People shit all over CP2077 as a game and for its rather poorly-presented plot, but the lore that's in there is fucking good. There's also accounts of two spontaneous worker rebellions on the first off-planet permanent space stations, wherein the executives didn't take into account that the workers outnumbered them and the security guards ten to one and they only had so many stun gun charges, and were subsequently captured by the workers, who graciously allowed them to depart the station unharmed directly out the airlock without EVA suits. The newscasts mention the nerve gas flooding that will occur later in the day to take care of the mutant rat/homeless population problem (same city department handles both). A worker's rights group in the beginning stages of planning a city-wide general strike are slaughtered by private security, sanctioned by the city to ensure that they were not able to cause millions of credits in potential profit loss. People get required to get augmented limbs installed to keep their job, and then get the limbs repossessed when the company makes shitty business decisions and shuts down.
Makes me pretty sure Mike Pondsmith is an anarchist, or at least was in his younger days. Lots of amazing shit in there if you dig around and read all the shards.

sounds like it would have made a good book but instead became a bad videogame
