New to Cyberpunk

[Kip 32]

So I don't have any context for the store, the characters, or the lore of the game. This will be my first experience when I get the game this fall. Is there a good place to read up on the story and the general universe this game is taking place in so I can have a better understanding of everything when I play the game?

Go here: https://www.netrunner2077.net/lore

It has a lot of the lore and backstory there. It is one of those click-a-bout websites so you cane easily find what interests you the most and read up about it.

I am not really deep into the lore myself. I think that is what makes this game great. It is attracting all sorts of new fans to this kind of genre. I have always had a soft spot for cyberpunk style games and what not so this is right up my ally.

Start with the Wiki page if you are super fresh to it. There is a lot. Fans made their own stories and lore as well. I don't follow everything, there is too much to follow when you work full time and have kids lol but I know a decent amount.

The store? If there was a legit Cyberpunk store I would be in heaven. LOL I know you meant the story though. You don't need to know much to enjoy it. Just read up about the game and find interesting points and go from there. Some parts are pulled from Cyberpunk lore and other parts are new concepts.

If you really want to invest in the lore and don't want to waste time outside of the story that doesn't tie in with the game, just get the book for it. It covers everything you will want to know about the story, the gangs, the paths, and the characters.

It is out of stock on Amazon right now but you can probably find it elsewhere online.

Someone actually just recommended that to me last night when I was in a game with them. I am going to try to see if I can get my hands on it. 

Thanks for all your info guys.

It is still out of stock in a lot of places but you could still order it and wait for it to be back in stock. We have plenty of time still before the game comes out.

I think I can only do this on Amazon. I might still have Prime which I believe means I will get it a day or 2 after it is back in stock. I might just order it. I mean I have a little extra cash.
