The final battle might be episode 7 (not 6) but yes, you could stop after 7 and think you’d watched the entire story. I’d say that’s a good plan.

I’m not sure either, he seems to be agreeing with your point (cyberpunk is a warning) but nothing in your post is about transhumanism. I don’t see any confusion in your post.

That reminds me… Steam has a workshop section for the Harebrained Scheme games and someone tried to reproduce the entire SNES game using the Dragonfall engine. It’s called SNES Reboot and I totally forgot I was gonna try playing it. Thanks for the reminder!

Totally agree. We need more shadowrun games in general, no matter where they’re set.

Do you know if GOG does similar “cyberpunk fest” sales?

I’ll always recommend The Ascent to anyone who hasn’t played it.
Also, Nobody Wants To Die is only $3.74 and it’s a cool little hard-boiled detective walking simulator (no combat).
Satellite Reign is only $3, that one’s a spiritual successor to the old Syndicate games (made by the original developer).

This takes place 50 years after Blade Runner 2049. I can’t imagine Harrison Ford would be in it… at least I hope not.

Sorry, I wasn’t referring to cyberpunk anime. There’s a short-lived sub-genre of live action movies that are called Japanese Cyberpunk. It’s basically movies made by Sogo ishii and his friends. So Burst City, Tetsuo: The Iron Man, 964 Pinocchio, Electric Dragon 80.000 V. They’re all crazy movies. This video does a good job of explaining them.

Thank you! I definitely won’t be wasting my time with it then.

Netflix published information about the four new Night City names across social media and in collaboration with various content creators. Weak Kingsley is described as a veteran Edgerunner who “now lives in the shadow of his former glory.” D is a Snack Nation Netrunner looking for revenge as he “hunts the killer who wiped out his clan.”

Roman Carax is the youngest of the group and is described as a “cinephile in search of real stories in a city that abandoned cinema for braindances.” Finally, there’s Talia Yang, an individual with corpo and Maelstrom ties whose “heart belongs to chrome and violence.”

Ha, I’m actually the one who recommended it to them on their discord. I just didn’t want to post here until I heard their thoughts. I’m glad you listen to that podcast too!

Cross-posting from !CyberMoe@ani.social , just in case anyone wanted to subscribe to a Lemmy community full of cyber girl artwork. Usually the posts are more sexualized than this but it isn’t NSFW.

I dunno, at the end of GitS Motoko spent some time staring blankly from a child’s body. I think they’d have a lot in common. 🤪

Ahhh, that would make more sense. Thanks!

That’s right, Smash TV! Good call, I always think of it as a SNES game but it did start out in arcades first.

I should’ve read the youtube description before posting…

Here’s what it says regarding the co-op:

Master the new Shell System: switch characters mid-combat to exploit lethal synergies and tear through enemies. Play solo or coordinate the carnage in online co-op with up to three players.

So it sounds like the single-player mode will have you controlling all three characters simultaneously but you can go co-op to have friends manage the other characters. Interesting.

Good idea, I’ll do that!

It’s too bad the last post on there was 8 months ago. There’s no way I can prop-up another community in an attempt to keep it active. I should probably sub to that community just in case though…

EDIT: Oh, you’re the one already attempting to prop-up that community! Nice work, I’ll sub for sure!

When did they move away from the skull logo? I expected the new logo on the SR4A version but I didn’t realize they’d already moved away from the skull logo in the original SR4.

Did you ever play the SNES version? How would you describe the differences between the SNES and Gensis games? I know they’re totally different but I never played either.
