Cyberpunk is a subgenre of science fiction characterized by a dystopian future setting, often in a society ruled by powerful corporations, advanced technology, and artificial intelligence. The term was coined in the 1980s, with settings typically featuring a juxtaposition of high-tech development, such as cybernetics and artificial intelligence, with societal breakdown or radical change. Cyberpunk narratives often focus on anti-heroes, hackers, and other disenfranchised individuals living on the fringes of society, struggling against oppressive systems. The genre also tends to explore themes such as identity, personal freedom, and the consequences of technological advancements.

Since the failure/flop of Cyberpunk, people have adapted an overly forgiving mindset towards the general game market.

'Overwatch 2 is coming out really late, and Overwatch 1 has gotten no ounce of content for 2.5 years?
that's fine honestly, we wouldn't want it to have bugs, right?'
It's been delayed for 2 years? That's ok, we wouldn't want it to have bugs! Better be patient!! Cyberpunk Syndrome
