What made CDPR think we would let that happen?
This mod brings Jackie back. He will live in Night City where he goes to various spots throughout the day and mind his own biz. Call him, and Jackie will show up to help with gigs. Guns Blazin'.

NEW: BIG UPDATE! Jackie can talk to you with real audio. And V will talk back
Just install & play and Jackie will talk to you in his own voice for a lot of interactions. (The recovery quest at the start is custom, only subtitles here)
These are the native voices, as was requested. Audioware or Wolvenkit workaround are not needed anymore. Enjoy!
Jackie's return is unlocked via a quest. Go to Vik's to start it.
Go to Vik's clinic to get info on what happened to Jackie.
You'll get a white waypoint and after that quest will be able to call Jackie's number again.
(Note: during this retrieval quest Jackie's voice over is not yet available because the quest uses custom dialogue.)
For the クレイジー cyberpunks among you
Now we also have Blaze of Glory mode: Fight your way out of Yorinobu's penthouse through the roof. Time to become goddamn night city legends. Get ready before you start The Heist and bring your best build. You'll need it. (Nod to the guy on YouTube who inspired the idea)
Next steps for improving this mod:
-
[]Fixing the soft block of Blaze of Glory mode[/]
[]Real quests and readable shards[/]
[]More dialogues (hopefully with voice acting!)[/]
[]Much more to come :)
