Whoever added this into My Library, loves from the bottom of my heart <3
Im checking all the tables and it seems I can make a story by using the Story Diagram and the tables on top of my head.
Also, if your water is not green, it is not clean LOOOOL :D

Cyberpunk: Red and TTRPGs are not video games. I hate it when people want "table-top: the video-game experience: based on table-top role playing" experience. That's the garbage that makes D&D poop now.Quote:

Anyone who wants to compare a TTRPG to video games that spent years trying to mimic TTRPGs should just play video games.
One of the most important, if not the most important, concepts in Cyberpunk is the low-life. This is represented by the lifestyle and rent cost per month. You have to work and put your life on the line just to eat kibble. This was in the video game, but video game players cannot role-play and therefore it was removed. Do your clothes matter in a video game? Cause if you come in packing 18 guns and look like a punk in a restaurant, you should get kicked out.
Video games kill this hobby.
With all you've said I agree, especially for DnD. But in this case, the CP2077 video game sparked the impossible in me and got me into sci-fi world.Quote:

For example, I was wrong that sci-fi games/shows should not incite all the depressive feelings in the audience. But I learned that it is also part of life, and it CAN be entertainment when done right.
CDPR proved me wrong by showing me the low-life aspect of the setting in such a way, especially in the multiple endings that I understood this is actually what I want:
Impactful, emotional stories.
Other than that, for long time players, I understand where you come from. I feel the same for DnD 5E. I miss 3.5 ed so much, and the direction they got to appeal video gamers made the game worse IMO. But it also made the setting gain many new people.
I hate to admit but If they dont do this, any setting bleeds out cause we get old.
Other than these, I played it so badly that despite all the super merc traits I reloaded far too many times.:D So, you're wrong on being invincible with dumb decisions.
But this is like coming from Neverwinter Nights into DnD 3.5 and Im all for it.
Now Im for the actual Cyberpunk which thanks to you, I can learn what it actually is, as you see, Im aware that video games are not TTRPGs...
Speaking of which, what do you think about my Role, Gigs, and Subgenres & Cinematic articles? I wrote these without knowing anything and I hope it fits the setting.
Happy Gaming, and may you tell the stories only YOU can tell!Quote:
