@LukeAlmighty Thing is... as bad as things are today, someone from medieval time would think living anywhere in Europe today would be epic.
We've lost perspective of how much life has improved because of technology, and I'd wager it makes sense in universe that people in Cyberpunk consider it a dystopia, because they also lost perspective on things and focus only on their present day issues.
I had a sobering though a year ago. Back during the days of Mozart or Beethoven, these people weren't composing music for the wider audience. Entertainment was a thing solely for the rich. But today, a homeless person in America can listen to any music he wants on a pocket sized computer.
Or Tim Pool likes to make the argument that the original oil baron had worse dental care than an average american has today.
People are free to complain about wealth inequalities, but they should also take a second and appreciate that they probably have access to the same, if not more, life amenities than the richest of the rich from not that long ago. That is bonkers to me.
So yeah, any realistic fiction set in a much more technologically advanced future, is gonna have some of the things we care about solved thanks to technology, while also introducing new unique problems that make it a dystopia.
I haven't played the game, but my understanding was that the dystopic element was some kind of augmentation psychosis and people losing their humanity.

Seriously, if you didn't get an alt contact on your friends the second you heard about this issue the first time, then you are the problem.
@alyx
No, but only libertarians care about freedom, so saying conservatives have no freedom would be like saying monkeys have no phones.
@hachi
You cannot be free to create a safe family, when there are predators around the corner ready to castrate your kids.
@eee
Thank you for your honesty.

I seriously feel like people are incapable of speaking Trumpese...
He literally says, that the tarifs serve as a balance to already existing ones. And instead of calling Trump with line "0 to 0 daddy?" everyone starts panicking incapable of forming a plan on what to do next.

Unless literally majority of your wealth is in US stock, then you don't need to care.
And if you're rich enough to buy stock, a TOTAL CRASH (not just this fart) is an ideal time to buy.

There is one condition, where I could see this working...
If he made a warhammer movie. Then, at least he could re-use the figures for something useful.
