Night City, the City of Dreams. A gleaming chrome facade of a city hiding a rotting underside.
And also your home. Whether you've grown up on the streets a gutterpunk, always looked down on the rot from the upper echelons of a corpo tower, or are a just recently arrived outsider, you find yourself stuck here. This city has a way of making sure every single one of its citizens are constantly drowning in something. Debt, problems, money, drugs; you name it, Night City has it.
You've been trying to claw your way up that iconic social ladder for years now, and seem to finally have gotten your chance. Your favorite fixer, Vex, hit you up with a big lead. She's been gathering some intel on a Militech truck convoy for a while now, and finally sent you a ping to meet her in the usual spot.
Welcome to Night City, chooms! With the Humble Bundle containing all of Cyberpunk Red's published material, along with finishing the Edgerunners anime and starting the 2077 video game recently, I've been deep diving into the Cyberpunk world.
Is there much interest for a Cyberpunk Red game on the boards? I'm early on in the brainstorming phase, and haven't finished learning the system yet, so it'll probably be a month or two out before I get things settled. Just checking if its worth the effort!
Ultimately it would depend on the game's particulars, but I would not say no to some CPR generally.
Particulars? I’m still working on the ‘plot’, but did you mean something else?

I simply did not wish to give the impression of unconditionally committing ahead of time, as considerations such as character creation restrictions, house rules, posting rate expectations, etc. also figure into whether I end up applying to any given game or not. (Though you could quite rightly point out that this probably goes for most anybody!)
Oh, right, of course. Yeah, this is mostly an interest check above all else. Just seeing if there’s a playerbase for Red to make learning ghe system worth it.
Wowza, I've been hoping to get a chance to play RED sometime, stoked to see some interest in it!
I'd give it a go!

Glad to hear! I’ve always loved the cyberpunk vibe, and getting into the world through the anime, the game and now the TTRPG has made me even more interested in the universe.
Played the original and wouldn't mind giving the new version a twirl.

From what I’ve seen in reviews and discussions, it seems to be similar to 2020. Just updates to certain systems.
Like I said, it'll likely be a bit. Want to finish the 2077 game and have some other genre research (Bladerunner 2049, Altered Carbon, etc) to do before I finalize my grand campaign idea.
Appreciate the interest!
