Can someone suggest to me a Cyberpunk RPG I can play EXCEPT Shadowrun games?
EDIT:
I already had a suggestion to play Deus Ex, so I need something else as well.

You ever try to hunt down any of the classics, like Snatcher?
Do you have any interest in Xenogears and/or Xenosaga?
Have you ever looked into the Phantasy Star saga (classic or modern), or Star Ocean games?
Do you play any Fallout games or Metro 2033?
Have you ever heard of Strife, a pre-Quake first-person game that is a shooter with RPG elements that was obscure because Quake came out several months after its inception?
And finally, I feel I should promote the .hack games (classic ones, GU, and LINK) for creating this massive phenomenon which stretched over games, anime, manga, and books regarding the fictional massive multiplayer game known simply as The World.
Nope really. I learned at first about ShadowRun Universe from the Reviewer Spoony One. His story hooked me up to hear more stories for him. I miss him I must admit.....Aelinsaar said:Have any of you guys/gals played actual P&P Shadowrun? D&D? I haven't for a loooong time, but I think Shadowrun was my favorite to actually play. I don't really have the time for it alongside work, life, and hobbies, but I was thrilled to see such a faithful Shadowrun game come out.
Do you have an interesting story to share? I really love the stories I watched from Spoony and some others comment I saw.Aelinsaar said:I thought that might be the case.

Also I played only the first recent RPG ShadowRun.
Btw, just for your information, I played in the end "Beyond Good and Evil."Lilani said:I haven't played any of these, so depending on how you look at it I'm either the most impartial or most useless judge you can get on this, but to me Invisible Apartment Zero sounds the most interesting.SweetShark said:Q:What shall I play next?
Unrest, Beyond Good and Evil, Invisible Apartment Zero or Narcissu 1st & 2nd.
Q: Should I try to go to Indie Popcon in June? It's the closest convention that will probably get to me that will have Markiplier, Jacksepticeye, and all of those people, but I may or may not be losing my job in the next couple of months[footnote]Long story short, technically my position is temporary, but I've almost had it for two years now as they haven't found someone qualified enough to take it full time. They're looking for someone with ~10 years more experience than me, and I haven't been able to get that much experience in two years. A prospective candidate has emerged and they'll be looking into the position, but nothing's final yet and they've made no offer.[/footnote] and I'm going to start planning a wedding soon so the cost of tickets, room and board for the weekend, plus the ~6 hour drive there one way isn't exactly a small investment. I would bring my fiance as well, but only if he could come and was interested. Pragmatically, what is the wisest choice? This is really feeling like an "I need an adult" moment for me, lol.
It could be more cooler if a part of the campaign was design for your death of your character. Not just a few lines exposition for his death....Aelinsaar said:I don't think I have any great stories that aren't just nerdy stories about some campaigns we ran. Although... in High school I boarded, so we all lived together and had tons of free time when we couldn't go out or do anything outside of the dorm. So, we decided to run some Evil D&D and Shadowrun campaigns... we'd be the bad guys, fighting the good guys. It's actually tough to manage, and I... well... I was young and stupidly decided to be the equivalent of a raging psychopath.SweetShark said:Do you have an interesting story to share?

So, my friends have these dialed-in "Supreme Evil Overlord" types to roleplay, and I'm quickly realizing that I'm forced to make TERRIBLE and self-destructive decisions because of the way I've written my character. My friend's chars are all losing patience with my guy's shit, so they have a private meeting with our GM for 10 minutes and the next in-game "morning" arrives.
My character, I am told, is dead. He has been mysteriously flayed alive, cut into chunks, burned, and then the skin draped over the ashes.
So yeah... I re-rolled a more useful character, but it was a good lesson about the nature of Chaotic Evil.
Too early to tell, but it will be interesting to see if they've made any mechanical (as well as narrative) tweaks based off feedback from The Bureau. Am trying to wrack my brain to remember if any X-COM:EU DLC came out after the release of The Bureau...SweetShark said:Q: Is there a possibility the new X-Com 2 to be connected story wise with "The Bureau" game?
I'm not sure of the details because I only heard of it offhandedly from a friend in engineering, but hanging a wet towel behind a fan is supposed to be quite effective if you live in a dry climate. This video is the closest I can find of it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePqIw-DzVycEvilRoy said:Q: Is it possible to jury-rig an air conditioner out of a humidifier, a fan and a block of ice? I've been working at this idea for a little while, because it isn't worth buying one for the 20 days a year I would use one, but I haven't been able to produce a consistent cold breeze yet.
Nah, I still prefer the classic "Destroy all humans" more.IndianaJonny said:Too early to tell, but it will be interesting to see if they've made any mechanical (as well as narrative) tweaks based off feedback from The Bureau.

If you're looking for your narrative fix of secretly combating the 'greys' across the 20th and early-21st century, I'd check out the tie-in fiction for the Delta Green RPG universe, it's pretty good.

Captcha: I am fine
We need more captcha like that. Feels nice to type out.
I remember it had some legal issues and I gave it up as dead, and now I have stopped liking MLP due to the fanbase.SweetShark said:Q: Who still remember there is a MLP like Fighting Game at work:
My advice would be to play Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas. Not because you need to, but because they're decent games and if you don't like them, you saved £40 on buying Fallout 4; nearby Steam Sale will let you get them for pennies. But no, you don't need to.SweetShark said:Q:
It would be better for me to play the first Fallout games before starting playing Fallout 4?
I will admit when I saw the Noir influence in the trailer, it make me a little hopeful I will like it.
Then I think to myself the Bugs.......the Bugs that make the game work like sh*t sadly...
Possible? Yes. Likely? No.SweetShark said:Q: Is there a possibility the new X-Com 2 to be connected story wise with "The Bureau" game?
About religion in particular, or general morality?FPLOON said:Follow-Up Question: Do you have any movie suggestions that could fit any of the criteria given in the answer of the original question?L. Declis said:SNIP!
No.
Instead, watch a good movie, and then discuss the morality of it. Not even Christian morality. But pick a good film with an interesting premise to discuss. If you can find a film where right and wrong are very hard to define, the better the discussion will be.
Hell, pick a documentary about a social issue, and then ask them how they believe the problem should be sorted.
It is no anymore a MLP game. It is an Original IP, but as you can see they still have the same artist from MLP recent series.L.

Simply put, both 'terrestrial' and 'extraterrestrial' creatures inhabit the Delta Green universe.SweetShark said:Nah, I still prefer the classic "Destroy all humans" more.
But with all seriousness, I checked quickly the suggestion and I notice it take heavily inspiration from Lovecraft's Lore.
How the Aliens are connected with the Lovecraft's Monsters?
