Dev Update #146
Alright, so as stated last week, renders and animations were not my focus this week. Still did a good deal of content but nothing crazy, it was more customs and writing. I also took it easy yesterday and today.
So, next week we will be back on all fronts. This update is basically 2 phases and the first is basically done on the render side, but still have writing that needs to be done for it, as well as what I call the connective tissue for it. The 2nd phase is smaller as a whole but will still take time which starts this week. There are going to be some really cool scenes that are swimming in my head and getting ready to come to life. Going to be fun!
Now I am horribly low on beer. By low I mean completely out
As always guys, stay awesome!

up to dev. can decide that ends on 13 or 16.No. It will have at least 14, maybe 15.
By the genre, not the game, though.I'd seen this game going around for a while but I only just realised it is inspired by cyberpunk!
Not without a time machine, friend. This story began LONG before the CDPR game was ever even announced, at least well before I had ever heard of it. CoBD first breached this site early in 2019 if memory serves. I began following early on.inspired by cyberpunk!
By the genre, not the game, though.
this is "bit" older than that cyberpunk 2077.
No one is arguing that the Cyberpunk Pen and Paper RPG or the idea for adapting the game into a video game is older than City of Broken Dreamers, however as a fan of the genre Cyberpunk since it basically began with WIlliam Gibson's novel Neuromancer, in 1984, I can assure you that a)Cyberpunk the game is very much inspired by the works of Gibson, Bruce Sterling, Walter Jon Williams and the others who developed the literary genre and films like Blade Runner.The polish game version on wiki: "It is based onYou must be registered to see the links'sYou must be registered to see the linksrole-playing game franchise; Pondsmith started consulting on the project in 2012.You must be registered to see the linksYou must be registered to see the links" Cyberpunk 2077 was announced in May 2012.You must be registered to see the linksTrailers for the game were released in January 2013,You must be registered to see the links
Thank you, my friend, I agree. Besides, most wiki articles on pop culture are written by fans and seldom fact checked beyond one or two sources. Philly's content does use genre tropes but is 100% original content and doesn't plagiarize any source. The only part on which I don't agree is that cyberpunk as a concept and genre existed well before 1984. That one by Gibson is new to me. The majority of my experience with science fiction comes from film rather than books. David Cronenberg's Videodrome, starring James Woods released in 1983 and Ridley Scott's infamous Blade Runner released in 1982. The concepts found in cyberpunk have been around since the 60's and 70's but as far as I can tell the first mention of the actual term cyberpunk is currently credited to Bruce Bethke who released a novel of the same title, "Cyberpunk" in 1982. I don't mean to argue, just curious as I had not previously heard of Neuromancer by William Gibson. I'm sure that we can all agree that our love of and fascination with cyberpunk is very much alive and well.No one is arguing that the Cyberpunk Pen and Paper RPG or the idea for adapting the game into a video game is older than City of Broken Dreamers, however as a fan of the genre Cyberpunk since it basically began with WIlliam Gibson's novel Neuromancer, in 1984, I can assure you that a)Cyberpunk the game is very much inspired by the works of Gibson, Bruce Sterling, Walter Jon Williams and the others who developed the literary genre and films like Blade Runner.
And b) It is by itself a very derivative work and "City of Broken Dreamers" takes it's inspiration from the same sources the RPG system does, not the RPG itself.
Claiming that "Broken Dreamers" is inspired by the RPG is like claiming that EVERY single Urban Fantasy novel where modern civilization meets magic and fairy tale creatures, is based on the Shadowun RPG system.
Philly's games so far have been very much genre games, the first one "Depraved Awakening" is a Neo-Noir game, just like this is a Cyberpunk game.
In both cases I would argue that Philly is simply working with the tropes and set pieces of the genre and less with specific inspiration from novels, books or games.
