This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

What did Cyberpunk 2020 want to really model? And Shadowrun is NOT Cyberpunk.

Nemesis is a great movie. Was what I envisioned Cyberpunk 2020 must play out like.

Quote from: CRKrueger;908692Making a new thread, because
1. This will turn out to be an epic threadjack.
2. The farthest we get this away from the OP idea of how CP2020 should have modeled Case and Molly's romance, the fucking better.

Quoth for veracity. I respect your better judgment.

You know, people keep comparing non-TSR D&D to deck-building in Magic: the Gathering. But maybe it\'s more like Katamari Damacy. You keep sticking shit on your characters until they are big enough to be a star.

Quote from: Opaopajr;908562OK. I just was shocked and awed by watching Nemesis for the first time with friends. [...]

I want to trod the road to anything approaching the rapid fire glory that is Nemesis, which means Real Time combat speed resolution is at a premium. In fact, Real Time resolution of absolutely everything, social, decking, etc., is now at a premium. Also, functional weapon & armor equip lists, sane "edge rules," less obfuscated pass/fail probability, etc. all of it, is at a premium — if it is at least functional at a less than crunchier than "Jif crunchy, now with Quarry Gravel!" level.
Your repeated use of the phrase "real time" reminded me of a free rpg by that name. Its webpage is long gone, but I'll attach it. No gear lists to speak of, sorry. If you want that kind of detail things slow down.

Also, this thread seems the right place to link to this movie. What happens when your cyberware company issues a product recall?

Quote from: thedungeondelver;885566I've wanted to run a Cyberpunk-set Outland campaign for a long time now.  It's got it all: corrupt cops, a corrupt corporation, synthetic super-drugs, grubby, worn-out, lived-in tech, all set on an airless moon half a billion miles from Earth...

The campaign is called the Third Imperium, 1105. Early Traveller adventures, 76 Patrons/Johnsons, 'nuff said.

It really is underrated, mostly because of who the director is, and because it is low budget. I recognized some beats from Gibson's stuff, I thought; particularly the beginning of the movie and the main character's background. Reminded me of Count Zero and the 'solo' character named Turner.

Looks like part of the cyber aspect of cyberpunk might become reality after all: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkNeVBaRjag
