Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."

GTA is loving awesome, so looking like a skinned over version of it (whatever that means beyond 'it's an open world game in a city' doesn't seem like a bad thing to me as long as the story and gameplay are actually good.

The game already has "Edgerunners". I don't think it has to rip off the exact visual style, too. I get that lots of good videogames just take a movie and remember it for us wholesale but it's good to know CDPR has some of their own design flair to show us.

You give up humanity in Cyberpunk for anything that makes you physically or mentally less human. Similar to giving up Essence in Shadowrun for anything that is cybernetic because of the whole Soul VS Machine thing.

I MAY have lost humanity in a Cybergeneration (cyberpunk sequel) because I killed a genetically modified monster as a 13 year old child then ate it's heart like Daenerys Targaryen with that horse heart; THEN went on a minor rampage where I made an FBI agent crash his own car by pulling the pin on a tear gas grenade while in in the back seat.

I too really want them to maintain the Psycho Squad gameplay they promised with this.

They were really cool from the table top; elite teams made to take down crazy over the top cyborgs and other big threats. Secretly their ranks included actual Cyber Psychos they'd captured and partially re-programmed, because by that point they were more machine then man.

Not so quietly hoping that CD Projekt Red includes mouse/keyboard support for the console versions and it's an alternate/bonus minigame if you have them enabled.

it won't happen but I still have like five years left to pretend it might.

In the trailer that one guy's head burst into flames from being hacked.

I really really hope that you can fully customize every part of your character. Replacing limbs, improving stats through upgrading yourself physically through technology. At least one character class has to be able to do some extensive modifications like that, I hope.

Well, he's not wrong.

But going just on visuals one might have gotten the impression that W3 was a generic hack-n-slasher, when it was anything but.

It's gonna be good.

I'd love a bleak, and I mean loving miserable game set in Gibson's Sprawl. Where the game is definitely going to end with your character dead, and the only question is who is going to gut you first: the Yakuza? Megacorp thugs? Your lover?

As someone who doesn't know about the table top, I guess this explains the original trailer from years ago.

Gibson isn't coming after this game specifically. He has a bone to pick with how cyberpunk is portrayed in general. He fawns over Blade Runner in interviews, so he likes 'em real dirty and drab. C2077s bright palette and neon mohawks probably triggered him. Deus Ex would be more his thing.

Regardless, I'm totally up for GTA Blood Dragon.

Well if this is how the game looks during the day.

Then wait until we see some of it at night. It's going to look loving sick.

And call me optimistic but I'm sure there's going to be aspects of the game world that will appeal to the dark and drab tech noir aesthetic that many cyberpunk fans enjoy.

It only makes sense to deviate from whatever material you draw inspiration from. Literal Blade Runner isn't bad but I'm glad cdred is doing whatever take they find fitting.

Yeah, Gibson's more into grey skies, trenchcoats, and mirrored sunglasses.

I prefer my cyberpunk with a side of Tank Girl. 18" day-glo pink mohawks, skimpy clothes for everyone, and the kind of neighborhood where going to the corner store needs a shotgun just to keep the neighbors from stealing your kidneys.
