2:10 I feel like they could just do that with edgerunners. In my opinion if it is a season 2 of edgerunners I think it should follow a new edgerunner and their story of becoming a legend. And then like you said have something that connects the new edgerunner to the original gang
Edit: just say the black hand idea and ts would go so hard like him being undercover trying to stay hidden from the public eye, or something after the events of 2023 would be awesome
The Johnny route would be cool but imo the events of 2023 ‘saka tower should follow the actual events that occurred in Cyberpunk Red (Johnny being cut in half by smasher in the first interaction and being soul killed by spider Murphy) it would show just how much Silverhand was done dirty and make his redemption even more satisfying in 2077
Honestly, I'm a little worn out of 2077's Johnny. I think a different character needs to take the spotlight. A show about the Arasaka's or Morgan would be amazing ngl
As much as i know this is a cop out answer. But id like to see the story of V. I dont mean just want we saw and played in the game.
I want to see a series where the beginning is v's childhood. The middle is V's time skip with jackie and their time in night city as you play the game's timeframe. Giving hints of V's canonically given story. Not the story we just choose. Which the ending. Obviously should be the cannon ending the devs want for V. Not just the ending we choose.
This way we see a set in stone story for V. Does that mean it will hurt all story options in the game? Yes. But that is the freedom of a game. As compared to the true story of the character.
Also yes id love a blackwall/old net show. Especially during datakrash?!
As a huge fan of cyberpunk for a little while I would love to see them expand on the racing and maybe even get a sleek peek into Claire's Past maybe see her husband and doing this show could also open up some opportunities for cars that could be put into either 2077 or the new one and can create more things that could be done to the cars like mod shops more indepth and customizable paint styles and I would love looking at the show then re creating a car of my favourite character
There was a rumour about idris being james bond. While thats a bad idea, especially for current times, he can have his own james bond series. Amazing it would be.
Really appreciate that you were so straightforward about the intention of this video from the outset. That it's all purely fun speculation based on what we know, what they've hinted at, and what we'd like to see. I love some of these ideas. I've been hoping this new series not only delves more into the blackwall, but also sets things up for what to expect in Orion. We don't need to meet our main character or something, I just wanna see something like another corp war kicking off at the end, or the blackwall becoming much more of a constant danger, present in everyone's everyday lives.
My idea was a sort of coming-of-age/horror (not like Stranger Things, more like Stand By Me) centered around a group of teenagers/young adults, aspiring mercs, some of whom are netrunners. They mess with the blackwall, and find that something has followed them back to the other side, and now haunts and terrorizes them more and more with each passing day.
It needs work of course, I'm no professional writer, but I want something like that: "small-time/small-scale people vs monolithic/unimaginably bigger than them/horrifying problem or event."
And if you'd induldge me for a second, I'd like to expand (and rant a little) about my previous point: youtubers and article writers being forthright, honest, not misleading about their content.
Okay…
Lots of game franchises go through what I'm about to describe, between releases, but it feels especially bad with Cyberpunk lately, for some reason.
In this sort of doldrums in-between stage, right as 2077 is winding down, and they're working on the future of the franchise: preparing a new netflix animated series, beginning to (potentially, considering how long it's been since they announced partnering with Anonymous Entertainment for it) materialize ideas for the live action project, and deliver their fully-realized vision for Cyberpunk in the form of Orion – hype is winding up more and more, and with it – a lot of clickbait articles and videos re-reading old news you already heard in 2023 from CDPR themselves, with titles like, "NEW LEAKS/DETAILS ABOUT CYBERPUNK: THE ORION SAGA: FEATURES, NEW CITY?" etc. and other bullshit. Meanwhile, the picture or thumbnail is always some generic AI art of a character that doesn't even look like a Cyberpunk character. They also keep presenting the (pretty baseless and poorly-conceived) speculation that Orion will take place in Chicago, just because of that one ad in the game advertising a quick train ride to Chicago with something like "coming to you soon" at the end.
Pertaining to that, specifically: I really don't see why CDPR would craft an entire city like this, only to abandon it for a city with less potential than NC in the sophmore sequel. Not only is NC the main character of the franchise… not only are these amazing stories, characters, and conflicts only really able to happen the way they do thanks to the very specific, uniquely violent corpo-gang-merc-nomad ecosystem of NC…
but also, why wouldn't you hope to see Orion return to a more detailed, dense, varied, changed version of a city we feel like we only scraped the surface of in 2077? I promise, Cyberpunk Chicago is cool, but it's not nearly as interesting or bursting with gameplay and storytelling potential as NC is.
Also, this is just petty, but I gotta rant a little: I fucking loathe whoever came up with that godawful, uncreative fake title ("the orion saga") that completely disregards the fact that CDPR is only CODENAMING all their projects after stars and constellations. It's not the actual title of the game, and where did you even get this "saga" part from, other than being somehow more uncreative with titles than Hollywood, and having to lie about unreleased games for a living?
If you just google "cyberpunk orion" right now, you'll get a number of a fake "cover art" with that title, overlaid on a picture of some pretty punk girl (with zero cybernetics, just tattoos and punk hair/piercings) standing and looking wistful in front of a blurried rainy city background. There's a few of them with different girls and scenes. They look AI generated, too.
The problem isn't that these images exist – I'd really rather AI "art" not be a thing at all, but that's a different argument. These images might not have been made with the intention to deceive fans into thinking it was official, and thats fine.
The problem is that a number of youtubers have made these images their thumbnails for these fake "Orion news" videos, which definitely are intended to deceive you into at least clicking and watching in hope of hearing something new. They might tell the truth and only read the facts (that are almost two years old at this point) once you're actually watching, but they pose these videos in a way that's meant to look exciting and new to the untrained (and sometimes, just dumb) eye.
Not only that, but even GOOGLE is running with these as the series of front page image previews you see when googling the project, right next to one that's just laughably bad and fake: a screenshot from a modded version of 2077 of a shirtless male V from behind, with what appears to be a third-person and cosmetic cyberware mod (he has some spinal implant), clearly trying to make it look like it will be a third-person game (I really hope it won't be, first-person was one of 2077's strengths in delivering immersive storytelling).
This kind of slop is inevitable: fans gonna get unreasonably/unrealistically hyped – grifters gonna grift. I'm just already tired of seeing it, and I can't wait for CDPR, R Talsorian games, and Netflix to start talking, showing us stuff, and releasing again, so people stop either outright lying (who am I kidding, they won't), and talking about old news like "more American fire hydrants and manholes" being in Orion, as though it's some huge gameplay mechanic and not just an art direction idea CDPR has talked about for a total of 45 seconds.
Oof. Being a Cyberpunk fan is bittersweet right now. The future is looking hella bright, but the waiting and having to sift through this crap for actual news or details is getting old.
Anyway, great video, great ideas, really; thanks for giving me a place to rant for a minute lmao
Whatever happens just know the ending will hit like a nuke. Someone gas to die or be left in a state worse than death or be a shell of their former self.

Adds the idea of both Keanu and Idris into the Cyberpunk “live-action” film.
I love all of these ideas, they need to do ALL OF EM .
underrated channel, loved the video bro
Orion
Honestly, I'm a little worn out of 2077's Johnny. I think a different character needs to take the spotlight. A show about the Arasaka's or Morgan would be amazing ngl
Whatever show they do next i have faith it will be good. My only want is that the project be done by Studio Trigger like Edgerunners was

Also yes id love a blackwall/old net show. Especially during datakrash?!
i think it would be cool to see a story of a cropo choom and see the behind the scenes of the corporations and their secrets.
As a huge fan of cyberpunk for a little while I would love to see them expand on the racing and maybe even get a sleek peek into Claire's Past maybe see her husband and doing this show could also open up some opportunities for cars that could be put into either 2077 or the new one and can create more things that could be done to the cars like mod shops more indepth and customizable paint styles and I would love looking at the show then re creating a car of my favourite character

You got me.
We need only few and we need them as masterpieces.

A focus Johnny, alt and Ai in general would be cool
All good ideas. I personally love Songbird so much and want to see more of her!
That would be awesome 😊
Whatever happens just know the ending will hit like a nuke.
Someone gas to die or be left in a state worse than death or be a shell of their former self.
i just hope netflix wont ruin it..
cool idea…. Tales from Delmain..
