I really hope we can see the Crystal Palace in the future but for now hope you guys enjoyed the little lore vid on space and stuff!
I'd love to go grab some old Zetatech stuff.
I would prefer Elon to do the cat girls first.
Also the crystal palace seem to be based on neuromancers freeside
The high riders also sound like they are ripped directly from the Rastafarians from zion space station in neuromancer the fact that they are both rarely angry and African descent is even more telling
CDPR announced they're working on a sequel. The projects codename is Orion, since that names related to outerspace I'm betting we're gonna get to see the Crystal Palace. We'll have to wait a while though to find out.
*Now this was a piece of the lore I am interested in for sure.* But why does Cyberpunk space exploration feels like Mass Effect before they meet aliens 😮
Maybe Mass Effect was inspired by the original CP RPG? Or they all have similar ideas for space travel adventures
@@WiseFish Didn't think about that. I forget how old Cyberpunk lore is sometimes
It does seem like mass effect before aliens doesn’t it? Mass effect definitely took a lot of inspiration from CP, even having a nightclub being the center for mercs ran by a queen bee. Definitely a cyberpunk reference. Both franchises are great.
@@WiseFishThe cyberpunk lore was written before mass effect. The first mass effect came out in 2007.
Video games have been inspired by tabletop games for decades. R. Talsorian Games Cyberpunk has been one of the only torchbearers for the genre, especially as it went through it's 20 year dormancy.
Edit: Also, do not forget that the grandaddy of space RPGs was Traveller from 1977.
Dungeons and Dragons was more well known but Traveller is a hard science fiction space opera. Also note that Starfield has a lot of Traveller inspiration in it, per Todd Howard's own admission. So, tabletop RPGs are still inspiring video game developers.
After the mention of “angels”, I would not be surprised that in the ending where V is invited to rob the Crystal Palace, in fact it was an invitation to join the ranks of these “angels”.
What an epic ending that would be. I'm just going to pretend that this is what happened
The invention of gigantic mass drivers for science and exploration... then having them almost instantly weaponized is a very fitting tale for humanity.
The idea of dropping a giant rock into the ocean near your enemies and causing unforeseen damage to their population is tragically hilarious.
"If you don't stop im going to drop this rock in the ocean, I swear to god"
Warfare went from slinging rocks to slinging missiles to slinging rocks again
@@basileusgaming7047I mean aren’t missles large explosive rocks
@@basileusgaming7047 Look at the big rock the wiped out the dinosaurs, and the after effects it had.
Amerimutts getting humiliated after their arrogance is always satisfying
I'm crying laughing so hard XD
Im surprised orbital advertising isn’t around, as it was even considered in reality
One of those things where the real world is scarier than fiction
@@s7robin105 eh, it was made universally illegal almost immediately after suggest it, luckily
Sounds like a quick way to cause international conflict. Militech having any presence over Japan's sky or Arasaka over NUSA
@@UCannotDefeatMyShmeatany source on this?
@@randomguyonyoutube4833
Wikipedia Space Advertising History.
No one:
The USA: " starts beef "
Realistic ngl
Yeah, some things never change I guess 😅
They were building an O’Neil cylinder? Jesus Christ that’s pretty impressive actually
They were on their second one by 2025 and by 2077 I wouldn’t be surprised if there were many more like in the gundam franchise. As grimdark as cyberpunk often is, it’s also a timeline with a bright future and lots of potential.
@@Nimbus118the Cyberpunk universe makes a clear statement that amazing technology does not bring with it a utopian paradise without guidance and moderation.
It shows what happens when humanity goes too far in one direction, letting the engrained needs of power, hatred and corruption feed off the bounty of progress rather than be tamed by it.
It is well depicted in fiction that humanity can go down hill tho it is often linked with an idea of regression or downfall. Cyberpunk instead shows what happens when humanity goes off the deep end yet does not actually collapse, finding a second stable regime of existence where it can evolve despite getting stuck away from the usual utopian society that they perhaps attempted to create
@@mobiuscoreindustriesI think of it akin to Star Trek, if they never adopted the meritocratic ideology of the Federation, never abandoning the ways of capitalism.
@@CodexQuinn Fucking capitalism...
I like how Cyberpunks space exploration is a giant metaphor for crabs in a bucket. Nobody wants anybody else getting out if they cant. Realistically with the advanced weapons and cybernetics humans have in 2077 like the Sandevistan and armor implants, monowires and mantis blades and arm rockets, humans would be pretty much unstoppable if aliens showed up.
they are mid space ages if alien would visit they would at least be the same tech around mid to maybe late space ages or early interstellar ages which is a bit worse because they might have ftl tech and better tech that existed in mid to late space ages just saying humanity might put a good resistance but alien could win
The Mass Relays that we see in Mass Effect are most definitely not any type of mass driver. If you look at the physics, the Mass Relays are much closer to the warp field we see in Star Trek.
Was thinking this as well
"It has mass in the name so mass driver"
5 minutes on the wiki would answer this question lol
Being someone who was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro and seeing that by 2023 or something the city was destroyed by Militech and Arasaka gives me a pretty weird feeling of bewilderment, joy, and irkment lmao Especially since it appears that the city was still about in 2077 (if you play a Corpo you can see that there was an attack on the 'Saka Tower in Rio).
Makes me wonder how the rest of Brazil and South America are doing by the time of V. From what it appears, at least my city was turned into an Arasaka outpost in my country... Which makes me even more curious to know what befalls the city in the Crystal Palace ending, where Arasaka is destroyed by V and Johnny's attack.
It was probably rebuilt as a Neo Rio or something like that. Arasaka is not destroyed, it's way too big to fall. They are first and foremost a financial/ banking system and security forces. They influenced creation of New Yen. They have the most powerful military in the world, operate several super carriers and have nukes that could destroy half the world in 15 min. Arasaka is gonna be fine
It makes sense that it would be an outpost of a Japanese company. Paraná has one of, if not the largest, concentrations of ethnic Japanese outside of Japan. My ex-wife's family were telling me that there were families there that still would worship the emperor as a god after ww2.
You should run a school , a school of wise fish .
Very clever!
incredible detailed lore vid again! Definitely my #1 favorite lore channel on TH-cam. Well played!
Thanks dude you’ve always been so supportive and were supporting me right from the start!!
I found the whole US NASA starting a war with ESA for zero reasons and zero pay off and zero claim zero aggression and rational (I mean it's a shopping mall in space) to be just bad writing and one of those situations where the Cyberpunk writers just needed an excuse to create more random chaos to drive their dystopian world they built.
The US would exactly do this...why did you guys invade Iraq?
@@ravanpee1325 mostly oil. And we carried through with the attack. This is more of a move that a lil brat on a playground or a very mentally ill dictator would pull. I'm going to attack your hotel in space... Wait I'm sorry. Gtfo. It's lazy writing to fit a narrative where things constantly fall apart.
@@ravanpee1325Simple, oil.
@@ravanpee1325Oil. It was a selfish reason, but still a reason. This war is literally just pointless. Wars tend to happen for material reasons. The USA is warmongering, but there's always a method behind the madness. This is like claiming a character in a story can do whatever they want to with the justification "Oh they're just insane, so it doesn't matter". "Oh this country is just warmongery, so it doesn't matter"
Also, bold of you to assume OP lives in the US
@@pancakes8670 People have gone to war for less. This was an Act of pride. The US losing the Space Race after all these years, in the end is a crippling blow for US Morale. And refused to let it happen. It was an attack of passion.
Maybe one day we will see a cyberpunk game centered around space exploration! Who knows.
E.Y.E Divine Cybernancy is a space cyberpunk game where you play as a cybernetically enhanced soldier that is sent to missions on other worlds in a cyberpunk setting where mega corporations own star systems and employ their own private military force. The game is based on the source engine and I think the game is pretty interesting by combining cyberpunk and space sci-fi settings.
A lot of cyberpunk at the time featured second-wave space exploration. Neuromancer ends up in space as well.
The main character of Cyberpunk is Night City.
The tabletop RPG Eclipse Phase is exactly that
Best way to sum up this history document : SIEG ZEON!
That calm voice, these in game photos, the skillful storytelling and so much more made watching this video a pleasure
i love how the esa's answer to everything in the first orbit war was just "drop a rock on it"
I would love to live in a technologically advanced world like Cyberpunk 2077 just without the violence and Corruption. Imagine Cybernetic enhancements and developed Space travel.
Cybernetic, nanotech, biotech might absolutely be necessary as augmentation required for future space travel and exploration.
Our squishy water bag bodies are far too fragile for the hostile void of the cosmos.
Sounds like you are looking for Solarpunk.
I mean its the late late late stage of capitalism is what you are seeing as "corruption" and the different monopolies from different countries racing to imperialise. The tech advancements will be no doubt be pretty cool but its gonna be hell for normal people or if you live in a third world country or even the first world.
If humans are involved, there will always be violence and corruption.
@@stock2896commies have been saying “late stage capitalism” for over a century. It ain’t happening
17:18 for those wondering, the Mars scene there is actually the opening cinematic for Destiny and has nothing to do with Cyberpunk. Get bamboozled.
I guess the Highriders are like Cyberpunk’s version of the belters from the expanse.
Or newtypes/coordinators/innovators/x-rounders from gundam.
@@willvermillion1025didn't you hear!? Newtypes are just a myth!!
Wow, just started playing cyberpunk 2077 again. And im amazed at how fleshed out the lore of the cyberpunk rpg world is. Makes me love the game wven more and hoping for sequels!!
Interestingly, You have spread to my secondary channel recommendations! Nice job bro
Haha hells yeah dude! Team up sometime? 😉
@@WiseFishdude! A Roanoke wise fish collaboration on cyberware and cyberpsychosis would be awesome!
Good video!
By the way, Tycho (which comes from Tycho crater on the moon, named after Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe) is pronounced as Taiko.
I was about to say that but saw your post
@@MrWibbley I always think when hear it about word that means "silence".
Only for saxons ...
Puts into perspective the phrase "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe"
Planetes is a great animal set in the 2070s. It's about garbage men in space. It's written by the same guy who wrote Vinland Saga. If anyone liked this video you should check it out
Don t stop from what u are doing! U re doing such a great job with this videos, especially with the cyberpunk ones. My love for the CP univers grew only because of you. You re content makes my day better. Keep up the good work and never stop
I honestly really hope that Cyberpunk Orion is set in space. The culture of the highriders is really cool and well developed.
Space was supposed to be apart of 2077, hence the space port and rocket pad you can access. They ran out of time to finish it tho. Although I doubt the sequel will take place primarily in space, it may be an option to visit or do missions in. Night City is the main character of this franchise.
Always get excited for your Cyberpunk lore vids! Keep them coming
thanks for the look at cyberpunk in space. a bit more fleshed out then the books i used to own for cyberpunk
especially nice to see a shot of my late friend, gary t washington's art for cyberpunk at 15:15
Love this video man. As an old nerd.. space centric perspectives for fictional settings is the quintessential essence of the Sci fi question: What If.... further... I'd love to see gameplay in cyberpunk portraying Angels.
I love the ideas Mike put forward, and how more recent Sci Fi take chunks from it. Especially that HIGHRIDER and BELTER paralel with The Expanse
Thanks for the lore ,I have been getting into cyber punk lore and thank god I found your channel , keep up the good work 😊
damn,... the more i learn about this universe the more i like it.i guess a few more hours of watching such videos, and i like it as much as i like warhammer40k lore.
Awesome video! I hope that the sequel adds more space content into its story, after all the code name is called Orion so we’ll just have to wait and see.
These lore videos are awesome man. Especially pumped for phantom, binge watching these. I want to do a new playthru now but if the update is going to change the whole game I’ll wait 😬
Real life is like Cyberpunk 2077 without the Cybernetics, space travel, and rocker boy terrorist
Why did Lucy have to go to the moon without David? 😭
i think a human mush thats above 100ml isnt allowed in airplanes/spaceship.
Given how it ended, I wouldn't be surprised if Lucy took her own life on the moon.
He ded
I thought everyone in the gang died
@@marcusblackwell2372 Falco survived. V actually gets a message from him in the game at some point. Lucy survived, but the series ended showing her wandering off, away from everyone else.
It looks like a prequel to The Expanse series. With High Riders having the same temperament as Belters.
The ESA faltered by burdening the High Riders with semi-slave labor. He had everything in his hands, but he paid the price for his unbridled ambition. Good for the High Riders... the first "Belters."
I'm sure they had DLC plans for the Palace but scrapped them. Might be something involved with a sequel, especially since Cyberpunk 2077's main game ending, Phantom Liberty ending, and Edgerunners ending all end up in space.
Mass Relays aren't catapults, they create tunnels of 'massless' space that allows travel orders of magnitude above lightspeed, I think from your description the Mass Driver is more like SpinLaunch's Kinetic Launch System, which does quite literally throw things into space.
Higher Riders are quite interesting characters I didnt know about.Really amazing video
The truth is that 2 tonnes rock (10 tonnes in original Cyberpunk lore) wouldn't do much damage on strategic level, as it would be around 1% of the power of the bomb dropped on Hiroshima, far beyond any conventional weapon, but something similar to Beirut Disaster. So it would be painful, but meaningless in the grand scheme.
Again, great video.
Thats probably why the USA didn't nuke them
i have nothing to commend but im glad you made a video about cyberpunk space lore
Excellent video really enjoyed it.
I love your videos! Many thanks!
Excellent video, thanks !!
Just saying,despite of phenomenal background story in space, details like cooking in space maybe is difficult due to different environment~ Since people just so used to the earth's atmosphere when making dishes for long time, "space cooking "maybe can be a new thing, that even will require a major to just work in space station,lol
im amazed theres so much space lore in this
Hopefully, maybe after the Phantom Liberty DLC, there should make another one in Space or at less on the Moon cause a lot of people including me want to know what happened to Lucy after Edgerunners.
I want it to be like total recall.
There was going to be a space dlc but since they rushed production it was vaulted for later use.
They've announced there's only the one dlc
Ngl at some point in this video the lore starts sounding like the plot of gundam
More cyberpunk content? I’m here for it.
Neuromancer's Freeside was a revelation and the Run on the Tessier Ashpool core in space was legendary. I think we would have loved a mission or two like that in Cyberpunk 2077.
I especially remember the description of the automaton speaking terminal. I once visited the Automaton museum in La Rochelle, France. That was wild. They had 18th and 19th century automatons including one that could write.
I loved the idea that the modern aristocracy had continued this affectation into the grim future of Cyberpunk.
Wasn't expecting new types in cyberpunk
So glad i dont have to look up all those board games to learn this stuff. This channel is so Nova!
Ah the belter version of cyber punk the high riders xD
I always thought they should've done a GITS version of expanse from the vantage point of earth cities (&sometimes mars/Ceres) to show how ppl on the ground level deal with certain incidents &living in a pre or post protomolecule world
Thanks very much, Your video brought to light things I wasn't aware of. I found it most helpful, and it's given me new ins for plot twists for both of my Highriders 1st and 2nd Stage teams for my weekly Cyberpunk Red: The Highriders TTRPG streams on Twitch.... Granted, that my take on things are a twist because I incorporate various other influences drawing from the likes of; Ghost in the Shell, Armitage the Third, Appleseed, Bubble Gum Crisis, Battle Angel Alita, Robocop, Blade Runner, Oblivion, Elysium, Repo the Genetic Opera, Johnny Mnemonic, etc.
I love your videos so much!
Thank you so much dude!! Really appreciate the support 😁
Very cool pfp
Oh snap-
What if the crew that was lost on their mission to Jupiter are the aliens that the conspiracy dude was talking about? What if they are the people controlling Mr. Blue Eyes and are responsible for the rogue AIs breaking through the Blackwall? What if they want to get revenge and this was the only way? To abandon their physical form and become AI gods that want to wreak havoc on humanity, because they were sent out into space and sacrificed themselves for humanity only to be forgotten.
I love it that you use Andromeda “Pathfinders” clip LOL
Can definitely see a lot Gundam influence especially the design of the highriser station
2:30 so tickets are instantly made obsolete aside from maybe exit burns and slowing down
Stopping artillery shells using human shield is so goofy, still the whole space lore is pretty interesting
More cyberpunk your station is the BEST!
So...cyberpunk is slowly but surely becoming cowboy bebop?
Considering the lore is almost 40 years old, I doubt it.
Mass Effect? No. You should have used Gundam SEED with Orb or other territory's Mass Driver. An extremely large electromagnetic catapult.
th-cam.com/video/UfdIwFeZd0w/w-d-xo.html Example
Imagine one DLC but in space?
Fun fact: The Xbox Series X/S and PS5 becomes a reaction aircraft.
The funniest thing is of course that the ESA actually exists.
Will you do a video on the armed space fleets
Love these lore videos, though I don't know that Mass Relays (Mass Effect) are good analogs to compare to Mass Drivers, Mass Relays rely on some special Mass Effect plot magic of Element Zero which in their universe allows them to manipulate the mass of objects in local space, Mass Relays work be essentially creating a tunnel between 2 Relays which removes all the mass allowing acceleration to essentially be infinite. a Mass Driver however doesn't alter the local gravity or mass, it just accelerates an object at great velocity acting similar to a railgun.
If only cp2077 has some sort of a expansion pack that is sets in space
First one here muwhahahaha, also thank you for bringing the cyberpunk world to life in such a immersive way
Based on our current rate of progression, should be 2177 when we reach CP 2077's tech. We're only 100 years behind schedule lol
Yummy lore yum yum
Mr fish as always thanks for the video
15:29 cue mechanicum plus asteromorphs
jeasus wow , i didint know the moon had so much lore! thats wild!
Even in the stars a punk can never escape corporate greed, for a rat race knows no end.🐱
They left Mars for unexplained reasons? Sounds like aliens to me
The Word remembers me of the street slang from Blade Runner
Who would win in a fight the major from ghost in the shell or Adam smasher
THX
The Cyberpunk universe offers weaponry and war tactics never before seen in the world, and some are even inconceivable in reality.
And the ESA is over here and is just like *"5 fucking ton rock lmao"*
Aaah yes, Highriders. Or as we Gundam fans know them as; New types!
I feel like aliens in Cyberpunk would just be the most realistic of aliens. They see that Earth is basically a shithole ran by companies and are like "...eh, we're good." Lock their doors and just speed by lmfao.
centre would have to be on the inter verge of the
prime meridian and equator lines
Which leads into the Atlantic Ocean
closest place to it is
Akwidaa in Ghana
17:13 Too bad it was Japanese Aerospace Program.
23:20 No mention of 'the angels' taking care of the protests... Odd.
Does anyone know where V went for one of the endings to the game?
Can you do a video on Morgan Blackhand?
The ch in Tycho is pronounced like a K, as in Christmas. You’re killing me!
They could be a more exciting version of the Expanse
Is that what this is!
Always wished i could be a Deltajocky in the ttrpg.
This part of cyberpunk's lore reminds me of dead space
Wouldn't it be great if we could travel freely to the moon and do missions in a low gravity environment?
US: *Big Stick Diplomacy*
Europe: *Big Rock Persuasions*
I think a bleak yet fitting reality is that intense corporate competition led to the launching of many satellites and rockets to a point they made launching manned space missions a very deadly affair, debris being a massive problem.
But im not the writer so i eat
I have a feeling 2077's sequel will likely focus on the Moon and or Mars.
Hey this is way off topic but in cyberpunk 2077 if you equipped the mod threat detector on V it’s a red outline on Adam smasher so that means he knew someone was there so why didn’t he just kill us or told Arasaka we was there.
Because he was bored and an intruder excited him, though he was dismissed and saburo did his bs before smasher could
@24:22 When you said the Pathfinders were "stranded on the planet" I hope you weren't meaning stranded on Jupiter, since it is a gas giant and has no feasible surface for a colony to "stand on". The colonists could be stranded above Jupiter or stranded around Jupiter but they were definitely not stranded ON Jupiter
You gonna do starfield videos when It comes out or is it not for you?
Absolutely! I’ve already applied to get early creator access so we shall see
@@WiseFish Sounds dope, can’t wait! Hope you get the early access man!
A space DLC would suit this game perfectly
