Since Cyberpunk 2077 has been somewhat fixed since release, it's been a game that's expanded upon something existential within me. A friend and I love to talk about and speculate over future occurrences-we're both tech nerds-both positive and negative. But through our many discussions, one thing has remained the same; we're both excited and terrified of what's to come. By time the year 2077 rolls around, we'll be in our mid 70s but will that even mean anything? Will aging be a minor inconvenience? What'll happen globally? How will the political landscapes evolve? What sort of technology will be available to all and what will be locked behind a massive paywall? Neuralink is set to enter human test trials this year-sometime within the next ~6 months-assuming FDA approval is given. It's a step in a direction, but which way? Anti-aging tech has had massive investments made over the years. AI and computers are advancing at a somewhat exponential rate. Various space missions are being planned and orchestrated. More people are getting into technology. It seems every year there's some kind of monumental advancement in a niche. Take 3D printers for example. For years, they were exclusively held by companies for companies. Now, for a couple hundred dollars, you can have one for yourself and create whatever you want-within your restrictions of course. I'm thrilled to see what else happens in the following decades, and I wish you all the best of luck!
The old, they say they're looking forward to death. That they're sick of this world, that they've lived enough. And me, I can understand them. I've seen old folks dragging their pains like a burden, feeling lonely and lost in this world that no longer understands them. But there's something else about the old folks. They've seen so much, they've lived so many experiences. Some of them are ready to go, they feel that their life has been full and complete. It's as if they've seen it all, done it all, and there's nothing left for them to discover. Death is their well-deserved rest. They await it like a faithful friend who will finally allow them to rest from all those years of trying to survive. And me, I admire them, because even though death can be scary, they embrace it with courage and serenity. So yes, the old have lived enough. But they also have so much to teach us about life and how to embrace it without being afraid of death. Future is scary
Night City feels like home; walking around the streets, I can almost smell the street cafe's and steam vents! The background chatter and roar of the engines, fills me like the white noise from the humming of my soul. The soundtrack, like music in my head, envelops me like a blanket of familiarity. The city is alive!
@@pear-zq1uj nope. Bet all you did was fast travel. None of the other open world games with a city is as interesting as the dystopian nature of night city. Not in lore. Not in aesthetics. Not in culture.
Im pretty sure mostly everyone here will be in their 70s and 80s by the time this year rolls around. Imagine telling your kids and grandkids you played a game that was that year. I will be 74 when the year finally roles around. Never thought I'd live to see a futuristic year in a game.
This gave me a realisation that i may live up to 2077. I imagined this world, where my 71 yo ass would live, while all my relatives(excapt for kids if they will be) will already be gone. And i will remeber this game and think to myself "So, here i am, 2077..." Guess this will be my only thought, no additional meaning excapt for one: time just flies away so goddamn fast...
Im currently lying on the floor in my backyard, staring at the sky while i rest, since i was working out. Life can be so peaceful and beautiful, i wish i can meet a friend someday who i can sit and watch the sky with for some time. Its been quite a year, lost, meet and talked to ppl i never thought i would again. Im excited for whats to come this next year, scared too, but well, it passes. Amazes me that every comment in this video is a person with their own lives, problems and dreams, even from different countries, the internet is such a thing, i wish nothing but the best to anyone that reads this, if you encounter a problem, you can overcome it, dont be too harsh on yourself too, take care of you, and be stronger each day. Hugs to you 🫂❤
Nothing motivates me more than seeing the advancement of technology. I know a lot of people fear it and what it’ll become, but all I can feel is excitement. The only thing that scares me is not living long enough to be able to use or build or help create anything spectacular. At best I’ll be an old man too far gone to truly be able to enjoy its progress; or I’ll be dead long before that. It’s frustrating. But still, good or bad, however it turns out, I just want to see it for myself.
Same here. One thing about the cyberpunk genre is it it based on a "dystopian" future -- which is purposefully made to be depressing. I think that is why there are so many billowing smoke stacks in the game and most of the cars still appear to be gasoline/diesel based. That is quite a shocker given already agreed upon international goals by leading economies with regards to curbing climate change -- where 2035 and 2050 are key dates to know. But who knows what happens in the future. Especially with politics and the petroleum industry's collective tight leash around many politician's necks. California Governor Gavin Newsom even declared recently that there are no two larger forces on Earth than (1) mother nature and (2) the extremely wealthy petroleum industry.
This made me think about myself some years ago, i was a teenager just looking old photos of avenues it was a strange feeling, wonder if in a near future some kiddo will look at present photos and feel the same i did back then, imagine yourself walking in the road you use nowdays but its changed, their escence still there but you dont recognize any store or sign from your youth, must be strange.
I would love to just wander around NC with a VR headset soaking in the sights and sounds of this world. I have always wanted to be immersed in this kind of world. With all of the sounds, smells and the tech around me. I have been a cyberpunk junkie ever since I first read Gibson's work of art "Nueromancer".
One day I'm gonna wake up in 2077, and think, "Good morning... night city?" I will be 75 years old. I will be older than most of my relatives, time will feel stretched, and who knows. I may even struggle just to get out of bed. Honestly, will I even be alive by 2077? It makes you wonder.
smh just realized that I'll be also 75 by then. At this rate, Elon's personal conglomerate (formed by all his venture companies) might become the Arasaka of the future. We might be witnessing the birth of the largest megacorp that will ever exist (containing Tesla, SpaceX, Open AI and Neuralink). Heck, even Starbase (SpaceX's personal town and space port) might become the Night City of our timeline.
@@BannenAngelos I would love a glimpse of how the world will look in 100, 200 and 500 years - though, as of now I am somewhat doubtful that humanity will still be the same as it is now.
I'd love to see how that year will be in real life but then again growing old is something i never really planned on doing, life at 70+ is absolutely awful. Seeing your body deteriorating day by day and risking of losing yourself with dementia? Fuck no.
Music ambiance is so enjoying staring at stars at night... the last time i've felt relieved during listening was while listening to Deus Ex soundtracks.
Reminds me of Tron in a way. I played cyberpunk the day it came out. Took the whole weekend. It crashed 19 times (literally) but I beat it. I’m still playing it. It’s so fun
Seeing cyberpunk and listening to the music of such a vibe, my brain unconsciously creates that “future” world. I think my fantasies would last for a whole book, oh yes, that's a super idea
I saw this city in my games and in my dreams. A techno world of steel, concrete, holograms, and neon. I made a promise to myself that I would live in a city like this. I set out with grit and determination. Working like a madman in everything I could get myself into. It was bitter and difficult. But after years of blood sweat and tears. Finally I was able to clone myself. I transferred my ID, Memories, and Experience into a younger form. I was 76 when this happen. My organs were old my body had reached its limits. Mear rags on a hopeful soul. But still, my city was nowhere in sight. 2077 went by. 2088 went by. 2152 went by. Again and again, I cloned myself. Each time storing a backup somewhere deep and cold. It was in the year of the Gregorian calender 2215 that final I arrived at Mekacity. One of many massive structures in the now Terran Worlds Union. They turned that Mexican desert into a concrete jungle of lights and technology. Machines everywhere you looked. Cyborgs and Androids ruled the streets. Massive towers stretched to the stars holding all manner of crops, and animal life. Gigantic AntiHydrogen facilities powered this labyrinth. Everything could now lift off the planet's surface. People could fly. Cars, Motorcycles, Boats- you name it all forms of transportation were no aloft in the air. Yet streets much like the old world still remains and are still stretched out. It was beautiful. Nightcity I am here.
Til the day you find out there are many clones look exactly like you. And your memory is just a template to keep synths like you emotional stable enough to work till they expire...
Man..this reminds me of the mission where judy ask of u can snorkel with her and find a lost city and then she tells you shes leaving town and she goes inside and your just standing out their gazing at the sun set in the middle of nowhere
I'm so thankful I can't even explain it. I had to work on a presentation about radioactivity in my physics class (and at first it was sooo boring). But only a few days after the topics have been handed out, I discovered this playlist. And since then I *loved* working on the presentation which is so confusing bc I really hated this class :') In the end I got an A and idk how the heck I did this but I know without u I would've NEVER been able to achieve this. Thanks
Just the thought of being able to experience what this time period could be is giving me goosebumps. there are so many possibilities and outcomes that are yet to come, the future is scary indeed if you overthink it to much on the other hand I will be most excited to see what the world will offer to us and what humans could be capable of in the future, but till this day will come we all have plenty of time to fulfill ourselves and enjoy the moment we are living right now life is a miracle in itself and being able to experience it is the greatest joy we could ever experience.
i like the music, the party, and the roof top, lot of inspiration and sadness.. wishing cyberpunck was co op or had a terrorist hunt mode for mindless combat that would be realyy "Nova"
Cyberpunk the game they said would fail. I pre ordered the game and when I started playing I loved the game and played it through all the hate and the game just got better throughout updates. To me cyberpunk is a game with a beautiful story and atmosphere. It one of the only games that made me emotional at the endings and to that I give it a great credit as most game endings seem cut and dry now adays.
bro, when the credits rolled for the first time for me, it was like... 3 or 4 AM? That was absolute emotional destruction with the calls of the characters I'd met throughout the game lmao. I really love this game though
I followed this game since 2013. I knew the game would be great 2 years after its release, and that was the best decision I made. I played the game the first time in Oct 2022. With all the mods, it is a perfect game for me.
Don't know what your age will be by the year 2077 arrives, 60, 70 sum like that, I actually look forward to what's gonna happen in the future. Is it gonna be exactly the same as cyberpunk? Where as those people got their implants? Gun shooting every where, police all over the place, I mean everything is possible right?
