I think I didn't fully appreciate the first person pov until Clouds which absolutely blew me away.

I have no idea what you're talking about here bc I sneaked behind the back and found the locker room before I even knew what I was looking for and apparently skipped an entire sequence. Whoops

If you would be confused by the concept of Trauma Team idk why you would've even been drawn to the cyberpunk genre in the first place

I don't mean to :thejoke: but medics as death dealers is :thejoke: it's not some complex lore thing it's bog standard dark humor

edit their logo is a paramedic symbol, their first appearance is showing up to an accident yelling "Emergency evac underway," their second appearance is showing up to an accident and leaving bc the victims aren't clients. That's like the platonic ideal of Show Don't Tell, it gives you exactly everything you need to know about them. When they show people picking up guns and being afraid of Trauma Team, that's the joke punchline. Feel free to show this post to your grandma or something, idk.

it helps that the anime on top of being really good on its own also shows a lot of love for the game, with a ton of attention to detail to referencing locations from the game and even game mechanics. It really makes you want to see more of that world.

Oh yeah the show definitely enhances my appreciation for the game. Much moreso than the Witcher weirdly enough.

Didn't Colin Laney die in a cardboard box somewhere? My brain was cooked when I read those books.

I do remember the Blue Ant trilogy ending with Bigend perfecting his system that can predict a few milliseconds into the future and not realizing until years later how just much that tech would upend the world.

Yeah Panam annoyed the hell out of me at first but she grew on me. As long as she keeps lobbing fun toys my way I'll keep driving out to the rear end end of nowhere and pissing off Saul.

The Ashura hidden in there is one of the best sniper rifles in the game, at least according to one guide I read. But yeah I don't see how you could possibly stealth the entire level, gently caress that poo poo.

I did that the first time but this playthrough my V takes absolutely no poo poo from anyone. As soon as they got in V's face the monowire came out and they got sandevistated. De-escalation? What's that?

Yeah I've never had any gangoons wise up and run when they're knee deep in buddy parts staring at my charged up monowire. Maybe in the sequel.

After the Bloody Ritual quest I kept hearing this demonic breathing and panting in my head and I couldn't figure out how to get rid of it. Went to ripper docs, edgerunners, doctors, took a nap, killed some people, went to a church, nothing helped. It finally went away after I loaded a previous save.

I thought this was some kind of creepy meta thing but it's apparently a pretty common bug. Oh well!

Corpo just feels right? It makes for an interesting counter point to Jackie and Johnny's backgrounds and I like the unique dialogue options in most cases.

I just did the Voodoo quest where you go beyond the Blackwall to find Alt and it was pretty disappointing. She just shows up immediately. I thought the old net infested with rogue AIs would be more of a horrific nightmare playground. Almost wish they hadn't played that card. Maybe some things are better left to the imagination.

Even simple stuff like scaling quickhack damage to the hacking minigame results (like the extra rewards you get from Access Points) would've been cool. It's also kinda weird that everyone and everything has a WiFi chip.

the problem from a gameplay standpoint with adding all that netrunning bullshit is that is disincentivizes anyone from actually engaging with it unless you like unnecessarily complex systems because you can shoot everyone in the vicinity in 1/10th the time it takes to just breach one guy

Yeah and even if you nerfed the damage or whatever, that's not going to change the playstyle. Half damage or double RAM cost just means staring through cameras twice as long and that's just fuckin annoying.
