Cyberpunk 2077 Grieving Thread

What kind of futuristic dystopia has a clear enough sky that the sun is able to touch ground? Where's the pollution?
Well, Cyberpunk 2020 had the Home of the Brave sourcebook so your nomad crew could cruise around the southwestern United States like a mix of Easy Rider and Roadwar 2000... Then there's Hardwired and When Gravity Fails if playing cybered up Hell's Angels isn't your cup of tea, for example.
 
These two links contain a torrent for the GOG preload for Cyberpunk 2077 and the missing files from the preload. These aren't a scam, I've gotten them to work. If anyone wants proof I can put some below.
Question is do these files install a trojan that activates itself after 48 hours or sth.
 
>Urbanized futuristic setting
>Where is the pollution

Like bro the industrial age was centuries ago. Where is the pollution coming from? Did they bring all the manufacturing jobs back to America? Is that fancy CHOOH2 super gas highly polluting? This isn't the 80s. "high tech stuff = tons of pollution" isn't a trope anymore.

Fallout's backstory involved everyone using ALL THE OIL on earth and then nuked EVERYTHING but apparently there is no long term weather change but who cares because that game is perfect but Cyberpunk 2077 should have smog from (???)
I'm not even arguing that Cyberpunk 2077 doesn't look cyberpunk, because unlike some people here I actually do think it nails down the look very well. I'm saying that your constant bringing up of New Vegas just because someone complimented it in comparison to this game is dumb. And no, scientifically by the time Fallout New Vegas takes place the fallout would have receded. The water would be drinkable. Outside of the rusting structures and lack of people it would look pretty damn normal.

Calm your hateboner for NV. It's getting kinda silly.

People aren't comparing it to NV because it's some untouchable masterpiece that people will keep jacking off a century from now. It's being compared to NV because both are supposed to be in-depth RPGs, but with the one released in 2020 being horrifically shallow in comparison to another released a decade earlier. The frustration of the genre taking five steps back is more than understandable.

Also, many parts of California have smog now. I am totally in disbelief that a futuristic city that gave up any environmental care will have no pollution. I'll forgive, with a side-eye, a game that's as old as NV for it (especially with the reputation of the company behind it at the time), but not a game that could simply not stop calling itself deep and detailed and other synonyms of how much care was put in the project only for a half-assed product to be puked out.

oh no someone said F:NV (blessed be its name) I'd better complain and say it isn't relevant before this nonbeliever besmirches it.

Night City also got nuked and remade so I guess its OK that it doesn't have any smog since that is what happened in New Vegas.
 
So nobody has discovered a Ciri easter egg in Cyberpunk yet?
There's got to be one. Even a mere mention.
Too much fascination with dildos and trannies.
 
Can we stop derailing the thread with autistic comparisons to F:NV? One is actually a good game and another is shaping up to be AAA cancer so there's no comparison.

In other news, checked out the "pussy" ending where you just say fuck it and take off to Arizona. If your character romanced Panam at all it makes for a very fulfilling scene and ends on a somewhat hopeful note that the chip will be taken care of. Doesn't really feel like a pussy ending at all after seeing it.

When Gravity Fails was an interesting one for it's time, as it had heavy emphasis on Islamic culture AND fuck-ton of transsexual people running around, to a point that the gender-reassignment surgery was a major theme both in the original novel and even more so in the Cyberpunk 2020 sourcebook based on it. Considering how prevalent both of these topics are in the modern world, it's strange that no-one has yet made it into a computer game.

I'm probably going to play a Nomad actually, after seeing that ending. It seems like the most fulfilling option.
