Precinct Omega Podcast - Design Discussion #3 - Cyberpunk

I TOTALLY FORGOT TO PUBLISH THIS EPISODE ON MONDAY!

So you get two episodes close together.  There'll be a new episode out on Monday with my round up of news from 2020.

After seeing all the hype about Cyberpunk 2077, and also watching the Tabletop Minions video about wargaming cyberpunk, I thought the subject deserved a deeper analysis of the challenges involved in designing tabletop cyberpunk experiences.

I also take the opportunity to wax just a little bit philosophical about the year we've all had, and why I think there's reason, on this day of all days, to be optimistic about the future.

 

Wishing all of my patrons a very merry Christmas, wherever you are.  This extends to those who've had to drop off for whatever reason.  I appreciated the support you felt you could give more than words can say.

 

The fact is that, despite - to some extent, one might say, because of - the chaos that gripped the world this year, Precinct Omega has enjoyed an incredibly successful year and at least some of the credit for that goes to you, my patrons.  Your support has kept up my morale, your feedback has encouraged my productivity and your ideas have stimulated my imagination.

 

I remain humbled and astonished that so many people are so interested in my work as to pay for the chance to see behind the curtain.

 

For those for whom 2020 has not been a good time, I wish you a far better year in 2021.  I, for one, am looking forward to the convention season that looks like it might still take place from mid-2021 onwards in the UK.  And if things continue to improve at the rate that they are, I have ambitions to visit the US in 2022 to get to see my American friends and supporters face-to-face.
