That's the general view of my players too, Bladerunner. Though one of
them has never seen the film, he has a good idea from the pictures
produced in some magazines and books, as to what he thinks he sees,
though he spends more time watching fillms like Die Hard and Terminator,
and sees it more that way. Me, I see it as life Look at any city
street, make it a bit more grubby, more shadowy, take away some of the
more civilised aspects of it (street lights and such), and replace them
with loud neon signs and trid sets. Crowd the streets and add a little
smog.
Close to Bladerunner, but as wet. :-)
