Better than season 1 for sure
D got the Soma coin flip ending
>>291799105The only way it could have been better is if we had a full frontal of Omis tits
Wish Talia was slightly older, like in her 20s>>291799105I agree, but season 1 is great too. I just prefer more hopeful stories
In which episode Capri put an hand in front of D. eyes and makes him see some sort of flashback/still images?
>>291799105S1 and S2 are completely different types of stories, they can hardly be compared.S1 is a dose of cold, hard reality and deconstruction of shounen power fantasies.S2 is hopium and Slavic optimism among suffering.
D's story being told by his dream flashbacks was kino
>Yes Roman, I can play DOOM on my mouth
>>291799156But can you kiss with it?
>>291799156Finally a way to play videogames with women
Post the funny.

>>291799258>Only characters with biblical name >Suffer the mostWhat did they mean by this?
>>291799223So trauma team package is expensive as fuck but you still have to pay the healthcare bill afterwards??
Now that I think about it cp would be better with zero blacksTalia could've just as well been a child of 2 whites CDPR should take note for s3
>>291799302Yeah, TT is first aid basically.
>>291799304Mhm, this one right here officer
>>291799258SoEpisode 6 of Season 1 or Episode 8 of Season 2?

For me though?Kiwi in ER1 and Yupi in ER2
>SHEER>FUCKING>WILLPOWER
>>291799203>>291799298It's about David vs Goliath
Who the FUCK names their son "Weak"
>>291799295She's such a great subversion.>Based on their initial meeting you'd think she's a hardened criminal living it out on the street.>In reality she's a socially and emotionally stunted teenager who spent most of her life in a hospital, is deeply traumatized, scared and filled with anger and despair, and falls in love with literally the first person who showed her she has value outside of her chrome.
I could've saved her...
As someone who was introduced to anime via shonens that had 80% filler and stuff like shafts slideshows being a noteworthy highlight in storytelling cp s1-2 are like a dream projects in terms of art, animation quality, plot pacing and tone.It's like going from playing crimson desert to playing a remedy game
Boring underwear.
>>291799203>>291799223>>291799263Stop being so funny I’m supposed to hate it here
>>291799391
>>291799379s3's MC is going to be david (in english) "dave" david (in spanish) davidson (his father's name is also david)
>>291799391They let Kojima name one character in exchange for the cameo
>>291799461>>291799379Who's going to be the inevitable Polish character who survives?The game has Misty.S1 has Lucy (Lucyna).S2 has Roman.
>>291799477Dawid (not to be confused with David)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRSTaBZfxK4&list=PLl-vhnGPY7cpGmDrC1P5qzY9QebtwuYAe&index=2
>>291799507Felt S1 did a much better job of incorporating music from the game than 2
>>291799391>weak>is actually strongBravo Kojima
>>291799519They had the guy from Silent Hill, composer from base game and the one from the DLC.I don't even think season 2 had specific guys working on it, was just the director winging it and it shows
>>291799577Shame twitter and redditt didnt allow cdpr write in an extra episode of talia and roman going on a date
>>291799516I need D saying "Shapri-shan..." with one tooth as a vocaroo now
I JUST WANNA CALL YOUI JUST WANNA SAYI JUST WANNA LOVE YOUEVEN FAR AWAAAAAAAAAAAAAY>>291799596twitter and reddit are literally irrelevant
I wanna be a shota again
>>291799353thats rough.
>>291799617I was a really cute shota too, i could easily be molested by hot older women if i put some heart in it
>>291799617
>>291799519It's hard to use music from the game when they already used all the good songs. All the stations other than Body Heat Radio sucked
Haven't watched cyberpunk animu will never watch cyberpunk animu who lives who died?
what was the moral of d's story
>>291799662Everyone>>291799667Cyberpussy will kill you
>>291799637They still had good songs to use. Like Kill Kill, Kill the Messenger, Pain, all the gang themes.People weren't even heavy on I wanna stay at your house before the anime but the way they used it made you like it. Didn't even try with the season 2 ost at all, they put like 2 horrible french mumble rap for some reason
>>291799667Don't always try to be a heroAnd FUCK that AI pussy hard
>>291799667Being dumb is bad, only stupid people seek meaning from pursuing revenge. Also something about doing what you want to do for urself instead of pursuing other peoples goals
>>291799662All of the 4 protags live
>>291799667>what was the moral of d's storyShow how Arasaka has fallen because Adam Smasher would BTFO that fag in 1 milisecondHe started struggling once actual operators showed up and not cops/random bodyguards
>>291799636ROCK AND STONE
>>291799667Try to get revenge faster because someone else might just beat you to it
>>291799637>they already used all the good songsNot true.I was waiting for Afterlife by Thai McGrath + JustCosplaySings, which was added in PL.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWcGI5ylitQObviously it couldn't be used in S1, as the radio station was added in 2.0, but I figured it was a shoo-in for S2...
Feel like shit just want him back x
>>291799667>what was the moral of d's storyIf you look and act like Sasuke girls will love you no matter what.
>>291799693>only stupid people seek meaning from pursuing revengeI don't think that's entirely true, avenging your people isn't entirely treated like a bad thing since D always points out that the ghosts of his people still haunt his assIt's more like that D kept pursuing revenge even if he already got it
>>291797362>she can't escape to the internet.We literally saw her escape into a satellite in the last episode, stop coping.
Isn't Talia and Roman just Char and Lalah Sune but with their roles switched
>>291799105...is what a retard would say.
>>291799105They're equally good :)Literally a Kill Bill Volume 1 and 2 situation, S1 and S2 complete each other
What are Roman’s favorite movies?
>>291799763ThisS1 was about going out in a blaze of gloryS2 was about living a long life as Mr Nobodies
>>291799763S1 was lighting in a bottle situationS2 is merely aoty
>>291799596The age difference is only, what, 3 years? Talia is 15 or something so it's hardly the same as Lucy who in her mid to late 20s dating David who was an actual teenager.
>>291799477Cybernetic John Paul 2 There are atleast 3 guys at cdpr who want to popepost
>>291799502>>291799477I mean it basically HAS to be either Dawid (Pole) or Dave.
>>291799763>They're equally good :)No, S1 was objectively superior. Stop lying to yourself and to others.
>>291799105I think season 1 was more memorable. Nothing can compare to the final boss showing up at the last minute and wiping the whole party
>>291799782Season 2 must be a masterpiece if you watch seasonal anime regularly
>>291799791>Lucy who in her mid to late 20sShe's "around 20" when the series starts, per Sztybor.
>>291799791I dont need comparisons to other media, I just want the content and character dynamic exploration
>>291799782>S2 is merely aotyAktchually my AOTY is still probably Jaadugar. Then GitS and Cyberpunk close second>>291799799>S1 was objectively superior.S1 had higher highs but S2 was more consistent throughout the entire season. And I'm not wearing rose tinted glasses either since I've literally rewatched Edgerunners 1 like a few months ago when the trailers for ER2 came out
>>291799667Stop being a bitch
>>291799519yeah because S1 used music from the game. S2 used all new stuff, CDPR added a radio station in the game that just plays the S2 soundtrack.
>>291799667If you dont hookup with your hot cf tomboy friend powers that be will kill you with misslesAlso revenge isnt constructive or smth
>>291799839She had no value to him
>>291799799I like S2 more than S1
>>291799839>Also revenge isnt constructive or smthActually, do your revenge quickly otherwise someone else might arrive first
>>291799799No. Normies love S1 which means it's actually bad.
>>291799667Pursue fun
Since her age is never explicitly said, in my head Talia is the oldest a teen can possibly be because it's hotter that way
>>291799087WE'LL DIE TALIA!
>>291799734Same.
>>291799834I liked the jaadugar manga alrightgits 1st ep was pretty lame
its cute how much talia's personality does a 180 when she's talking to roman
>>291799915>Strong Plebsley
Why is he always sweating and saying "huh"?
>>291799913Holy based
Edgerunners series is great but a little too overrated.
>>291799934It gets hot in Night City
>Who invited the kid?
>>291799274There's no way that stupid meme number is true.
>>291799926what does AI pussy smell like?
>>291799087Making Roman a kid ruined it.He speaks far too maturely and proposes mature points. The only thing that felt childish is being fooled by the midget woman.Showing me a kid while having him act more mature than any kid would and occasionally more than the adults, is just retarded.
>No one's special>Lots of people thought that. Believed they're wired different.>But every one of them spiraled over the edge...or flatlined before they had the chance.Talia should've responded: "Explain Adam Smasher then faggot. He's 96% chrome."
>>291799966would've been nice if roman was an actual MC
>>2917996671) Revenge bad2) Find a new meaning in life and move on past the trauma instead of being stuck in the past
Our guy did nothing wrong
Rebecca is virgin. Stay mad
>>291799928Yeah, it's called "falling in love."
>Kyoko does everything in her power to get Capri even though it doesn't give a shit about her>Many people died for it and she kill more if needed>Was fine fucking over D and the others>Suddenly now she wants to save themThis show has such a weird mixed messages.
>Babe im bored>let's go blow up some Arasaka shit
>>291799999quints of absolute love
>>291799667I wouldn't say it was something gay like "revenge bad" but more "let old ghosts rest" The moments he's happiest, or just generally content is when he's with Roman and they're working on his videos or the first time he and Capri let loose and go car surfing. He forgets all the survivor guilt about being the last of his clan, but when he's left alone or worse with Yupi he spirals even further into his personal vendetta against Arasaka. Omi had the right idea about giving up on the revenge idea, but she was too blunt about it to the point that she only pushed him to double down on it. Though this is also a show, so bringing up the plot hook of discovering who at Arasaka ordered the job that killed his clan just get dropped would be a bit of a letdown by itself so unless they wrote something else that would've been as satisfying, he has to follow that bloody trail to it's end no matter how bad it got for him.
>>291799991Was he really one dimensional asshole corpo or genuinely cared about his daughter in some twisted way? If it's the former why didn't Avida never see any red flags in how he treated Talia?
>>291799980It’s Night City. You grow up fast, or you die.
>>291799834>but S2 was more consistent throughout the entire seasonConsistently shit yeah.
>>291800006She didn't care about saving them. She cared about having capri to herself and a host she could have it act through with a leash. If she had survived helping them she would have tried to take capri again
>>291800013>my cock is named arasaka
>>291800006She wants to protect Capri. She would rather protect Capri and die over living and letting Capri die
>>291799999check'd and lovepilled
>>291799981>He got zeroed by a gonk with a dildo.
>>291799993>vulgar and loud>always prone to kill anyone who stand in her wayIs she like Revy but smaller?
>>291799999Holy checked quint/ss/ https://litter.catbox.moe/mfvsqn.jpg
>>291799856I told you to stop fucking lying.
>>291799991>GENES>BLOODLINE>BONE STRUCTUREbro had receipts ready and waiting
>>291800006Episode 10 and now she's willing to sacrifice by setting off an EMP next to a giant blob of vehicles she knows the EMP will cause to fall onto her. Her final moments she's holding out so that she can warn D and Capri about what's going to happen next.It was a completely out of character.
>>291799705>Show how Arasaka has fallen because Adam Smasher would BTFO that fag in 1 milisecondWouldn't he just EMP Smasher's whole body and wreck him?
>>291799695Isn't Talia suffering with incurable giga aids
>>291799999TRVTH NVKE
>>291800062I prefer happy endings over sad endingsAnd also /ss/
>>291800025You can see in flashbacks that Talia is traumatized by the guy. She also doesn't like to be touched by men, which also implies some darker things.
>>291799928She was trying to manipulate him.
>>291799981Smasher is a 1 in a billion anomaly, well 2 in a billion since V is like that too who doesn't go cyberpsycho no matter how many mods he installs
>>291800057If you're going to be an artists could you at least try not to suck at it?
>>291800025Hard to say. He didn't report his daughters condition immediately, but he was also testing company property on her with the excuse of helping her. Being a corpo probably got in the way of him going home and being a family man, but he didn't do anything on screen worth dying for. Outside of shooting avida and those two goons, but thats just another day in night city
talia will LIVEroman will MARRY herking will be a GRANDFATHERthis is CANON
>>291799991>>291800065this was such a mega cope
>>291800065What bones? She’s replaced nearly all of them.
>>291799087AAAAAAAAAA I'M HOPEMAXXING!!!
>>291800086manipulate him into a loving relationship and sex, yes
He should've pulled the trigger
>>291800092Surely her original mouth is in storage and can be reattached, right?You can remove Arm/Leg Cyberware in game and get your fleshy limbs back, iirc..
>>291800080>D is dead>Capri is dead>Talia is still going to die>happy ending
>>291799413capri looks like THAT??
>>291800075No, the engram fixed her brain damage>umm how does it do thatIt just does, V's engram literally fixed a bullet to the brain
>>291800028Doesn't make sense, he acts more mature than adults that grew up in the same city at times. It's just retarded.For whatever reason they wanted him to be a kid and they created a disconnect between what you see, and the story and speech.Ironic because the Roman character would have noticed that and criticised them for doing it.
>>291799928That's the power of shota.
>>291799981Adam smasher is actually so sociopathic that it cancels out cyberpsychosis.It's like some sort of twisted horseshoe theory where you're better off the better person and life you have, unless you're so sick that going postal gives you fulfilment .
>>291800132D and Capri aren't dead, they went to the satelliteYou literally see D digitizing in the final attackTalia was fixed by Capri, play the game
>>291800099>"I'm not reading all that"
>>291800139>Doesn't make sense, he acts more mature than adults that grew up in the same city at times. It's just retarded.Anon...He doesn't drink.He doesn't take drugs.His brain isn't fried by BDs.His brain isn't fried by chrome addiction.That puts him above 80% of the population,
>>291799991I am so confused what his ultimate goal was? At first I thought he was grooming his daughter to be the ultimate host for this project. He is very much aware his daughter is fucking dying and his wife will do anything to save him. Decides to kill his wife to stop her from giving her a new body. Suddenly on board of forcing his daughter to be overwritten. Somehow is shocked his daughter hates him. I feel like this man was even more stupid than the first one that did it all for greed. Like he didn't even seem that focused on wanting to take over the corporation. It also pissed me off they were trying to make you feel bad about not revenge killing his ass. The weird thing is he could have gotten away with it all if he just played along in the effort to save his daughter then do this shit.
How come Yupi didn't want to molest Roman?
>>291800132>>D is dead>>Capri is deadNope, they went to the satellite>>Talia is still going to dieNope, she was cured>>happy endingCorrect>latinx ball picOf course
>>291800150Writing text in a funny made up language is kinda low tier
>>291800139>>291800167Oh, also...His brain isn't fried by trauma and PTSD.
>>291800137The engram fixed V by rewriting his brain with Johnny. The engram doesn't have V's brain and can't fill in the gaps with it, it uses Johnny to fill it in.The biochip fixes Talia despite not having Talia in the contructs that makes up Capri.Vik tells you all this straight after the heist.
>>291800116
>>291800139>For whatever reason they wanted him to be a kidThat reason being the fact shotas are cute and sexy and that /ss/ is the purest form of love
>>291800175She lacked a father figure so she priorized men higher than her
I am once again disappointed there was no Us Cracks
>>291800155>D and Capri aren't deadWe saw them die. They're dead.>Talia was fixed by Capripicrel
>>291799991Hes a racemixer,sellout,bad father,dresses like tryhard and let his black bitch wife get fatAnd hes K*rean
>>291800188He probably is traumatized, but he deals with it pretty well.
>>291799667DON'T.DATE.AI!!!
>>291800175Lust to molest Roman < Lust to destroy ArasakaYupi was truly built different.
>>291799999Holy shit i got quints the other day advocating for straight shota in these threads tooBle/ss/ed
>>291800214Too busy going on a world tour with Kerry
>>291800167>>291800188He's still 12. Furthermore, he's a 12 year old that doesn't go to school and hasn't for long enough that he had previous work with his cameras.A 20 year old heroin addict that was home schooled would walk laps around Roman mentally.It's just bad character design.
>>291800180>she was curedMeanwhile in reality
>>291799662>who lives who died?The ending is bittersweet this time, in the sense that everyone else survives, but... apart from the camera child, the others have only a brief moment of happiness.
So season 2 is basically what happens if David was allowed to walk away? King just stopped due to cyberpsychosis and at the end of the story he found a reason to LIVE despite having issues working through everything.
>>291799632I was unmitigated autism but if the right woman found it endearing I could’ve probably been coerced by some tummy. My tummy fetish was at its peak when I was Roman’s age
>>291800170I'm going to play devil's advocate and say that he knew his wife was plotting something when he checked his work computer and found it had been tampered with, and again with her excuse not quite adding up to why she was there in the first place. Add on he knew both that Weak was the merc he hired (and was also an old flame of his wife) that botched the job that got him demoted, and he was already starting to come up with reasons to either kill her or have her killed while having plausible deniability over it happening. But yeah, once Kang Tao gets the chip and Kyoko offers to have it installed in Talia and he goes with it, that's where it's hard to really justify it all. He just goes full soulless corpo from that point forward.
>>291800175>How come Yupi didn't want to molest Roman?Because Yupi had daddy issues>>291800244>it's this faggot againYou already were raped the last time you posted that pic
>>291800175Because she's a normal well-adjusted woman.
>>291800170He was a corpo rat trying to climb the ladder. As soon as his wife downloaded those files he was compromised and had to clean up before the corp was informed. Theres not much deeper to it than him being a corpo rat like all the others.
>>291800244>Cool design, a mechanical body that allows for interesting possibilities, and a character introduced with a cool sequence. She ends up being reduced to a mere narrative tool, with no freedom to do anything else.Kinda sad.
>>291800087V has a cyberpsychosis blocker in form of SilverhandYou cant lose yourself to cyberpsychosis if your body is being hijacked by a cyberghost
>>291800252KindaBut Kingsley's character was a perfect representation of everything Maine couldn't doCutting down on implants, willing to accept and manage Cyberpsychosis, letting go of his "Edgerunner" life because he didn't want to lose that Night City definition of importance and dignity
Finished it last night. Talia and Roman should have spent more time together. Omi deserved more screen time. Yupi was useless. The music was a downgrade compared to season 1. That being said I still enjoyed it. Definitely deserves a rewatch.
>>291799109There's no coin flip. That's what the protagonist was lead to believe so he would help
>>291800265>no argument Your concession is accepted, faggot. Watch slower next time.
>>291800170My understanding was he knew his daughter would one day die, so he always planned on wiping her personality and letting Capri take over. If anything you could make a case for it as a kind of assisted dying. This is all massive cope on his part, in the end he's just a soulless corpo willing to use his own daughter as a test subject, but that's how he saw it I think. If nothing can be done to save her then he could justify doing this. What he did not take into account was his daughter's personality surviving the takeover, and obviously she would hate him for deciding this for her and also killing her mum, so he got what he deserved in the end.
The revenge was fine the issue was they were going after nobodies who didn't matter if they died making it aimless and pointless. Just like all these stupid riots they take out everything except the actual people in charge giving it an easy excuse to go against it. I wouldn't be shocked if the corps kill another clan of people shortly after for no good reason.
>>291800306The protagonist of Soma was both a brain damaged retard and Canadian though. He wasn't going to understand the situation even if you put it in an Indian accent.
>>291800309Capri cured Talia, watch the show
>>291800025I don't think he really cared about Talia, at least not during the story. He seemed to be trying to save his own skin, because if he failed his boss would can him. He raised Talia specifically to get soul-wiped by an unstable semi-AI construct and when the started running rampant and trying to kill him, his reaction wasn't "oh no please take her alive if possible, she's not in her right mind", it was "OH GOD FUCK FUCK FUCK AIRSTRIKE IT NOW OH SHIT OH FUCK IT'S GONNA KILL ME WHERE'S MY BACKUP FUCK"
i watched season 1 and 2 but never played the game. Should I start?
>>291800132>Happy EndingLeaving NC is the only happy ending.
>>291800264Dad cared about Talia but he cared about the body more than the mind so he was willing to fix her disease by replacing her mind. Mom cared about Talia but she cared about the mind more than the body so she was willing to soulkill her to make a new Talia.Neither of them liked current Talia and thought she was a fucked up freak
>>291800303The music was horrendously bad.Seems like they blew through all the game score with Season 1 and was out of luck for 2 if they didn't want to repeat the music.
What are your thoughts on a protagonist like Roman?I aspire to make my own content someday and I wonder if a character his age wouldn't get on people's nerves.Would you mind if a character his age ended up in a relationship with someone older? Say, a 6 year age gap with someone that's a proper adult?Would you mind if he got hurt physically, mentally and emotionally?Would you mind if he realistically faced exposure to danger and isolation?Would you mind if he died in the end?
>>291800336Sure. Game is good and the expansion is even better, there's also tons of cool mods for it
>>291800336CP really benefits from higher end systems visually, so if you cant push the RT now you can save it for later.
>>291799418Are those tats or does D also have cyberarms?
I need to know who was behind the idea of shota.
>>291800363RT barely looks different and PT is too demanding.
>>291799991I really wish Talia called King "Dad" in front of this guy's face as one final stab that he lost any connection he had to his family.
>>291800298I think Kingsley's fall would've been more effective if we spent more time with him before he succumbs to cyberpsychosis, as opposed to opening with that right from the start. V losing all his chrome in the PL ending hits hard because we've been through a lot with V as a legend and have seen them accomplish the impossible with it, only to be rendered powerless. Doesn't quite work the same with King falling to the bottom in like 5 minutes of knowing him. Overall I felt like the season needed more breathing room to develop the characters as it struggles to juggle all four of them effectively.
>>291799203>>291800230
thoughts on Roman's movie cut?https://x.com/Epic_Jimmy/status/2113409521141882969
>>291800335Capri looks so much like my aigf.
>>291800355I mentioned it >>291799980He's a kid, he doesn't act like a kid, it creates a disconnect. I already mentioned it but Roman himself would criticise the Roman character for being a kid who acts too mature and ruining the story.
>>291800291But didn't the game itself suggest that cyberpsychosis doesn't really exist, or rather, that it isn't strictly linked to implants? There were several in-game texts explaining that it’s essentially just a nervous breakdown brought on by life in Night City. It’s just that when a down-and-out drug addict loses their mind, nobody notices; but when someone armed to the teeth with a military-grade body does it, it naturally makes a lot more noise.Ironically, the reason Smasher is immune to it is simply because "he doesn't give a fuck.".
>>291800355>What are your thoughts on a protagonist like Roman?Fine, not into the cinephile thing though>I aspire to make my own content someday and I wonder if a character his age wouldn't get on people's nerves.CowardI will make a game or webcomic someday with a cute shota MC with a optional romance with a hag and i don't give a shit about people's nerves. Either a Bully type game or a hack n slash>Would you mind if he got hurt physically, mentally and emotionally?>Would you mind if he realistically faced exposure to danger and isolation?Depends if well done>Would you mind if he died in the end?Yes that would be lame
>>291800369wife
>>291800349Mother didn't like the fact the Talia is going to fucking die, the body was the cause for her impending death so she was willing to risk replacing it. Ultimately the mind is who a person is, and if everything went according to her plan the "real" Talia would be saved, so it's not like she's anywhere near as selfish cunt as the father.
I DON'T WANT TO WATCH YOUR FUCKING SNUFF FILM, ROMAN!!!
bitch
>>291800406I want to make a webcomic too, but I'm worried that it'll get shut down.

>>291800349>>291800414>soulkill her to make a new TaliaBut isnt that just a AI copy of the person, and not the actual personOr is it cyber magic
>>291800242We know nothing about Roman's personal life and Sztybor said in an interview yesterday this is completely intentional.
>>291800359What the fuck is the point of removing the mouth? I can understand mechanical implants, arms, legs, other parts, but the mouth? I could even get behind a faceplate that closes up, like Casshern’s, that’s cool, but I don’t see the point of removing part of the face.
>>291800431I think it was out of line for Talia to hit king. Guy fulfilled his word and only wanted a few minutes of her time. She could have probably run away and he wouldn't be able to chase her anyway.
FUCK SNAKE NATION
>>291800372CyberarmsYou can also get them on the game now with the latest update
>>291800404I refuse to belive that being raised for generations in nc and grtting your mind broken by stress is more powerful than removal of limbs and attaching foreign objects to your nervous systemImagine your brain trying to reconcile between having phantom pains and yet having a connected working arm wired into old nerve endingsAnimals have the right idea,go with gene engineering instead of cybernetics
>>291800414Avida was just as concerned about Talia losing what was left of her body as much as she was her mind, because the whole Soul Killer thing wasn't even a guarantee, just a long shot chance to save some part of her daughter. Frankly the one time I was hoping Weak would put his foot down and tell her no was letting her go do merc shit when that's his wheelhouse and something he knows better than anything as well as having connections to even make it possible at all.
>>291800434That's censorshipAlso unless you live in a third world shithole it won't. There's tons of straight shota manga out there and even more doujin
>>291800459She's ageist.Also, her mother sent King.
>>291800468That's why, within the setting, Europe had gone towards full bio-engineering.
>>291800458So she couldn't physically kiss roman.
>>291800387Kingsley needed more time because he was coolTalia needed more character moments before we found out she was super sick and dyingD's whole revenge arc was too long we get it already Roman was just right but seeing his BD store guys more would be niceI feel like they could have balanced it a lot better between the four.
>>291800446>But isnt that just a AI copy of the personYeah, but she didn't know that.
>>291800328>Capri cured Talia
>>291800404Yeah, cyberpsychosis is not that tied to just the chrome but more like the breaking mind that is exacerbated by the disassociation chrome gives. Not to mention how much damage a crazy guy with a lot of tech can do. Normal people go crazy too, but they can't do as much harm.The reason V is immune is that his psyche is 'shared' with Johnny, so it's very durable. The reason corporations push for cyberpsychosis just being a result of chrome is that it's a better marketing angle and it lets them kill 'cyberpsychos' with impunity.Kingsleys psychosis isn't 'as bad', in that sense, so it's no wonder he manages to bounce back.
>>291799763>>291799781the problem with s2 is not about how it ended, it's about how the character arcs wereD's was rushed, Roman didn't have any, Talia felt like she had no agency in her own and King's was focused on Avida rather than Talia which made it feel detached from the main plot
>>291799737D never got his revenge. All the people who killed his people were already dead. The 'Saka corpo he vaporized didn't even have anything to do with the death of his clan, nor did the Maelstrom dudes he deep-fried.
>We made Capri who has done nothing except resist and fight back>Causes mayhem any time anyone uses her>Decide to put her in the ultimate weapon of a daughter>Put them in a room with all electronics including the restraints>It goes berserk againI don't know who though keeping around Capri was a good idea. Like wouldn't it have made more sense to fill it with bodies of soulless corps who bend over for anyone?
>>291800446Its an exact duplicate of their memories but the original is still dead. Replacing Talia with a new one would help the mom because she would still have a daughter but all it does is kill the real Talia
>>291800459She's a traumatized, scared child. Also it's shown several times she's scared of adult men because they give her flashbacks of her father.
>>291800446A copy, but within universe 99% of people don't know that, in the game Johnny in your head is a glorified chagpt
>>291799667Moral?Story?
>>291800501Watch the anime>>291800512That is really retarded, i would rather die
>>291800450We know he's 12, we know he has worked with the man he sells his film to for long enough to buy himself a better camera, we know he was able to spend multiple days straight editing D's footage and we know he is constantly available.And ignoring all that. If he was getting home schooled and tutored by the best of the best in every field, he's still fucking 12.
>>291800458Gator jaw,having a tiny grenade launcher there,diffrent digestive system (theres a mouth that lets you eat food and shit a pellet out thru the mouth),you have pure prussian genes but want a bigger jaw/chin,it got shot off,bone disease,built in ketchup dispenser etc
>>291800511That's why her project was shelved and she was deemed a failure, though?
people only say season 1 is better because of the last episode
>>291800497>>291800526Are cyberpunk people low IQ? That's like really obvious just put two and two together
>>291800369>>291800391Sex. D was so lucky
>>291800464ExactlyImma start with omi
>>291800355>What are your thoughts on a protagonist like Roman?I really wanna meet him and i really want all that up my pussy and ass.I want him to cum on me my face and cum all over my mouth.
>>291800511You need high empathy to resist capri
Why was Roman so nonchalant with seeing and recording D and his gang of psychos murder innocent people? Like yeah, you could argue that corpos aren't innocent but from a 12 yo's perspective they were just normal, defenseless people pleading for their lives and his reaction was stone-cold.
>ghost in the shell>cyberpunk edgerunners 2 We eating GOOD this year, cyberpunk bros. What's next for us?
>>291800550the ending of a story matters a lot
>>291800550Better music, better animation, better character animations, better depiction of night city and all its excess and all its danger.
>>291800446The original Talia is killed and replaced by a data-based copy. Essentially, nothing changes for the original Talia, she is destined to die, but a copy of her, can "be reborn." One of the reasons why Saburo has never used it, limiting himself to maintaining a "prison" of souls for fun.
>>291800568But he was against it. Thats why he brought kyoko to D
>>291800552Most people are that low IQ.The average person is retarded enough that they'd believe it's possible for them to live forever by having their brain digitalised. They lack the comprehension needed to acknowledge that their brain is them, not just the way it operates and thinks but the physical brain itself.
>>291800580>GitStheres a new series/movie?
>>291800511>insane midget>desperate """father""" trying to make it as a corpoThey were clearly done with her at Arasaka
>>291800550and because david was an actual mcand because the music was betterand because the story was betterand because the city was better
>>291800552Some are but It’s also one of those things you’d rather lie to yourself about.Like King not checking if Talia is really his child.
Season 3 will subert expectations and be about a man named Garry
>>291799105Season 1 was good but the characters were weak - generic Cyberpunk gang bangers.Season 2 was okay, the characters were good but the story went nowhere, the ending was far too optimistic for the setting and D caused more suffering than David ever could have hoped for but got away with it.
>>291800580gits gets a new season

>>291800552Yes they areYou either are an retard,normie from a shit school which was defunded and twisted by corpo cash,come from a corpo academy like david before he dropped out or you are a nomad and have been homeschooled using century old material with few updates and removal of corpo shillingNomads are employed in construction as both workers and architects/civil engineers/advisorsPanams clan is around nc hoping to work under biotechnica
>>291800604>theres a new series/movie?Anon, I...
>>291800613>and because the city was betternigger what? its the same fucking city.
>>291800320Yeah, I liked that the point wasn't the usual "revenge bad" but D going off the rails and not even getting any closure from it because the one that actually called the hit was already dead. Plus D deciding to drop it because being happy together with Capri reminded me of Count of Monte Cristo>tfw Haydee always gets cut from adaptations
>>291800568Night city has a 2-6% annual murder rate. Roman scrolls, and also works for Sal. He was already desensitized when he watched King's slaughter, so we can argue that he's already seen some shit. The camera also creates a barrier to distance himself from the reality of the situation.He gets scared, he knows what happens when Trauma Team shows up, he's seen people die. If he was the type to freeze up from danger, he would never be where he is, now would he be in the biz of scrolling the streets.
>>291800550>people only say season 1 is better because of the last episode...and episodes 1 - 9, and the music, and the mc, and rebecca, and maine
>see thread >no Roman x Kyoko images Sad
>Didn't leave his side even when D got caught and everyone was getting decimated around herCyber Panty was pure. I bet her blowjobs were out of this world. Her father rest in peace would be proud
>>291799105Absolutely not. It bit off too much for the same episode count.
>>291800576Season 2 couldve been a smilling friends style comedy with these two and I would be happy with it
>>291800654She was a whore.Based on the tattood right arm she might've been a mox.
>>291800636not the same night city at all, nothing interesting is happening in itonly NC part was the couple with the car
>>291800534>Watch the animeTake your own advice.
Cyberpunk S2 has better animation.The music is worse, but the show itself is good. I’d even say it’s excellent up to episode 7, and the D/Roman storyline is genuinely enjoyable.The ending is a bit "meh," but it doesn't fall apart, and the show remains good in terms of quality. Season 1, on the other hand, is largely carried by its finale.Personally, I still have a hankering for an S3 with an MC Corpo.
I didn't play the game. Who is more OP Capri'd up D or endgame V?
>>291800681i want a second and third doctor's opinion
>>291800436fine you big babyhttps://files.catbox.moe/khhi6i.mp4
>>291800649NYC murder rate is about 3.8% so oddly Night City's murder rate isn't that far off from what we have now, so either murder isn't that common or the NCPD clean it up really well so no one gives too much of a shit about it.
>>291800694Dcapri
>>291800654>vapid bimbo slut >loved her old man dearly, enough that the drive to avenge him overrode her common senseThat was a surprising subservion and it worked well. Very tragic and underrated character.
>>291800681This refers to her use of cybernetics at full poweshe got them removed and was able to walk with a cane for short distancesKing is taking her to europe using her parents cas,shes gonna be fixed into sickly but living girlAnd then roman will feed her pierogi and they will have babies
>>291800694This is somewhat similar what you get at end of phantom liberty so idk, just visually more interesting.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_PWdjym25g
>>291800694D'CaprioEndgame v is peak of cyborg without full body swap (what smasher has)D with capri is cybermagneto
>>291800706This coping isn't healthy
>>291800694For D + Capri we’re talking about a level comparable to Tetsuo in "Akira", where he starts manipulating gravity. V has manifested Blackwall powers and incinerated people like D with that Corpo guy, but hasn’t done anything more than that.
>>291799477funfact "talia" in polish literally means "waist"
>>291800694Capri does far more than V ever tries.Which makes sense, Capri is a weapon, V just has a high cyberware tolerance because it's V and Johnny's minds taking the load in 1 body.Capri being multiple personalities instead of one will easily have a higher tolerance than V.Capri to V is miles ahead of what Smasher was to V.
>>291800719Yeah, but Roman is a nightcrawler. He probably gets some money recording some corpo drones shoot it out. Not like Sal would pay you money to record vids of puppies playing at the park.
>>291800727>This refers to her use of cyberneticsNo it's about what ever illness she has. She's still dying. You lost.

>>291800727The bugbear in this theoretical idea of yours is that she'd likely be too sickly to survive their first child.

I genuinely thought he would redeem himself or something like that because of how seemingly nervous he was whenever Talia was in the topic of discussion. But no, dude was an asshole. He probably didn't even loved Avida which makes the couple really weird

Once Talia dies Weak will likely kill himself so he dies with her like he said he would.
>>291800834It was a figure of speech you retard. What I mean is, Sal won't pay Roman for shit that isn't rare.Hell, Roman probably wouldn't even be allowed to talk to Sal, let alone be in the same private room as him. 100% Roman's dad put in a good word for him somewhere down the line and he got fixed up with the gig.

Even if Talia is still megadying Capri at least bought a lot of time by healing the parts of her body that were degrading over the last years. OUR King will keep moving foward and definitely cure her illness even if he has to bring her to EVROPE biotechGODs. Nightcity is a dystopic shithole after all, the simple fact that King and Talia are leaving the city means HOOOOOPEEEE.

>>291801251Just stop playing after Watson, and bam. Story is self contained about an up and coming merc and his crew dying after a botched job to steal from Arasaka. It's like the entire first act was written before Keanu and the Johnny Silverhand bit became the focus.
>>291799105Overall, in writing, yes, it has more interesting characters and themes. But season 1 had more memorable moments, mostly due to the use of tragedy and shock value.

I am considering buying the game on Switch 2 but something about it irks me the wrong way. The character jumping around killing everything with one shot makes me fear for the gameplay and difficulty. I've heard the story is amazing. Don't know, how lively is the city? Compared to GTA I mean. I don't feel excited for gta 6

im surprised you guys want to try the game after this season and not the first one where you actually have davids sandevistan
>>291800404The TTRPG has it measured with a EMPathy stat and Humanity. Cyberpsychosis is in a way dissociating from your own humanity to the extent you stop even thinking of people as anything of worth or value. So you just start killing them like they were ants on the floor of your apartment. Obviously this process also mindbreaks people as they go through it, losing themselves in the process.People like Adam Smasher just started out with 0 EMP and 0 humanity, so they can't go into cyberpsychosis since they were always there to begin with. People like David and Talia on the other hand have high EMP and high humanity, so they can take more chrome, at least for a while.
>>291801210
>>291801332The gameplay is piss easy, but the story is "you're dying soon" dogshit that doesn't fit the open world format at all.
>>291799980>This twelve year old acts way too mature and has too niche of a hobby to ever be believableFirst time?
Roman is right, Talia you are 15 button the fuck up
>>291801323That does not apply to Roman at all, he very clearly looks like a boy but a very cute one
>>291801360How do I become born with 0 emp and humanity?
>>291801210Bodied those doomtroons
*polish rap starts playing*
>>291801301Its really bad anon. The main gameplay loop is running around killing pockets of gangbangers for exp and loot. Its the only way to hit level 60 so you can do the true ending. The worse part is that the gangbangers are like MMO mobs. Theyre in groups of 3-5 and they're always facing away from you, you will literally have initiative over every fight and 2 will be dead before they start even thinking about returning fire and then the last guy is at half HP before he can shoot at you.The true ending is level gated, meaning you cannot deal enough damage at level 59 (I literally ran out of ammo at the start because I can't kill the basic mooks) but at 60 it becomes retard easy.Phantom liberty is decent, but the forced spooky section was so ass. Its annoying how you get one shot and you basically have to replace cyberpunk with a very scripted penumbra.Quests also scripted out the ass. all car chases are fake, traffic will always be scripted to interfere with you in the exact same way every time and the target will magically speed up when you get close without getting to the checkpoint where they're scripted to get out.Good things: Night city is beautiful, the crowds make the city feel alive (need a good rig or they evaporate)
I’d love to have Roman as a son, and as a responsible parent I would let Talia have her way with him
>>291801356>watch s1>wanted more of night city>finally started the game expecting to do quickhacks and blowing heads in slowmo>...>can't have cyberdeck and sandevistan at the same time
>>291801401Man, the 'side quest' minigames are so bad, like boxing or racing.

S1 and 2 are both real good in my opinion, but personally I prefer S2 because it has proper closure for the main cast. I get that S1's story was about the crew's lives cut short, but still.>>291800025My take is that he did care about Talia, but did a piss-poor job in the role of a father, behaving with the mindset he grew into while working in corporate - cold, impersonal, and talking to and about her more like an asset or a resource rather than his daughter.
>>291801407we know King
>>291801283She drank one of the many flavors of Night City Kool-Aid and thought D's power was enough to achieve her revenge against Arasaka.
>>291800446Its a digitized copy and the original gets deleted in the process.
>>291801256>Reaverswrong scifi show, those are from Firefly. Did you mean Raffen?
>>291801436the contra la luna part was so good, we needed stuff like that in the anime just pure combat sequences
>>291800920fibevpank edwvunnevs fivon foo
>sal is from a comicneat
>>291801425Redditors gas the game up as "engoodened" but I played it every step of the way. Barely anything was fixed outside of truly major humiliating bugs.The cops still materialize, the car chases are just events, the game balance actually got worse later on. Its such a shitty videogame.But its the only one where you can explore a cyberpunk city that feels genuinely authentic. Like its so fucking beautiful driving at night in the rain. Listening to the music in your car and watching the npcs walk around.The artists did their job, the programmers were retarded, the directors were retarded, the managers were retarded. You should absolutely not play it on your gameboy because a decently modern PC wont run it all that great if you want it to look good and be functional.
>>291801436the songbird route was so much better, glowniggers get the rope
>>291801434roman has game."you were perfect, always have been" made talia swoon
>>291801401People trying to say the game is "good now" really ignore that CP2077 is still at the end of the day GTA with some looter shooter arpg bits slapped on as well. It's a very confused game mechanically that snarls with the story of "you're slowly dying but don't worry. This won't actually stop you from doing literally everything in the game."
>>291801436The ghost in the shell spider boss """"""battle""""" was so fucking shitty dude. Its so fake and scripted you may as well not play it. It was basically Insomniac wolverine.
>>291800568While he was concerned, it's not like he's never seen that stuff in his life. He may be 12 but he's also a Night City resident whose film autism made him brave enough to go into fucking Maelstrom territory alone
>>291801401>The main gameplay loop is running around killing pockets of gangbangers for exp and lootThere's always some story element to them being there so I was never bored doing it.
>>291801471The whole "engoodening" is such a fucking meme. The game has fundamental problems that a quick patch or two won't fix, many of which are superfluous.Perhaps the biggest 'patch' is just additional mod support.
>S3 teaser.>7 years later>Lucy finds something weird in the MOONnet.>Its Capri
>>291801475Roman should be drowning in puss
>>291800025He might've been a loving father in her early days, but when she started getting chromed he moved more towards her being a test subject and distancing himself from her as a family member. Kids usually aren't allowed to get chromed, so her needing chrome to survive gave a unique opportunity to see how getting it young affects tolerance towards it- turns out, positively.
>>291801436>hide from a stupid robot that V should be able to destroy at this point vs having a shoot out with the US army in an airportthe betray Songbird section is so boring, the only thing good is the loot.
>>291801301i played it at 40 fps 720p back in 2022 because of the anime and loved it, thank god for netrunner because i couldn't aim for shit at that fps
You think Roman filmed any goatse stuff?
>>291801387Be built wrong and lean into it
>>291801487The entire first sequence with Myers in it as rotten ass. I had to take a breather to not just quit the game because of how fucking stupid it was and how badly written some of it was. I seriously think the writers thought they'd made Myers into a sympathetic or likeable character.
>>291801499Remember the factions and how you were told you'd be part of them. Lmao its just a quest, and even worse, you take a Padre quest and most the enemies you kill are valentinos because they're the mobs locally available. You go to kabuki, same thing, tiger eyes fixer, tiger eyes killing mission, tiger eyes MMO mobs to farm. Nobody gives a shit, finish all the quest from the fixer and you still kill the local gangs that the fixers supposed to represent.
>>291801517there's no evidence that he isn't

>>291801477>It's a very confused game mechanically that snarls with the story of "you're slowly dying but don't worry. This won't actually stop you from doing literally everything in the game."I hate this shit so much it's unreal, whoever came up with the whole "you're dying" shit should be fired. Nothing besides rushing the main quest realistically makes sense because you'd prioritize finding a way to survive over literally everything else.
>>291799667D is nuts
>>291800025Maybe she loved her as a daughter in a way, but that's the thing with corpo culture: to survive, they put their career above everything, and Talia was already dying so it was a quick decision.
>>291801546Can't even fucking climb walls.
>>291801558didn't like s2 but the char designs were amazing
>>291800568anon, its Night City. Theres groups that have lotteries with significant prizes if you can correctly guess how many people were killed yesterday. The concept of "sex sells" is turned up to 11, to the point that NC advertising is seen as weird and fucked up by everyone else in the world. Roman is 12 and got 24 cans of beer from the corner store. You adapt and get desensitized to life there or die before you hit 2 digits.
>>291799636damn I want to dig some holes you don't say
>>291801562>the moon explodesDamn, I hate when that happens.
>>291801477The day a company makes a REAL Cyberpunk CRPG I will kneel so hard my fucking knees explodeBut I feel like that will take a long time
>>291801581goat material really.
>>291801561this is like the only good song lmao, this and the trailer since they actually resemble a cyberpunk styleyou probably didn't play the game to realize how hard they fucked up the music
>>291801283Bitter and cynical just like me except im not a drunk loser im just a regular loser
>>291801448This image is pre 2.0, isn't it ?Johnny got a makeover since then
>>291801542Idris elba quest line is also fucked. I'm pretty sure I glitched out during the sniper mission and he got stuck, so I had to start over .Same for the Maxtac, the mantis blade cop was stuck in a permanent jump rope dodge animation and would not fight. When you finally kill him with grenades you cant open the fucking door because it doesnt count so you have to start the ambush over. Man fuck CDPR.
>>291801599That Prey game or the original Deus Ex is the closest you're going to get for either.
>It was so unbelievably shit. They watered down my Night City so bad and turned it into teletubby land. Never hiring these gooks againthe man has spoken
>>291801576Game has had like 1 major dlc and 2 anime updates and you still can't have the fucking drone they promised you on the trailer.
>>291801547Paizuri every morning
>>291800033Nah
>>291801616No, I mean a CRPG. Owlcat or (god forbid) Larian style, but for Cyberpunk [tm] Either version would be fine as well
>>291801599Unironically, the most cyberpunk you can get is the humble HBS shadowrun games. Holy shit it was so good and they managed to capture the look and feel of a dystopian future with just some humble isometric games who dont even have voice acting.
>>291801626the problem isn't that they sanitized it is that they never even show it, maelstorm being fucked up and the couple shooting that innocent car guy were the only true NC things
>>291801617NO
>>291801617
>>291800404It exists, and Cyberware can be a contributing factor based on how intense it is, but the root causes are the shitty living conditions of Night City, and the traumatic experiences associated with it.
>>291801626Source?
>>291801617AIEEEE
>>291800985Good because living in Night City fucking sucks
>>291801617FUCK
>>291801617>NO, my only weakness! Comically small nets!
>>291800985There is something wrong with your soul if you want to live in Night City.

>>291801773Friends with PTSD!
>>291801789you just hate cyberpunk aesthetics
>>291801773
>>291801616There... Right now, rather than Cyberpunk, I’d like to replay the old or even Human Revolution, but they are really old.
>>291801757you've never had any friends with huge tits that trust you enough to sleep in the same bed?
>>291801626That's the point; instead of looking like a theme park where cool people shoot each other and become legends, it's just a normal, shitty city. That is why it doesn't have a hold on to the protagonists, and they manage to escape its promises.
>>291801757Shut up, Lun4cy.
>>291801728why don't they at least give her a simple cosmetic piece of plastic to cover her missing jaw with?
>>291801616>og deus exunc alert
>>291799667sometimes you just gotta bitch out
In a world where everything is digitized and connected to the net, even seemingly purely analog stuff like arm blades, don't you think netrunners are overpowered compared to all other archetypes?

>>291801826>sits on my face>gorilla grips my dickim ngmi but worth
>>291801885Can she even? I'm surprised humans haven't gone extinct yet in the world of CP2030.
>>291801883Kinda, but not really, they still have limits. Capri let D go beyond those limits and he fucked shit up, but he can't do it without her.
>>291801883They aren't connected to the internet as we know it; after the crash, most technology became analog and disconnected. Even webpages run on small private servers; it's not like the web we have.
>>291801907>a bit better securityJust an incremental problem. Imagine a bit better netrunner.It's not conceptually proof from being hacked. Are there no analog chads specialized on taking down netrunner gods? But then again, you could just hack some random chromie to take out an analog who's after you.
Does Omi shave?
>>291801340Yes and she didnt give a shit
>>291800442kek
>>291801826What even is her job? UPS delivery lady?
Why could D hack Roman in the end? Roman only has Kiroshis.
>>291801971fluffy
>>291801883Intrusion Countermeasure Electronics, ICE, are equally advanced. If you try to hack the wrong guy, your head might just explode. People like Smasher just have automated counter-hacking systems that go out and kill anyone trying to hack him.>>291801943They ARE connected to the internet. The Blackwall protocol was created to enable the net to exist again, and is running in the background, constantly monitoring everything and stopping anything from the old net from breaking into the new one.
>>291801617RASTIS RASTIS
>>291801856Because it’s kinda normal to take off a part of your face in that setting. No one is shocked by it, so she has nothing to be ashamed of.
>>291801996Trucker, a bit larger scale and independent. Gorilla arms to carry fridges up stairs.
>>291801883>connected to the netits absolutely not the same internet we have now. its a bunch of fortresses isolated from eachother with specific entry points via people or devices that are part of that network. Imagine it like a bunch of oil platforms out on an ocean, sure you can swim to another platform but you'll absolutely get murdered by whatever is in the waters. Its much closer to that, but since the datakrash the isolated oil platforms have slowly been building bridges and and other methods of traveling between platforms so theres a bit more communication, but those are all monitored and tolled.

>>291801998He still has a neural interface, it's kind of necessary in the setting after all.
>>291800845I mean... for a given definition of "raise"
>>291801883It was more balanced in E3 2018 version of the game, you had to connect to the subnet first to start hacking people.
>>291802019> The Blackwall protocol was created to enable the net to exist again, and is running in the background.Not really; their internet is just local networks operated mostly by corporations. Their old net and its information are gone, behind the Blackwall and its not even a protocol, but an actual AI that other AIs seem to have helped in its creation.
So far theres 2 things guaranteed to be in spaceThe Big elite space station thing and Capricorn davidThink they'll do anything with it?
>>291802127I get that she's the equivalent of a punk-rock teen, but removing the mouth is just stupid. Just get a yakuza mask if you want to look like that.
>>291802019>The Blackwall protocol was created to enable the net to exist againThe Blackwall isn't a protocol even, it's a full blown AI itself.
>>291802159>Blackwall and its not even a protocol,There is specifically a Blackwall protocol, referred to in-game. >but an actual AI that other AIs seem to have helped in its creation.There is no reason why an AI couldn't also serve as a protocol, but the Blackwall is not just the singular AI. It's the entire system enabling internet usage from trusted, new net sources.
I'm watching episode 8 and I don't understand why D is acting shocked over being told something he was already told like 4 episodes ago?
>>291802202But then you don't get cool mandibles and have to chew Night City's "food" instead of sending it straight down your esophagus.
>>291802201D and Capri are super dead.
>>291802201There's also the moon.>think they'll do anything with it?Well if you played Phantom Liberty DLC (could be base game too, I can't remember) there is an ending that involves V going to the space station, it's a cutscene however. You don't play through it.So it is possible that the game devs might do something with the space station in Cyberpunk Orion. It's kind of guaranteed now since like 1 anon pointed out that both Capricorn and Orion are star constellations.If there ever is a season 3 of Edgerunners, they might do something with the space station too, but honestly it is too early to tell. The 2nd season just aired pretty much.
>>291802252You can have mantis-like mandibles integrated into the mask.
i kinda doubt we'll ever outright see these characters again, the most we might get is roman's kino showing up in orion
>>291801396OTWORZĘ CI SERCEEEEE
I think Yupi's arc would've been a lot stronger if she got randomly shot somewhere during the riots, probably even before it all started going to shit, and D mostly ignoring that the clingy fangirl who pooled everything to sponsor his campaign for the last month collapsed with half her head missing next to him. Just a quick glance down to not step into brain matter and go back to rioting.
>>291802380
>>291801886Maybe Execs get their own mandatory little side quests that will leave a lot of 'people' (if you can call non-shareholders that) unhappy , but you better do it if you don't want to be Corpo-SWATtedProbably similar with gangers just on a different scale
pleb here, why can't they put the subs into the PiP?
>>291801283Prolly corpos killed her dad
>>291802201There's also the colony in spaceHopefully they will, aliens are canon to Cyberpunk just like demons>>291802263They aren't, watch the anime
>>291800355>What are your thoughts on a protagonist like Roman?Needs to be properly raped and gaped
>>291802281Think the space station is base game, then in PL songbird goes to space. So capri and her could hang out
>>291802065Kiwi was an uncgonk Talia is a cyberzoomie, different fashions

>>291802734I know this is a joke, but seriously, what was this character all about? She is the most deliberately disgusting character on the show, absolutely the worst of the worst.

Just kept bruteforcing with the serums which ultimately led to gambling with his teammates lives.>Clearly has never contacted his oneitis after they had their fun as young adults, she's thin and colorful in the hallucinations. When you next meet the real her it's a fact she's turning into a hag mom, its natural. It's been yearsThis guy also is so much of a creep he SOMEHOW imprints? Engrave? The idea that he's a father to the womans daughter. Even if it was true they've been estranged for years. It would never work outAll of this is just his schizophrenic cope to not pull the trigger once he loses everything. He's basically living for Talia at this point. Even if they were father and daughter(they're not its confirmed) it's just very pathetic and sad the whole ordeal.Johnny silverhand is cringe too but someone like Weak is far far worse, the only reason this worked is because faggots wouldn't stop crying about how S1 mindraped every weakling like Emergence by Shindol
>>291803637Calm down Miguel
King was the "weakest" part of the show, but my issue with him wasn’t so much that he was in a pathetic state; rather, it was the blatant way he was being exploited by his ex, who turns out to be another despicable character. Every time I saw him accept such clearly absurd situations, I felt pity for him.
