      Well said; you bring up the really awesome point that is how much can we actually attribute to the chrome as opposed to the cyberpsycho’s state of mind? It seems to me that cyberpsychosis is regular psychosis, induced by stress, but having chrome allows for the ability to cause large amounts of damage

      No it's not... 1. You get a cyberpsycosis hack in the game.
      2. The augments are designed to fail causing Malfunctions.
      3. It's affecting their brain but not making the psychological issues.
      4. A.I./Arasaka/Biotechnica and Night Corp. Are actively manipulating hundreds of people.

      as well as what the other 2 said, the chrome puts addtional stress on your neural-system/mind which makes a mental break far more likely the more chrome you have, which also explains the extreme mental fortification training people require to weld military grade chrome.
      Adam Smasher is a sociopath to begin which would ironically, given his particular psychosis, have the effect of being able to weld all the tech with no obvious effect, in effect being a high-functioning cyberpsycho (like a self-aware narcissist is able to better control themselves and able to hide/mask their psychosis).

      True; David is described by the creators as having a one-in-a-million resistance to cyberpsychosis. It’s also explained by David having what’s known as a high humanity stat, which is super important to the tabletop cyberpunk game. David was able to find friends/comrades and even a girlfriend despite his life completely changing and him losing his mom.

    The information in our videos complement each other really well! It’s clear that everything is not as is seems with cyberpsychosis, being a term that benefits corporations and perpetuates a system with corpos at the top. It’s possible cyberpsychosis is induced by something or someone. It’s also possible cybernetics are designed to fail, forcing people to buy more products to avoid “side effects.”

      My take on this is that it's not necessarily the chrome itself that causes cyber psychosis, but a mix of vulnerability to CyPsy, the kind of chrome you get, how you get it, what medication you take and how good your ripperdoc is. The natural vulnerability aspect to CyPsy should be selfexplanatory, some can take more than others. In the game it's stated that CyPsy is the result of too much chrome overloading your brain, so depending on what kind of chrome you get, this burden is higher or lower. In the anime there's medication to keep you from going full CyPsy, so my thinking is that you get some type of medication to get it installed, another type of meds for the healing process and as far as my medical knowledge goes you'll probably need some to keep the chrome in your body without it being rejected. Depending on the skills of your ripperdoc you may need more or less medication during install and healing, also the quality of medication is influenced by the ripperdoc. And then, depending on if he did a good job connecting everything to your nervous system, that may also make you more prone to get CyPsy.

    According to the TVTropes page on the original Tabletop game, cyberpsycosis can result in a myriad of severe mental health issues. it's just that "guy goes into catatonic state due to implants" gets a lot less press than "guy goes on a killing spree due to implants".

    I believe the truth lies in the middle.
    There are real cases of cyberpsychosis like Lizzy Wizzy or Maelstorm (e.g. bloody ritual), but there are also probably cases where someone deliberately turned someone into a cyberpsychopath (as in Sandra's papers, after all, we can do it ourselves during the game if we have the right program).
    There are also cases like Smasher where he was a psycho from the start and not murdering everything around just because Arasaka keeps him on a leash and drugs.

    Always had a theory that cyberpsychosis is rooted in trying to get the brain to do things, that it wasn't originally designed for. There's no neural connections or layouts for 'mantis blades' or anything else in that ball of neural goop, that now has all sorts of external wiring integrated into it. So the trigger for utilizing all that chrome may be 'borrowing' or prioritizing connections for existing things that work differently, which is causing people to short out, in a sense. All these neat abilities, and a biological teetering scaffold to plug it all into that doesn't exactly work with machine-like precision, so its a cascade failure at some point.

      As a medical condition as defined in the game, it's probably nowhere near as common as shown in game. Most of those 'CPs' are people having violent psychotic episodes, true, but in-game lore supports the idea that other stresses than the cybernetics pushed them over that edge.

  • @jacobhuff3748

    I tend to see it as an umbrella term since the Cyberpunk universe is dystopian corporatocracy with governments either being as corrupt or incompetent. There might be cases where sudden & rapid augmentation could be the main cause but those are rare and usually lacked any post operation support or follow up. Most likely the corporations and gov't didn't do a thorough job when studying how cyberware(especially some models or types of cyberware) might negatively affect people because they had their own agendas when pushing for it so no follow up on how cyberware could affect soldiers or civilians and who would try 50 years later when cyberware is major industry with other side industry. Combine this with a dysfunctional society with poorly managed safety nets at best and the "cyberpsychosis" just covers a multitude of mental health issues that accrue from a bad life and the effects of cyberware usage or abuse.

    There is a note in one of the Cyber Psycho sightings, I think the one with a netrunner/researcher woman and a few turrets. The note is mostly about the cyberpsichosis condition. She explicitly talks about the "silent cyber psychos" - those with just a minor augment - that might not even have weapons. And how they gradually withdrawal from the real world.
    In that memo, her hypothesis is that cyberpsychosis is a condition that "blurres the lines between the real world and imagination". It just so happens that fully chrormed out, violence-inclined dudes with weapons that don't know what's real end up on a killing spree. While a bum with a replacement kneecap ends up just secluding himself from society.

    With the Nomad lifepath, you can find and reveal to Meredith Stout that the Flathead was marked to be "L.O.A.", which is made perfectly clear in the Nomad beginning that a package is specifically going to be *Lost* On Arrival. Stout's competitor specifically made it available to Brick, for whatever reason. If the Maelstrom attack on a Militech convoy actually happened, the transport with the bot was probably last in the convoy, the security forces were possibly manipulated into a rotation of positions that left that transport most vulnerable, and as soon as it got stopped, the rest of the convoy was probably told to go full throttle and evacuate, leaving the others behind.
    The cyberpunk world is already an extremely stressful environment, having multiple ongoing environmental disasters, and a power structure that's a Libertarian's dream, in that corporations can essentially freely exert extraordinary amounts of political and military power, to the point of declaring any attempt at Labor organizing to be legally considered anti-corporation terrorism, with expedient execution by police sub-contractors to be perfectly acceptable.
    Desperation is the desired state of the public from the point of view of Finance and Corporate management, because it results in lower wages, longer work-weeks, and an essentially disposable workforce.

    Don’t have a particular theory for the in world Cyberpsychosis, but on a personal theory and example, there’s only 4 times that V sees Maxtac in game. Once at the beginning, with Jackie, once after dealing with the Psycho on the Pier, and of course, Rory after the Jinguji incident.
    The last time, or second/third time depending on your play-thru, is totally dependent on you, the player, not V. You choose, typically out of boredom or something else “I’m gonna kill everyone, see how far I can get with MaxTac.” You’re the itch in the back of the mind. You’re Joshua Graham “I had a gun, and I didn’t like how they looked at me” You look at Royce and think he’s an asshole, but revel when you storm Arasaka Tower alone, in the Fear the Reaper ending. Those security forces are just regular people, they didn’t do anything to you. They’re doing their jobs.
    V, and you as the driving thoughts, go through hell and back, as a sense of progression, but at the end of the day, you’re the high functioning Psycho.

    one thing that is often over looked is the dissociative effects of cyberware. To someone that already has a disposition for mental issues the augmentation of their physical and mental self can push that dissociation up. Think of it like this. If you already have trouble fitting in, having intrusive thoughts, and impulsive actions then being made less human while gaining extra human abilities will have an impact. Now your not just feeling that your an outsider people actually start to have a reason to treat you as an outsider. Your intrusive and impulsive thoughts carry more weight then you can actually do them. If your thought was man it would be wild if I could toss a car becomes less a fantasy and more a real possibly if you got a lot of body augs. And this can also help explain why the gang and specials groups have a stabilizing factor. You gain a space were you fit in. if you all are borged out and aggressive your actions will not cuase judgement as much and just be accepted by your group.

    it seems to be multifaceted. cyberpyschosis is something that can be inflicted on others but it is a catch all term for any violent behaviour by those with implants.
    the society in Cyberpunk is to the point that there is very little meaning or connection in life aside from consume and die.

    Something I found in Cyberpunk 2077 on the shard 'The Truth about Cyberpsychosis' resonated the most with me:
    "[...]
    With supreme confidence, I can confirm this illness is, indeed, a by-product of the modern lifestyle and the obsessive emphasis placed on incorporating modern tech into our lives. Although cybernetic implants can directly affect our brain chemistry, they still serve only as a catalyst for the onset of the disease.
    Our world is subject to extensive dehumanization. We surround ourselves with increasingly more automated machines and artificial intelligences. Our loved ones replace their nature-given eyes, lips and faces with masks of metal. Some of us begin to lose sight of what is human; we slip into feelings of total alienation and deep-rooted panic. We lose the ability to distinguish between what is real and what is "only" artificial, digital, synthetic... Such people begin to isolate themselves, lose their empathy for others, and undergo dramatic mood swings that exhibit sadistic tendencies. The most frightening component to all of this, however, is that most will never be diagnosed.
    Not all cyberpsychos are known war veterans or former mercenaries equipped with Sandevistan reflex tech. Not all will go out in a blaze of gunfire with MaxTac. Many cyberpsychos in our world possess only a single implant; a knee, a liver. They are unseen, unnoticed. They lock themselves up and shut out their friends, colleagues, and loved ones. The world outside of the Net and their delusions has disappeared from conscious thought. They are sick and alone - and no is doing a thing about it.

    I've talked about this before with my group and I do think that Cyberpsychosis, is real, but also widely misunderstood in game.
    I have always thought that the idea of the cybernetics themselves driving one crazy is a shaky idea without some additional explaining, and I know from my forays into psychology and sociology that there can be many sides to the dice. so my first guess for someone going cyberpsycho is numbness. Like killing, which is traumatic, losing body parts is traumatic, and in a society where both things are normalized, this leads to a psychological state of trauma in the persona (which is bad) to seem normal, (which is worse then the state itself) after observing MGSV:TPP, I note that one of the major points in it is loss, loss of friends, loss of limbs, loss, and the (phantom) pain. thus I would geuss first that the reason why someone would go CyberPsycho is because of an already unstable personality (low humanity score) that has suffered from both consistent killing and constant swapping of body parts. one of the things I note in Davids (and Maines) case is that they start suffering from symptoms of Cyberpsychosis, (shaky hands, hallucinations, lost time) when they hit a certain level of cybernetics and that apparently one ca downgrade the level of the cyberware to gain back their humanity.
    I can't exactly explain how that would work, but I can note that the symptoms are probably the fault of ones brain interacting wrong with the cyberware, that is, ones brain, when one enters psychosis, is not interpreting signals and in the way it was before. which makes it look like the persons suddenly gone from normal to abnormal. the difference between standard, hallucinating, probably murderous psychos (lookin' at 'chu zsasz from batman) and cyberpsychos of the same state, is that cyberpsychos have cybernetics which are inadvertently causing the trauma to get worse, (and I don't mean because of faulty parts, I just mean that the person having swapped out ganic parts for cyber parts is causing that trauma to exacerbate their unstable mind), and also make it easier for the Psycho in question to, oh, I dunno, go on a massive killing spree. who knows what shit they are seeing, david saw guns, maine saw black blocks in a desert road, but whatever it is, they wanna destroy it.

    I think an important point to make here, is that a "cyberpsycho" can become psychotic even without any chrome. The Cyberpunk RED Sourcebook states that when your Empathy (Humanity) stat drops below 1, you go "Cyberpsycho", but it does also state that you can lose Empathy (Humanity) through traumatic experiences. You do not necessarily need ANY chrome (cybernetics) to actually become a "cyberpsycho"--realistically, a cyberpsycho is someone who was just pushed over the edge of humanity and has lost their ability to empathize with themselves or other people. They also just happen to not be 100% organic material. But, I am sure some are. Look at the world we live in today.

    I think Cypherpsychosis is real, but it's similar to real-life psychosis in that very few people understand it properly. I doubt it is just "get too much chrome= go crazy". Pretty much every CyberPsycho has some sort of external issue in addition to whatever implants they may possess. That tells me that implants alone don't make the average person go into such a state. Though we're still unsure as to why implants may quicken the process... maybe some sort of... compatibility issue if we're going with tech speak? Though my guess would be quickening of the neural processes, including the harmful (aka psychotic) ones.
    You can use the CN-07 case as an outlier, of course, and any psychological analysis and study will have those.
    So, I think the condition exists, it's just vastly misunderstood and maybe overdiagnosed. It's quite the parallel, if you want to go deep with it. :P

      It’s an established fact that in the Cyberpunk universe, cybernetics do, to some degree, disconnect the user from being their “human self”. So, when you combine external stressors WITH the dissociation from cybernetics, it becomes explosive.
      And a place like Night City is full of external stressors.

    It totally ignores the possibility of regular psychosis, which wouldn't be surprising in this world of crime, drugs, and apparent lack of healthcare and general care.

      The way I see it, it’s more like cyberpsychosis *stacks on top of* regular psychosis. It’s a well-established fact within Cyberpunk’s lore that cybernetics *do* impact your connection to the “human self” even in stable individuals.
      So, being loaded on top of cybernetics doesn’t light the wooden pile of flame ablaze by itself. It just means that if something lights that fire, it’s gonna explode.
      And Night City has an abundance of things to light that flame with.

    It's well established that the technology doesn't directly make the augmented mad. It's the gradual loss of their humanity and heightened abilities that make them so capable of carnage.

  • @jasondolph2785
    @jasondolph2785 ปีที่แล้ว

    I mean... This is an interesting conversation of course, but being real, it's a game balance mechanic for the TTRPG with an in-universe justification. It's real because the game mechanics tell us that it is. Would this even be a discussion if the base game of 2077 had included the mechanic? It's kind of like Shadowrun having the weird character "Jake Armitage" due to the SNES version of the game not causing essence loss from installing cyberware. Due to how the game played out, he was able to be both a shaman and a decker, but in the TTRPG the essence loss mechanic is there specifically to force you to either be a magical character or a chromed one, with physical adepts using bioware as a weird middle point, but they're basically achieving cyberware builds with a magical frame in most builds anyway. I doubt any Shadowrun fan would ever question if essence loss is real though, even if that game had somehow been an SNES era megahit.

  • @NuclearMolotov
    @NuclearMolotov ปีที่แล้ว

    The way it was basically explained to me and the way I explain it to others is that cyberpsychosis is an inability to relate with normal human beings.
    When you no longer have to worry about basic human functions like eating or sleeping, you begin to find the same behaviors in other humans as annoying or even disgusting, pushing you into sociopathic behavior. Only a strong connection to one's humanity can prevent eventual cyberpsychosis. That's also why one of the most effective treatments for cyberpsychosis is to use reimplanted cloned organs.
    Essentially it is real, but it does affect everyone differently based on their own particular dispositions.

  • @shogomakishima7224
    @shogomakishima7224 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think there are two types of cyberpychos:
    1. People who got hacked by a net runner or rouge AI
    2. Chrommed up people who went insane due to social issues and/or drug usage. Those are not the real "Cyberpsychos" but the society lumps them together with real ones because it is easier to kill them off instead of providing therapy.
    The anime on the other hand shows cyberpsychosis as an result of injecting too many implants. In other words the anime is not in line with the game.

  • @kbo8029
    @kbo8029 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yeah, I think just like in the real world people use a term which has a fairly specific meaning as a pejorative.
    Cyberpsychosis is heavily based on irl conditions and is medically sound within the setting. Psychosis is a specific disassociative state yet people with antisocial personality disorder might seem like it when they're incapable of considering the rights and values of others or the realistic consequences of their actions but clinically are not dissociated.
    In the setting you might call someone who is fully lucid but has ASPD up the wazoo like Adam Smasher a cyberpsycho even though they are not technically in psychosis as an expression of disgust.
    Its definitely real in the setting because we're told it is. But I definitely think there's merit to saying how misunderstood or misapplied it is both by in universe characters and within the fandom.

  • @wizardcat7654
    @wizardcat7654 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think its both. Cybernetics would have MANY consequences on the body. Some brought up in game through shards and dialouge. As far as cybernetics causing people to go phsyco. It is more complicated than yes or no. People snap under pressure, of course you have devious people who do dirty crap, ect. Sometimes I think cybernetics are just present and not neccisarily the cause. But people view it as though its focused on the cyberware causing it. This is a world where most people seem chipped or augmented in someway. The average NC citizen, maybe not as much as mercs, gangers or corpos, but still. Just as in our world people go nuts sometimes under pressure. Cybernetics is something I wish the game explored a bit more and what it does to you. Its why I like the simple cyber phsycosis mod. Though that mod does indacte the inpact cybernetics has as mental drawbacks, linked to the cybernetics as opposed to traumatic events. Which I think would be more accurate. I think the impact cyberwar has is more physical than mental. Perhaps brain augmentations are different though. Screwing with the chemicals.

    Its a society who's basically a isolated city due to the AI's.
    Everyone is exploited and oppressed and while climbing the corporate ladder does give some security, mostly it just gives nerve wrecking stress and impossible decisions to screw your brain even more.
    Its no wonder that when humans get a semblance of power (like being capable of lifting a car, or shooting bullets from their fingers) they completely snap and bite back at the world around them that was eating them alive.
    To give a very extreme example:
    If you take a random person and ensure everyone around that person will ensure they have a miserable life, never handing them anything, stealing their stuff, even physically abusing them.
    What do you think happens when one day you give them a gun?
    They sure ain't gonna bring it to the police or only use it in self defense during a life of death situation.
    They are going to "solve" the problems that have made their life miserable.
    It has nothing to do with implants or machines either, apply this to a medieval setting with magic.
    The humans who eventually get access to magic will get more bold, and those that get magic strong enough will eventually snap and use that magic to erase what has been harming/pushing them.
    And those at the top in the Cyberpunk world itself won't do anything about it, as Cyber-psychosis is a nice chain on the populous.
    Why classify it as a regular psychological trauma and pay for therapy if you can exploit it?
    keeps them afraid, keeps many from giving themselves more upgrade's to prevent going psycho.
    And those that do go psycho don't get help, but are simply executed ("stopped" to defend the citizens.)

Now that V's mind is the only mind in his body his body is now rejecting him and killing him. BUT if the relic did all of that with Johnny's engram on. Wouldn't the relic just start to change V's body back to being compatible with V's mind since it's just V's engram on the relic now. So aka V shouldn't be dying in most of the endings unless I'm understanding that wrong?

    the medical definition of psychoses use to be an individual who adverted extreme behaviors retaining threw sociopathic behaviors. (a person with skisophrenia, now multuple personality disorder. or a persons who separates themselves from the sociological normalities. even to that of individuals with bipolar disorder where they forget everything as emotions, feelings, ideas or thoughts from the other by a rejective defensive natures. and so-on). However in todays world a psychotic behavior or experience is referred to an individual who experiences a deviated or alternate interpretations of reality that differs from everyone else around them. so all the civilians doing their daily lives going to work, in an earth aftermath with no cows and where it is illeagle to have pinapple on pizza, that is their normal. them seeing and precieving someone even if common by parrent future stastics as a regular thing you have to remember the population for night city is nearly the 400 million count past the blade runner era, 25x the populatoin of the greater los angeles area. and building toward the judge dread era. where LA is near 2274 roberies, 490 rapes, and 224 murders a year avg 2022 fbi stastics. we dont have superclass H buildings yet, and with earth quakes ect we probably never will in california that is, if it doesnt fall into the ocean by then. but point being, current day thats .00049% of the populatoins and about 4.6% for most crimes where the majority of liklyness is rape. and those are accounted events. not the ones that arnt accounted for or marked as something else. so the actuality of those number is more like .01% and 12.4% over all. and thats today. that means walking around in LA once every 43.8 days you most likly witnessed 1 or more crimes weather you realize it or not. where the stastics in night city is 12.4% heavy crimes and 30.2% for common crimes, where you think they get those numbers humm? so when a common joe or corpo lawyer screams bloody murder, it is what it is, that the preception from the normal for the act taking place. for the general NPC termonology classificatonis of CyberPhsycosis.

      so the question isnt IS cyberpsychosis real? : but, is it labled cyberpsychosis, or authentic cyberpsychosis.... ie, is that indvidual having actual loss of control of mental facilities. as the prevelant deturants, isnt is his/her/its brain being hacked: but are they no longer capable functioning normality within society, as the individual isnt the judge the masses are. IE is V's chrome dome head what stopped the low caliber bullet, and the pressure on the cerebullum caused a tramatic brain injury and everything he hears is a false representations of reality as he goes on mass murderous killing spree for all these individuals who he thinks are fixers and that he is working for Dex Deshan one of the greatest and last real fixers in night city who has only recently resurfaced and came out of hidding. if so, the entire game is V's own mental cognitions of his perspective reality and created sociopathology to comprehend and fight the acceptance of reality. then cyberpsychosis is very real. making V #1 at the top of the chart, and explaining why everyone screams and runs from him for using any technology in public sight. is it possible, the relic is dead... and V refuses to pull it out because his perception of reality is he will die if it is taken out. maybe vic wanted to take it out, and in V's temporary blackouts had a tantrum and refused to let him take out the damaged relic shard. why misty is so forthcomming about allowing her friend to move toward accepting silverhand or push him away, threw the humanistic approach oppose to forcefully taking it out of him, because they need their work licenses and care about him.

      another intresting example is breaking the 4th wall. like deadpool after taking the infinity gautlet from thanos, learned what a roast is and gave back the gauntlet, but in the process became aware of all the viewers. and why deadpool often talks and referances things dirrectly to the watchers. because he knows they are there. another aspect of potential cyberpsychosis, is we the players taking over the npc in their ai life script. as there are different forms of artifical lives in the game, even if in the base presect of scripted code. they might not be bionic but they are tangabally artifical threw the screen, and keyboard, as their times and days to by in a loop of each and every player who plays the game. making we the players the outside source the arasaka is trying to control, and we take over from an early stage, even before V has any implants or the relic, and the mental conditon to his/her/its own understanding is already broken from considered normalizations. and the mental instability has already commenced from the start. the wondering nomand who lost their whole family, the drug attic corpo in the office, or even the street kid returning after loosing everything in atlanta. so step 1, the indiviual is having a moving transitions, which is psycologically the number 1 stressful event a human being experiences. a simple move of housing produces more stress resonating images than; being held captive, having someone elses kid, loosing your job, and fullfill an addictions. ect ect ect. add multiuple factors into the same preset, that called the overload compendium, and the opposite of peace within maslows higherarchy of needs.
