Real talk user. Why do you post this in every cyberpunk thread.

cuz i can homie

That's a lot of votes

buy why

nah, maybe some shitty protoversion but not full blown cp. sorry.

4 u

yes actually

I've spent the last 3 months researching it and its short history because I'm gonna make a game on it

literally stacks of books to read and tab and about 50 or so games to play and here I am shitposting

>because I'm gonna make a game on it

take inspiration from god and great tier

Cyberpunk by definition is high tech, low life. I think that can accurately describe a lot of Americans right now.

40% of americans are living under the poverty line so yeah...

already covered most of that, thank you though user

>omikron
>great
how

Yeah, but video games get it so wrong all the time

It's supposed to be like futuristic Noir. Not anime WOOSH BANG KAWAPAWWZA bullshit with a bodycount in the hundreds

Make sure to listen to synthwave and punk

Where the fuck is dieselpunk?

yes

>le comfy cyberpunk feels xDDD

Cyberpunk is actually about radical social changes

i like the pretty wallpapers and that's about it, i don't even know what the fuck it is

thanks for letting me know how it's called though, now i can find more

Read Neuromancer

>tfw getting a 1080 for Cyberpunk
Hurry up, it's been so long since TW3 already.

and burning chrome. he can skip snow crash

Cyberpunk is not even coming out this year. You could easily wait for the new generation of nvidia/amd cards to come out

Why's that spoilered? That book is bloody awful

Also.Pic Related is a fucking fascinating look at the social climate athat cyberpunk was inspired by

>1972 had fucking 1900 domestic bombings perpetrated by terrorist organizations

The fucking 70's were grimdark as fuck

Wait, forgot pic

Where to go to live the cyberpunk life?

Japan or is China closer to it now?

Human rights are a meme anyways.

Hong Kong or Japan. China is like a book cyberpunk world except the oppressive dystopia is in fucking real life and not a joke and you will not like it in china

>Barkley Gaiden that far down

>Perturbator - Future Club / Cyberpunk 2077 Edit
came buckets

>i'll never be able to pull off a raincoat with my height.

you don't have to be that tall to pull of a raincoat desu

kill yourself weeb faggot

real life doesn't correspond with your cyberpunk fantasies

Wow. Rude.

>be student in manhattan
>rainy as fuck outside these past couple days
>walk around at night listening to blade runner soundtrack
>feel like I'm living in the future

blade runner is actually my favorite movie

can't fucking wait for cyberpunk 2077, probably my most anticipated game at this point

Is there a more cyberpunk looking VR headset then the VIVE? Hope they don't ditch the look on future versions.

well i'm busy as fuck but i'm writing some futuristic ambient metal shit and i need some inspiration so i'll try

thanks

What caused the Resurgence of Cyberpunk, anons?

The genre was dead for a very long time, and recent works suffer the same fault of early Cyberpunk works in that the genre is so small that it's very hard to innovate or deviate. It's even worse now because we live in an age where we're about 10% towards a Cyberpunk future.

It's clear there's nothing left to find in such a small sub-genre, so why do people like it so much?

I hope not either. The headset itself isn't as comfortable as, say, the Rift, but it is a better experience overall.

Don't think we'll be getting any major hardware revisions for another year or two, at least. The things just came out less than a year ago.

Mild Cyberpunk: Tokyo
Actual cyberpunk with oppression, pollution and shit living conditions unless you're rich: China

NYC is hardly cyberpunk

So, what's the best cyberpunk game of all time? For me it's Deus Ex

It piggybacked on the wave of 80's nostalgia. You're forgetting that retro futurwave and vaporwave and shit also took off/made a comeback. It was only natural that cyberpunk ride with that too

We got the punk...but none of the cyber...Load of drek if you ask me.

System Shock

Steam punk is the most autistic laden fan base next to vorefags and bronies.

Not as much as Tokyo/China, obvs.

There's plenty of big neon signage and dense crowds among giant buildings. Of course, those things alone do not a cyberpunk city make, but it's as close as I'm gonna get without spending thousands on travel.

Going down to Chinatown or around St.Mark's Place (pic related) are prime spots.

>tfw you will never walk the alleys of Kowloon city, and buy shitty street food
>tfw you will never get into gang fights with high tech guns and androids
>you will never ponder the philisophical reasoning and existence of man, and their transition to cyborgism.
>you will never anger your boss and get your arm cut off and get a sick ass minigun arm.

I live for the future, hackermen.

We got none of the punk but the cyber is in testing stages.

1 or 2? Also does i heard tha it has jumpscares, is it true?

America is going to be bretty good at the cyber soon.

Dis nigga gets it. Just give it some time. We're making huge strides in the robotic limb field

punk probably isn't coming back any time soon, though if there's any time for anti establishment it's in the wake of a large public dissatisfaction in youth, such as a republican presidency

can you recommend any books on cyberpunk itself? i don't know how to describe my love for cyberpunk but i just need all of it NOW

>It's even worse now because we live in an age where we're about 10% towards a Cyberpunk future.
I think some people would put that estimate higher than 10%. Even if it is as low as 10%, I think we're still getting closer to a cyberpunk future. Technology continues to improve, but life continues to suck.

Our shiny sci-fi Jetson's utopia of decades past continues to become more of a bullshit fantasy with each passing year, and a cyberpunk future seems more and more likely, even if we are only 10% of the way there.

Maybe people think, 'wow, these cyberpunk authors were right and these other sci-fi authors were way too hopeful that technology would make our lives so much better.'

This is also a big factor, for sure. Maybe our shitty future/present makes us yearn for 80's nostalgia?

fiction or non? I've been researching the origins of the genre

for fiction just read anything william gibson, that's a good starting point

neuromancer is poorly written but it literally invented the genre, go pay your respects

Even if punk came back because of that it's not going to look like the stereotypical "punk" we know from way back. I think it'll have all of the attitude of a middle schooler who just discovered what the Misfits are but none of the drive to do anything

sorry for the "back in my day it was REAL punk" shit but that's how I feel about it

who knows what will come about to combat the low life high technology lifestyle? but something will

>Gemini Rue that high up the list

it was very solid and hit most of the notes, but why? It was pretty boring.

>robotic limb field

Not gonna happen.

>80's nostalgia?
yeah but it's all fetishized, innit? Most of the 80's looked a lot like the 70s which is also weird since we fetishize the 70s in the same way except for a few examples that everyone apes as being what defined the 80s

Try wearing a raincoat that actually fits

FUCK. you just reminded me i've still yet to read neuromancer. i need to get on that. and honestly i'll take anything you say, i dont mind nonfiction

yes and I want more good games with a strong cyberpunk setting or at least aesthetic

amazon.co.uk/Virtual-Geographies-Cyberpunk-Intersection-Postmodern/dp/9042009861

this book covers all the basics

will you need a roommate?
take me with you

Aw shit son I'm super ready for just growing limbs in vats. But that doesn't change the fact that the prosthetic industry is literally taking off right now

I forget the video but it was about putting sensors in the limb's ankle so it automatically detects whether you're running or climbing stairs and adjusts accordingly so you don't have a weird gait. It was pretty cool. Especially since they put deus ex music behind it

>they just sell socks at the sock man
I'm kinda disappointed.

Ramen?

...

I think we're already starting to see it come about, it's just in the form of shrill neon-haird landwhales and limp wristed hipster beta orbiters. People love to romanticize things like cyberpunk and dream about living in a world like that, but reality is much more irritating and not nearly as fun.

>the same fault of early Cyberpunk works in that the genre is so small that it's very hard to innovate or deviate.

Not really, people are just afraid of going nuts with it like John Brunner or Ian McDonald did

When Gravity Fails, The protagonist is the most Human cyberpunk protagonist ever


The Rifters Trilogy by Peter Watts, the setting is more dystopian than anything else but the main protagonist is a really interesting lass who gets really fuked over and takes revenge in a really fucked up way. They're free on the internet too

rifters.com/real/Behemoth.htm

ded genre.
New Bladerunner will do ok
GitS and CP 2077 will bomb hard.

thanks anons, i'll get cracking.

It's been dead for about 30 years yet media is still being made about it

The early 70's environental laws never get passed and the whole world looks like China but even worse by the time the novel takes place (Which is set in either the late 80's to mid 90's)


It's the most terrifying book ever written for a multitude of reasons mostly involving how eerily prescient it was, But one I'll point out is the President in the book is a total buffoon who deregulates the entire Energy sector to stimulate jobs and denies any issues with the environment at all when people are wearing Gas masks to fucking breathe in the cities. He literally exists as a corporate figurehead who jut spews meaningless politically incorrect buzzwords at people when they criticize him and is said to have been elected almost entirely by rural folk in the midwest who don't have to deal with raging environmental issues and the complete dissolution of society as much

Book was written in fucking '72

when the fuck is Cyberpunk 2077 coming out.

Cyberpunk is a dead as PC gaming is, that is Not at all but people keep insisting it is

probably holiday 2018

In 2077, duh.

2078

don't expect much info until late this year at least

release holiday 18 at best, likely early 2019

>it's a cyberpunk game where you play as the rebels, or as a government agent who defects

Can we have, just one time, a cyberpunk game where I can go around beating the shit out of degenerates and rebels? I want to be the oppressor for once.

Judge Dredd doesn't count.

It takes about 4 years to make a game like that and they didn't start work on it until after TW3 so you tell me.

Seems like it defeats the purpose if you need a heart donor.

It's going to explode again if the Blade Runner sequel is good.

Then again, it's got Harrison Ford and Ryan Gosling in it; people will watch it regardless.

...

It won't be good, Cyberpunk has actually never really been good in the regular sense, it's the style people like

If you change the setting and camerawork of blade runner the movie is shit

I wasn't aware that cyberpunk was in resurgance. I thought it was going strong since at least the mid 90s.

It's been steady but with the resurgence of synthwave and the surge in vaporwave aesthetic ideal genres are huge right now
