#nova roma

Been puzzling this.for a long while and i'm reaorting to crowd sourcing ideas... i need a name for a fictional cyberpunk payment processor with vaporwave vibes. The currency this setting uses is Value or Vals, which is a cashless currency but keyley NOT a crypto currency

Speaking of Nova Roma... the thing thats always bothered me abt transhumanism in cyberpunk is ohh how much of you can you replace before youre Not human is a Stupid way of looki g at it cause. What else can we be? If we are to remain any amount Ourselves via replacing our meat and encoding our brains we can only Be human- we have never been anything else. Theres something to be said about you being stripped away by artificial additions To things like cyberware (ie locking memories behind a paywall when you replace your brain with a computer type shit) but thats Artificial. There is Nothing inherent to body modification that strips away your human identity and I am Desperate for a cyberpunk story to explore That. Even with the concept of full body conversions and digitally encoded memories that Anyone can play back the Real dehumanizing force in Nova Roma is the artifice made natural by corporations. How they sell you a reality that seems natural, but is stripping away your ability to be human.

NOVA ROMA DEMO IS OUT OOOOHHHHHH MY GOD I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR SO LONG!!!!!!!! Watch me get fucken lost in the SAUCE for the next 12 hours

And don’t read. Not to mention the transphobia, antisemitism, and them renaming all modern countries after their ancient count parts. And making stuff up for modern countries. including the USA. calling it Mississippia. And supporting the appropriation of indigenous cultures. And
