I thought sci-fi action 2077 was a first person game and was never a third person game lies lies lies lies lies and more lies lies lies lies!!

Should have added "THE LAST NIGHT" pixel videogame which everyone wanted, but SJWs canceled.

This video was so awesome! Great job! I’ve been watching over and over. Even used it as calming sound before going to bed! ✌️

@Aleister Crowley with over 100 hours in game I love it your very short memory serves you ill in this conversation I actually remember The Witcher 3's launch I remember how bad that was I remember seeing the project Read fixing it I remember them giving out 16 free DLC to make it right I'm not going to be a dumbass and not give him a chance to fix it especially when they're the only company and if you can think of another please by all means name one just one that actually offered refunds I'll wait for you to name a company that did that or gave out half as much DLC after fixing a game as CD projekt red has to make things right in the past you go ahead and act like a royal a****** about the game's launch that's cool I'll stick with logic rather than fly into a rage at one of the last good game companies you've already lost sit down

@The inevitable God Emperor Deadpool how is the game going for you ? it's KEANUE MAHHHHN sorry maybe a book. movie,no way. acting and the nonsense is awful and since GG most games suck because of look at me i'm a woman or gay or both or transmutant penis implant. saved my money thank the GODS

I want cyberpunk to be real. No, not the destroyed earth and the apparent 2 pack a day required smoking habit. But I'd love a robot spine rather than my... twitchy one. Super legs? Sign me up. Computer built into my arm? Tell me what kind of anti-virus works best with it.

This is the best documentary I've ever seen about one of my favorite genres. Amazing work!

i am so fucking glad you talked about shadowrun, seriously one of my favorite RPG settings! my first character in the tabletop was an orc street cowboy who used to run security for Aries. his lower arms and legs where all chromed out, his lower legs resembled cowboy boots and had hydraulic jacks that let him jump to crazy heights, his left arm had extra armor plating and a stabilizer for his Yerzed out cavalier deputy and his right arm contained a semi auto shotgun... he also rode on a chopper and wore a black duster and cowboy hat. my second character was a frail technomancer human (they can magically interact with cyberspace with no need for any electronic interface)... he nearly died... a lot... he wasn't treated well by the team either.... and the last character i played was a highly educated elf wizard who specialized in healing magic. he also practiced traditional medicine. this isnt to say he didnt fight. he was skilled in elven martial arts, and had some offensive spells up his sleeve... to the ire of some of the team... another thing that irked them was the fact i turned a street legal APC into an up-armored ambulance that i operated a boot leg medical clinic out of for the SINless (System Identification Number... basically non-citizens- shadow people- nobodies)

Good documentary, finished the game and it is quite close to the resources mentioned here.

I thought Blade Runner was overhyped movie but no it really is masterpiece and visuals still hold great after almost 40 years.

I knew it CDPR took Batty from Blade Runner.

This is like the 3rd or 4th time I watched this documentary.

@Indigo Gaming it's just so informative and interesting. Because of this video I pretty much got more into the cyberpunk genre.

I'm glad it's so replayable!

vampire

I will say this much....BLM and ANTIFA PROVE we need more militarized cops. As far as I am concerned, the quicker the cops can remove, kill, or otherwise stop someone burning down my home or business, the better..

or let us shoot them if any of them destroy, burn, loot..

Replicants werent machines

Very good breakdown. I planned to watch it in pieces but watched it in a single sitting. Thanks for the hard work.

Thanks for watching!

An absolute masterpiece of a video!! The kind you would expect from Indigo Gaming!

Cruising around "Night City" on "Yaiba" and listening this amazing story of a genre. Thanks for the amazing series!

Anyone still playing this in 2020?

@Indigo Gaming ...just when I thought I leave my first witty comment ever...

It's 2021 now... 🤔

"Acclaimed" Lol

Personally I think Westworld dropped in quality dramatically after season 1, but there's no question that it was well received. 80% or higher on IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes.

I feel less than human sometimes. I have been on my own since i was 14 and had no one. Of course, nobody owed/owes me anything, so it was so hard because even then i wouldnt ask for help. All i had was myself and my dog and my rat. Rat stayed in his litte carrier. Anyhow, the reason i say these things is because in the short, fleeting, extremely rare moments in the 90s where i had a friend who had more friends closer by, we played the cyberpunk role playing game for hours.There were so many aspects of the game that kind kf mirrored my life in many ways. It allowed me create a character even though it was pretty much me, the character was still able to exist within that futuristic world. Im still having horrible issues stemming from bad, uninformed decision i made in my homeless, destitute, early teenage life. But the older role playing game--which back then "Cyberpunk" wasnt a genre, It was the actual name of that role playing game-- probably is what kept me from just giving up permanently and attacking a cop somewhere so i could get my brains shot out by a scared cop. Alot of the base aspects were very relatable. I always sucked at making up missions though lol.

I've watched this video so many times so that now I can hear the same voice in my head whenever I'm reading a cyberpunk novel. An absolute masterpiece of a video.

@Indigo Gaming Not anymore! Man, You need to make an audiobook where you read P.K. Dick, Gibson, and the others. I mean, not for me cause I already have it, but others should have that option to enjoy as well. Perfect voice for the cyberpunk genre in my humble opinion.

Oh I'm so sorry! I thought I was the only one with my voice in my head. 😄

It's a pity, given that this appears to be chronological, that you omitted Captain Power and the Soldiers of the future, given the themes it explored and the controversy surrounding it.

Awesome work.

Socialism creates what it tries to paint a capitalist moral society with. Keep in mind USA isn’t a moral society anymore it’s a fascist society run by the ccp

What about the RPG?

I heard and saw a documentary stating that the turning test was not real

Wikipedia is a great resource, but don't just read the article which can be very misleading, look for and read the sources.

Always question things like that. Look for sources that back up or contradict claims. I even get facts mixed up sometimes in my videos.

moral indifference to a machine.........gosh another thing to feel guilty about........the indoctrination is strong with this one.

The Sky Above The Port Was The Color Of Television Tuned To A Dead Channel

Man, great job! I just missed a ghost in the shell refference... but then I saw the name of the second part.... 🤣🤣

BLADE RUNNER,,,,,,,,,THE GREATEST SCI FI MOVIE OF ALL TIME.

Wow . This video is better than porn

If the porn actors only came once a year... 😆😭

Damn Gibson was lucky...i think writers really should stay tuned.

I just found Roy Batty on top of a building in Cyberpunk 2077, it game me chills to see him sitting there with a dove in his lap.

according to Ridley Scott, Blade Runner was heavily inspired by Fritz Langs Metropolis from 1927. Most of the buildings and Android Themes are borrowed from Langs Movie. This Documentary is far beyond great ! thx Indigo.

Thank you for referencing pkd the god father of sci if

This is basically America now. Amazon, Walmart, Big tech etc more powerful than the government.

I have a better question how is cyberpunk

The british pilot of Max Headroom is such a great watch!

I really enjoyed it. It's weird seeing the remake of the British version in the actual TV show, most of the beats are there, but lost some of its rawness and grit.

Harlan Ellison didn't come up with terms nstor, just the idea of a time travelling soldier..lol

One of the best videos on the internet right here

Thank

That robot does look like 209 from RoboCop

I really felt like ready player one's setting would've fit in to the cyberpunk world

The real world in Ready Player One fits the bill, but the story revolves around the fantasy MMO game primarily, so it's difficult to categorize.

ummm, Cyberpunk just reveals A Possible Future where humanity, yet again, fucked up in a multitude of ways... basically a futuristic version of "Hansel and Gretel "... "V and Silverhand" :D

One of the films that helped to make me...what I am today. Hit me in that spot that would effect me for the rest of my life. 2001. CE3K. Star Wars. Alien.

I like how fallout 4 uses the android theme without the cyberpunk settings. Not that the cyberpunk theme is bad

Fallout 4 is a mishmash of different aesthetics, Minuteman is revolutionary, Railroad is steampunk, BoS is dieselpunk, Institute is a mix of atompunk and cyberpunk. Sadly I think none of them are very in-depth.

This was great and needed to be done, this should be shown in lit classes. Thank you.

You need to remember another book called "I have no mouth and I must scream" about an AI calling itself AM that tortures the last of mankind. It is what I would call the final stage of cyberpunk or the beginning to an end.

Ellison's book was a little on the fence, so I didn't end up covering it. It's incredibly short, but also more of a post-apocalyptic story than cyberpunk.

Fun fact : You can find Syd Mead name in Night City memorial in CP2077 , very classy of CDPR for paying tribute to him.

Yeah just saw that , I'm an artist too (through i can never be as good as him) and people in our line of work don't get much recognition so thank you for that. Can't wait for part 3 and 4

He died while I was producing part 2, and so dedicated that episode to him as well.

Missed two important comics. Enki Bilal was part of same group of artists as Moebius. His Nikopol trilogy was hige visual inspiration for Riddley Scott. And Tamburini/Liberatore's Ranxerox was inspiration for Gibson. Recently Heavy Metal republished it in a complete collection. Teen junkie prostitute and Ranxerox' android she made from a copier' and uses him as enforcer and sex slave. Very grim vision of cyberpunk Rome.

@Indigo Gaming in this clip there are clips from various interviews. Moebius is mentioned for Alien (he also did concept art for Alien and tron) and Enki Bilal https://youtu.be/viaDGF5TI6c I will try to find reference for Ranxerox and Gibson. Btw great documentary. Best I have seen so far on cyberpunk.

You have sources on that? Nikopol was only one book by the time Blade Runner came out, and I haven't seen Gibson mention Ranxerox.

I'm a simple man. I see Alita, I push Like

BLADE RUNNER was the Beginning.

No it wasn't.

Hmmmm

Interesting that Cyberpunk started as a stylish fictional flavoring of sci-fi(which aimed to actually imagine what our real future may become) but managed to predict the future better than the fiction aimed at making legitimate concepts of the future??

Wonderful documentary. Very well done.

This upload warrants a year long sub at the very least. God i hope a fraction of your content is this good

@Indigo Gaming ive watched both. Youre content is fantastic im really glad i found your channel

I've improved a lot in pacing and vocal delivery, but I think a few of my videos are still pretty good. My God Game Documentary and Elder Scrolls documentaries are pretty popular.

This is what I tried to explain in youtube comments to the audience who have not liked the game for days :). This game is a treasure for a generation like me, who grew up with movies and anime like blade runner, akira, ghost in the shell in the 80-90s. It is normal for the materialist-insatiable new generation to criticize this game so much because they did not live in those times. In the 80s we used to complete simple graphic games without details with our imaginations. The reason why we remember the old games so well was that our imagination got us into them. the current generation has two expectations. graphics and effect. They can't use their imagination and get into the game. they think a game consists of only graphics and effects. cyberpunk is a game with depth in my opinion. I wrote in my previous comments, this game will be much better with its updates just like no man's sky. You see the mistake cdrp did when the game is over. the staff allocated for art is ok. but the programmer staff is very small. The style changed a lot after the witcher. It would be better for them to develop the cyberpunk after they released a few small games of this kind and gained experience.

I love this shit and ya

For those that don't know SNOW CRASH, you should know SNOW CRASH.

Two RPGs that heavily influence me as a kid were “Underground” and “Paranoia”, and as far as the show Max Headrome, I remember Max Headrome as front and center of the cyberpunk worlds. I was 10 years old at the time.

"Does a machine like yourself ever experience fear?"

[grunting and kamiyamiya-ing intensifies]

10:32 I wonder if this was intentionally invoked on the cover of the game Xenoblade. The whole world consists of two colossal inert beings upon which all life dwells. One is biological, while the other is mechanical. The cover shot is in a field of grass with the mechanical being towering in the hazy distance.

Future Noir, ghettos, Elves and magic... sounds like the movie Bright on Netflx

It had its issues, but I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. I was especially impressed with Joel Edgerton in that film, I think he really carries the story, and was a sympathetic character.

I loved the movie Personally

A lot of people joked that Bright was the Shadowrun movie we never got.

Hey now, an orbital barge manned by Rastafarians playing Dub music, count me in..( laughs ). Molly Millions is still my girl, cat reflexes, you wouldn't want her as enemy. This was an exceptional brilliant take on this genre, congratulations. Some years ago I reread Neuromancer, and the feeling was different the second time around, I lean more toward Count Zero and Mona Lisa Overdrive. But reading Neuromancer had another curious effect on me, I lost all flavor for science fiction.

I’ve watched this vid several times over the last 6 or 7 months and I didn’t realize how much I was a fan of cyberpunk until the first time I watched it. That and I got into synthwave a few years back and my love of retro aesthetics and alternative sci-fi. The second vid is great to. Keep up the great work.

1983

Loved this documentary. So good.😀

Really well made! By the way: what's the name of the song playing at 25:00?

@Indigo Gaming Awesome. Thank you!

Truvio - De Facto I have a full music credits list in the video description. :)

This has such a GVMERS vibe. Great work, Indigo

Johnny Mnemonic was something too Edit: mentioned around 10:00

I'm digging into Mnemonic more in part 3.

Brilliant up to 15:44 where I'm pretty sure it's not right about the replicants having to compute the solution. Still thumbs up tho' as despite this it's still a great documentary.

how i've been being a cyber punk: play cyberpunk 2077 on pc with blade runner on repeat on my tv for ambiance

Missing tron

Did you watch the whole video? I specifically mention TRON's influence to Neuromancer.

I see a huge amount of artist inspiration in cyberpunk from Johnny pnemonic.

dude? deus ex??????

Dude. Part 1 of 5.

I do think body modifications like this is in the future sometime. If you went back so many years and told those people that 2020 folk are injecting their lips and walking around with fake boobs they would call you crazy too.

Harlan Ellison ... gods I hate that name.

Anyone else sleaze past some black ice to access this data block?

Youll get flatlined talking like that pal.

The matrix in the 80s sci fi is the modern internet, it is everything that is described in that sci fi, the first truly accurate prediction I have heard of

miss Johnny Mnemonic

Akira is so fukken awesome... I watched like 5 documentations about the movie and its production

Some of the best animation of all time. Incredible work!

I never knew ultraman won a Hugo award!!

Don't usually leave comments on videos but holy heck! This is a fantastic documentary you've put together - I really appreciate the level of detail that has gone into this project. Keep up the awesome work.

17:05 what Tyrell represents to Roy is debatable, like many things in the movie. in original theatre release and director's cut Roy says "I want more life, fucker" of big releases only in "final cut" he says "father".

"Father" is definitely more powerful, as it shows a hint of love/admiration for his creator, just as he destroys him. Though I'm on the fence about some of the Director's Cut/Final Cut edits.

Make part 2 and 3

Part 2 came out two weeks ago.

Shadowrun > Cyberpunk

I wouldn’t say ALL sci-fi is optimistic while ALL Cyberpunk is pessimistic. Frank Herbert is the Golden standard to sci-fi and he’s rather pessimistic at times. And Blade Runner showed the good in humanity in a world and beings devoid of such luxuries.

bcctrolling

Blade Runner is not cyberpunk, is technoir, it has nothing to do with cyberpunk at all.

@Indigo Gaming i don't care about that stupid blog.

@Indigo Gaming i just told you why it isn't, cyberpunk is defined in the name itself, cyber and punk, none of the two themes are part of blade runner, that's undisputable.

It's one of the earliest, most genre-defining cyberpunk works, and fits every common definition of the genre. https://screensense.wordpress.com/blade-runner/genre/blade-runner-as-cyberpunk/

any chance on getting the name of that opening intro song?

It's in the video description. 🙂 Insomniac by Matt Large.

Great doco.

Where is the mention of Megazone 23? It predates Bubblegum Crisis by two years and features a simulated reality, motorcycles that can convert into robots, and even a popstar that is an A.I.

Read “Snowcrash”... thank me later!!!

Scream past firing my ancient ,mac 10. Love ya.

Thank you for this documentary series. Very informative. Didn't really know the history and etc. Amazing work. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

So glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching.

Super cool shit hear great dam video

I never realized how rich the history was of Cyberpunk, I've watched about half of these titles and others like them and thought they were just Sci-Fi. Coincidentally I have also heard of Cyberpunk years ago but thought it was just a fashion trend and not a thematic artistic movement. I personally prefer Ghost in the Shell over Akira. I know, Akira is the forefather but Ghost hits a more modern style with its body augmentations.

I'm starting to think this guy likes Shadowrun.

Who else thought this was going to be about cyberpunk the game and how it crashed and burned

You just talked about the history of Cyberpunk and you haven't even mentioned Metropolis. How?

Way to much spoilers for each movie or book. No point in reading or watching them afterwards...
