Reminder that William Gibson's twitter is full of drumpfposting.

>>15464494

Who?

>>15464512

I was about to say this! Have we even seen night time in this game?

>>15464512

You cannot have a proper Cyberpunk game without good atmosphere you fucking retard.

>>15464512

t. Cyberpunk shill

What other discussion is there to even be had about this game if it doesn't look anything like a fucking cyberpunk game and we have nothing else to go off of?

The gunplay looks like bland trash, the dialogue is also bland trash, the world looks grossly uninspired

After the witcher 3 I'm completely disaffected with CP2077. The moment it was announced I was very excited, even went as far as to try and get the neotokyo composer working on it to help give it a marvelous sound signature, I thought it was a great opportunity and even introduced ed to their sound director. Game looks like utter shit.

>>15464529

There's nothing wrong with the atmosphere though

>people are actually mad the game has a day/night cycle

>cyberpunk = darkness and neon

Just buy a neon light, and close your curtains, if that's what you want so bad.

>>15464545

Epic post, maybe tell me why its bad

>>15464539

Nothing interesting ever happens in the daytime in a Cyberpunk game.

You should be spending your time inside buildings or sleeping during any sort of daytime to go past it

This is like expecting a bright, sunny level or very bright lighting in a horror game, its generally a very fucking retarded idea and anyone with a brain knows it

Why the fuck is the thread anchored?

>>15464570

I always get banned here and my threads anchored or deleted

The one part I actually care about is the gameplay and I wasn't impressed in the slightest.

Will someone please get it in their stupid mind that ironsight FPS shooting is not fun in the slightest?

>>15464560

Just make it rainy forever during the day. Imagine that, push the technology of advanced rain, overcast and fog effects. Make a bullshit in-universe explanation about pollution or something.

>>15464573

What a load of horseshit, theres no other cyberpunk threads anywhere.

>>15464570

because it's a shitty low effort clickbait fag thread?

>>15464549

Nigger

The levels design is generic and uninspired as shit, the sun makes everything look washed out and too bright, and it looks like a shittier version of NYC rather than an actual Cyberpunk miserable massive shithole. Even with night-time it would still look generic as fuck and not impressive or atmospheric at all. With all the footage we'be been presented to far, I'm disappointed.

>>15464560

>Nothing interesting ever happens in the daytime in a Cyberpunk game.

There aren't many examples to call on, but depending on how you define Cyberpunk, you could mention Mirror's Edge, or Beneath a Steel Sky, and then there's like half of Ghost in the Shell and Akira.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre is one of the most atmospheric horror movies, and takes place largely in the bright sunlight of a Texas summer.

There's nothing wrong with daytime in cyberpunk. What IS wrong is a lack of constant rain (acidic if you're up for it), a Silent Hill-esque layer of smog over everything, and skyscrapers that would block out the sun even if it were somehow a nice day.

The guy sure went at length about how upset he was about degeneracy in a cyberpunk game. There was a bit of truth in his rant:

The main character doesn't seem like a created character at all. The bitch has all this forced "character development" that is completely independent of your actions. The choices are nonexistant, ineffectual or completely incongruent with what the character actually says when you pick them. The fact that the demo forces you into one night stands, mercenary work or even getting augmented is a bad omen.

What if you want to play a pure, non augmented crusader who is deeply against body modification? What if you don't wanna bang this gross mexican? What if you don't wanna bang at all? Where is the role playing at?

>>15464643

Why?

"Play at night. This goes hand in hand with a dark future. Sunshine and Cyber-punk don't mix. Even if the characters are in Bermuda, never play during the day unless the weather is cloudy, drizzly and generally miserable. Avoid playing Cyberpunk on nice days-it's distracting, and besides, don't you have better things to do?"

"And it always rains. Every day should be grim, gloomy and overcast. The stars never come out. The sun never shines. There are no singing birds, no laughing children. (The last bird died in 2008 and the kids are grown in vats.) The ozone layer decayed, the greenhouse effect took over, the sky is full of hydrocarbons and the ocean full of sludge."

"I can tell you exactly what Night City looks like in daylight, since I created it’s weather. On dry days, the sky is a orangey red, thanks to the tons of particulates suspended in the air. Kind of like what Seattle has looked like the past five days. Toxic rain days (rarer now) the sky is a blinding, whitish grey suffused with a stinging mist. Kind of what Seattle looks like normally."

"It's rainy wet streets, it's nights like this with fog rolling in, cars and faceless people going by doing things that they're doing, there's something kind of hypnotic about it. That's how i get inspired. To carry what these streets are like, what the city is like, the mysteries, the stories, the 1000's and 1000's of people that you pass going by as shadows going by in this wet, cold, dangerous environment."

>I didn't know you worked at CDPR anon

you don't need to work there, level design can be observed.

>Isnt that the point? To make everything look like complete shit.

>it's supposed to look awful and clash with the setting

>New York is already dystopian so nothing wrong there

retard

>I would disagree, but you define the cyberpunk aesthetic differently from me

cyberunk also defines itself different than you do

>it should look like Blade Runner because Blade Runner looks like Blade Runner

>>15464654

Themes in the Cyberpunk genre, among other things, revolve around the triumph of technology over nature (in a bad way). Think, then, what blotting the Sun out by man-made means would mean, and then what not blotting it out would mean. Also, neon lights do just look better in darkness.

>>15464663

>it's supposed to look awful and clash with the setting

<What is EYE, Deus Ex and Nomad

>retard

How is New York not a dystopian shithole anon?

>cyberunk also defines itself different than you do

Oh, I forgot that your a nigger and english isnt your first language

>>15464686

Honestly I don't see a lick of the aesthetic you are talking about in 2077, daytime or no.

>>15464679

I personally find blistering summer heat quite oppressive. Especially if your in some highly polluted city environment, surrounded by sweaty punk balls.

>>15464684

>Deus Ex

a game that takes place entirely at night and used it to define its aesthetic

>How is New York not a dystopian shithole anon?

justify that it is first if you want a counter-argument

>Oh, I forgot that your a nigger and english isnt your first language

>heh…you made a typo, that means I win :^)

found the shill

>>15464686

It's confirmed to have a day/night cycle.

>>15464706

>heh…you made a typo, that means I win :^)

If you can't proof read your argument and not look like a retard, then sure I win automatically

> Muh darkness with pink neon lights though

t. faggots who actually thought bladerunner was good

>>15464732

Doesn't really work when 2077 looks more cyberpunk then most of the images

>>15464732

The shots that show the denser city areas look pretty on point to me. The map would get boring if it was all just towering sky scrapers.

It's a been a while since I read Neuromancer, but doesn't a chunk of it take place in a swanky hotel on the moon, or something?

>>15464749

>>15464750

Yeah just call it Watchdogs 3 and be done with it.

It's not fucking cyberpunk, SJW propaganda or not.

>>15464770

>it's not exclusively skyscrapers at night with neon lights, even though it will have plenty of that

>>15464775

>failure is a victory

As you say shlomo-san.

Isn't Watchdogs literally cyberpunk too?

>>15464805

Can I sign up for that? I'll take money to argue with retards who don't know what cyberpunk is.

>>15464784

Cyberpunk games have always been hit or miss, so no loss there. 2077 has a relatively good chance of being something big, though. We got to see nearly an hour's worth of content, so the guys are confident at least.

>>15464805

Your complaining will only give more incentive for them to market this to you, so why even bother replying? :^)

Just ban Cyberpunk threads. They're all a mess.

>>15464966

Since so many people think CP77 it's going to be shit, let's talk about Synther instead.

Low-poly, yea or nay ?

>>15464482

>One would expect that walls would break apart, bullet penetration would be common for all applicable weapons and walls, or destructible cover fire would be standard fare, right? Wrong.

Blind Angry Retards eyes don't work

opinion discarded

>>15465089

>Cyberpunk can't have sunlight, but it can look a heavily compressed .gif

But Blade Runner never looked like this.

>>15465155

Try to watch Blade Runner on a damaged VHS, that'd the only troo 80's Xperience

>>15465174

That's not VHS artifacting though.

>>15464482

The "game" is made by leftists.

It is guaranteed to be shit.

This "game" is nothing more than marxist propaganda.

I bet many people will enjoy playing the NeTRunner type class.

>>15464602

Those kinds of examples are rare, few and far between

Basically the "based" illegal immigrants that liberals like to tout out and not representative of the kind of low dick-sucking quality that introducing those attributes would typically do

>they are going to darken up the day because retards complained about the day being sunny in los angeles

This is why we can't have good things.

cant wait to play it
