 So, with Cyberpunk being little under 2 months away, I think now is a great time to bring you a few videos a week on the game and what it's all about. This series of Cyberpunk videos will cover everything you need to know about the game to brief you on the game or prepare you on what to expect. Today in episode 1 we check out the world of Cyberpunk where I bring you up to date on what this game is, what to expect from it when it releases on November 19th 2020, not too far away at all people. How's it going guys? My name's DPJ and if you enjoyed the video leaving a like really helps out and subscribe if you like what you see and want to see more. So let's start with the basics where we discuss this game, it's creators, the characters you will be playing, where the game is set and the store setting in which you will live playing Cyberpunk 2077. So Cyberpunk is an upcoming role playing video game developed and published by CD Projekt. One of their more popular games is The Witcher 3. Anyone who has played this or knows of it will tell you when it comes to open world games there ain't many out there that can do better. So within Cyberpunk players assume the first person perspective of a customisable mercenary known as V who can acquire skills in hacking and mercenary and arson and ranged weapons and options for melee combat that we will check out in another video, the skill trees as well as the mass variety of weapons and so much more. Now the story takes place in Night City an open world with six distinct regions. The Night City is an American megacity in the free state of North Carolina controlled by corporations and unassailed by the laws of both country and state. It sees conflict from rampant gang wars and its ruling entities contending for dominance. The city is reliant on robotics for everyday aspects like waste collection, maintenance and public transport. Its visual identities derived from four errors it underwent. The entropism, the kitsch, the neo militarism and the neo kitsch. A little more on these errors as they in reality play massive parts in the style you will see and come to expect from this game. These four errors we will learn more about in a quick second and they will be accompanied by posters created to represent each error. Entropism is typified by necessity or the style and draws its roots from a period of austerity following a global financial crash earlier in the cyberpunk lore. Buildings in the style of entropism are old, grey and creepy and appear in areas where people can't afford to modernise kitsch. As society began to recover after the stock market crash, people looked for a way to brighten up the grey world they'd become accustomed to. Kitch was a popular counter-cultural movement against the austerity of entropism, an expression of happiness and recovery in a period of relative access typified by bold colours, bright plastics and accessibility. Neo-militarism is separated from the austerity of entropism by its sleek and domineering aesthetic, its power dressing for the already powerful and has an air of practical luxury. Unsurprisingly this pillar also includes the various organised militia of Night City who wield their imposing appearance as a weapon of intimidation and then we have Neil Kitch. Where the original Kitch era was marked by its accessibility, Neil Kitch is the opposite. This is the look of the ultra-rich appropriating the surface level aesthetic of Kitch without acknowledging its cultural motivation, warping it into a statement of object wealth. While it has a similar colour palette to the earlier era, Neil Kitch incorporates natural fabrics into its clothing and things like wood and marble into its architecture. So those are basically the four eras which set the foundations and the visuals surrounding Cyberpunk and Night City. And while watching it onscreen now you can see this thing is pretty damn colourful, but there's all kinds of themes going on here, where one side of the street seems like it's full of greys and paw, the other side of the street is just bright colours and LED lights and adverts and so much more. So back into the story. So the internet here is managed by corporations and the army, homelessness abounds but does not preclude cybernetic modification for the poor, giving rise to cosmetic addiction and consequent violence. These threats are dealt with by the armed force known as the Psycho Squad. The trauma team can be employed for rapid medical services and because of the constant threat of physical arm, all citizens are allowed to openly carry firearms in public. Sounds like quite the city you want to jump into. Now within this city you are a mercenary outlaw. We can customise our character's cyberwear, skill set and play style, but this we will go in depth into in another video. And we can explore this vast city where the choices you make check the story and the world around you going after a one of a kind implant that is the key to immortality. And along the way we will see fight and even work with the many unique characters within Night City as we put our foot in the door as we become what we want to become as this game we can play in many many different ways, but us being dropped into this city as a mercenary outlaw I think things are probably only going to go one way. But yeah guys we are quickly coming to the end of this video, it's just about learning the basics of Cyberpunk 2077, Night City where this whole takes place and the basic story of what's gone on within Night City and the role we play. Going into creating this video I wanted to basically start from the ground up, covering every aspect of the game for the people out there who ain't clued up about Cyberpunk what this franchise will be and offer. And this is just the first in many videos to come and like I said I will cover all you need to know going into this game just so it doesn't overwhelm you when you load this thing up because as I've seen from many different sources this game can be quite overwhelming if you don't know what to expect. But yeah guys this was just the backstory of Night City, what we will be dropped into the game and like I said just the basics. Of course to Uconn we will more so take a look at the character we will be playing, customisation, weaponry, different gangs, cars, absolutely everything people. I won't miss a beat with this trust me. Each episode will be hashtagged with a number as well in the order I believe you should probably watch them in just in case you missed them with a playlist linked within the video description where you can check them all out. But guys if you enjoyed the video leaving a like really helps me out, if you're new around here and want to see more Cyberpunk make sure you subscribe but guys thanks as always for stopping by hopefully you enjoyed the video and hopefully I will see you on that next one.
