I wonder why techpriest don't all become cyberpsychos
Skill issue??
the degree of enhancement of flesh loving magos biologis would be insane in cyberpunk
queen laurel
yeah they just accept it
rich patrol
But magos are pretty logical, real cyberpsychos would be khorne berserkers
queen laurel
and also remember they have their brain replaced
a lot of their way of thinking is basically mechanical
rich patrol
Oh yeah cyberpsychos do still have a 100% unaugmented brain don't they
queen laurel
Oh yeah cyberpsychos do still have a 100% unaugmented brain don't they
Yeah I'm pretty sure since people in cyberpunk don't do anything outrageous in their brains they just stay as normal packs of flesh
rich patrol
That's a pretty dumb oversight tbh, how can a flesh mind handle a metal body
Either don't do it or go all the way
queen laurel
Either don't do it or go all the way
V has a chip that constantly rewrites their brain so that's one of the reasons why they don't go psychopathic, even though they have enough brute strength to pry open an elevator door with their hands

he's just a nut case
rich patrol
So we can't tell if it's psychosis or just smasher being smasher
queen laurel
a cyberpsycho can still think those that are aggressive killing machines don't but there are those that are just straight up think they're better than humans basically
rich patrol
Well by that description sounds like every tech priest ever
queen laurel
Well by that description sounds like every tech priest ever
Most of the time it's just a sense of losing their identity as a person
basically just stop seeing themselves as humans most of the time
no regard for preserving themselves
rich patrol
Cyberpunk is basically a primitive version of 40k enhancements

Not all cyberpsychos are physically violent. Some have fragmented personalities, some are kleptomaniacs, others are compulsive liars. But violence towards living things, especially people, is most common - wiki

Which is one of the dumbest plot points 💀
queen laurel
Smasher is a Psycho but he's the type that just thinks people are nothing more than lower than him
rich patrol
I think smasher would be considered very polite, charismatic and sociable in the mechanicus
queen laurel
The main attribute of being a cyber psycho is having your identity as a person lost to you
you basically just see yourself as a better machine
rich patrol
So iron hands
queen laurel
i guess
rich patrol
But seriously are there tech priests that did go insane because of too much augmentation
Cawl has less than a pound of flesh on him and is taller than GUILLIMAN but he's still sane. Relatively
queen laurel
But seriously are there tech priests that did go insane because of too much augm...
they add augmentations to their brain it probably helps to get rid of this strain and they know what they are doing and a lot of them accept it, the point that a lot of them are basically motionless machines
they are quite literally willing to let go of their humanity to become the blessed machine
basically since they accepted it and cope well with it enough it doesn't happen with them
rich patrol
So cyberpsychosis is a conflict between the humanity and machine within the body. But a magos already got rid of their humanity
queen laurel
So cyberpsychosis is a conflict between the humanity and machine within the body...
some admechs hold some of their humanity but they willingly accepted the process of becoming machines so they don't struggle with using their identity as people
normal light
Like yeah, if they say: Flesh is weak
queen laurel
they only cling to some aspects of their humanity but a good chunk of it is practically gone
normal light
there is not much sense to hold for their humanity
queen laurel
even the ones that are considered pretty human by people are quite robotic
imitating emotions and gestures to comfort other people for interactions
rich patrol
Honestly I'd argue flesh is better cause it takes me 50 years of smoking to get lung cancer but 5 years of running and my pc breaks dowb
Maybe because our tech is still caveman level

Because people in Cyberpunk are dorks

Bro really said skill issue
dusk patrol
The game it becomes clear the issue was more other factors.
With the TV show, none of those dudes were ever stable really.
queen laurel
Bro really said skill issue
Techpriest are psycho conditioned into accepting their gifts they are basically trained into accepting that machine is good for the body so no matter how many things they attach to themselves they are basically just OK with it and again their brain is augmented
dusk patrol
Their lives started falling apart before then.
rich patrol
I mean 40k environment and society is X10 times worse than night city
queen laurel
I mean 40k environment and society is X10 times worse than night city
you're talking about the mechanicus which are basically trained to the point that they are told you can just abandon emotions
saying that becoming a calculating cold machine is a good thing
so they don't really have a humanity to get attached too, unlike a person in cyberpunk
rich patrol
Sounds like the sense of humanity is just a barrier to getting better augments
dusk patrol
We see plenty of augmented dudes who still have personalities too tbh
Its more a choice to shut that off.
Cawl is very very personable still.
As are Necrons
rich patrol
Well necron tech is not really on the same level
dusk patrol
Despite memes Iron Hands have a lot of personality too often.
Forges of Mars shows us a bunch of different Magos who all vary a lot.
queen laurel
We see plenty of augmented dudes who still have personalities too tbh
yeah some tech priest have either controlled their emotion or some kind of emotional regulator
dusk patrol
Like I said cyberpsychosis in Cyberpunk seems to be more a term just used for people who go nuts that have augs since they can do so much damage, its often more tied to other things.
All of the cyberpsychos you run into during the game had other reasons often unrelated to their augs they went "nuts"
Their augs just made them dangerous when they did.
The one special forces guy with the Sandevistan is a good example
queen laurel

Yeah basically they're just psychopaths that went insane but the cybernetics don't help
dusk patrol
Gang killed his daughter so he went on a huge killer spree
queen laurel
But I think the cybernetics basically add extra strain to the person
rocky gale
Pretty sure with cyberpsychosis getting implants and replacements itself wasn’t the issue it was originally a metaphor for the capitalist exploitation and how to better yourself you are forced to sell part of your body/soul to corporations.
Because early Cyberpunk was very anti capitalist but overtime it was toned down and made more marketable.
dusk patrol
Not really sure what cyberpunk you're playing if you think its toned down.
storm jungle
Pretty sure with cyberpsychosis getting implants and replacements itself wasn’t...
This is the main reason yeah.
in-universe its pretty much mostly covered up so people keep buying chrome
its pretty fucked up and realistic on that front lol
Techpriests generally dont have body-dysmorphia or any psychotic tendencies from bionics because they treat it as a religion compared to cyberpunk where cybernetics are seen as appliances or ways to further yourself from other people and be better.

yeah this is Basically what I said, they are literally psycho conditioned into worshipping machines that becoming a machine is basically a walk in the park for them

Generally we see people in Cyberpunk have other issues besides the augmetics when they go nuts, the augmetics often don't help but the point in a lot of the media is cyberpsychosis is just a slapped on term and excuse for anytime shit goes wrong.
queen laurel
They don't get attached to the human fleshy bits because they view it as weak
storm jungle

Also this yeah
"Its not our products thats wrong its the people."
dusk patrol
The show also shows this, the dudes who go nuts had some other issues going on while they were.

normal light
"Its not our products thats wrong its the people."
Indeed
rocky gale
Not really sure what cyberpunk you're playing if you think its toned down.
You can say that but it has literally been toned down, to the point multiple articles have been written about it and how it’s messaging has been reduced to an aesthetic rather than an actual political critique
storm jungle
Yeah David's reason for going cyberpsycho was generally due to all the trauma he accumulated over his child/teenhood.
The worst part of the story is suppose to be that he could have stopped at ANY moment.
But he didn't.
dusk patrol
You can say that but it has literally been toned down, to the point multiple art...
People can write articles about anything.
Some shows and media push the message harder but I haven't seen an issue with the game or media.
The game is very true to the orginal product Pondsmith wrote.
storm jungle
Pondsmith also literally oversaw the entire thing
orchid lark
Its an addiction
storm jungle
he even cameos as a conspiracy radio host in the game
dusk patrol
You can do cyberpunk as an aesthetic if you want and some people just want that and its fine.
You can also do it with more of a message.
Its not complicated.
dusk patrol
he even cameos as a conspiracy radio host in the game
And he's the dude that betrays you
orchid lark
Cyberpunk is technology dependence in the hands of capitalism
Take the capitalism out

Smasher is kitted out crazy, Max Tac is just as crazy
dusk patrol
But yeah once you get stuff like Sandevistans and the goofy stuff Smasher can do, V is much farther beyond what we see in game mostly.
Smasher has the best stuff that one of the highest quality Supercorps in the game can give him.
queen laurel
Smasher is kitted out crazy, Max Tac is just as crazy
the guy is loaded with enough weaponry to level a city block and then some
orchid lark
That’s one thing I kinda wish, Cyberpunk 2077 kinda talks about is
What actual soldiers use for chrome
We see it as glimpses but what usual solos and stuff use is relatively a step or two down
Exceptions being Smasher and maybe Blackhand
Who the fuck knows what Morgan Blackhand could do
Or even a Takemura at full war could do either
dusk patrol
Morgan has minimal stuff mostly, but he definitely has a Sandevistan
His thing was more built around extreme preparation
And just skill.
Smasher is more uh
Blunt

Regardless, two types of solos you dont want to be at the wrong end of

Jensen’s story was pretty cool, and the games were actually nice to play
Not to mention just the whole aesthetics of it
dusk patrol
Yeah I loved it, it wasn't perfect but it was a very fun take on the genre and Deus Ex
orchid lark
No one is cooler than Jensen either, a walking armory of a cyborg
dusk patrol
Especially if you know the later deus ex games.
Well "later"
Since the Jensen stuff were prequels technically
dusk patrol
I did like it, as much as later Dues Ex with nanites and shit was cool it is more aesthetically interesting to having all these crazy augmetics and stuff.
orchid lark
The augmentation in the Jensen series were great yeah.
Medically accurate (in the case superficial muscles)
I loved how the arm augments are connected to the backs and chest
Kinda like Jetstream Sam, his arm augments need to be anchored to his pecs and some of his shoulder muscles
storm jungle
Do not ever doubt how much tactical detailing goes into Metal Gear games.
Even back in the PS1 era Yoji Shinkawa was cooking mad shit with all these military details/designs.
dusk patrol
Now if only we could get him to stop writing the shit
orchid lark
It was medical accuracy
Its an artistic accuracy kinda thing.
Its not impossible that the artist was an oldhead artist who studied human musculatures via the grim way
Well, a lot of sculptors and some artist need to learn ecroche
Some learned it via going to hospitals and looking at cadavers
dusk patrol
I’m just joking I get that you can have some levels of accuracy or have it rooted in some form of legitimacy without being a complete slave to it

It's kind of a cool thing they do sometimes where they'll pair someone from the lore team with someone from the painting team and have them work together to create new subfactions. Like Peachy and Ward worked together to make the Nihilakh Dynasty for the Necrons.
and a funny thing about that is apparently Peachy would keep getting comments on painting tutorials saying he was pronouncing Nihilakh wrong and he was just screaming to himself "I made them, I know how it's pronounced!"

based off a customc hapter i made forever ago
custom chapter*
well first sum up
draft
Cytax Tyrants:
An ultramarine successor who believe that the mortal kind are not fit to rule and should only serve the Space Marines. Whilst being Codex Compliant their rites to progress within the chapter they must show not only be skilled in combat but as well hold political power within and without the chapter. The chapter presents it self as bastions of culture and the peak of what the imperium has to offer; in reality they are cruel and possibly even more oppressive than simply directly serving the imperium. The Tryants will answer nearly any call to aid and host a campaign of bloodshed and oppressions on not only the enemy expecting that upon completion the ones to call for aid will surrender anything demanded to the Cytax Tyrants. If denied they will turn the same campaign around upon those they were called to save until the Tyrants obtain everything they demand and more. The only exceptions being those who are immediately under the protection of the imperium such as the inquisition or the Mechanicus as well as Space Marine chapters that's views align with the Tyrant's own. In these situations the chapter will attempt to use diplomacy to obtain as much as possible for their efforts.
In a nutshell military dictatorship ultramarines.
thinking cytax will probably be the system they come from and they exclusivly draw from the elite class

Oh, no. I dont know how to feel about this. I am so exited for this game and this is not the best of starts.

arent i putting myself at a disadvantage by using a bigger model anyways

With the way you determine range in 10th if the model isn't on a base you measure from the closest point of the vehicle, so if you're barrel is twice the length then you're giving yourself extra attack range that the model wouldn't normally have, so people would probably complain if it was obvious.
But yea it's also a trade off of you'd also be exposing yourself more because they can target the longer barrel

Cytax Tyrants:
An ultramarine successor who believe that the mortal kind are not fit to rule and should only serve the Space Marines. Whilst being Codex Compliant their rites to progress within the chapter they must show not only be skilled in combat but as well hold political power within and without the chapter. The chapter presents it self as bastions of culture and the peak of what the imperium has to offer; in reality they are cruel and possibly even more oppressive than simply directly serving the imperium.

In these situations the chapter will attempt to use diplomacy to obtain as much as possible for their efforts.
The chapter primarly draws from thier home system of Cytax, specifically they take every male child under the age of 14 except one from every noble family before being placed into intese training. These children are forced into a series of gladiator battles upon reaching the age of 14 in teams against various prisoners, vicious animals, and even disgraced space marines of the chatper. The surviving teams are then forced to turn on each on other in a battle to the death ensuring only the most merciless are accepted. The accepted children are allowed to begin the true rites of passage into the chapter

capcom has a lot of my respect for bringing resident evil back to its roots
yup that's 8
resident evil 6 went batshit insane
i dont think the franchise would have survived if they kept that up
@celest dome you should try 7
there's an add on campaign where you punch zombies to death with combos and shit
it's so fun

I'm not sure, I saw quite a lot of story i think

From 7, my ex played it while I watched it, but I played 8 on my own
