Content warning elliptical notes on core characters / motivations
i've been relistening to this book, and just happened to get cy-borg (a cyberpunk rpg) in the mail yesterday that includes the following rule:
You are encouraged to break every single rule in this book. Except this one:
RULE #00
Player characters cannot be loyal to or have sympathy for the corps, the cops, or the capitalist system. They might find themselves reluctantly forced to do missions for them or their minions. But make no mistake -- they are the enemy.
this book 100% breaks this rule.
