Hoping high for Cyberpunk Edgerunners
The visuals are heavily tied to the game and CDRP is overseeing it like Riot did with Arcane so it gives me confidence it's not another "buy IP and -blam!- it over" like Dragon's Dogma.
Would be pretty cool to see some nods like Meredith Stout or the cover art V somewhere in the show.
Though I think Lizzy Wizzy and Silverhands in-game appearances might be too costly for the show to have.

Just a reminder that CDPR did not create or write the Cyberpunk 2020, Cyber Punk Red, or most of the expanded materials and universe, The creator was Mike Pondsmith of R. Talsorian games, and as far as I know Mike is not involved in the making of this series.

Yes I know, but the aesthetic and world design is still very much the CDPR touch. And it's the sam with the Witcher where they nailed the representation of the novels with their own style on it. And you have some tabletop scenarios in CP77 as missions too so I'm sure the devs at CDPR do understand the source material and want to do it well, even though the game was pushed out a year too soon.

Fair enough, I'm expecting something very close, but I'm not looking for it to be something groundbreaking. Just entertain me in future capitalist hellscape; all I ask.

Yeah I don't think I'm going to like it that much, the storyboard seems a bit simple. But overload it with action and I'll enjoy the mess.

Wouldn't it be funny if it portrayed the game on release. [spoiler]let's just hope they don't overuse bad CGI to cut corners in animation.[/spoiler]

The trailers have a load of hand-crafted action scenes so I think it'll be fine. And much like Ghost in the Shells cyberpunk aesthetic, CGI is surprisingly easy to meld into the artstyle. As long as it doesn't pop out as badly shaded and with a bad fps mismatch.

As long as it doesn't do a Berserk '16 or ExArm

What, you don't like frying pans?
