I think this will hopefully do a decent amount of repairing the Cyberpunk 2077 brand for CDPR.
I think so too.
Here is to hoping it causes a crap ton of pre-orders and we get another expansion centered around Lucy.

Would be cool to feature Lucy in an upcoming Mission or Gig. You know, one of those Edgerunner Missions where you have to put a crew togetherI think so too.

David just tried to realize/live dreams... And in this case, dreams from others (from his mom at first, then from Maine). He ended obviously like all Night City legends, but finally allowed Lucy to realize her dream.Enjoyed it but the ending is kind of stupid, just showed David was after all a dumb arse that didn't learn from the guy that taught him and threw away what he could have had with Lucy for "reasons"...

Would be cool indeed however isn't she suppose to have taken a one way ticket to the moon?Would be cool to feature Lucy in an upcoming Mission or Gig. You know, one of those Edgerunner Missions where you have to put a crew together
I hope you give it a chance. I don't binge-watch on Netfilx anyway, so am currently up to Episode 6. To me, it clicks almost *perfectly* with the game environment, same vibe and attitudes, but the stand-alone story is building emotionally with each episode.It seems to be the goal and you either get it right or end up agreeing with me about 'character development' (involves relationships). I said and I keep saying it, pure glitter but it ends up being a very poorly made glitter because the concept behind it is, in my view, very, very bad (I wrote about it in the first post and made fun of it as 'shoot, shoot, shoot, guns, guns, guns').
But I'll see the rest of the chapters, I stopped halfway through two (I couldn't stand it...). Who knows, it gets better. There are good scenes, which try to illustrate the 'mourning', for example, but they are also - in my opinion - poorly constructed.
The impression I have is that everything that refers to Cyberpunk 2077 is related to 'making it fast', even condemning the entire structure, be it the game, anime, whatever... this is the conception that comes, also in my view , killing a good idea.
OK, yea I completely agree there. I actually expected this when I heard they went with Studio Trigger. Based on their past anime projects, they always focus on senseless shooting and loud, hyper violence. Not good storytelling.It seems to be the goal and you either get it right or end up agreeing with me about 'character development' (involves relationships).

I fail to see how it clicks with the game. The game is a drama. This is basically a comedy where everything is exaggerated and can't be taken seriously. I couldn't make it very far, not likely I'll finish it. This bares no resemblance to the game except being in Night CityI hope you give it a chance.

As an aside, when I see people disappointed that future CP adventures may not feature V, the anime shows exactly why that shouldn't be a problem.
OK so we have different views, that's OK. I did say the game *environment* and vibe, and for me they realised it very well indeed. You expected or looked for something different perhaps.I fail to see how it clicks with the game. The game is a drama.

Yea I played the game, enjoyed it a lot which is why this was a bit of a let down because the game introduced themes like cyber psychosis and capturing the human consciousness which I believed would make for great storytelling in a similar vein to something like Ghost in the Shell.Really? Did you play the game? I mean, the show's entire vibe is definitely very reminiscent of the game. The nods and outright references to the game are numerous throughout.
I'm not saying this because I'm a fan of the series. I'm saying this despite the fact that the show left me very indifferent to it. I am not an anime fan. This series felt very tropey and full of typical anime clichés to me. I gave it a shot only because I love the game. I watched all 10 episodes and I felt just.... meh... about it.
The animes I enjoyed throughout my life can be counted on a single hand but I can only applaud the studio's ability to capture the right vibe.

To be clear, I'm not saying the show is bad or anything like that. Like I said, not an anime fan at all, so I consider my own opinion about the show's quality to be worthless. I'm obviously biased from the get-go. It's just not a show for me.

I'm a huge anime fan so I already knew not to get my hopes up because I was familiar with Trigger going in. Their work has its place in more over the top, parody type anime so I knew I wouldn't like this much. Still gave it a shot but couldn't get through it sadly.
When Season 2?The show is excellent. It's everything I want out of a dystopian, cyberpunk story. Credit to CDPR and Trigger for making it such a success, and I REALLY fucking hope we get another season.
When Season 2?
No, seriously. They need to continue the Show. Awesome Stuff.
