Hahah! So he's going to depict it as it already is then? I mean, given its horrendous gun crime levels Chicago is already a 'city gone wrong'.

The fact he only began to see how bad California and San Fran are when he actually visited them shows how oblivious these people are. They only watch 'approved' news stations, the ones that ignore the problems in Democrat run places and that only criticise Conservatives.

"We thought that we were like dystopian, but we just touched the surface.”

LOL reality is worse than your dysoptian vision. Tell me you live a sheltered life without saying you live a sheltered life. (I do too, but I openly recognize it...and prefer it that way.)

I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and tent cities are indeed a thing. There was one encampment next to a water reservoir that existed for roughly a year in plain view of a freeway onramp so I would get a taste of Cyberpunk every morning on my way to work without the dehumanizing cyberware implanted into my body. I have a smartphone for that!

A futuristic Chicago sounds kind of cool, I would mention a futuristic Detroit, but that was done well in Robocop.

Well, when Phantom Liberty fucked up the mechanics under the guise of "balancing", it can't be anything but "gone wrong"...

"A chicago gone wrong"

You mean as in the real world Chicago just a few decades from now?

Didn't know this game had a sequel, but hopefully gamers won't be fooled again.
