Is Signalis considered cyberpunk?

[–] RightHandOfIkaros 6 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I think it could count but its more on the Scifi end IMO.

.>observer_ was a pretty decent try but it's a Bloober game, so its got all the Bloober hallmarks (infinite pointless jumpscares, really bad and inconsistent performance, etc).

Like, where are the A.D. Police Files-esque Survival Horror games? Hollowbody almost could have fit but that was tech-noir.

Its just an underutilized genre in general, IMO. And its real unfortunate too. We get infinity medieval fantasy RPGs, but cyberpunk horror is maybe just a handful in the last two decades, if that.

It's probably a bit more sci-fi what with the android women, but I'd consider it cyberpunk.
