Mateus Tomaskiewicz was interviewed for this one, and in a statement made about his work as a mission director for 2077 says
“It is largely a quality control position, but I believe one of the most interesting responsibilities is to review the game frequently and ensure that the missions do not conflict or contradict another in their Implementation” “There are a lot of dependencies between missions, especially on main story missions. We try hard to have missions that intertwine and compliment each other organically”. He later mentions in regards to the world of 2077 that “it’s a dystopian vision of the future, but gives us an opportuntiyy to play with various themes. We can play on serious subjects and show a distorted mirror of our current social problems. On the other hand, you have a myriad of art styles – a mixture of flamboyant advertisements, colorful communities, stylish bodies, insane gangs and so on.”
