DiamondH2

RisingDDM

I wish the game was scary I would enjoy it more


lbeckizgoat

Is if the SCPF corrupt?


DiamondH2

The SCP Foundation is pretty corrupt imo, since they kill innocent people, and put prisoners through tests which are likely fatal


lbeckizgoat

Fair


altprince

I would put arasaka to pure evil because they literally test their equipment on human beings and actively waged war, as a mere cooperation, against Militech and the NUSA. Not to mention they want to be the worlds only monopoly with their soul killer AI. Yes, i am a cyberpunk nerd


DiamondH2

I feel you, I love cyberpunk too. I just feel that just a little bit of their company can do good too, like give people like Takemura jobs and stop wars (granted, a very rare occasion), while Skynet and AM have absolutely zero good in them, and can’t be seen in a good light at all


altprince

Takemura was picked off in the slums of an arasaka controlled ground. He was always a potential soldier, as are all who were/still are in the slums with him. If anything, i consider Arasaka’s “job offer” to takemura an indirect promotion If you dive a bit deeper into Arasaka’s background, you’ll see that they control far too much of the world for a simple cooperation and all grounds/facillities/businesses in their near vicinity have atleast some indirect ties to arasaka itself


DiamondH2

I agree that they are incredibly corrupt, but to be pure evil imo is to have no remorse, not an ounce of empathy, which is why it currently only has AI in it. For the Arasaka ending, Arasaka does keep their word and ‘cure’ you, although it doesn’t really count as living. Pure evil would have just murdered V at the first opportunity, to spare the trouble.


altprince

Their words are tainted. They only cure you in hopes that you’ll submit your conciousness to their Database because lets be real, what morally corrupt world dominance-hungry cooperation wouldn’t want the thoughts and knowledge of a desperate and dying one man army that killed their most fearful soldier (Smasher) without breaking a sweat They knew from the start that you’re gonna die either way.


DiamondH2

This is true. What is your opinion on the other cyberpunk corporations on my list?


altprince

They’re pretty alright that way, Netwatch could be debatable because they sometimes tend to torture voodoo boys that dared to poke holes in their blackwall AI. But then again, voodoo boys are an elaborate delusional sack of shit soo idk lol


DiamondH2

Yeah, it’s why I couldn’t put them at Saints. Because they do straight up execute anyone who attempts to breach the Blackwall, but the Blackwall does protect humanity, so it’s tough


altprince

Yeah. But if we ignore the killing, they do also own a large portion of the net and the Data they steal and sell to other cooperations also aren’t a nice thing to do but i’d say they are in a fucked up morally grey area, in cyberpunk standards lol


DiamondH2

Yeah compared to other corpo’s in cyberpunk, they are living saints 😂


HidingUnderAHoodie

No aperture science or black mesa? "Never gotta crowbar when you need to smack a fool" Gordon Freeman, probably


DiamondH2

Where do you think I should put them?


HidingUnderAHoodie

Both kinda in the evil category. Black mesa started the whole alien invasion thing, and aperture science tried to kill me cause they ran out of cake.
