Hello!

I got into Sinless because I am a fan of Courtney's stuff and because I've always been interested in Shadowrun but intimidated by the ruleset. Now that I have the rules I really want to get into the inspirations, literary, digital, film, any and all media. What is your Cyberpunk appendix N?

This is a great question. People will, like be like 'this isn't good', for something sometimes, but that's because they are judging the works from the perspective of someone who demands it conforms to them.

There is a giant list of cyberpunk media on the internet, but things that personally inspired me?
Shadowrun (Obviously) (TTRPG)
Johnny Mnemonic (Movie)
Dark City (movie)
Chaos Wars (Computer game)
Stop Thief (Board Game)
Thunder Road (Board game)
Alita (Anime/Manga)
Fist of the North Star (Anime/Manga)
Akira (Anime/Manga)
Neuromancer/MonaLisa Overdrive, all of the work by Gibson, really.
Snow Crash
FF X/X-2 was a big inspiration for the shaman stuff
Action and Car Chase movies.

There are 10,000 things I missed, but these are the primary influences for Sinless.
