    Holy crap, dude. This trilogy has basically covered my childhood interests then gone all the way up to now. My kids (24 and 21) have taken an interest in the things I was into growing up, getting more of a taste for cyberpunk the more I showed them. Last year's game didn't hurt either. But this trilogy has been an amazing resource, opening up their reading and movie experiences in a major way. The nostalgia trip for me has been 2nd to none as well, fyi. THANKYOU!

      That said, there are more than a few 'new to me' games and films I will watch due to this series, and a ton of context and subtext of which I was unaware for so many films I've watched to the point of knowing every line. 10/10 the best thing I've come across on UA-cam in years

    It's shocking how much you feel the post-modernism dripping off of anything Cyberpunk. This desire to escape the current life, to a future no matter how flawed (due to human nature or continuing issues). Everything was cleanly organized, and I really enjoyed the Ghost in the Shell segment. Quality video as always Indigo congrats on getting this thing out. Now MMO developers pls watch these and make a cyberpunk MMO, thanks!

      Who in their right mind would want to live in any of cyberpunk-worlds?
      90% are dystopias and life there just sucks, hard.
      Sure, if you were an ultra-wealthy corporate-tool that might work out alright, but in what world wouldn't it?
      For the rest you are either practically a modern work-slave, or part of the violent underbelly of society _(the punk part)_
      It's the same like most mediaeval reenacters told me:
      The middle ages were cool and all, but you wouldn't want to live there for more than a weekend.
      Same principal applies here.

      @@KaedeHot Oh yeah, we are already 100% in the beginning years of a cyberpunk-dystopia, the stuff that gets skimped over in most forewords within a few sentences.
      The main differences currently are:
      • We lack really strong, yet small power sources necessary to run cybernetics like in CP2077 _(we can already run simple once for a day or so)_
      • We lack really sophisticated neurological interfaces to connect cyberware and software to our brains
      • We don't have open warzones _(yet)_ were police wont help you and you *have* to carry guns just to survive the day, think Mogadishu in the 90s at its worst, just on an almost global scale
      There are of course more differences, but our present wouldn't look out of place as a recent past in most cyberpunk-works.

No one ever acknowledges our existence in the West so the fact that you knew this (cause of your research) just makes me really really happy. Thank you.

    It's frustrating how everyone attributes the entire cyberpunk genre to Cyberpunk 2077, when it's existed for 40+ years. Hardware, Nemesis, and Deus Ex are what got me into cyberpunk back in the day and my love blew up from there. Amazing video dude can't wait for part 3.

    • @Skiamakhos
      @Skiamakhos 2 роки тому +2

      Cyberpunk 2077 is just the latest iteration though - I was playing R. Talsorian Games' Cyberpunk back in '88, long before Deus Ex came out. This is the good thing though: both are just part of a sci fi subculture that goes back to Philip K Dick's novels & short stories, which themselves owe a fair bit to the likes of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, who herself was inspired by Samuel Taylor Coleridge's nightmare visions of "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" (see her arctic scenes in particular - but also there's fanmail she sent him when she was a girl). Ain't culture great? :-D

      The one thing that blew up with Cyberpunk's release was the popularity of the subgenre of electronic music "Midtempo" erroneously called "Cyberpunk" as a music genre, all cause of the OST's heavy use of that subgenre.
