Ambient conversations in media that hit you like a truck.

Reggie and Woolie probably won’t see it in Cyberpunk as there’s not a real reason for them to check out the columbarium, other than to see the Edgerunner easter eggs.

However, if you’re lucky you may hear an ambient conversation between a kid and their dad that goes something like.

"But why? Why can't I talk to her?"

"Because mom got really sick and had to leave. But I know she's watching you from on high, and that she loves you very much."

"Preston says that his dad died and he can still see him and talk to him whenever he wants."

"Because Preston's dad... he didn't go to heaven like your mom."

"Preston says that is dad is in a place better than heaven - he's at Arasaka."

"Sweetie..."

"And he said that if we had more money, then mom could also be at Arasaka instead of in heaven. And then we could go and see her together every day."

"Honey, I'm sorry..."

I don’t think I’ve looked at the world of Cyberpunk the same way ever since hearing that conversation.

Can you guys think of other background conversations that have really stuck with you in games or otherwise?
