So is the Witcher but they still gave us a nice farewell. Besides, most of the endings in cyberpunk felt unnecessarily bad, railroaded into a negative outcome. I really thought we'd get a merged ending at least, they even teased it with the delamain story, but nah.

You're more than welcome to be disappointed with the ending and the depressingness of it all, but these don't exist in a vacuum.

The Witcher was based off a series of books. People expect books to not consistently end in a depressing way.

2077 is based off a tabletop game, with a very outspoken creator, Michael Pomdsmith.

Mike has been surprisingly active in the subreddits related to 2077, Edgerunners, and the original tabletop game. If you like the setting there's some really neat "word of god" stuff he's shared if you care to look it up. Anyway, the point is that he's been extremely clear that happy endings don't happen in Night City. The only way is out.
