Isn't that what maths can be used for, find, predict patterns?
I did not read the wiki article, I have just consulted the Pattern Recognition page to check the release date.
Again I don't want to get onto fights and I'm definitely not one to rely on regarding cyberpunk literature but since you mentioned Gibson and Neuromancer and his later works then let me talk about Ridley Scott, who, according to probably at least half the world population, managed to direct Blade Runner in the most beautiful and fantastic way yadyada.. and 20 years later look what he was doing. I like Ridely Scotts work a lot but I cannot say Gladiator's a scifi flick because he did Blade Runner.
My first reply to this thread was to give props to @
giammotto for the cool ideas but Cyberpunk2077 is cyberpunk, the moment you start to ditch fundamental ideas that make the genre, it stops being cyberpunk, would you not agree? Cyberpunk2077 is cyberpunk and isn't called NEO-Cyberpunk2077... or should it?
That was rhetoric but please feel to comment if you like.
