    “It’s a bullshit diagnosis”, with “cyberpsychosis” being “excited delerium” for cyborgs, works for me.

    This is one of the key things that has kept me away from Cyberpunk the game setting and one of my main problems with Shadowrun (not my only problem by any means).

      At least Shadowrun has the excuse that letting players get hella cybernetics and hella magic would be game breakingly OP.
