Absolutely loved Edgerunners 2, my only gripe is that netrunners generate so much heat that they have to ice bath or end up like Songbird. Even with advanced AI, it should burn out the user unless theyβre specced for netrunning.
Neither D nor Talia have to deal with any drawbacks of intense netrunning and essentially get overclocked with no damage.
Then again, Im putting the ending down to Trigger going full anime and the super powers being a delusion rather than actual canon? The fact that all videos of it going down have been wiped means [ redacted ] doesnβt have to be justified in the next game?
