This is still the best description of cyberpunk I've read going on nearly 13 years:

>The genre simultaneously acknowledges the impossible potential of mankind to achieve so much and yet poison it all with our terrible human predisposition to greed, violence, and apathy.
>Many critics argue that this genre is dead and buried, that its concepts of cyberjockies hacking the corporations has become archaic and unnecessary. In that regard the critics are absolutely right, computer hackers aren't the 21st century's Robin Hood or Mandela, they're just silly kids defacing websites and scammers running identity theft rings.
>To me cyberpunk was never about the heroes and heroines of the various novels, it was about the seductive nature of technology,
>the idea that the stunning beauty of our artifice could so entrance us that we would be willing to give up everything else for it

guys im working on a cyberpunk mmorpg

how crazy is that when what keeps me going partly is the female character that I made in a videogame that I dont play anymore, but I still think about her, and when I think of anything love/family related it's always her image that I see and it gives me lots of comfort

>>35938002
What video game?

and good luck anon

>>35938029
thanks. well i mean im thinking of a cyberpunk mmorpg. like designing it. but i think to give the utmost freedom to the player i think it would be better to make it post-cyberpunk. the super oppressive state would be part of the old lore.

>>35937978
Yeah, I finished it about the same time as you. I got Count Zero and Mona Lisa too, but I'm working on reading Count Zero and it's harder to stay focused on it. Not as engaging as Neuromancer. I really got into that book, I wish I was Wintermute. Being an god-like AI seems comfy.

>>35938109
haha what videogame character did u jerk it to

>>35938114
i finished count zero as well. that one is much shorter and less refined than neuromancer, but i liked bobby. i think it had to do with how much more effort he put into neuromancer, apparently he wrote and rewrote that book several times. that world he created was so captivating.

Can you guys reccommend where to start to really get into cyberpunk? I'm five episodes into the Lain show now, not sure if that counts as part of the genre or not but it's really neat so far and it's gotten me interested in reading/watching some more "real" cyberpunk shit

Explore more than just cyberpunk media. You can't become a cyberpunk. You can live a cyberpunk lifestyle though.
Up to you really, I like to think a lot of shit falls under cyberpunk. What kind of hobbies do you like?
If you wanna go deeper, check out cripplechan's /cyber/ or lainchan. I also posted some good links here: >>35937916

More real than you think. Companies like 23andMe making you pay to steal your DNA. Elites jerking each other off behind the scenes. Politics are an utter joke, entertainment to the masses, reality TV. Sedating everyone with yummy GMOs and cheap fast food filled with xenoestrogens. As Gibson said: ''The future is already here. It's just not evenly distributed.''

>>35938481
more anime i wanna add are bubble gum crisis, akira, and neo tokyo. also cowboy bebop and many other anime are cyb at least at times

you know about cyberpunk 2077, the game by CDPR?

Dorohedoro is pretty good, though its not really traditional cyberpunk

>>35938685
try imagining it relative to a specific city...forget about tokyo and hong kong, what if moscow was a cyber city? what about berlin, or caracas, or rejkjavik? the aesthetic is only tied because it's always a dark neon asian city. try to imagine it with different architecture, street signs, etc. but keep the futuristic tech and high-rise night city aesthetic and it should be more interesting. Especially works for a game, eg. Deus Ex being set in prague gave it a very different feel than blade runner or GitS but it was still very cyber.

I saw Ghost In The Shell today and as bad as it was the visuals were fucking gorgeous. Gave me some ideas on how to move this thing forward.

Thanks bruv, much appreciated. I've been writing it really whenever the mood strikes, so I'm just sort of putting it together as I go along. I have a vague idea of how I want it to end (Jonathan quits being a fucking pussy and kills the main bad guy who I don't know yet and Kira gets one a them Steak Sammiches) but really any ideas I have I just toss in haphazardly and try to make them stick.

I really like the Desperado hidden gun thing in the casino though, that's fun as fuck for me.

Slavoj Zizek was just on the news (RT) today predicting that if Neuralink does indeed create technology to directly connect the human brain with cyberspace / internet, it will create a biological class division between the few who are disconnected and control the network and the many who unknowingly have their thoughts manipulated by the network

The fact that this nightmare scenario is a concern is promising

musicals are inherently trashy but sooooo much fun
the one gay stereotype i fall under is the love of musicals

Frankly I can't do musicals, at least in movie format. Stage productions are fine. The Blues Brothers is one of my favorite movies tho if u count that. Little Shop of Horrors is also ok.

Cyberpunk musical when?

>>35941403
I love stage productions
also who knows, i'd watch a snowcrash musical, that'd be goofy as hell i'd love it

Unfortunate, but I suppose it also serves as a hidden blessing to dissuade companies from to trying to make more anime and the like into mainstream products.

>>35942764
Why wouldn't you want that?
Anime is like the best thing to go mainstream since you can enjoy it alone and the people making it don't care.

CyberPunk seems to be set in the 2030s and 40s, but it starts round the 20s. Do you guys think we are heading that way or will it be a disappointment?

>>35943656
We will be disappointed.
