Fic/RPG Worldbuilding (Looking for Input)
 
#17
Ah, an important part of my counterexample to cyberpsychosis that got left out, is that cyber-soccer-mom's metal was installed before she was conscious again in a more than drifting-on-a-cloud-of-the-good-drugs way, so she didn't have the "wake up in a hospital, my nose itches, why isn't my arm responding? OH GOD NO ARMS!" experience. That's not to say that suddenly having, say, a 15-20% reduction in sense of touch from the all-over synthetic replacement skin and having it match the color that was on your driver's license photo from three years ago isn't a shock, and had she really picked up taht many laugh lines? So strange - but with cybernetics developed to the point that getting some installed is expected to increase a mook street thug to a miniboss with just a couple of days to recover, it makes NO GODDAMN SENSE AT ALL that a competent, reputable cyberdoc can't make quality of life issues next to a nonissue if the main point is compensating for drastic injuries.
