How Augmented Would You Be?
| One hundred percent. My body sucks, let's make a new one. And one for my cat too, while we're at it.
| 0% would be cool, like everyone else is augmented in the world and you're like a rare pure human.

| Ah shit, so this is what happens when you lack augmentations.
| As much as possible, so long as it's safe. Don't want some hacker stopping my robo heart with there smartphone.
| So long as its not a smart robo heart running flappy bird or something.
| Lungs, because I really want to smoke again (stopped 4 month ago). Liver, because drinking is/was fun and meds wouldn't do any damage anymore (hrt would be easier). Maybe the digestive System in general, because f@ck metabolism. All without Net Access and 100% BioGen mods... Wow... I'm boring.
| I'm happy as long as I get mechanical arms. I spend most of my life playing games, sooner or later i'm going to get carpal tunnel
| Surprised nobody talked about brains add-ons
| Augmented eyes would be all I need.
My eyes are trash. Of all the people I know, I have the worst vision. Hell I don't even need augments I just want my eyes fixed. Don't know if laser would work and that shit's expensive. I'm just ranting now
| Augmented legs, that allowed me to jump really high and not feel any pain hitting the ground, kinda like the portal boots. That'd be pretty sick. Matrix (as in the movie) type addons would also be sweet, anything that you could install or uninstall as you pleased.
| If your body isn't more machine than man, you're not thinking far enough.
| As much as I need to became cuter.
like I would love new skin that wont grow body hair or something to make htr easier.
| Just what's necessary. It's like using too much proprietary technology- eventually you're going to run into issues with licensing and other garbage, and you may soon find that you don't own much, if any, part of your body. Imagine a real world scenario from "Repo: Genetic Opera" where assholes come after you to repossess your arms or eyes due to "using [the product] in a manner not licensed in your contract."
| I only need one thing:
Augmented gender.
| I'd augment one of my eye because I too am tired of having shit vision. I'd keep the other one though in case the new one malfunctions. I can wear a monocle this way, so it's a plus.
Having augmented organs sounds nice. While there won't be any incredible feats of physical strenght or technological gizmos to tinker with, life will become a whole lot easier.
And I'm most curious about what happens when instead of augmented muscles, people opt for augmented bones.
| My body will be one hundred percent open source components. Eating and sleeping can fall in a ditch.
| augmented DICK
| Dorothy doesn't like that though :')
| What about DNA modification? There's a chance it could create catgirls so count me in
| EVERYTHING! especially brain. Prefferably open source
| As much as I could get away with. But I'd prefer more mechanical upgrades than fully electronic, because fuck EMPs and all that.
| Is augmentation unhealthy?
| People all talk about mechanical or electronical augmentations, but what about genetic enhancements?

Unless you plan on being a brain in a robotic frame fully...
It can be unheathy obiviously.
Many side effects, the quality and skill of the person and augmentations, emotion side effects, rejection of neural/chemical augs ect.
Alot of things WILL GO WRONG.
There cant be perfection without failure first.
| Can there be perfection w/out catgirls tho

If I had the choice, I'd go with bioware over cyberware any day, tbh. But I imagine that, just like in Shadowrun and even Neuromancer, bioware's probably gonna be a hella lot more expensive.
| E.G, IRL today we can 3D print working, fully automated prosthetic hands with opposable thumbs and fingers, but how long does it take just to regrow skin for burn victims? And how much does it cost?
One thing's for sure, the augmented future is only going to intensify class division like never before. Deus Ex and Deus Ex HR were pretty realistic in that vein.
| Shits are gonna get interesting
| Bio/Neural Enhancements are the way to go as I see it.
Cybernetic/Mechanical is risky as you could permanantly damage your body without recourse.
At least with Bio/Neural you can get something decent done without some issues.
| 100%
Robodick, roboass, the gangs all here
| I'd probably replace my legs, and possibly a few internal organs, the only other thing would be some sort of closed neural uplink
| I have trash vision, but I'll just replace my right eye since it's my dominant eye(with vision enhancement), leaving the left one "al natural" just in case of a malfunction/EMP, just using a monocle to fix its vision or laser correct it if possible. Roboarms too, if possible with a gyro mount to help with recoil and precision aiming. Also, I would love to have a commlink or deck cyberimplanted.
| I'm thinking the correct answer is to convert as fully as possible and remove all-natural humans.
| Can I just be a Lilim?
| The first and foremost: ears. I want to be able to listen music without earplugs. Then maybe a liver or something like that.
| just plug my brain into a tron-like simulated reality and we can call it good
| Nanomachines son.
Also I would try to have enhance hearing and probably change out my eyes for ones that csn use NV ect.

| I'm thinking I'd be okay with like 20% of my body being upgrades. Like 1 mechanical arm or something.
