      God, fucking thank you. Did seriously no one pick up that was the secondary message of cyberpunk (aside from fuck corpo’s) all along? People are people no matter what they chose to do with their bodies?

      I swear, it’s like they sold different versions of that game and I’ve never played the other

        i’ve noticed that cyberpunk (and most thing-punk stories) tend to skew more towards the thing part than the punk part, doubly so for ones meant for a wide scale audience.
        capital G Gamers shit and piss themselves when a character creation screen reminds them pronouns are a thing, they’d explode if a story did anything more than elude to future gender fuckery
