I suppose any of those would work, a long as the players all agree to be on the same 'team'.
Word. Yea, I really don't play a game of any other sort, particularly in pbp and never unless that's really part of the design of the rpg system at hand, which it's not for Genesys.

So, yes, we could talk about if, or how well, or the exact nature of how your PCs would all know each other in advance of the first scene. But part of the "social contract" of the game would be that it's cooperative.

Maybe someone takes up the mantle of a folk hero, Dread Pirate Roberts style?
Interesting idea. Any thoughts on what a cyberpunk folk hero like that might look like? Basically just a modern-day Robin Hood? Or maybe an underground guild-like organization that does things to lift up the disenfranchised? Some internet-personality that web-casts exploits?

That said, I wouldn't want the social justice tones to hit too close to reality with the world as it is these days and in that way potentially not be much if an "escape", or even politically inflammatory...

Maybe playing a team that a big company tasked with stopping the hackers, they could even be double agents if that's not tooo complicated.
Right, so this is kind of the cyberpunk RPG campaign default I think? And I'm fine with that, but also wanted to see if anything else or more specific interested you guys.

My main thought was, whatever it is, I just want it all to feel cyberpunky/bring out the setting and genre.
