god, you guys still haven't calmed down? lol I accidentally set off enough butthurt kids to level Arasaka Tower. Hell of a blast, but the edgerunners fanbase didn't even flinch. “Blew Arasaka Tower to smithereens, and it's still standin' there. Just the same.”

• CP2077: ok game, brilliant story. • Edgerunners: a disgrace. Visuals/music are fine, but that writing deserves a firing squad. • Pondsmith isn't sacred. A work is bigger than its creator. • Thanks to the few reasonable people. Kids, homework is waiting. Ciao.

what yesterday's raid on my replies felt like: notifications are still pouring in, but I'm too lazy to reply today. So, once and for all what i'm standing on

lol, looks like X has its own beef: game fans who hate @edgerunners vs crapdefenders. My post kicked that hornet's nest. FYI, i hate Shitrunners not as a fan of the game or its setting, but as a fan of good stories and ideas. I'd have ignored it if not for the legacy behind it.
Having @CyberpunkGame and the entire history of cyberpunk anime to draw from, and then shitting out Edgerunners, is like taking truffles and Wagyu beef and turning them into a gas-station hot dog.

ikr this is pedantic, but a work is bigger than its creator Once published, you no longer control the meanings it creates. People have every right to judge your work, but you don't get to judge them for it. e.g. i'd gladly sentence @trigger_inc to bankruptcy over @edgerunners .
After reading certain posts, I think it's worth reminding everyone of these words: "Who the (bleep) do YOU think you are to tell ME whether or not MY creation was done right or not?" - Mike Pondsmith

Sony deserved its Shonky Award. And again, people weren't fighting for discs themselves. They're outdated. They were fighting to preserve a way to protect their purchases from corporate decisions. It's not discs we need to save. It's the entire approach to digital distribution.

GameFi has embarrassed itself so many times that mainstream audiences have lost all trust. I share their disgust. But here's a rare case where Web3 could actually be useful. Not “buy NFTs and get rich” bullshit, but the principle that digital ownership should be real.
A trophy Sony probably won’t put in the lobby. CHOICE’s 2026 Shonky citation criticises digital-ownership messaging and access terms. We unpack the complaint and separate future plans from completed changes. activeplayer.io/sony-choice-… #PlayStation

Oh, a beef worthy of CT. One grifter couldn't monetize his worthless generic slop, so now he's exposing other grifters for fake engagement. No wonder mainstream audience views crypto with disgust. The Dead Internet is coming. The Braindead Internet is already here. It's CT. 90+%
Crypto Twitter KOLs are a fucking scam. And we have the numbers to prove why. We hired 200+ KOLs with 10M+ combined followers. Every single one had a 400+ Sorsa score and 100+ Smart Followers. Most had 1,000+ Sorsa. 200+ KOLs posted twice each. Our result? 280 NFTs sold at $5. Now let’s talk about this circus. Fake views. Fake likes. AI-generated replies that don’t even understand what the project does. The same fucking accounts liking and replying to each other in engagement groups, recycling engagement and pretending they’re influential. You have 200K followers but can’t prove you have actual buyers. You’re scared of referral deals because deep down you know nobody will click your links, buy anything or convert. YOU HAVE BOTTED FOLLOWERS, NOT INFLUENCE. And the funniest part? You genuinely think you’re marketing professionals. You’re a bunch of engagement farmers playing influencer, selling fake numbers to projects and calling it a career. Our team tested this firsthand. We were ready to pay for influence, but got fucking nothing. And you wonder why CT is dying? Why projects are cutting deals? Why marketing teams are moving to TikTok and Instagram? BECAUSE NOBODY WANTS TO PAY FOR YOUR BULLSHIT ANYMORE. Honestly, go work at McDonald’s. At least you’ll serve people something useful instead of selling projects fake engagement and pretending to be important. 200+ KOLs. 10M+ followers. 280 NFTs sold. That’s your fucking influence.

Last @edgerunners post. I've polluted my X feed with this shit enough already. Edgerunners is a major reason I doubt @CDPROJEKTRED repeat @CyberpunkGame success. It's an embarrassment for everyone involved.

I genuinely didn't think they could make S2 even worse than S1. I figured S1 had already fulfilled its duty as a sappy, generic marketing brochure, leaving the creators more freedom. Apparently, freedom only makes bad creators worse. What a pathetic attempt at complexity.

Fuck, I just finished season 2. So, @edgerunners defenders, how'd you like it? Yum yum? LMAOOOOO

@edgerunners release tonight. Oh damn, I rly hope I’m so wrong about Edgerunners 2. I hope they shot whoever was responsible for the first season’s writing and somehow made this one amazing. I want it to be so good. I just have zero faith that it will be. S1 killed all hope.

For the first time, i’m actually going to express some excitement about this -- but GPT 6.1 has genuinely surprised me, i’m really enjoying it

When there are 100+ armed conflicts happening at the same time, and war is still treated as acceptable under “certain conditions,” that’s a pretty clear sign the system isn’t working.
Peace is far more than the absence of conflict. It's the presence of restraint of power by law. It's the recognition, as enshrined in the @UN Charter, that force cannot be the final arbiter of whose lives, rights & future matter. Amid increasing conflicts around the world, my message to world leaders at #UNGA today: We must defend the Charter without double standards. Protect civilians without exception. Ensure humanitarian access without obstruction. Shield humanitarian personnel without fail. Advance nuclear non‑proliferation & disarmament without delay. And demand accountability without fear or favour.

omg, they gave this fly-brain scan a new body. Even though it’s nowhere near a full brain simulation, it’s still really cool. I just hope this gives a boost to interest in the cyberpunk setting (not shitrunners ofc).

The new Ghost in the Shell is not bad btw. Someone please teach this fly-brain simulation how to write good scripts and send it to @trigger_inc. Maybe @edgerunners 2 will actually have a chance of not being complete ass.

Yes. Which doesn’t mean it will always remain so. We don’t know exactly what gives rise to the emergent quality we call consciousness. But every step in AI development adds another piece to the puzzle and increases the probability of consciousness emerging.
Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas

P.S. Yes, I’m waiting for Edgerunners 2, and yes, I’ll watch it. But I have zero faith that team Kakashi will suddenly change the situation. I fully expect another edition of “Cyberpunk for kids,” where the only adult parts are swearing, tits and gore.
