Okay, would that style just include high fantasy? That why I’m hype for the game cause is not a high fantasy RPG(and cause CDPR made W3 enjoyable for me)
Cyberpunk 2077

Not at all. It's just that people have different ideas about what Cyberpunk means (the genre itself) and for some it's a GrimDark world of acid rain and perpetual dark baddies lurking in an even darker corner and for others it's more varied. Shadowrun had High Fantasy elements but it's still a wonderful Cyberpunk world to explore.

If there ever was a setting that could effectively use KMFDM it would be this. I think Anarchy or Son of a Gun could work well as they would probably have to avoid any tracks that mention the band or "date" the songs. Hybrid, VNV Nation, Icon of Coil, Sister Machine Gun, Huoratron, Cubanate, DJ? Acucrack, and Fluke which all play well into this slightly update universe could work well.
The whole game is ripe for using a lot of good industrial and dnb which I hope they don't skip on, I know Perturbator had to relase a statement saying they weren't involved with the game which gives me hope for zero Synthwave.

I feel like I'm on the same sentiment regarding the issues with visuals. I believe what William Gibson says is pretty accurate, that it's more in line with a 80s retrofuture. Realistically that's just pulling word and fitting them as it honestly is still somewhat cyberpunk, I guess... Grimdark is the easy route. Idk the story/characters and overall feel yet.
But honestly, a lot in that trailer which is suppose to describe the "poverty" looked cleaner than modern Tokyo, and it can be quite thrashed in the degenerate hours around Shinjuku and Shibuya. I simply just want the class line more divided, a trashier underbelly. I want a clear vision of dystopian and utopian divide, but not too far where one side is mad max and the other is space casinos. It doesn't have to have the noir that, probably a good chunk of people are demanding. Simply put, just not enough Kawloon for my immediate tastes.
Still day one for me, I respect cdpr to make a good game and they deserve some artistic licenses over the genre we've come to know. I'll be surprised if they didn't have any synthwave, but I really hope for some gesstaffelstein.

This feels like the whole "Diablo 3 is using too bright a color palette" argument again.
If mods support it, you could mod the game to only take place at night, it would probably fit everyone's supposed vision (and match the name of the city). About 90% of the OG Blade Runner was at night.

Exactly. What we saw of the game looked every bit as amazing as I hoped it would, and I'm sure we'll get to experience the gameworld in its dark, rainy, seedy glory too.

Live feed right now with the dev. He just specifically said they purposely did the trailer in daytime to show they can give the cyberpunk vibe during the day, but there will be a day/night cycle and the nights will have that neon look everyone expects.

Eh, I'm not going to get into a "knees too sharp" argument here, but Diablo 3 was definitely too bright and I'd say the majority of the gamers playing it preferred the aesthetic of D2... by a million miles.
Doesn't mean this game won't be incredible, I hope it is and have a ton of faith in the developers. Excited to see more gameplay soon

In the interview I just saw, he said they are basically going with 3 archetypes: Solos, Techies and Netrunners. But you'll get to tailor those 3 classes. You can be a male or female character named "V".

Yeah okay, I noticed that since the release of the trailer.everyone got their version of it
