I’ve been generally hearing that it’s good and been thinking about playing it. I’m not sure if it’s my type of game or not. Was looking to hear about people’s experiences and if you had any fun stories to share?

I also have some questions:

  • I’m not comfortable with nudity or sex. Apparently this can be turned off in game. If you used this option, how effective is it?

  • How integral to the game is combat and looting?

  • I’m Autistic. If you’re Autistic, do you feel that the game can accommodate Autistic players? (For example, I’d feel uncomfortable if the game forced me to take part in pointless social interactions like attending/talking to people at a party. I wouldn’t know what to do in that situation and I would feel very stressed, and probably not do what I was “supposed to” in the game’s rules.)

  • Have you played with any mods? Good mods? Bad mods?

  • Did you have a good time?

Thank you so much! cyber-lenin trans-heart

      Neuromancer was an iconic, genre defining work of literature that shaped both literature and people’s views of the world. I read it before the turn of the century, it might seem less impactful now decades later.

        Nah I mean it’s still at least 40% not trash, it has some really nice flashes of brilliance at times, and it’s got a nice retrofuture sheen now

        Also “the sky was the color of television tuned to a dead channel” is the best opening line in literature and for many people it already makes as much sense as “wine dark sea”
