Shoutout to when a bunch of epic tough as hell right wing culture warriors all pretended they were unable to handle playing GTA because you had to kill cops
the last one is a lie, there are at least 2 missions that require you to toast some pigs in cyberpunk and they're pretty early on iirc
I don't remember ever being forced to kill a cop in cyberpunk, but the game tries its hardest to portray the cops and crime system possible. -all gang members have an active bounty and are known to the cops. Somehow. -cops can magically trace you/hunt you even if your hack is supposed to be untracable -there are solo foot patrol officers just walking around like they were not hated in night city -the protagonist is a fucking bootlicker -police is presented as the unquestionable solution to crime despite being corrups as hell lore wise
I just hate it. The cops are said to be incompetent, but shown to be magically impossibly competent. They are supposed to be understaffed, which is said to be the reason crime is so bad, but then there are thousands just walking around everywhere anyways. They are said to be corrupt as hell and cowards, but their favourite strategy is the zerg rush without any fear for their lives. The game tries so hard to bootlick, it almost wraps around to be a parody again, but one that doesn't fit the tone the game is going for.
Just started an only-INT netrunner and fully 90% of my walking around time is pinging cops to grind netrunning and then melting their skulls with my brain. 10/10 "I'm not touching you" gaming experience.
Elon is a fucking coward. He prefers to commit his crimes behind closed doors.
