23: Tourist Information: Santo Domingo

This episode takes Brian and Liz deep into Santo Domingo, one of Night City’s most complex districts in Cyberpunk 2077. Together, they explore the district’s key locations, quests, and characters, focusing on the fixer El Capitan and the heavy moral choices his gigs present. It’s a layered look at how setting, storytelling, and player agency intersect in meaningful—and often grim—ways.

• Quest Breakdown and Themes: Multiple side gigs are discussed in depth, ranging from morally complex encounters to emphasize themes of desperation, justice, and survival.
• Environmental Storytelling: The visual and narrative design of Santo Domingo’s districts, from its industrial factories and abandoned mega-buildings to emotional side quests tucked into side streets and rooftops.
