Well, the Swedes already invented nerve splicing IRL, so you can go chop chop on your limbs and get a prothesis that’s directly connected to your bones and nerves.
Be that as it may, I meant it doesn’t exist as it does in the game. It stands as my absolute favorite thing in CP 2077. It is- by far, the most elegant way to turn one big one into several little ones.
😀
(I’ve run a few monowire/knife only builds with no combat quickhacks. Probably the most fun I’ve had in the game)
If you like Mono-filiment whips you should read the Paratwa trilogy by Chrisopher Hinz… it’s about assassins that have 1 mind in 2 bodies, thus more eyes and coordination skills. They train from early childhood to use these Black eggs that extrude a monofilament whip… it take years to control them so they don’t whip about and cut yourself to pieces.
Burning Chrome is normally published as a collection of a few short stories (burning chrome is one story in the collection). There is an assassin that uses monofillimant wire somewhere in one of the stories.
William Gibson, who coined the term “cyberspace” in Burning Chrome, is generally regarded as the pioneer of cyberpunk
By far my favourite time killer in cyberpunk is to use the monowire to control NPC cars like a chariot, stand on the roof and hit one side and the NPC turns the other way
Currently playing through Cyberpunk just to have some kind of preparation of what is eventually to come.

Cyberpunk future will look good compared to where we’re probably headed if history is any indication.
Yeah, we’ll get all of the surveillance, climate disaster and police state without any of the cool implants…
Same! Though, I really wish monowires existed in real life.
Monofilament wire is a real thing, it just doesn’t have the tensile strength to act like it does in fiction.

Oh that sounds interesting. Thank you! I’ll look into it!
you could also read Burning Chrome…
Added to the list. Thanks! I love book suggestions.

ROFL! I had no idea that was a thing!!
