elilla&, famigerada travesti@lluviadepeces I've played through both Meatpunks more than once and I only have the highest praise for it! Top recommendation for sure! Also as someone who allegedly actually fights nazis on the streets I will say that hthr has perfectly captured the experience of dealing with nazis!

Extremely #Meatpunks vibes on this one. Straight-er than Meatpunks, sure, but not totally straight. Also just like, EXTREMELY good.
Really fascinated by how unflichingly they didn't hesitate when its blood and gore happened, the way movies tend to be, while I'm pretty sure saving that cinematic language for other things, I think? I mean, maybe. I only saw it once and I'm not enough of a cinemaphile to keep track of those things while just watching a movie, so I'm half just presuming/vaguely sure, and if they did use that then presumably there was a pattern to the usage. I dunno, if you like watching movies like that this might be a good way to watch this movie. Also it's just, a good movie.

ߋߡۺ৩֎@RadicalEdward the problem with most modern cyberpunk media is exactly as you say. a co-opted "aesthetic" to build a world in. its become a flavor of scifi after losing any of the weight its warnings could have carried. we already live in the world depicted, just less neon and worse fashion. the warnings can no longer serve purpose because we are already there.
a modern cyberpunk game, that is actually "punk" is #meatpunks by @HTHR imo. its not just a paint for a style of your world, its political commentary
perhaps the only ironic cyberpunk game is cp2077, because it was released by a large corp through exploiting its workers so broken it was ultimately to face a class action lawsuit. the game as itself, is so commoditized, that it literally is what it appears to condemn.
a non cyberpunk art piece could be cogmind (idk the story well enough to say) or ready player 1. fictional worlds influenced by the setting of cyberpunk worlds, but entirely missing the point.

Local Dad, Ben HamillI don't have easy access to my machine where I can play #Meatpunks season 2 and I'm a bit bummed about it. OTOH, it'll be a nice little present waiting for me whenever I can figure out how to resolve that problem.
