will project himself to talk to V. Johnny suggests that V try and contact Delamain to investigate further.
- When V calls Delamain, it quickly becomes clear to them what is happening. The virus that has been corrupting Delamain's systems has now also infected the core system, and Delamain asks V for help.
If 48 hours have passed after completing Epistrophy:
- A few days after helping Delamain recover their divergent vehicles, Delamain calls V to let them know that they are in need of help, as the virus they discovered has now also infected their core systems.
Upon arriving at Delamain Headquarters, V finds Delamain having difficulties communicating. It tries to open the doors toward the offices and garages but fails to do so. Unable to find any other ways to enter through the reception area, V leaves the building and manages to find an alternative entry point.[Notes 2]
Inside the building, V searches for a way to open the locked door that is barring their way. They manage to find a terminal, with which they can unlock the door.[Notes 3] As V treads through the hallway onto the workshop, they can hear multiple drones patrolling the area and attacking each other.
After managing to find a way across the workshop floor, V enters the control room. In the control room, each divergent Delamain tries to influence V by asking to be set freed by them, with the exception of the original Delamain, who asks V to reset the core.
As V approaches the core, Johnny projects himself in front of them, asking V to not reset the core.[Notes 4][Notes 5]
If you reset the core:
- V chooses to reset the core and restores the original Delamain.[Notes 4] Because resetting the core also wipes his memory, Delamain has no recollection of who V is, but is able to access previous logs to identify them as the person who has helped them get rid of the virus by resetting the core. After exiting the core, Delamain will transfers V ownership of one of the vehicles from their fleet, as has been declared by Delamain's "previous version."
If V hacks the core (requires a high Intelligence check):
- V chooses to hack the core and merges the divergent Delamain's with Delamain's core, creating a singular Delamain entity who has no other desire than to leave Night City.[Notes 4] Upon speaking with the entity, he will mention that he leaves his "one true son" to V, and state that he will remain at V's side until their dying breath, before bidding them farewell. After exiting the core, the remaining Delamain asks V to enter the cab, and will introduce themselves as "Junior."
If V destroys core:
- V chooses to destroy the core, and liberates the divergent Delamains, who flee from the garage of the facility.[Notes 4] Upon speaking with Johnny, he will mention that one of the Delamain Cabs has apparently stayed behind in the hangar. When entering the cab, he will introduce themselves as "Excelsior," and allow V to become their new "owner."
