Devs are kinda funny when it comes to dystopia. They want me to believe that the world run by the evil stand ins for rightwingers is horrible by making it clean, functional and having a disciplined population. It always has the opposite effect.

I'd rather live in a clean and functional dystopia where I have to skirt around the laws than a violent destitute shithole where the laws are little more than a suggestion
>>
The defining feature of a dystopia is that it denies its citizens hedonism (good) for strict rigid order ostensibly building up to something that would elevate the species, but in reality it's all in service of the hedonism of its leaders (bad) whose hedonistic drives are allowed total unrestrained debauched expression. If the leaders also followed their own principles and took seriously the ascension of humanity it wouldn't be a dystopia. But they don't. National Socialism only existed so Hitler could have loads of Weimar sex, not so that humankind would benefit as a whole.

The underclass of night city (the runners) literally have a hideout that mogs most modern mansions. They have a fucking hyper minimalist living room with board games and a TV with LED lights and bedrooms. If THIS is how the underclass lives, imagine how great Glass City is for the middle class.

This. Everyone would have to post with their full government name and home address, and if they post even one of the four thousand no-nos the government doesn't want you to (like hate crimes against trannies) they'll gun you down and your dog too. But at least there's no niggers.

You mean it's a dystopia? Yeah I agree with you. china is a dystopia.

The entire reason why Faith carries around letters is thst they have all-reaching digital surveillance and actively stomp down on wrongthink. If they could just discuss their opinions freely in 4chan or whatever, there wouldn’t be much need for runners.

Utopian dystopia is very common in fiction and Mirror's Edge didn't invent it

City 17 does not have clean streets what are you talking about. There's trash and litter everywhere. Glass City from Mirror's Edge has like.... Zero trash on the streets.

Don't criticize israel. Don't say mean things about minorities. Don't eat meat. Don't play video games. Don't resist daily body cavity searches.

Yeah but how is Glass City dystopian again?
>They have le enforcers or something
Every country has a police force.
>Mass surveillance
Every country has mass surveillance now. It's 2026. Europe has china tier surveillance. America is slowly ramping up it's surveillance network with Palantir and Flock.

And yet. Everyone goes on with their lives. You can't fall for the fearmongering. You can't live in constant paranoia.

You're seriously going for the political thread.
Alright so you're on a good ol' discussion forum and a mod is powertripping, you can't post shit without triggering his fag ass, the suckers are towing his line because they don't want to get banned, that's a fascist society. Because 1 retarded lunatic is always stronger than 1 good man thanks to the power of cheating and he's going to grab that position.

Not even China looks this good nor has SWAT teams who have the time of day to track down rooftop couriers.
What was the storyline even implying you were delivering? I don't even remember why it had the big action sequence at the end.

>>749796897
City 17 is a shithole even in the alien architecture sections. It's not even clear why people are being kept alive. You also have to excuse everyone being American with American accents whilst living in Slavland because the art director or whatever was Slavic but had no real creative control.

City 17 is a shithole, everything is trashed, everyone is a slave and the streets are filthy, that's what real dystopia looks like, nothing like Mirrors edge.

Your problem is that you're so retarded, servile, and unimaginative that you can only imagine two possibilities. You serve the government and everything is okay or anarchy because a stable society where the government serves its people's best interest is scary for you because you're not serving a jew.
>>
>>749798291
It's not really a right wing thing. It's an authoritarian one.
>>
>>749798469
If everything is clean and prosperous, why would it matter whether people are given a permission to voice their opinions about politics or not? Shouldn’t the ideal be to create such a society that politics are obsolete and aren’t needed anymore? In such a society, anyone who wants to talk about politics would have no reason to do it but cause chaos and disorder.

So what was it about this thread specifically that made leftists have a meltdown?
>>
>>749796236
It's always like that. Everything's clean, crime is down, the trains run on time, but of its bad because they're mean to minorities(which we won't show because having a character call someone anything harsher than "the black" is bad, just take our word for it).

Granted this is genuinely a dystopia for them because they entirely run on pretending to solve problems, so if they're no problems then they have no legs to stand on.
>>
>>749796097
It's post-cyberpunk dystopia rather than cyberpunk dystopia.
>>
>>749799146
It’s called techno dystopia
>>
>>749799071
Leftists can’t comprehend the idea that regular people don’t give a shit about whether they’re being allowed to protest or complain as long as shit works. In a perfectly clean and safe society, only mentally ill faggots feel the need to protest.
>>
>>749796768
Cyberpunk is incorrectly called a dystopia. It isn't one. Nobody would play a game about life as a prole in 1984 because there would be no entertainment value. This is because the setting is dystopian. If you can make a game about it that people enjoy it either isn't a dystopia or you've taken the dystopian elements out of it.

>>749799273
The way I see it, the dystopian part of Cyberpunk is that there’s really no rule of law, anyone with power (be it through corpos or gangs) ruthlessly uses it in an eternal, violent struggle against each other with complete disregard about what happens to people in between. Sure it has ways to get rich if you are ruthless and properly skilled, but for vast majority, it’s a crushing existence.

You realize you'll have to give up your car to achieve that? And they're planning to force you out of yours, first by making driving an even more miserable experience, and then by banning driving private vehicles in public altogether.
But it'll be much much safer and cleaner, so you'll be alright with that?
