Corporations ARE le bad though

They are though.

Well, they are, but it’s a story and a very cerebral one. Of course it has a lesson to learn from.

At least it wasn’t being woke or preaching about the end times of a 2000 year old prediction. It really does become an issue when the aesop anvil doesn’t need to be dropped.

Absolutely, most of the Cyberpunk genre is meant to entertain. The dystopian setting is used as a foil to a hyper-individualistic power-trip main character fantasy.

Nothing inherently wrong with that, but it’s good to be aware of. You don’t want to live in night city, you want to be the invincible god-like merc that lives in night city. You don’t want to live in the matrix, you want to be the bullet time kung fu Neo.

It’s for fun, it’s a fantasy.
