What makes Neotech different from other 'cyberpunk" games?
It is the perspective by which we have cultivated the world. The feeling out of visceral emotions that shape humanity. You are not just a rebel. You are human.
Thread pt 2: Artilects. Let's start with the word. AI is all over the place already today, and in Neotech very much so. Most eqip can be considered smart and many of them can learn, see patters, take commands, converse, and so on. But they are not truly intelligent or self-aware
We tested a rule where the GM would get "flow dice" to represent what the artilects are trying to achieve in the world. That everything that happens the PCs somehow have a pattern behind it. Or that dice from smart eqip can be subtly influenced. Something for a future book!
Time for a new thread about Neotech's themes, summing up a live chat we had in Discord on Sunday. Today's topic - Platforms & Artilects.
Quote from anon: »the platforms engineer how you feel, think and vote. They control the mood of the basers so that they don’t go Disangani and revolt - or at least direct their anger at the right target. You consume the product, but never forget that you also are the product.«
