I would love to see a proper horror game about the Cybermen (with NOTHING held back). The origins, process of becoming one, being chased by them, everything. The Cybermen are a terrifying concept, and I would pay top dollar for such a horror game to become a reality.
The part about Cybermen that scares me the most is...Even when you are converted into one of them...That's still 'you' in there. You still have your memories, thoughts, and sense of self..Only your emotions are stripped away. You don't forget who you used to be, but you stop caring about your old life as your body is gradually replaced with metal and plastic, piece by piece.
And of course there's no guarantee that your emotions would be the first piece of you to be removed. As we see in 'Attack of the Cybermen' some captives who try to escape have already been partially converted. Their minds and emotions are intact, but not all of their bodies are...
Just imagine being captured by Cybermen and being forced through a process of systemic and gradual 'conversion' where your body is cut up and replaced by prosthesis, piece by piece, until eventually you no longer have the capacity to care...
I always love these videos. What creeps me out about the cybermen is that its never clear WHAT they are. are they still alive and emotionally blank, driven to convert others because they like the way they are after, or they could be machines that believe they are still alive but are actually just preserved flesh driven by their cybernetics to carry out their given purpose.
I have a chronic pain disorder, which makes the Cybermen especially terrifying for me. I often wished I could trade my body in for one that isn't in constant pain but after watching the episodes with the return of the Modassian Cybermen...yeah, enough said really.
Both in esthetic, story, and tone. The Cybermen are just superior in every aspect compared to Cyberpunk. Cyberpunk exists for glamor, and to glorify cybernetics in humans. The Cybermen are the real warning, and what will actually happen had humanity went down that route.
There’s a reason I take the cybermen as a name, especially as a horror artist.
great reference to the Torchwood episode Cyber woman I remember watching it with my Brother. I think it explained what they are better than Doctor who did in Rise of the Cybermen and Age of steel
The Cybermen are awesome villains and they are better IMO than the Daleks, and also in Blake,s Seven the Mutoids are like the Cybermen they have their emotions and memories erased because emotions and memories are an impediment to the Cybermen, the Mutoids and even the Borg in Star Trek Generation too in STNG the Borg are both male and female whereas the Cybermen are exclusively male but even woman have been turned into Cybermen and they are not called Cyberwomen .
WE WILLL SUUURVVIVVVEE! What a beautiful fantastic video and dare I say an upgrade on the original it’s beautifully edited and u bringing up an ancient god like evil reminded me of something when will we get a review of pyramids of mars? Come on for Ebraheam sake where is it
