I want the Trigger ending to Cyperpunk Edgerunners where it's revealed that cyberpsychosis is a corpo plot to keep the workers/humanity down and you can defeat it by going beyond the impossible and kicking reason to the curb.

Cyberpunk Red more or less has the same take as 2077.
And obviously at the end of the day it was just a quickly slapped together excuse for there being a limit on what can be installed so that every PC doesn't get six grenade launcher arms.
Also for what it's worth imo David's descent into "cyberpsychosis" is also parallel to a descent into regular psychosis due to having increasingly bad things happen to him (everyone he loves dies or gets kidnapped etc). In addition, the cyberskeleton seems to basically kill its user, which more or less matches up with the 2077 way of doing things. The characters in the show just don't know it because they're also subject to the propaganda and think "oh it's cyberpsychosis". Obviously this is all inferred and may be too generous to Trigger.
Preventing me from getting six grenade launcher arms is fascism
For every grenade launcher arm you install, I have to give the cops two more to maintain balance. Please reconsider
Curious how the cops don't get this "cyberpsychosis" from too many grenade launcher arms but I do. Very convenient for the state monopoly on violence.
