Sorry bro, I unplugged her. She's not coming back.

[-] Peter_Arbeitsloser@feddit.org 2 points 2 months ago

Haha, got me there bro, but no worries. Wait a sec sounds like someone knocked on my window brb-

[-] Shanmugha@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Appreciated too, just ping back that you are okay :)

So Detroit?

They cleaned up the game a lot by the end but I'm still sad it ended up more like an action game with very light RPG elements. I'd have loved a bit more depth.

Also still pissed they killed off my boy Jackie in the prologue >:(

I agree with you, but I also loved it as an action game too.

[-] Ptsf@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I do feel it ended up a bit shallow considering all the work they put into the scaffolding, but it's still such a solid game. I wish the devs would've had another few years to cook because all the core is essentially there, but with a little more tlc I think it could've been gta online level big and have had such a significant amount of longevity.

We all know the prologue was going to be like several hours and they got cheap and shortened it with a montage

[-] CheeseNoodle@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

iirc it did get proven that nothing in the montage was ever built though wording in early trailers call jackies death 'one outcome' so its more that he wasn't supposed to be garaunteed to die. Most likely with the AV on the roof being an alternate exit.

Can't wait to see how much of a broken mess this next one is

[-] LordWiggle@lemmy.world -2 points 2 months ago

Can't wait for the next bug simulator to come out.

Why the fuck we gotta keep playing in America? I HATE America, even if it's NU USA.. Garbage people. I won't be playing rehashed (all outta fresh ideas CDPR) capitalist triple-A slop.

[-] smegger@aussie.zone 2 points 2 months ago

Where else can you set a game where capitalism has gone wrong and excessive amounts of guns are available?

[-] _cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

Because the main setting for Cyberpunk 2020 is the United States, asshole. Go be a racist little shit somewhere else.

[-] doodledup@lemmy.world -1 points 2 months ago

Another USA setting would be boring though. He isn't wrong about that.

[-] DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 months ago

I mean we could do what Deus Ex HR did. Go across the globe... But that means the maps would be smaller

[-] Kolanaki@pawb.social 0 points 2 months ago

World ain't fucked up outside of America. What fun is playing cyberpunk in a literal utopia? 🤷🏻‍♂️

[-] DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 months ago

Is it confirmed??

That would be really awkward if only America was cyberpunkized and everywhere else is a socialist utopia

[-] _cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

No, the rest of the world has its problems too. The Soviet Union still exists, but it’s slowly turning into modern Russia and is basically ruled by oligarchs.

And that’s one of the better places to live. There’s a lot of places that no longer exist because they were wiped off the map or are unsafe for humans to even venture close to.

[-] leftzero@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 2 months ago

Is it confirmed??

Nah. Arasaka owns Japan, for fuck's sake.

It's safe to assume that the rest of the world is equally fucked, just probably with less guns, and with electric cars instead of those CHOOH2 guzzlers.

[-] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 2 points 2 months ago

I mean I agree with you in principle. The world is massive; how does Africa deal with a cyberpunk future? How does South America survive a nuclear apocalypse? An alien invasion in India?

It would be fascinating to see different cultures and these issues.
