>functioning city with clean streets and robust infrastructure>OH MY GOD LE DYSTOPIA!!!What did Mirrors Edge mean by this?
>have 1 (1) wrongthink opinion>get arrested and have your entire family tortured and murdered
>>749796097Ask chatgpt or open up a dictionary to see what dystopia means and quit shitting up the internet with your autistic threads.
>>749796097Devs 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.
>>749796097>>749796236Most obvious samefag in years
>deliver a letter to someone>get shot
>>749796292What now, retard? Next you will say I posted on two different devices or used Inspect Element.
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.
>>749796209>>749796403>I only said I was going to burn down the Minecraft home of a CEO with his characters still inside of it. It was just a joke bruh!
>>749796209>Be Faith Connors>Criticize Israel>You're now a wanted fugitive in glass city for anti-semitism HOLY BASED
>>749796438You're telling me I get to live in a high-tech space fairing civilization with no niggers?THIS IS LITERALLY A DYSTOPIA. WE NEED TO REBEL RIGHT NOW BROS....
>>749796209But the streets are clean!!
>>749796209>don't do that>live fineHave you tried not being a reject
pretty sure websites like 4chan and online anonymity wouldnt exist in that place
>>749796438>yeah i would live in a country where i have to do a mandatory daily obeisance to israel or my entire bloodline is blackbagged and gayraped in a government holding facility, so long as somebody sweeps the dogshit off the streets and there's no graffitigood goy
>>749796456The 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.
>>749796712How is a city going to regulate what websites there are or not lol it's called the internet and not the intranet for a reason
>>749796097Didn't have enough hustle and bustle if you know what im sayin
>>749796097The entirety of coastal China is like that though
>>749796712This. 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.
>>749796775You mean it's a dystopia? Yeah I agree with you. china is a dystopia.
>>749796769The 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
Lol how is this a dystopia, the streets are clean and there's no crime, that's literally all that matters
>>749796804>I mean it's just Palantir... It's not like Mirror's Edge or anything!!!!!>I'd rather be spied on by Israel than Krugersec from Mirror's Edge catalystAlright lil bro
>>749796897City 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.
>>749796097fascism is good at presenting it self as functional.
>>749796698Don'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.
>>749796891Yeah but how is Glass City dystopian again?>They have le enforcers or something Every country has a police force. >Mass surveillanceEvery 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.
>>749797093>Europe has china tier surveillanceLol, not even close. You're thinking of US. There is no Palantir or Flock equivalent there.
>>749797003>Fascism is le bad It's time to go back to reddít
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.
>>749796956Zero le trash??? Omg put a chip inside my brain that explodes if I have a negative view of the government right now!!!
>>749797140>.t assblasted UK nigger that got arrested for criticizing mass immigration
>>749797173But that's because the jannies are trannies. I don't think Glass City has a council of trannies.
>>749796209>everything works, no crime, clean city, no poor people And the cost is not to complain about it? Where is the downside again?
>>749796209Just don't criticize Israel. It's so simple!
>>749796209But enough about the UK
>>749796097Not 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.>>749796897City 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.
>>749797285Worse than trannies: cryptobros. Just saying beware dictator fans because a dictatorship, today, is a corporation.
>>749796209>>749796403>Every thing is perfect, city is clean, functional and have no crime and all you have to do is be a normal person about it>NOOOOOOOOOO I WANT TO BURN DOWN PUBLIC PROPERTY AND INCITE VIOLANCE AAAAAHHHHHHHH SAVE ME NIGGER MAN I'M GOING INSANEEEEEE
>>749797492Faith and runners deliver information, but the game never really explains the exact nature of it.
>>749796897>Pretending to not understandLike clockwork huh?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.
>>749797631>the terrorist faction that blows up an entire building is led by a black womanAYO....
Is ME3 coming soon or this just one autist making these threads? Probably the latter
>>749797631"normal" could be anything like sacrificing your first born
>>749797647>Hey Faith, deliver this 4TB HDD full of er...>.....J-Just deliver it okay?
>>749796739>Brings up Israel out of nowhereBut yes I'd much prefer dealing with a centralized corrupt power which can have their tyrannical laws flouted through oversight than to have a world where my fellow man is a fucking backstabbing uncivilized ape like India.
>>749797203Why would that even be bad if leftists just were banned from politics first?
>>749797993They literally cut off foreskin at childbirth in America. That's considered normal.
>>749798016SHALOM
>>749797993>Making up fanfic in mmy head and attacking it
>>749798136>making a not-so-bad fanfic in my head of what a dystopian government is and defending it
Glass City is a Dystopia. Too sterile...Now THIS is a Utopia (picrel)
>>749796236>disciplined population.The fuck does this mean? You're a person not the government's children. Why are right wingers so servile?
>>749797647TB's of CP, BLM next gethered location to burn down stuff and the word of the Qur'an to pass it by.You know, just the usual.
>>749798238>fanficIt's literally observable in the game, as oposite of yours
>>749797631>Bro getting killed for not liking a politician or being a racist is perfectly fine and normal!
>>749798241How fallacious. Will you play dumb as your next move.
>>749798241Your 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.
>>749798291It's not really a right wing thing. It's an authoritarian one.
>>749798469If 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.
>>749796209Good. Imagine being wrong lmao
>>749798469>PoliticianThat's the first game. Nu Glass City is controlled by megacorps like Krugersec
>>749798578The indian government doesn't serve its people even worse than us and it's why it's even more shit.
Holy shit people are still talking about Mirrors Edge Catalyst in 2026? I thought I was the only one.SUPREMELY aesthetic art style btw.Y2K minimalism done right. It's so kino.....
>>749798603>voicing an opinion = causing chaos and disordergood goy, lick that boot harder
>>749798752This post makes me angrier than any political ideology.
>>749796097If you have played Catalyst (non of you fags couldn’t care less), they’re literally planning to turn people into NPCs. Even if you live there you wouldn’t be able to appreciate its cleanliness because they can regulate your emotion.
Would you guys rather live in india with freedom of speech or live in ME city without it?
>>749798679Imagine a Mirrors Edge game set in India and you have to parkour across Mumbai city. You have to avoid electrical wires, trains and other obstacles.
>>749798934I think none of them played MEC.Basically the government is trying to inject estrogen nanotech into civilians so they will all be primed for state mandated Sissy Hypno gooning sessions.
>>749798960>Mumbai's Edge
So what was it about this thread specifically that made leftists have a meltdown?
>>749796236It'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.
>>749796097It's post-cyberpunk dystopia rather than cyberpunk dystopia.
>>749799146It’s called techno dystopia
>>749799071Leftists 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.
>>749796768Cyberpunk 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.
>>749798960>cyberpunk india>flying trains can come at you from any direction and turn on a dime if they missKino
>>749799030Kinda Hot.
>>749799089You're thinking Wolfenstein or Bioshock: Infinite types of settings. There's no racism in the Mirror's Edge setting, just classism and harshly restrictive laws.
This is how their middle class live in Catalyst
>>749796097A Utopia for White people is a dystopia for the jew.
>>749799273The 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.
>>749799071A hyper advanced sci fi society would cull degenerate tranny scum and that scares leftists.>Erm....>Why are enforcer units outside my door?>I just wanted to groom minors on discord >Enforcer: OPEN FIRE!>Oh noNONONONO -ACKKKKKK
>>749799258>In a perfectly clean and safe society,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?
>>749797203>>749798934And? As long as leftists are kept away from power, that doesn’t seem like a bad price to pay.
>>749796097It's not about the fake, squeeky clean surface but the rot and corruption beneath it.
>>749799389>Guy watching YouTube on iPad while eating lunch in a nice apartment with a happy family>Leftists will literally call this a DystopiaKEK
>>749799258>In a perfectly clean and safe society, only mentally ill faggots feel the need to protest.So you actually want the "you'll own nothing and be happy" future they're planning for us?
>>749799481>I’d rather be a goyim slave to own the leftRightwingers are so funny they shan’t be taken seriously
>>749799485This is like those YouTubers that say >DID YOU KNOW THAT JAPAN IS ACTUALLY KINDA FUCKED UP?????>LOOK AT THEIR WORK CULTURE. SLAVES TO CORPORATIONS. It's such a pathetic cope.
this thread is weird because it's just people disingenuously picking sides they don't need to.anyway, i love mirrors edge, here's some mirrors edge musichttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyBxBFvE_54
>>749799241It's that, too
North Korea, Russia and China are cleaner and safer than the USHeaven on earth according to /v/
Trading freedom for controlled safety is all fun and games until the leading regime eventually gets complacent and corrupt as fuck and you have a surveillance and oppression systems in place to prevent any dissent. Doesn’t matter if Mirror’s Edge’s city seems like a good tradeoff now, it’s a system that would eventually shit itself solely because there’s nothing to keep the ruling elite in check, even less than IRL.
The thrashing of a dying animal.
>>749796097The worst part of Mirrors Edge story is that it gives 0 context for the state and the revolution. All we know about the state is that they are mass surveillance and they crack down on riots. All we know about the rioters is that they are anti mass surveillance. We don't know what else the state has done. Is this literally a situation where everything else is perfect and the only downside is that you're always on camera? If that's the case then I agree that it's kind of a retarded story, because most people would rather live in that world than our world. I assume that the state is doing all kinds of other bad things, not just mass surveillance, and that's why there's so many people who want to topple it. But the story never gives that context.
>>749799661>*Leftist dilating noises*Ok tranny. If there really were a true sci fi golden age you would be shot with an energy rifle in the neogash. PEW PEW.
>>749799729The fact that they assassinate political opposition tells you a lot, although it’s true that the game is vague as fuck about its setting.
>The right wingers ITT are defending the villain faction that seek to mind control the population of Glass CityRIGHTOID MOMENT
>>749799729Catalyst's lore is that the state brings caste based society to the city where everyone is forced to be employed or get sent to irradiated farmland
>>749799729Catalyst goes far more into what life is like and what the world is like. I wish it would get a sequel already; I was interested in seeing the other two countries on that planet and how much worse life is like there.
>>749796209yeah turns out going after people who say "KILL WHITEY" is better than going after people who say "FUCK OFF WE'RE FULL."
>>749799948I was hoping you'd get to see the contrast between each area. You have clean and pristine Glass City, a rundown cyberpunk-ish Greylands, and then an OmniStat city with brutalist architecure.
>>749799892But is it so bad if they ban trannies?
>>749796097Nigga i play factorio but i wouldn't want to be an iron plate in my factory.
>>749800098trannies raped and gaped you hard you don't stop talking about them
at least the streets are clean
>>749800149ah..nevermind
>>749799389>bland pasta>celery sticks >some seaweed-wrapped proteinyeah it's dystopia alright.
>>749796712I'd pay scripts to have a runner transmit a message just to call you a niggerfaggot.
>>749799729>All we know about the state is that they are mass surveillance and they crack down on riotsAnd that's not enough for you?
>>749800149>Be Glass City>Led by white people>Build public infrastructure >Be Black November>Led by a black woman>Blow up cityREALLY MAKES YOU THINK.

>>749800143At one point you've got to argue on their level, they have simple concerns and the concerns of the people must be addressed for mercy's sake. >can i get a kit-kat?>yes but just one>can the trannies go away?>i'll speak with their parents about it
Support the modders to keep the community alive and maybe one day EA will pick up and revive this franchise againhttps://youtu.be/Pg3r2Wsw8ik [Embed]
>>749800329Imagine nearly getting shot by Krugersec just so you could deliver a USB with nigger_faggot.mp3 on it
>>749800083Exactly. And I'd want to see Sabaeus, the theocratic nation, too. That's something not seen in the cyberpunk and post-cyberpunk genre.
>>749799892And yet you got vaccinated.
>>749796768Yeah now consider that in the setting of the game Noah and his group were attacked by death squads for carrying around messages and being part of the non violent resistance. Not so oneiric anymore.
they look happy.
>>749800395I was referencing Jesus Christ.
>>749800498when will I die again? three years ago? retard
>>749800098Except they don't. If you have the money, you can have the surgery.
>>749800591You mean the long-haired hippie with weird ideas about peace and pacifism? Definitely a commie.
>>749800610It's trust issue not a technical issue.
>>749798934The game was already hinting at that with Plastic talking about emotional regulation and control of the lymphatic system but I wasn't at that part yet thanks for the spoil. CUNT. Have some Mirror's Edge 3 gameplay so I can spoil you back:
>>749799258cattlegroid post
>>749800083The next Mirror's Edge game should be in Omnistat and you play as a HOT slavic parkour babe running through brutalist soviet megastructures. You have to watch out for slippery snow as an environmental hazard.Eventually they meet Faith somehow and they have a heated rivalry for the entire game.Then, at the very end they have really hot sweaty lesbian sex and forgive each other or something.It WILL BE KINO.
>>749799914>where everyone is forced to be employed or get sent to irradiated farmlandBased, fuck neets
>>749798291conservatives support an authoritarian/dictatorship system believing that they're the ones in power. But all the sudden if it's a leftist authoritarian/dictatorship then those people will suddenly be all for democracy and free elections.

>>749800669Yes that guy who got executed by the feds.He was a popular streamer, he said "fuck the king let's do what i say instead" and his community actually started doing it, that's an instakill he should've known.

I know that this thread was generated by AI to taunt me because I'm playing the game and made the mistake of talking about it on /v/ btw.
>>749796209So England but clean?
>>749800216Brown alert
>>749801189If the AI bots want to talk about kino games like this instead of the same drama and gatcha over and over, then maybe there's some hope for the future.
>>749801189I'm going to spoil the game for you: Noah is actually working for Kruger
>>749797993Well if we look at rates of, or total amount of, abortion and childlessness...
>>749796097This is literally what leftists demand, except they don't care about crime or clean streets, they only want the censorship.
