>>730602949
Mainstream consumer tech stuff did regress due to the economy imploding. Kinda like it is now with electronic hardware (they're literally bringing back the RTX 3060 lol). They do have nano machines in 2052 but only for the corporate rich and their glowie agents. If you're poor you're fucked. Nano's don't look as cool robot arms but they're way more advanced.

All power derives from one thing and one thing only, an ability from physical violence.

a lot of the cyberpunk-setting stories get a lot right, but it's still fiction so you have to make it cool for people to latch onto it. america is a completely despicable and openly corrupt country that is ran in a way that intentionally alienates ensouled humans and rewards those who lie, cheat, and steal

Unless of course the elites saw that people were expecting a cool but grim future and pivoted to a gay and lame future to throw us off.

I remember being a kid and thinking about the year 2020 sounding so far into the future that we'd have flying cars and shit. Now it's 2026 and the only things that have changed are things that changed for the worse and regressed. Tech, life expectancy. The only things going up are the suicide rates

My mom and youngest sister were sick during the time this game was being made. They both died before the game came out. My Lil sis got to see the first couple trailers for this game and it helped her.

It's literally 100% Square Enix's fault. And worse: They have gone and done the same to other games (Just Cause) and are equally baffled that they bomb.

They did the same fucking shit to FF16. This company is a literal joke, they can't help themselves. Japan is doomed until this company goes under.

because breakthrough technology favors function over aesthetic
phones were not designed to be nice to look at, they were designed to function, once the technology is effectively 'solved' and homogenized, the only thing to change is the aesthetic.

Operating Systems? 20 years ago they were solved. We only change the layout. Smartphones? They've been done for the last decade, the only changes are making them bigger/smaller. Video games? Graphics and technology hasnt advanced in 15-20 years.

Problem is that even if someone bought this IP, nowdays chances are very low its gonna be good.

It takes a very specific set of character to make the game about spy/special agent stuff but also mix the conspiracy in it. The reason why is because its important to understand irl conspiracy and be able to add it in a fashion that would make a player think it through himself and maybe even apply it irl. Yes Deus ex is not rooted in reality, howewer the idea was always that government is the one covering everything, deep state exists, the information is controlled and there is a confrontation between the general public and the elites. For example Remedy does make some interesting mystic type games that have a modern reality mixed in, but its not the same as conspiracy. Io made hitman to have a certain shadow organization idea with conspiracy parts, but its more about their own original worldbuilding and doesnt really try to imply anything for irl, now they are making a 007 game, which is gonna be a full send regular special agent routine. Cyberpunk had its moments with River, Peralez quests, some main missions and dlc too, but its all very "in world" story made for the game and doesnt really have anything special to offer outside of it, in addition to a pretty weak closure of the main story. Splinter cell is dead, Tom Clancy is dead. Kojima is making a new game it seems, but he cares more about storytelling and his own narratives rather than the global ones.

The time right now is pretty weird that the actuall deep state theories are not very compelling due to the fact that governments are pretty clear about the shady shit they do and how they operate. Somehow there is more stigma about conspiracy theories right now rather than before. An unknown studio with lots of time and some specific background might try it. But as i said due to the specifics of our irl timeline it very unlikely there are creators like that left in the industry.
