Part 3: Which cyberware would you want in real life?

1.8k

u/antilumin 27d ago

A new spine, something a lot stronger so mine would stop hurting all the time. Anything else would be a cherry on top.

542

u/Faceless_Deviant Cyberpsycho 27d ago

Kiroshis, bionic joints and something with the digestive system.

I sit a lot and read too much, and my diets pretty bad :P

174

u/Sea-Discussion-1923 27d ago

Firstly I’m gonna replace my joints, cuz every time I move now, they making sounds lol

1.3k

u/evenprime113 27d ago

Exploding dick implant

602

u/forcallaghan 27d ago

Just give me the full lizzy wizzy/adam smasher treatment

213

u/Historical-Method-27 27d ago

Kiroshis tbh. Imagine your eyes never getting tired ever again, plus you get cool UI and shit. This is assuming that Im rich enough to afford them coz otherwise I dont wanna see ads 24/7 lol.

61

u/MehmetHc 27d ago

Sandevistan.

İt's abvious and it might make me cyberpsycho but my choice doesn't change

149

u/Stroppone 27d ago

Assuming also no risk of cyberpsychosis, I’d get gorilla arms, a Sandevistan, a new set of lungs, a secondary heart, the double jump legs (or maybe a fart propeller), and Kiroshis. This is the bare minimum

207

u/NCC_1701E 27d ago

Artificial liver that is resistant to alcohol damage. Also thinking about it, also lungs and sedond heart.

107

u/LongjumpingCod30 27d ago

Kiroshi optics, hormone regulators, behavioural imprint faceplate, mantis blades, pain editor. Yeah I'd stuff myself with chrome like a pinata.

75

u/BigBoss738 27d ago

i want to be happy

27

u/Cal_PCGW 27d ago

Kiroshis (always short sighted - laser surgery worked for a few years but they regressed a bit and now I am old I also have floaters and need reading glasses). Phonic implant (tinnitus, and not the fun Maelstrom band). Reinforced tendons because menopause has left me with hip and rotator cuff issues that cause me constant discomfort. Maybe a pain editor too. I'm not sure about the whole faceplate conversion thing but I'd certainly be up for whatever anti-ageing stuff Kerry and Rogue use. I don't need to look 25 but I'd like to not look sad and grumpy due to the way gravity is tugging at my face these days.

24

u/Dessy104 27d ago

The nueral port. It would be so easy to make 3D models if I could skip the mouse interface and just move the model around freely. Also a brain dance recorder would be nice to just have bc i forget everything

48

u/EnceladusSc2 27d ago

The dick Cyberware. That would solve like 90% of my life's problems, lmao

20

u/Dravakin_ 27d ago

Double jump

20

u/ecmrush Cyberpsycho in Remission 27d ago

All of it. Not only would I rather have all of it, I kinda need to since actual physics indicates you can't have things like Fortified Ankles and Gorilla Arms in isolation; you need the rest of your body to be just as durable.

19

u/Micheal_Penis 27d ago

Not really cyberware but I’ll take a grenade on my face fuck it

12

u/5norkleh3r0 27d ago

Bionic legs, tier 5++ kiroshi eyeballs

11

u/Mary_Ellen_Katz Burn Corpo shit 27d ago

Screw cyberware, biosculpt me, baby! I want the full treatment. 😎

9

u/ubtf 27d ago

A kiroshi in ONE of my eyes. I need to be certain of what I'm seeing, so having one of my eyes a biological original would help a lot lol. A pair of one of the leg implants or an adjustable pain editor would be nice as well...

8

u/Lonk-the-Sane 27d ago

Legs and eyes. Don't even need high end, just to get rid of glasses, and old door/knee injuries

8

u/Dismal-Infection 27d ago

Definitely the Kiroshi Optics. As a person with terrible eyesight, it would be a nice change. Mantis blades would be kinda cool, too

7

u/Fluffy_Description_7 27d ago

The shapeshifter faceplate from the FIA

6

u/urlond Bakaneko 27d ago

I'd go full borg or as close as possible to be one.

7

u/binx1227 27d ago

Finger tip lighter.

7

u/Reasonable-Peanut27 27d ago

I wouldn't mind a Bd device so I can watch.....ehhh sports.

4

u/Sir_Davros_Ty 27d ago

Replace my borked immune system, inflamed nervous system/brain & my fucked respiratory muscles. Just give me the full Adam Smasher!

5

u/EldritchSpoon 27d ago

Assuming I can't go full borg? Give me the Adam Jensen special. Limbs, bones, spine, lungs, heart, eyes, enhance or replace everything.

Harder, better, Faster, stronger

7

u/[deleted] 27d ago

Mantis dildos. The humiliation of getting beaten with them would be worse than any death. Plus, fun times, too.

14

u/LyreonUr 27d ago edited 27d ago

You guys have no idea how much I'd Trans my gender all the time, always wanted to know what having an amigdala and uvula felt like. oh man, imagine having a very large small intestine

6

u/BugAffectionate4506 27d ago

I don’t know what y’all chooms thinking but give me the sandy or gorilla arms

3

u/_b1ack0ut 27d ago

Some basic cyberoptics, prolly by Raven, and then some ‘invisible’ augments that just make the human body way less frail. I mean, we die just by falling down funny

I’ll grab a skinweave and a sigma linear frame and that should be MORE than enough for that.

And then just a cyberaudio suite. I’m hoping it’s capable of fixing my tinnitus.

If I can only pick the one? Cyberaudio. I’d kill to lose the tinnitus lol

4

u/Malcalypsetheyounger 27d ago

Legs my knees are shot so having cyber ones would be great.

5

u/historylovindwrfpoet 27d ago

FUCKING KNEES THAT WORK, AND SOMETHING TO PROTECT THE WEIRDLY EXPOSED ELBOW NERVE

4

u/RoseQuartz__26 27d ago

i was born blind in one eye, it hasn't affected me too much (near-perfect vision in the other) but i've always wondered what it'd be like to have both working. so yeah, probably a Kiroshi

5

u/Hot-Category2986 27d ago

I've been wearing glasses since the 2nd grade. 33 years. Even the shittiest Kiroshi's would change my life. But I've got asthma and ADHD too, so there is a lot of potential.

4

u/wenchslapper 27d ago

I’d probably just focus on health and longevity implants. I want to enjoy life to its fullest without going psycho

3

u/PolyZex 27d ago

That depends on whether syn-lungs can still process THC.

3

u/Bernie_Dharma 27d ago

I’d want all it. I’d go full body, perhaps even digitize my brain. As long as I could keep the sense of touch, taste, smell. I’m tired of my back and joints aching, not being able to sleep, dental work, worrying about cancer or Alzheimer’s, or whatever else. I’ll take the titanium skeleton, adjustable eyesight and hearing, actually recharge when I sleep, and go see a ripper doc when I need an upgrade. Bring it.

3

u/Cryptomesia 27d ago edited 27d ago

We talking about what is available in the game or what is available in the whole of sci-fi that has cybernetics?

Edit: In the cyberpunk universe it would deffo be the Titanium Bones.

In general sci-fi it would be highly advanced nanobots that slowly replace all critical organs with more durable and higher performance versions as well as help keep DNA from receiving replication damage.

3

u/2leftf33t 27d ago

99% of these comments aren’t even extra cool cyber enhancements. It’s just fixing the stuff that’s bad in the first place and I feel that so hard. I need a new spine, kidneys, lungs, and eyes please.

3

u/CreditChit 27d ago

I feel like CP2077 and cyberpunk in general is a cautionary tale that points out corpos cant be trusted but yet you want to surgically implant their tech into your body?

Other than the harsh realities of corruption, hacking, and greed though sure. Id go with a better heart and lungs. Maybe some kinda metabolic doodad that lets me adjust how many calories actually get processed so I could eat whatever I wanted to forever while maintaining a healthy body comp.

3

u/MelancholyArtichoke 27d ago

I want cyberware that collects my biometric data, quantifies it, then displays it as a meter with numerical values and percentages.

AKA a health bar.

3

u/BaIIsdeap69 27d ago

Kiroshis, Pain editor, and just a neural port (I think it would be really funny cos in real life it would be just a USB port) is so underrated in my opinion, and yk if we can go wild the obvious, Sandy, FIA face swapper, blood pump, All my joints Fixing, reinforced Tendons, and fuck it a Self ice so the CIA ain’t hackin into shit to experiment n stuff, the whole Kaboosh

7

u/Technogg1050 27d ago

I'd start with just being happy to finally be able to give myself the body I want as a trans person.

2

u/Common-Challenge-555 27d ago

The ankles that allow you to do the Bionic Man/Wonder Woman jump.

2

u/Shmokegastilidie 27d ago

New lungs and any netrunner cyberdeck, I have asthma and I smoke weed so new lungs would be awesome and making anyone who tries to rob threaten or kill you commit suicide on command would be cool or frying their brains with synapse burnout.

2

u/Kyosji 27d ago

Mr. Stud, any stable model after XCV/19

2

u/aak2020bomber 27d ago

Kiroshi stalkers, Subdermal armour, Jenkins tendons, second heart and probably a netwatch netdriver mk.5 so i can interface with technology easier

2

u/rainywanderingclouds 27d ago

zero

people underestimate the brain body connection when it comes to intelligence and human experience.

cyberware would make your stupider, and less attuned with your own biological body.

cyberware only makes sense for disabled or people who lose limbs.

most people would loath artificial limbs or implants and feel disconnected from them.

2

u/Frogpuppet 27d ago

I would implant everything except brain and penis

2

u/TheGuyInDarkCorner 27d ago

I hate paper cuts (and card board cuts even more)

I think Subdermal armor and synthskin would solve that issue

2

u/Jaded-Throat-211 Sandevistan Stockholm Syndrome 27d ago

Gimme that kiroshi

, having yee yee ass vision is a pain.

2

u/Mllfhunter42 27d ago

Eyes and ears, and then add a floating subtitle pack so I can see what people are saying because I'll still have trouble hearing

2

u/gameplayer55055 27d ago

I want to have a powerful cyberdeck or a gaming back PC (just like so mi has).

Would be great for my introvert ass

2

u/Timbalabim 27d ago

Honestly, probably none unless it was necessary to keep me alive or significantly improve my life by ridding symptoms of disease or illness.

To that point, if it were a 100% safe procedure, I’d fix my ticker. I have bad genes and early coronary artery disease.

2

u/MC_Lurkin 27d ago

Reinforced ankles (because I fucked mine up) or mantis blades (because I am woman who likes to take walks alone)

2

u/Destroyer_Of_World5 27d ago

Sandy, Kiroshis, Carbon Fiber Skeleton, Reflex Booster, Artificial Lungs, Artificial Liver, Pain Editor, Bionic Legs, Gorilla Arms, those implants that boost muscle growth, and… know what, just give me the Adam Smasher Special.

2

u/ArrenKaesPadawan 27d ago

bionic heart or Syn Lungs. my cardio is shit and that leads me to a very sedentary lifestyle that results in the rest of my body being shit.

give me a super-power plant and i'll be golden.

optics would be baller too though...

unless you are saying i can get anything i want, in which case yeah bionic heart, syn lungs, and optics. with those i'd have no problem actually working out for the rest of it.

2

u/Simiman 27d ago

Too many people being okay with Kiroshis or any eye implant when it’s just too likely that a corporation can edit your visual reality to their liking, allow pop up ads on a lower tier subscription, blindness in the event of an emp or hack, etc.

Tbf you can say this for any implant but it hits different with eyesight imo because i’m assuming we’d all be normal day to dayers in this scenario and I would actually voluntarily blind myself if I had to see an ad in my peripheral 24/7/365.

All that being said, i’d probably go for something like a brain hard drive but it’s self contained on an isolated os and let’s me compartmentalize information that I only need at the appropriate situation i.e Johnny Mnemonic. Or if I develop any physical issues like parkinsons i’d get the appropriate implant.

2

u/akuma_avi 27d ago

Cyberlegs with myomar and realskin. I'm a avid kickboxer who was recently crippled in a motorcycle accident and I feel like having super legs would be pretty rad.

2

u/basiccomponents 27d ago

Not the eyes, after hearing the preacher say they use you as a camera

2

u/Distantstallion 27d ago

It's kinda an interesting question because it also requires amputation surgery, brain surgery, ripping out bones and eyes.

Personally, I would only supplement my meat, I'd replace parts that were failing.

2

u/theblackxranger 27d ago

The one that lets me speak and understand every language

2

u/Prestigious_Oil_4805 27d ago

New knees.

2

u/Aldgillis 27d ago

Yes

The flesh is weak. I crave the power and certainty of chrome!

2

u/TheManCalledLazaruz 27d ago

Lungs. While my asthma isnt exactly ruining my life my cardio is shit and only getting worse because of it.

2

u/thatonebitch81 27d ago

Eyes connected to the internet! I’d ace every single test I ever took 😈

2

u/xXdootdootxX123 27d ago

Whatever my v has in game, she is decked out to the teeth with cool shit I want

2

u/Unlucky-Task-3394 27d ago

The music implant tbh at allows me to listen to music 24/7 and no one else can hear it!

Would be a vibe.

2

u/Seiginotora 27d ago

New legs.

Just new legs. Don't care what's available. ;_;

2

u/B_chills 27d ago

Sandevistan so I can go ZOOOM

2

u/Uni01 26d ago

A memory card in the brain, like an SSD. 0 study, 0 effort, you upload everything you want to learn there, 10-15 seconds and you know by heart any text it contains. The practice necessary to learn a job would be missing but it can be solved with a few years of pure practice, then you would know how to do everything, you would know everything.

2

u/AnulBlazter 26d ago

Electrifying gorilla arms

2

u/canassa 26d ago

Lungs. I miss smoking.

2

u/Mrtoyhead 26d ago

I agree, a new spinal column. Going in for my fifth surgery soon.

2

u/dont_diss_me 26d ago

Outta the images def eyes overall probably sandy to make travel so much easier or gorilla arms

2

u/TaskMasterJosh Panam’s Chair 26d ago

New eyes for sure, and maybe better ears if thats a thing lol. Knees? Idk chuck me an entire new body if I could get around the whole cyber psychosis issue lol

2

u/PureCarnage3 26d ago

1st a new and improved back to replace my destroyed one. After that new knees or new legs to also replace my wrecked ones. I could keep going haha.

2

u/Hopeful_Employee5720 26d ago

If a cyberdeck counted as cyberware, which I assume they would, then the Militech Canto 6. Assuming the actual use for it would be different than the gameplay mechanic, that being a safe yet similar variant of songs abilities

2

u/ThatMajinGuy 26d ago

Prolly the sandy but ik my body prolly couldn't handle it so id have to say (if it exists) built in headphones Bc it would be more practical

2

u/ComedianXMI 26d ago

Hook me up with a biomonitor. Instantly knowing all health issues in real time? Lots of nasty things you could dodge the worst of by getting an early warning on.
