Tips: 0.25 INK

Hi all,
As I'm sure so many people here have seen that numerous cyberpunk etc things have come out.
A lot of my ideas were pulled from Altered Carbon, Shadow Run, Ghost in the Shell, etc if I'm totally honest. I have a rough idea that's been run through once, but not super extensively. I would like to see people creating Mafia/Yakuza, Corporations, Law Enforcement, Business Owners, anything really you can think of. The idea is to create a world with in character conflict, and possibly a long term thing for players to enjoy.
But before I go creating anything, I want to gauge interest.
Here's a rough synopsis/starter below:
The year is 2444 technology has advanced significantly. The government is corrupt, it cannot be trusted in any way shape or forum. Gangsters, Mobsters, Mafia, Yakuza you name it pretty much run nearly anything and everything.
There are a few good souls left, but they keep their heads low, some have even managed infiltrate and throw these establishments for a loop. Each has a special skills set whether its with electronics, the computer systems, weaponry you name it.
Urban expansion and sprawl has resulted in the merging of major cities, creating supercities like New Los Angeles now taking up nearly half of the west coast and New Vegas the Great Basin. The great majority of people have left the countryside and rural areas for the cities. The minor cities that were not swallowed by the expansion are desolated shells of their former selves.
There are rumors that a underground society has made it's home these in these shells. But few seem to be able to find themselves possessing the courage to seek out the truth or to find out for themselves.
These things have not left the earth unscarred, the skys above the cities are under perpetual darkness called 'Sky Burn'. Rainfall is acid from the chemicals polluting the air, and has decimated much of the American Bread basket placing food at a premium.
This is a future imperfect. Will you be part of the underground resistance against this change or will you accept things as they are and continue to live your life out as it currently is?
