[QUOTE="Bagpuss, post: 9138927, member: 3987"] Far from small, R.Talsorian Games has been publishing Cyberpunk since 1988, the video game is based on the RPG not the other way round. Cyberpunk Red is effectively a 4th edition of the setting, there was [B]Cyberpunk [/B]set in 2013 (had about five supplements before it was updated), with [B]Cyberpunk 2020[/B] (came out in 1990), had about 30 supplements (not including 3rd party publishers) this was probably the most popular setting and is still preferred by some now. The final supplements for it were two campaign books starting off the 4th Corporate War, a planned 3rd book never got published. Then [B]CyberGeneration[/B] set in 2027 (from 1993) this was an alternate timeline, with characters being nanite superpowered kids fighting back against polluting corporate powers. [B]Cyberpunk 203X[/B] - published in 2005, wasn't well received and didn't get much support at all, it was much more a transhumanist setting, set after the 4th Corporate War. In fact it is now considered an alternate timeline. Then when CDPR decided to do a Cyberpunk 2077 video game they brought in Mike Pondsmith due to his decades of experience in the genre, and he decided to update Cyberpunk RPG setting to span the gap between 2030 and 2077, which is [B]Cyberpunk Red[/B] set in 2045 again after the 4th Corporate War but ignoring CyberGeneration and 203X. So it's a bit far from a small video game promo, its a massive setting with about forty years of history behind it, Red already has six supplements for it, plus a load of support online. Not sure how well supported the other games you mention are, but it seems other than Shadowrun they seem pretty small in comparison. [/QUOTE]
