If Cyberpunk 2077 sells exceptionally well, can we expect more cyberpunk-themed games to be made?
>>338363728
I'm actually expecting cyberpunk to become more popular for some reason very soon. It's more of an untouched type of theme
>I'm actually expecting cyberpunk to become more popular for some reason very soon
>can we expect more cyberpunk-themed games to be made
The next decade will be the cyberpunk decade no matter if C77 sells good or not. Blade Runner 2, Douche Ex, Ghost in the Shell and many other media.
>>338365076
>Blade Runner 2
an unnecessary sequel to a classic film. It's going to be Prometheus all over again.
>Ghost in the Shell
Director's only other major film was Snow White and the Huntsman.
Producers previous credits include "Ghost Rider" and "Baby Geniuses and the Space Baby."
Both Writers are newbs
>Deus Ex
Personally I haven't liked what I've seen or heard, but it hasn't been much so I can't really comment
Just from your short list it looks more like cyberpunk will have it rough for the next few years.
>>338365076
>Blade Runner 2
You must be joking
No
N-no
They ruined literally every old franchise they could
Why can't they let the classics sleep the good sleep
>>338366912
>Back To The Future 4
>Citizen Kane 2: Rosebud With A Vengeance
>Gone With The Wind Part Deux
>Honey I Shrunk The Gay Rights Activists
>Blade Runner 2
>>338367197
>Citizen Kane 2: Rosebud With A Vengeance
Holy shit, anon.
>>338364319
The overwhelming popularity of Neo-80s is going to be what caused it, and not CDPR.
Add to that the fact that the next Shadowrun, Deus Ex Mankind Divided and the next Blade Runner film are all coming within the next year and a half and the stage for a new trend is set.
>>338367514
>next shadowrun
Is it going to suck as much dicks as Hong Kong or can we expect a good game?
>>338366796
I think its more likely we will see a resurgence of space opera/star wars games with the next decade having a new star wars film coming out every year (not to mention the third star trek sequel and the eventual fourth).
Another cyberpunk film (sorta) coming out is "Ready Player One." I don't know how to feel about it as I thought the book was insufferable, but Spielberg is directing and Amblin Entertainment are an experienced production company, the main writer only has a few credits though.
>>338367449
Cyberpunk is overrated. Unless there's ever an open world gta-like akira game, I don't care about them

Thoughts?
>friendly drone plays literal keygen chiptunes
>mfw
Back it, niggers. I need this game too badly to watch it die.

>>338363728
It wont but I'm hopeful about cyberpunk anyway.
Please god let system shock 3 be good. Please just let those motherfuckers luck out hard and make an incredible game.
>>338369019
Spector still has it in him, right? Right?
Please let it be. And I don't even like System Shock.
>>338368141
Yesm you made me reverse image search.
It was great.
>>338369078
You don't like the first game or you don't like the franchise?
H..he's got to have it in him. One last hurrah.
>>338369217
The franchise. Something about it just doesn't click for me. I actually enjoyed my time with the first game a lot more than I did with the second. But it doesn't matter, we need games like these to return and be good.
>tfw I've been obsessed with cyberpunk for 10+ years
>tfw when it's finally coming back
I hope for great things.come to lainchan cyberbros
>>338363728
Anyone have that pic that detailed the different classes available to play? I remember seeing it a while back
>tfw going to go full Road Warrior on that vidya after seeing it as a potential class.
>>338366912
Do classics dream of the good old times?
>>338369359
Isn't that /g/'s sekrit hideout where they fight the power?
>>338369359
Same, always loved the setting, Johnny Mnemonic was probably the first thing that got me into cyberpunk.
>>338369359
Muh nigger.
It's finally here. The age of cyberpunk. Imagine; A cyberpunk game figures out how to make VR viable for actual games and becomes the system seller.
Hnnnngh.
>>338369359
>>338363728
No. Witcher sold exceptionally well and we haven't seen more RPGs with strong male leads made.
>>338363728
It just won't live to the hype, it's the same as the MN9 argument, they have been hyped for so long that there is no way that they are going to deliver something good enough to make up for it
If anything, i think apart from the artstyle, i expect this game to play like Remember Me
>inb4 what game
I'm surprised no one drew any parallels to that game
>>338369478
Why don't you join in and find out dreg?
>>338369520
Johnny Mnemonic is amazing. Have you dived into any Cyberpunk novels? Don't sleep on Snow Crash.
>>338369573
You're describing my dream anon. I think in the next 10 years we'll be there.
>>338369683
>strong male leads
it's 2016, come on
>>338369995
I'm serious, it's all jRPG fuckboys or blank template open-world bullshit.
>>338369989
I've read Johnny Mnemonic novel and Neuromancer, snowcrash is sitting on my phone but i forgot how to read books, it's all about lazy content like movies and vidya these days
>>338363728
I hope so because only a AAA cyberpunk game would have the budget needed to make the game I want. Maybe CDPR will learn how to make combat interesting
>>338370118
Snow crash is highly enjoyable.
I've read a lot of cyberpunk and I hated neuromancer. Reading it was like reading the words of a man on drugs describing characters who were also on drugs. In the first person.
Unbearable.
>>338370695
Shit taste friend
>>338370695
It was a long time ago, i only remember Gibson's habit to mention brands and describe environments in detail, kinda enjoyed this aspect. Don't even remember the story
>>338370891
I'm OK with that.
The author writes incomprehensibly. To the point you can't comprehend where the character is or how he got there.
>>338371043
Never got anywhere close to finishing it. Early on his writing became so disjointed I re-read the same few pages trying to decipher what was happening.
>>338371043
That pretty much sums up my experience with it too. The world he crafted was amazing... the story not so much.
>>338371250
I liked some of the characters. Wintermute and Armitage were great. Neuromancer on the other hand can suck a cock.
>>338371250
>pick up Gibson's Pattern Recognition (which I'm aware is not cyberpunk)
>read first 20 pages
>it's about artsy grill surrounded by brands
>brands this brands that of that brand of brand
>put it on a shelf and never open again
>>338366912
It gets better:
>Female protagonist.
>Deckard confirmed as a side character who appears at the end of the film.
>Film opens in rural middle america on a farm.
If you thought Prometheus was a travesty that totally missed the point of the originals, you ain't seen nothing yet.
>>338363728
I just want an actual, proper GITS: SAC game. It would basically play like Rainbow Six: Deus Ex. I just want to cloak, raid a building, and have Run Rabbit Junk blaring while I do it.
It could be like a class based team objective shooter. Motoko, Batou, Saito, Togusa, Paz, and Borma could be playable Section 9 for each mission, which would be a different kind of raid on a building full of enhanced terrorists, possibly with hostages, possibly trying to crack a safe, do a cyberbrain transfer, traffic girls, steal organs, ect. Cyberpunk crimes. The guy playing Ishikawa would essentially be looking at every camera in the building and an over head map of each floor issuing callouts, or he could just be the ever present AI doing the same shit as the players mark enemies. Saito would be technically outside the level, and be able to transition from perch to perch for a better view, or go in with the team depending on the role he picks before the match starts.
Each member would have different abilities and a different weapon loadout, with different roles in a meta sense. The opposing team or AI would be different glasses and grades of GITS enemies, from regular joes to Marines in fucking Armed suits, to full combat military cyborgs like Kuze.
DLC could include WWIII missions and Batou's time in the Rangers. Collector's edition comes with a little Tachikoma.
>>338371829
please be lying.
>>338371829
Well.
I won't watch it.
I won't enter threads about it.
If I see a trailer playing I'll turn my head away.
Problem solved.
>>338371829
Prometheus couldn't "miss the point of originals" because it wasn't an Alien movie, but it was great film on it's own.
>>338363728
what makes cyberpunk so sexyredownloading Neuromancer right now my dudes
>>338372015
All confirmed from the mouth of Scott himself. The only ray of light is that he dropped off direction and Denis Villeneuve (sicaro, prisoners) signed up, but Scott is still writing and producing, so it's a dim ray.
>>338372265
>it wasn't an Alien movie
It was originally an alien movie before the rewrites by scott and lindof.
>it was great film on it's own.
You're one of those people, huh?
>>338371829
>>Film opens in rural middle america on a farm.
Hey, that's from the original Blade Runner script. Neat.
>>338372380We're living it
>>338369324
We just need games to return, m8.
>>338372998
Anon in tokyo here. I'm not living in it. You faggots in suburban Nowhereia, Burgerstan sure as fuck aren't.
>>338372998
Except for the smoking.
But yeah, this is finally the decade where computing "broke through into the real world."
Look at Uber. You tap a button on your phone, you're given a GPS marker showing you the car coming to your location in real time. The entire thing is unregulatable and every government and union in the world hates it, but it just keeps growing anyway.
>>338373489
Japan stopped living in the future 20 years ago dipshit. They've been suspended in the past for a long time now, surrounded by flip phones and floppy disks.
>>338373701
Also fax machines.
>>338373701
Been living here for a year. Everyone has iphones, seen one floppy disk and the person holding it had to use a USB reader since no computers have floppy drives.
The fax thing is legit though.
>>338372449
>You're one of those people, huh?
Woah, easy there taste police. I'll go further and say i equally like alien(s) and Prometheus. Luckily Alien 3 never happened.
>>338366796
you are an unconscionable prick
>>338363728
Cyberpunk has been on the return for a while, I think.
It's sad that cyberpunk has always been shit
I don't understand how anyone could ever think it would be good
>>338376895
It's sad that <something I don't like> has always been shit
I don't understand how anyone could ever think it would be good
I just want more people to play Neotokyo
>>338376895
Cyberpunk has shitton of potential, it's just nothing really outstanding came out of it so far. I blame the relatively uneventful past three decades. If the genre popped up during the commie era Eastern Yurop, you can bet your ass someone would have made something good with it. As is, people simply don't feel the shit they are writing about, so it all ends up shallow and superficial. We have the style, but not the substance.
>>338377178
>genre
it's a setting
>>338377334
It's a little of both, actually. Cyberpunk is definitely it's own brand of fiction. It's a genre/setting in the same vein as the old west.
>>338363728
>not realizing we live in the new cyberpunk golden age right now
-> cyberpunk 2077
-> system shock 3/remake
-> deus ex: md
-> blade runner 2
-> GiTS movie with scarjo
-> altered carbon netflix series
-> motherfucking RUINER
seriously not even talking about all the good stuff that's already out like the shadowrun games and satellite reign
how can you not be excited about that shit?
>>338368786
This looks like it'll be a shitload of fun to be honest.
>>338378270
Because we know everything you just listed will be shallow cash-grab AAA shit that will taint good licenses forever
>>338378270
>altered carbon netflix series
Oh shit, sweet
>>338378416
Yeah look breddy gud.
>>338378530
Well aren't you a bitter faggot.
>>338369359
>come to lainchan cyberbros

do you have good memes there?
>>338369078
it will be good
the remake also looks fantastic so far
>>338368786
my nigga
>>338366912
blade runner 2 will be good
>ryan gosling
>the directot that made prisoners, enemy and sicario
>based roger deakins as dp
>>338379787
Just look at the last time modern industry picked up old and cherished licenses, and see what happened
>>338381031
You just saw gits and bladerunner listed and immediately felt the need to be bitter about it
dude sex is guaranteed to be good, system shock remake at least looks good, ruiner is a new ip it can't "taint good licenses forever"
2077 is too far in the future to even be a thing, but taking witcher into account it just have to be good.
whatever
>>338363728
We need Neocron 3!!!
>>338381545
The list could also be a lot longer than that, those are mostly just the biggest upcoming releases. Of course those are also the ones mostly playing it safe with established IPs.
