Greetings earthlings!
Welcome to the MadQueen Show, I am your host the MadQueen
On today's menu, we have a new Cyberpunk 2077 lore video for you, and today we're
going to talk about Night City
After the economic collapse of 1997, the American landscape changed completely: most cities
survived the collapse, but most non-urban areas were obliterated
As a result, the whole land of the country turned into one of two: a few large, densely
packed urban areas, surrounded by a vast ecological wasteland or ghost towns and Agricorp farmlands
and abandoned suburbs
This created three types of urban environments: Old Cities, Corporate Cities, and New Cities
Night City was a New City, dreamed and designed by the late visionary architect
Richard Alix Night, and founded in 1994
Established at the head of Del Colorado Bay and facing the Pacific Ocean to the west,
Night City is a modern city of the XXI century
Its wide streets and ultra-modern towers are home to over a million people, with another
four and a half million living in the greater Night City area cities of Westbrook
North Oak, Heywood, Pacifica, South Night City and Rancho Coronado
It's even pretty modern by Euro standards: you can expect to find all the modern conveniences
of a European City in any major Urban area in the States: video stations, Aerodyne vehicles,
bio-sculpt parlors, cyberware… whatever you could expect to find in Paris you can
probably find it in Night City as well
Maybe what bothers Europeans most about American cities isn't the level of technology
but the amount of it
Huge video boards screaming from every building
Monster ad-blimps cluster overhead, booming messages down twenty-four hours a day
The streets are packed with pedicabs, taxicabs, metrocars, and cyberbikes, while the skies
are a maze of speeding aerodynes, helicopters, and aero-gyros
There's a screemsheet box on any corner, and a dataterm every block, both surrounded
by holograms screeching out the latest headlines
And the weather isn't that bad either
In most cities, the acid rainfall percentage has been steadily dropping
As more and more cars are converted to non-petroleum fuels like methane, the dense, poisonous fog banks
that used to surround American cities have become less common
You don't have to buy air on the streets every day, just during the heat of summer
when the inversion layers move in
Winters in the temperate zones are cold, bright and clear
All you have to do is worry about freezing to death as you sleep in your packing case hovel
An exciting and vibrant place to live, Night City is, even more, fun to visit
world famous for its slogan: "The City on the Edge of Tomorrow", the area hosts almost nine million
tourists, conventioneers and corporate travelers every year
A planned community with an advanced rapid transit system, its own net LDL, and a Corporate
Center boasting representatives from over a dozen of the world's most famous megacorps
Night City is a shining example of the Technology Triumphant over the Troubles of the past
Night City government is a Democratic Mayoralty, with the corporate-controlled city council
Popular votes are cast via DataTerm, using IdentiCard registration software
The City Council is made up of representatives chosen by the ten largest Megacorporations
with offices in the city
There are two public hospitals in Night City, and four other private hospitals as well as
many corporate-run clinics within the Corporate Plaza
As with most American cities of the XXI century, there are also a wide number of less formal
medical services, romantically called "ripperdocs" by the popular media
These mini clinics provide emergency medical services, cyberwear installation, and drugs
prescription at reasonable prices: more or less 600 eurobucks per visit
In addition, offices of Trauma Team and REO Meatwagon are well established in Night City
Night City differs from any other American Cities in that police services are not provided
by a contract corporation
Instead, the city maintains its own independent police force, with three precinct offices
within the urban core area, while deputized corporate forces patrol the Corporate City Center
Although it suffers from a chronic lack of staff, the NCPD maintains order within the
city through the ingenious use of monitor cameras and Controlled Urban Zones
Unlike the more obvious walled Zones of Detroit and Chicago, these Controlled Zones are kept
relatively crime free though electronic security, aerial patrols with AV and aerogyro vehicles,
and close contact with deputized security forces in the Corporate Zone
Unlike many other urban areas thought the United States, you may actually find any personal
protection beyond a light caliber handgun unnecessary: Night City is Safe
Or so says the corporate advertising
Night City was born as a Dream City
Because the entrepreneur Richard Night had a dream
A dream of creating the ideal city, a city of the future so grand that all other cities
built before or after would be compared to it
His design and vision were immense, and so were the plans that he drew up for Night International
The next step would be to secure the staggering capital that would be needed to finance Night's
gigantic project
Luckily, history and the forces of a collapsing society worked on the entrepreneur's side
With the collapse, many Megacorporations were starting to look at establishing their own
urban areas: controlled zones free of poverty, crime, and debt
City governments would be corporate run, allowing optimum zoning and no anti-business elements
to interfere with corporate growth
Night's plan was tailored made for these purposes, he provided the design and construction
capacities that the Megacorps didn't have, and the Megacorps provided the raw cash
By 1992, Arasaka, EBM, and Petrochem had all tossed their hats into Night's ring
Unfortunately for Richard Night, his story doesn't have a happy ending
During its construction of Coronado City, Night International employed a large number
of innovative building styles and techniques, and this resulted in the exclusion of many
Night's old partners that, being short of money, had unwisely joined with a local and
powerful Mob leader
During the first four years of construction, there were daily threats over Night's life,
but as a proud and self-reliant man, he typically ignored them
When the threads escalated to sabotage and intimidation, Night called in his corporate
allies, who dealt with the threats in a ruthless but limited way
Finally, Richar Night's luck ran out, and on September 20th, 1998, he was shot and killed
in his penthouse at the top of the newly built Parkview Tower
Night's killer was never found
In his memory, the city was renamed Night City
Then, the scramble for power began
The corporations controlled the civic government and the Corporate Center, the Mob controlled
almost all service-related businesses
The city police, forced to kowtow to both Mob and corporate interests became totally ineffective
During this time, the gangs backed by Mob and corporate sponsors established themselves
in the remaining suburbs of the old city: the one area that never had the chance to
be added to Night's plan, the area now known as the Combat Zone, with gangs so firmly rooted
that the only way to remove them now would be to demolish the entire area
With them inside
After 11 years of chaos and street warfare, corporations decided that enough is enough,
and they battled the underworld for the control of Night City, in what now is known as the
Mob War, destroying the Mob's power base in Night City
From then on, any time the mob crossed one of the Megacorps, they made sure to do it
by the rules of Big Business
In 2077 Night City has all but healed from the ravages of the past and evolved into an armed city
It's not uncommon to see as many guns as briefcases on the crowded city streets, and
while the days of chaos may be over, the danger still remains
Society's rule collapsed before and may do so again
History can repeat itself, and there is always another gang just around the corner, waiting
for its chance to come out on the top, no matter the cost
