      Ok so I found out about the Cyberpunk accessibility issue and this is what I mean about waiting to hear from people who aren't professional critics. And if people opened with "this game is absurdly inaccessible, possibly intentionally so," I would have been all ears immediately

      It's certainly the least cyberpunk thing I've heard about it. To me, possibly the definitional cyberpunk idea is "giving people abilities they wish they had" (try to avoid "curing disability" here).

      The part I just don't get on board with is the idea that cyberpunk has to be about "me am play gods" or "take down the corporations!" It usually is the latter (and I'd be shocked if CP2077 wasn't) but I think cyberpunk CAN be about "hey cool robot"

      I think undercutting the "gee whiz cool stuff" factor with some kind of cynicism or deconstruction is the bare minimum necessary to even call it "cyberpunk" and not just normal "science fiction" though Like that's why they made a new word with "punk" in it

          we live in a time when it makes a ton of sense to be making cyberpunk fiction stories about living in the margins of a world devastated by climate catastrophe, wealth inequality, surveillance capitalism but with more cool swords and less miserabilism than real life

          but at least from what i've read, the newest CYBERPUNK! game seems more about repackaged nostalgia presented in hi-def more READY PLAYER ONE than JOHNNY MNEMONIC

          I mean... I've seen legit debate about this in the sf writer community. William Gibson doesn't use the term at all anymore bc he thinks what his books were about has effectively come true, just more depressingly.

          I mean, I can't think of good (or bad) examples of cyberpunk elements that don't have some sort of dystopian themes; Alita was cyberpunk, and had themes of inequality, but they weren't emphasized. I doubt CP2077 doesn't say "hey look corporation bad"
