The media people consume, whether in book, movie, or game form, has a huge influence on their personal beliefs and how they see the world. Dark, cynical works like Game Of Thrones , The Handmaid's Tale , or the Westworld TV adaptation are valuable cautionary tales - warnings of what will happen if humanity doesn't collectively get its act together. Without the counterbalancing narrative of more optimistic stories, though, it's easy for people to get the impression that it's impossible for society's problems to be solved (particularly if the revolutionary factions in these social commentary stories keep devolving into mass-murdering terroris

During an emotional conversation with Johnny at the Oil Fields during the Chippin’ In side job, Johnny mentions that he wants to take Rogue on a date as she deserved all those years ago. V should not ignore Johnny’s request, as taking over V’s body is simply to help him make amends for his past, and the Blistering Love side job that unlocks will prove to V that Johnny just wants to move
Ever since the 1960s, science fiction authors like Ursula K. LeGuin and Norman Spinrad have been writing books set in proto-solarpunk societies, where technological progress is balanced with renewable energy and communal living. Writer Jay Springett traced solarpunk's origins, as a term, to an obscure 2008 blog post, but he attributes the movement's true beginnings to a 2012 Brazilian short story anthology titled S olarpunk: Ecological and Fantastical Stories in a Sustainable World . Solarpunk stories consciously reject the neon grime of classic Cyberpunk 2077 updates and the white sterile corridors of classic sci-fi settings in favor of futures that are vibrant and hopeful, while still feeling tantalizingly plausi

V finds that the fortune teller has been hacked to spread anti-establishment messages, including the ones V received on their phone.

Johnny Silverhand’s first impressions are filled with assault, verbal abuse, and a threat to kill one’s self. It’s safe to say that Silverhand and V do not get on the best of terms with their first impressions, but maybe in V’s weakest moments, it’s time to listen to what Johnny has to say. The Tapeworm main job takes place during four main j
Writers, illustrators, architects, and political radicals have eagerly embraced the nascent solarpunk genre as an optimistic alternative to the gloomy, polluted sprawls of cyberpunk and the "everything has a cogwheel" decor of steampunk. Additionally, many Afrofuturist creatives have adopted trappings of the solarpunk genre to build hypothetical worlds where futuristic technology mingles with traditional African architecture, artwork, and fashion, as is seen in the fictional country of Wakanda from Black Panther .
