“So You Wanna be an EdgeRunner” is the hot new show that’s captured the hearts and minds of young punks. The show consists of the host, Chip Micro, surprising Night City residents with different pop-up game shows. Chip is clearly a fan of the classics. He started by copying simple games shows like “Hollywood Squares” and “The Price is Right”, but the latest shows transformed into something much more shocking. Chip streamed an episode a month ago where a contestant died from a heart attack. They cut the stream early, but the viewsskyrocketed.
What is the problem with a game show?
NCPD’s wanted posters have made it very clear what’s wrong with the show. It’s inciting violence in the populace. It’s transmitting illegally within the city. The show inspired different communities in night city to copy the format. These pop ups can range from young teens being nuisances, to organized gang violence. Chip Micro loves these knock offs. They can’t do it like he can, they spread the message for him, and they help obfuscate his trail from the cops.
