Many people have criticized the sparse use of Braindance in the game, and although I'd still love to see a more creative and brave way of these multi-sensual movies being implemented into the game, I ask myself since day 1: Why is there no real Netrunning (or for my fellow Shadowrunners Decking) in the game?
The Matrix is a huge and important component of the Cyberpunk universe, and while Netrunners and their equipment are everywhere, we don't have the chance to run the net / deck into the matrix just once. And I'm super bummed by that.
With Jackie's and T-Bug's "Practice Makes Perfect" VR-app we see, how netrunning / decking could look like. Customizing our own Matrix persona, learn and buy hacks, code and programs, jack into access points, run the 'Trix, break into corp systems, fight against / outsmart ICE and corp deckers, steal data, gain access to files, cams, elevators, play games, meet other deckers in Shadowland BBS...
In my opinion it would be such a simple yet fun way to enrich the game.
