📋 About This Mod
While 2. 0 made an effort to streamline the economy in Cyberpunk 2077, it's still chaotic and unbalanced. Pocket knives for a price of a car? Handguns for a price of an apartment? If you want more immersive experience and need more motivation to earn money in Night City, this mod is just for you.
Tested for 2. 0 and later versions only.

]Melee weapons are even cheaper, 70% to 85% cheaper than vanilla.[/][
]Sell prices start at 15% of the buy price, going up to 17. 25% at max street cred. Vanilla sell prices started at 10% for tier 1 and went down to 5% for tier 5 weapons.[/][
]Sell prices are lower than vanilla for common guns, but higher than vanilla for legendary. Guns remain one of the main sources of your income.[/][
]Melee weapons price was drastically decreased because it doesn't make sense that you can make a fortune selling pocket knives and steel pipes in Night City. Sell prices for melee weapons are generally lower than vanilla. Don't worry, katanas still worth something![/][
]Handguns are much cheaper than a sniper rifles, SMGs are cheaper than LMGs and so on.[/][
]Tech weapons are more expensive than power weapons and smart weapons are even more expensive than that.[/][
]Prices are affected by manufacturer (lore friendly) and adjusted even further individually for some weapons.[/][
