and like, filled with nazis
"this game isnt satire"
dev in the chat: it is tho
"nuh uh shut up liberal"

Didn't they later get reprimanded or something ?
yeah i think so
"I CANT BELIEVE THE DEVS DONT KNOW THEIR OWN PRODUCT!! I KNOW IT BETTER THAN THOSE SHEEPLE!!!"
Me when the challenges make a sci-fi setting and when the humans are the dominant species make sure that the fans don't like the must not make themselves Nazi challenge
Or was it for something else ?
One got fired
He was a discord mod they promoted to CM though so
Not sure what they expected

Is that the guy that told the player base to down vote the game
it is unfortunate. I always just tell em "shut up and let me enjoy my game". because that's what it is, a GAME
Or basically bomb rate it
He was literally encouraging people to leave bad reviews if they were so mad which shockingly
Arrowhead and Sony didn’t care for
Yeah
I can’t recall
Pilestedt?
It's probably in one of those helldivers drama videos
It was a shit situation but it was also one he probably should have just not talked
That’s the CEO
He’s mostly pretty agreeable
Not always but
you basically should just give non-answers always
He’s less stupid
because gamers are stupid
no
“We’re seeing what we can do” x 100
yes
your stupid
One thing i've picked up from being mods is that one of your jobs is to mostly contain morons not feed them
“Looking into it”
^
“I’ve passed it on to the team”
NEVER say a proper statement, your job is being a human shield
I mean compared to most game development CEOs, he's got better marks
Unlike Pete Parsons
I appreciate his honesty at least
Even if I think balancing wise he and his team are uh….
They make interesting choices

Oh yeah the balance is all over the dang place
Didn't he step down recently
They’re bad at the game
I don't play the game but
They absolutely are bad at the game
The screaming community is enough for me to understand
You can just call them morons dude
There is 0 chance they actually play the game at high difficulties lol
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I used to think it was malice
How bad is the max difficulty
Wouldn't really call ya'll strict
But now I’m convinced they’re jsut kinda dumb
I heard it's basically unplayable
And way in over their heads
Unless you're a bigot or a toxic gamer we dont super care
They added an enemy that couldn’t get one shot by missiles and all chargers pretty much got replaced by them
Spam
I just never notice it. I've always used the starting rifle for most of my gameplay
Think that will be good?
But it do got me…thinking.
They nerfed the only way to deal with them
You mean like they spam 5 bio titans
Before they fixed the spawn rate
More
So it’s kind of just miserable rn
Well that's funny
Oh ik, and I respect that
And fucked
I mean I thought Pariah Nexus was pretty good. Considering this will be a continuation, I've got my hopes
HD2 difficulty of spamming out enemies that can only be dealt with using armor piercing weapons and only a couple weapons are good sounds so infuriating
Unfortunately I dont want to pay for yet another subscription service
Is it basically the area where if you don't bring the super specific build you were going to cry
to quote myself and Eternal, as long as a child gets shot i will give it 9/10 stars
and I cant pirate it easily so eh
Even with a specific build it sucks
Oof
That's why I go "Yar Har, it's Pirate time" if i want access
A child got ripped apart and eaten by its own mother 10 out of 10
Nothing is more funnier then point blank blasting a chargers head off with a quesar cannon
Unlike tiefling children who are mildly fireproof
Orb railcannon for me
Yes they are
Tiefling children are just longer lasting kindling
Nah save that for the titan
Taste funny though
Yeah but the only places I can find to obtain it are sites that open 800 porn sites in new tabs in my browser constantly, and dont let me use adblocker
They don’t scream as loudly when they die to fire effects either lol
when did dnd come into this?
They must have actually set the goblin child’s voice actor on fire
You can kill children in it you can
Child murder in baldurs gate 3
Zased
The child getting shot in pariah nexus
Keep up with the lads
Same difference smh
So fvucking,,, zased
I'm not a nerd
Love how people were like "HOW CAN GUARDSMEN SHOOT A CHILD"
Do these people realise these men and women raze/massacre populaces like daily lol
Mothafucka you are in a warhammer server by virtue of you being in one you are a nerd
The optimal way to handle a fight in the camp is to kill the goblin kids anyways lol
I've watched some Warhammer+ videos through youtube channels, who have a VERY short lifespan, but dedicate it to making the videos watchable. that's how I was able to watch Angels of Death in one night, before the following day that specific channel got taken down
So I don't play baldurs gate
So deal with it
Since they can aggro the rest of the camp
So in a short summary of Humanity's history, (From the Space Age to the Current Age). Humanity seems to have a natural tendency to be on the brink of Extinction. Do you believe it still has a chance they can survive further on?
I will absolutely incinerate the child
Esad
It will survive
In some form or another
Hmmm, mmmh 
Why do you believe that?
I want to throw a group of children from dnd to Ghur just to watch the continent eat them alive
Uh, we wont have another age or stife, because how can we have more models with that?
How much would you pay to see that
Real
Anything for freedom of information
I did kinda feel bad about the goblin kids….
…..until I realized how funny it is to punt them into the gorge…
They were racist to me
wtaf
Sentenced to death
That's a f****** lie
You wanted to kill them
Whats a flie
But that’s also the really racist kid lol
No real talk I actually avoided it first play through
And I got the good ending
I just snuck around
I didn’t kill the goblin kids in the court yard
Yeah when i role play i'm mostly do the goody two shoes anyway
Halsin kind of just
I was a pussy but I felt bad
Just being a bastard doesn't appeal to me
I don’t really blame like
Maybe because i do like killing people that are bad
Halsin for mauling those kids to death
Murder by kindness is a good way to not get killed by the authorities
And therefore i can kill more bad people
I wish I could kill Halsin and get the good ending still
For being good
Worthless bear fucker
We are basically like cockroaches, we will always find some way to live especially spread out in the galaxy. Extinction events right now are simply scary because we are all gathered in one place.
The more good i am the more bad people i can kill
You can tbf, the shadow curse just remains fucked
And statistically since there are more bad people than good people
It's a never ending cycle of slaughter
Yeah but that’s what I mean
Yeah but that's the bad part
speed freeks in a nutshell
You kinda want to save that part of the map
I'm sorry...BigKok Gripnuts?
Also I did feel a bit bad about convincing the Drider to leave the lantern behind and walk into the shadows
ngl
But he was also a dumbass so
Ork names fr sound like that
He did do proper welding ppe
The be honest that's mercy
the drider I felt bad for
The guy looks more deranged than
he's a drider
A f****** goblin child
that kind of happens
Lolth really does not like Driders
You don’t hear a lot of drider stories which end with “and then the drider had a happy life”
Oh yeah who is that god who is supposed for the good underground black people elf
He was a certified nutter though
I forgot what the race is called
Uh Drow
They have a god that encourages being a good guy right
welp
seldarine is just generic Elven pantheon
aka not Lolth
today is a rest day
Anyone who worships Sharr is a huge dumbass I don’t get how she even has that big temple
Lolth is a chaotic evil psycho demon
I think they just kidnap kids ngl
who dat
To be fair in dnd
Darkness and loss are a constant
We all lose something you
Love
God of betrayal basically
Your money
Like legit she just
or they just fucking lobotomize you
Your family
Always betrays you
Shar is
Good amount of stuff
Literally nothing redeeming
the God
She basically capitalizes people's feelings of losing something right
To get them into that stupid thing
feeds off of grief and loss yes
along with wanting to destroy the universe
Shar is like
man i really should play BG3
the angsty teenager who writes edgy poetry and fantasizes about killing people and actually does kill people
while their sister is like
a sucessful person in life
You played it right you mean play it again?
Mood
LOL
You didn't touch the game but you wanted to have sex with not one but literally two of the characters
BG3 is fucking dense lol
Shar is like Morathi, you don't understand why she's part of the 'not utterly evil god'
You know what
I respect it
Caught in 4k
she's way too nice
Just don’t talk to or be nice to Gale
even after she goes full blown Dark Justiciar
Don't listen to him he needs it
shes going to get lobotomized by the mirror again
no idea why people like him
literally fucking Generic McGee
Wyll
Gale feels like a creep id turn down in a cafe
I find him endearing
He did rizz a god of magic somehow
Wyll
People are nerds and Gale is a nerd too
Wyll
Wyll is generic
Real
where theres a Wyll, theres a woodchipper
Wyll suffers from curse of last minute rewrites
there's like actually some vaguely intresting stuff about him
Pre rewrite Wyll was worse
but its never fucking developed
Yeah but like calling him the most generic
i do like Minthara too, totally not because Anna Gregori has voiced like half the 40k books i listen to lol
my intestine has reached ego death
Minthara is fun
Gale is a good chunk at least above wyll
she's fun even if you're not evil
shes such a meme-lord
just more complicated to get
"We can use the kids for slave labor"
She's objectively a terrible person lol
BASED
if you romance her
What do you mean complicated just knock her out
you literally end up as a warlord in the Underdark
and enslave a bunch of people
lol
And then save her
oh did they actually make it simpler
Well trying to keep her rather drow etcentrics
it used to be you had to temp aggro her lol
In check is fun
I just always romance Karlach because I’m a heterosexual man ngl
bruh
bro legit admitted his kink infront of the class
Kinda hard to argue with that
Karlach is hot both literally and figuratively
That’s right, I have a hot naked woman fetish
I just like Karlach because she is a woman that knows what she wants
I’ll admit to it
Yes i said the joke crucify me
hope your balls get melted off during sex with her fucko
Women are confusing whatever
guh
augh
That’s why we bring a lot of heat resist pots
I like Karlach cause I like women that could kill me, simple as
Lae'zel romance is funny in that your character looks like you literally get beaten half to death
AYEEEEE
She’s fun, she’s actually useful, she knows what she wants, she’s fucking hot literally and physically
since she just obliterates you in one turn of melee
Doesn't she literally just go for her confessio
I like you and i would not mind having tearing you apart doing sex
Shadow heart is way too much baggage ugh
"way too much baggage"
you literally wake up in the morning sore and bruised if you romance her
me when dealing with people IRL
and then it gets worse after her fight with you
(I romanced her first play though and it’s very sweet)
where she literally beats you half to death to show her love for you
Lae'zels romance is great
If Alfira was not in a couple I'd love to have her as a romaneable character
Shadow heart is for i can fix her people
Lae'zel is like
michael jackson coke-nose
Because you can truly fix her you
the least racist Gith
turning into a baki character
She’s the writers pet holy shit
Shadowheart and Lae'zel have the most added to their characters with the romance
I'd would have said Astarion
I say she's next to lae zel
You gave them reasons to believe that the beliefs that they are been given are you know not the best
beyond the like usual stuff
Astarions is good but it also is basically the same if you don’t romance him
oh god he's full of cheap groundmeat from the grocery store
Lae'zel and Shadowheart both have some large changes occur lol
Isn't like, basically impossible to stop him from ascending unless you roll
Shadow hearts whole choice with the one angel lady is super different if you romance her
Good
You can stop him from ascending but he tells you to fuck off and he leaves
Iirc you don’t even have to convince her
you don't need to convice Shart to shank Aylin
I think the best perception of Astarion is the "fanart" Dungeon Meshi's artist drew where she just fucking traced the cover art of the game because she didnt give a shit about him as a character lol
in general if you have enough approval
Yeah but for him to stay and convincing him you need to do the roll
- she has a hidden background system
for it lol
Shadowheart arguably has the most complicated fucking stuff lol
No way 
Gotta check that out
Don't the companions basically make their right choice if you stay with them and make them do the right thing
Shadowheart really is “baggage” the character
And she doesn’t even know it
Wyll gets some cute stuff if you romance him
Only the exception being astarion
Gale is fucking weird
If i wasn't such a big fat a** i might do that dance of this
I always bang his sponsor lady
LOL
Just to stunt on him
Bottom right lol
you can tell she just
didnt wanna add him in
LOL
The only reason i f****** save him is because he's god form is such a f****** dick
Fucking his boss cause I can
Half of the Gale romance is him just talking about his ex
yeah
just like real life
LOL
Yeah we can stay as friends but if you become a god i will kill you myself
dab
The only reason i save him is because if he becomes a god he becomes this ego maniac
That you just want to punch
Doesn't he basically favor you
Okay i'm shagging a god
Now what
I mean tbf
That's why i allways save the companions and do the right thing
Watching them suffer and becoming even more worse it's not a good idea
when you come back from another mission but didn't have any filters in your mask.
thats a fucked up veteran
If you’re fucking a god I feel like becoming thier chosen is basically like being their bf
Or whatever
yeah
I think its funny once and then it just feels kind of hollow the other times you do it
because like
So those are the new cigarette warning pictures 
Dill face reveal
you lose out on so much content lol
Basically the god equivalent of “wanna move in?”
objectively speaking
The only good thing about Shadowheart becoming a full blown Sharran is that she's "one of the good ones" 💀
Pfft, what! I am a man like anyone else!
Yeah but the thing is i'm not good at being a scumbag what can i say
this how you'll look if you smoke kids
What do you mean 'people'
which means she's going to get fucking backstabbed
At bare minimum I'm chaotic neutral
Well... I wouldn't exactly call em "people"

fair
something-something oppenheimer style
Minthara is like objectively Lawful Evil
I am a people dammit!
Oh yeah wolf how do you think people will make custom companions with the mod tools
And it's just a straight up sex slave
Could be worse, could be steam/forum peoples 💀
I don't want to think about this
💀
Haven't we agreed you were a bot or was that someone else
Well i'm making you think
too bad
So think
To the nick kyme room
I dont recall being called a bot, i would remember that
I don't get why people think The Emperor is like nice
YAY new roommate
he's like a piece of shit objectively lol
he gave me a bounty once
lol
How do i deal with this people that worship me as a religion should i a tell them that is not really a good idea and that they should just stop but i appreciate the appreciation or i blew up the planet
Option b it is blow up the planet
oh
different game
smh
I'm talking about baldurs gate 💀
but also the emperor is a piece of shit in 40k
Oh that guy that killed his friend
Unlike sigmar
ok
he literally gave stelmane a stroke and he threatens to give you one as well if you don't be buddy buddy with him lmao
The important thing to take away from this is, fuck the Voodoo Boys
lol
They’re not even the Voodoo Boys
I really wish i can find the way to get a mindflayer for the final battle without him and without needing to sacrifice myself or orpheus
real
But next play through i'm going to have the sacrifice Orpheus
I am tired of sacrificing myself for the greater good
Orpheus dying is fine realistically 
I can convince him to live like on some f*** off nowhere right
ngl killing him is probably the best option regardless
realistically the Githyanki need to start fresh
I love how when you dont trust them Johnny shit-talks you
their whole civlization is fucked
I don't get why Johnny trusts them
💀
like
because hes a dumbass
well obviously
are they trustworthy
no
they literally kill you
they annoyed me i killed them all
they literally fry your brain
also use you as a trojan horse
if you side with them
Johnny thinking that one chick he banged a few times still was obsessed with him decades later as an AI is hilarious
Well don't really care about him because there's only one character i like the main man Yurs truly
This guy is fun
Literally the most friendly Orthon ever
Are they usually very violent
A threat
like its why i do not understand why anyone thinks parting with johnny is a "sad" ordeal, hes a fucking pathetic loser who had everything coming to him.
i remember playing his flashbacks and thinking any "nice" action i do feels out of character
lol
They are a genetically engineered Devil Ubermensch designed for exterminating demons
so yes
Johnny Bumbled fucked his way into being friends and around actually super important people
The perfect coworkers then
Yurgir is pretty nice
And also he's fun to use in the final battle
Then thought he was the reason Arasaka cared about it all
Infinite invisibility is funny
Yurgir if anything is on the weaker side for an Orthon
He was also basically just a test dummy for the Soulkiller
Pretty much, i got zero sympathy for him overall lol
at least the nuclear bomb stunt was p badass
He didn’t even do that iirc
he didn't yeah
he wa there
He was just the muscle
his primary goal that night was to sabotage soul killer
yeah but that's still an active part of it
with the rest of his group
except he wasn't even the most important person in that group
He’s basically the side character to a bunch of actually badass people and he thinks he was the main character the whole time
yeah
Shaitan and Spider murphy were more important that night
that's literally the rockstar syndrome
Yeah
Spider because she was the only netrunner
and Shaitan because he was insurance incase smasher showed up
He wasn’t even an optional companion
and what do you know smasher showed up LOL
He was a side character who dies off screen
yeah
if you play that module hes dead as a warmup for Smasher showing up
you don't interact with him at all
imagine dying to smasher
Yeah
i gave him an aneurysm and he canned it instantly
and then Shaitan starts fighting smasher and you're supposed to run and actually do your job
lol
my fav weapon in cyberpunk was in the dlc and it's a shame you get it only at the very end
it's the AI boosted smg that literally fry ppl alive
Is there actually a person more geared up and more horrifying than smasher in lore?
oh the blackwall stuff
no, Shaitan was just considered as close as someone could get to actually fighting smasher off
Or is he basically the cream of the crop
and they just scream in pain as all of their implants burn
and he still got his fucking ass beaten lol
the logic was Shaitan is fullborg, very competent and hard to kill
therfore he should fight smasher if smasher shows up
He's basically the pinnacle of cybernetic machinery fusion between humans huh
skill issue
he lives though lol
when will they understand that netrunner is the best build smh
Basically if i want to become someone like smasher i need to develop his mentality
Which is not a good idea
if you approach the module from the other direction
you get to also meet Shaitan after he gets chucked out the window
since he's busy killing Arasaka security in the main lobby

you need to be like an incredibly psychopathic person already to end up like Smasher
his humanity stat is literally listed as "-" because it doesn't fucking exist
he isn't human
Can you be a good person and have as much cybernetics he does
Like having a very healthy mental states so you can handle the machinery
they all go crazy eventually
he just hates Arasaka
a lot
so he's ended up more sane then smasher who just hates humanity
So if i play the board game and i have this character that has a sandavistan with gorilla arms and berserker drug injectors his humanity stat would be like at one
no
thats like fine
if its just those 3 things
but what about eye replacments, skeletal enhancments
ect.
All of it then
You have to be really chromed up to go cyberpsycho
mf is built like a hd2 devastator
yeah if you go chrome junky your humanity stats gona be low
but you haven't gone full borg yet
What's the use of humanity stat in the game
that isn't smashers head btw
The psycho in the start of the edgerunners
talking with people, not being a brutal psychopath,
So if you have incredibly low humanity you basically have zero charisma
Damn
people actively don't want to interact with you
Just like me for real for real
You're twitchy and people treat you like a rabid dog off the chain
Surely they would want to talk with someone that has gorilla arms and sandavistan and berserker drug injectors running in their veins 24/7
but smasher is arguably still alive in 2077 even after you "kill" him
smasher don't care he maxxed out so much he can pulp anyone standing in front of him
Maybe for VtM fans it's like being Nos
since his torso is intact lol
Smasher wasn't sane in the first place
so it really doesn't matter
Smasher was a psychopath before he sold himself to Arasaka
its also fine in a Cyberpunk Red or 2020 party if you have someone go full borg
Cyberpunk characters complain about going crazy after implanting too much, where tech priests just don’t worry cause they were differing flavors and levels of crazy to begin with
i mean he has to die if you fry his brain
It's the tech priest mentality
his brain isn't in his head
that isn't his fucking head
where is it then
And I love it
They think that joining with machinery is based
He was on death's door and said I would rather die than go without inflicting civilian casualties
So they don't have problems with it
Granted they’re surprisingly stable most of the time, if inept
if his head is in his chest it doesn't matter
Hidden deep in the chest area under a bunch of armor and it can "eject" as well
another netrunner build w
ngl
Netrunners in tabletop I don't think are nearly as overpowered
They stay surprisingly stable
they're more overpowered
Wait wolf isn't lucy a net runner
And when he tried to do that s*** with smash
you can literally kill yourself by accident
He just reflected it
yes
But yah you want a netrunner to actually have a chance to beat Smasher
Borgs ICE can only go so far
reminds me of another type of '"wizards" mmmh
I did a sword tech pistol build with a sandevistan
I mean its more so if you try frying someone with too much ice
you'll just overheat and fucking die
That’s why he hit Ctrl Delete
because your squishy body can't handle it
Is the strongest type of melee weapon in cyberpunk vibro weapons
You know like vibroblades
I want full borg conversions in the next cyberpunk video game
I'm so dissapointed by the lack of full borgs
in 2077
Yeah
there's more in FUCKING RED
and RED is like
the least militarized period in Cyberpunk lore
Arasaka security should have plenty of full borgs
Can you tell me the rule books for the table top game
in the degenerate body desecration aspect
It seems like a fun read
Aren't there like cyber furries as well? That'd be neat
there's anything you can think about
yes
Maelstrom looks like it would have like more people that look literally like Junkyard dogs
yeah, you can do body conversions, some can have ears tails, pointy ears, and shape their teeth to be sharper
it's a completely degenerated late stage capitalism dystopia
and cdporjeckt red didn't do it justice imo
such a shame we don't get to see the Trauma Team fullborg conversion
oh yeah fun fact
Trauma team has fullborgs

at least in Red
That sounds terrifying
I like the military aspect of Cyberpunk, like, it can still be attainable
Least chromed furry https://youtu.be/ceDnQZRMToA?si=dTBDh-lNtj6tlcJE
i hope they take their foot off the brake for their next game
its still a fucking total cyborg
go full throttle
thats near bulletproof
The suspiciously wealthy furry and his 3 trillion dollar fursuit
it looks like a basic suit
RIP HiFI 2
but there's nothing really human under it anymore
They really undersold the…body modifications you can make for your character.
yeah it's laughable
which isn't too bad
Aight bet
then again there's lower humanity loss conversions
I imagine lacking basic senses like Touch or smell would be insanity inducing enough
but like they aren't meant for combat
there's literally little to no body trashing in a cyberpunk game
things should get fucked up
instead you can just get heart in ur eyes or something
No joke, I was making my character and went “wait…thats as huge as you’re gonna go?”
but its mostly for people who are paranoid about dying
and want to still look hot
so like it worthless for any actual combat situation for how much it costs
Sounds like a post modern version of those people who do too much botox
yeah pretty much
vibe
the militech suits all are like
60+ humanity loss lol
mostly since militech == murder
A fancy computer in your head that nullifies your empathy and tells you to murder in your sleep
there's a militech full borg conversion with 4 arms
or I guess 2
but you can get extra arms for more humanity cost
I just wish I could look more like A Solo who was ex-military, clothing options were rubbish
cute
its focused on stealth
That hazardous environment robot in Phantom Liberty was them diping their toe in the water
Probably a everything but the brain like Smasher
for buyable in game
baseline is Militech Eclipse
since its a straight 67 hit without any of the additional addons
I need more friends to do TTRPG stuff with
Spyder is more potentially
if you go for all 4 arms
- additional stuff
Militech Dragoon is the most humanity cost baseline at around 80 I think? Excluding additional integrated stuff
but your GM probably won't let you buy it lol
since its military grade hardware + it trivalizes any combat
its like bringing a fucking tank to a gang war
Could have one organised here, but I don't know how to run a cyperpunk one
If a tech priest were to be rated in that system how much humanity loss world you say for the average enginseer
But I want it
enginseer is prolly like 30 to 40
half their body at least is machine
but yeah the lack of full borgs in 2077 is dissapointing
140 humanity loss
its like literally one of my least favorite parts about the games depiction of Cyberpunk
motherfucker is negative on the chart
Not human
biological enhancments cost humanity as well
Biotech is illegal though

but who cares
you're a criminal anyways
Only in Night City no N?
Humanity? What’s that?
Sexy metal man
also smasher is lowkey more imposing in Red then he is in 2077
since he looks like just a guy in armor
Same, I’ve been trying to do a wrath and glory ttrpg with my friends, but their running a dnd campaign rn
its more fun when you see just some normal looking dude
tear through a fucking metal door
Left? Or loss?
Loss
I think its a shame there's a general lack of Arasaka full borg conversions in Red
but at least it makes sense
they literally just got nuked a few years ago
What about say- a dominus compared to miltech enhancements
Fucking 0 humanity left lol
Not counting full conversion since there are few tech priests with just brain left
What's Red
For the average dominus?
Cyberpunk red is the ttrpg system that’s a successor to 2020
Oh
It happens from the years 2023 to 2040
Prolly yeah, with all the extra bits, additional eyes
Ect.
Wasn't there something to go in negative humanity ?
Yes
It’s in red
It just makes you even worse at being a party face/mentally stable
In 2020 you just died
Who knew military grade combat steroids being pumped into your blood with emotion inhibitors make one a little dangerous
How do we keep bringing up cyberpunk in here btw, not that I'm complaining, just something interesting I noticed
because its cool
and we go on a tangent constantly whenever anything related to it is posted
We go on many tangent tbf
I love tangents
least favourite geometry feature
Yah 2077 didn't go really hard on the dehumanizing factor of Cyberpunk
one of my favorite Cyberpunk Red characters was a fullborg Netrunner who swore he was "normal"
(he was not)
he also died
but thats besides the point
No happy endings in Night City
was pretty fun to RP as someone whos clearly not right in the head due to the full body conversion
but it also got kind of tiring after a while
Depends on the massage parlor you visit
but good for me he died before it got to the point where I didn't want to play him anymore

Playing an Iron Hand in Deathwatch got pretty annoying so I just made him eccentric eventually
Btw, are explorators usually dominus?
He got blown in half by a some massive fucking laser weapon but he didn't die until like
Why’s that?
No
There’s no rule
Mostly just, being the cold, mostly silent mechanical Techmarine sounds cool
But it turns out narratively you do a lot of the same stuff
Over and over
its funny in that if you go full borg as a netrunner you're arguably way more durable then a non fullborg Solo
And don’t have a lot of interesting responses
Yeah, but I would assume they are since they’d need to conquer newly found territory
since you can face check a missile but they can't
Turn the ICBM into a pacifist, just Netrunner things
Explorators are must Tech priests who are part of an Explorator fleet
Their rank can vary wildly
Also sometimes they’re just attached to a rogue trader or whatever
It’s basically just being a part of a Forgeworld ecosystem but it’s a fleet
playing a full borg netrunner is fun because you can physically intimidate people + threaten to like do horrific things to their implants
So I got to do interrogations


because I was a giant scary cyborg with like 11 humanity left over
they need to be at least decently ranked
but beyond that there's no big rule
Explorator Fleet have many ranked people in it
Oh also fun fact Taiwan conquered China in cyberpunk

I’m not sure why they wrote that but it’s funny
Prophecious lore
It’s why Kang Tao is labeled as a Chinese corporation in RED and 2077
I’m just trying to write a biologis that’s a part of a explorator fleet and was just trying to figure out how it would look
Or even just a Tech priest that work on an Exploratory fleet
Yeah that also works great
I figure Mike Pondsmith can’t visit China can he
I love how the Orks are confused over the concept of roads.
Specifically why HUMIES don't just like
Drive in whatever terrain they're in
Well for scaling reasons I have to have him be an initiate attached to a biologis magos
I’d assume he can’t after writing that lmao
Me too
The glory of Orkish 4 wheel drive
The Soviet Union is somehow still alive in Cyberpunk
Somehow
Anytime anywhere
It’s capitalist now
Sorry Neo Sovietism

Makes sense
But also God damn even the soviets can't escape corpos

It’s also one of the less awful places to live in terms of like
Me, in my Jeep
So basically it's American healthcare instead of Cyberpunk's healthcare which is
Worse
Somehow
Yes
in Cyberpunk you get shit healthcare even if you can afford it
Trauma Team is borderline supernatural with what they can do
unless you can afford Trauma team coverage™️
I fucking love Trauma Team because they're basically American Healthcare using a Berserk Module
And their response time
no they absolutely are fucking super natural
lol
There's no way they can realistically have those response times
Trauma Team has like a 30 second guarantee for platinum members
Remember when David shot Faraday and Trauma Team was immediately there after like 3 minutes
Of course uh
David made sure any kind of healthcare
They have some limits
Hey they don’t guaranteed you’ll survive
Tbh I think my main criticism with Edgerunners is that
They didn't have an episode where everything goes normally yk
Just that they’ll do their best
I mean I would like an episode where the crew goes through a successful long gig
Not only would it be fun
Trauma Teams story is pretty depressing too, it used to be a lot more moral and about helping people
But it'd also be a reference point of how shit everything is when the downfall happens
Like all heathcare
Lol
But then they realized that they need money
And that the world runs on it
Not even
Especially with Cyberpunk
They jsut didn’t care anymore
As a healthcare professional it’s already an industry run by corporations
They kept seeing the worst of humanity
It's hard to when you constantly find your customers uh
Fucking gored
You just try to change it as much as you can within it
Scav moment
There’s a comic with a trauma team dude who joins from the military to make a difference
And almost everyone is like that
And he becomes jaded and uncaring by the end
Tbh that's also the story of the NCPD
In the 2020's they were a legitimate police force and publically funded
Now they've recently became a corporation themselves
I can’t imagine you can’t lose your humanity if you’re landing trying to save someone from dying and that’s it and people keep trying to murder you
Yeah the NCPD is technically a corporation in 2077
Hence why they act that way in the game and show
Or seeing the individual you're contracted to save basically be fucked mentally and physically
Sometimes literally unfortunately
If you don’t shoot first and tell everyone to fuck off or die then you’re gonna die fast
the fact you have to waste your breath saving some piece of shit as well
can't help
Which is why they act that way during cyberpunk 2077'd intro
Yeah
ngl
Despite you literally saving the girl they tell you to back away
They’re often racing into attempted corporate assignations
They probably thought you were some shithead merc
Who only did it for the money
Which can be a bit lethal
Yeah
they just tase you if you get too close
They just harshly tell you to back away
Which is lenient
on the scale of trauma team thats like
I mean most people have cyberware
very nice]
Also uh
