Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the most awaited action role-playing game developed by CD Projekt RED. There are some quests that are connected to each other. Completing the optional quests does provide more choices on the main quests. One such quest you will come across called “The Pickup” where the choices are connected to each other. Below you will find the outcome of those choices.

Cyberpunk 2077 Call Stout Or Not?

Stout is a Miletich agent whom you can call as an optional quest. When you get the pickup mission, your main objective will be to talk with Jackie. This quest and the quest after that where you go and meet Royce are connected, so if you call Stout and tell her about the Militech Bot that you are going to buy from Royce, she will offer you a Cred card and as you to pay Royce with that card.

You will get an option to ask her if the card is bugged and she will tell you “yes it is”. After that you have two options, either give the bugged cred card to Royce or remove the virus from the card. After that, you give a call Jackie and go meet with Royce.

Cyberpunk 2077 Give Bugged Cred Or Virus Free Cred

Paying out of our own pocket is out of the question, as you won’t have that much money at the beginning of the game. If you have removed the virus, Militech will know and swarm the place and you have to fight them.

You can give Royce the bugged cred, then he will know it is bugged and you have to fight your way out. In this choice, Royce will be a boss, because you didn’t kill him at the start. You can scan Royce’s weak points and kill him.

The best possible option is to have 6 body attributes and kill Royce at the beginning. In this way, you get to keep both the cred chip and the bot. And you have to fight your way through Maelstorm enemies.
