Got some crafting skills but, most were effectively useless. Even when they stack the boosts are too negligible to do anything. Gotta get a ton more scraping and crafting skills to make it worth anything. Grinding gun skills in game are dangerous and in reality is far too costly. Many of the skills boost my learning speed but, how much of it can be transferred to real life or the stupid game once I can finally control myself? Athletic and basic combat skills will always be good, if I could get skills wearing business suits I'd look more natural if I ever needed to wear one in real life....oh shit I completely forgot medical.
Getting on, I scrap every piece of cyberwear I had replaced that was sitting in my inventory, and save load to repeat until I get the skills.
Focusing only on the group skills
Scrapping Cyberware: Scrap Cyberware as though your crafting level was 0.1% greater and gain more experience.
Scrapping Cyberware Mods: Scrap Cyberware Mods as though your crafting skill is 0.1% higher and gain more experience.
Scrapping Frontal Vortex Cyberware: Scrap Frontal Vortex Cyberware as though your crafting skill and technical ability are 0.1% higher.
Scrapping Nervous System Cyberware: Scrap Nervous System Cyberware as though your crafting skill and technical ability are 0.1% higher.
Scrapping Sandevistan Cyberware Mods: Scrap Sandevistan Cyberware Mods as though your intelligence and technical ability are 0.1% higher.
I'm failing to see the pattern but neat? Maybe a few levels of these and I could learn to understand the cybernetics? Bring a bit of it into the real world? It's a stretch I've gotta sleep.
-one isekai cutscene where I can't control my body later-
"Fuck!!!!"
"I HATE V!!! I HATE NIGHT CITY!!! I HATE CYBERPUNK!!!!"
Some hyperventilating later I settle from the understandable reaction to sleeping with a hooker while on 3 different drugs, puking on her, and getting my ass kicked for it, all while I couldn't control my body, not a fun ride.
Ok gotta get some drug resistance fast. Made myself an omelette and cracked open a beer, after my new...'training' breakfast. It was time to workout, a forty-five minute jog from my apartment to me to an old abandoned stripmall, just 4 ships, with kudzu over growing one side. Shouldn't have any alarms so I climbed it from everyside that wasn't street facing to practice parkour. Two hours later drenched in sweat and breathing heavy but felt like I could keep going. Nah shouldn't risk it. Heading to a nearby gas station I toweled off and bought a greasy lunch. After that I ran back to my apartment, a short stop by police 'because I was running' later and I made it back.
Next was grinding in fallout 76, I focused on trying to get reverse engineering skills as those seemed like a great fit for cyberpunk. Managed to add a decent handful of skills to my lists but no group skills, not much luck finding the cyberpunk junk items in fallout either, I mean a gold chain, condoms, bubblegum. Really.
Going to sleep was dreadful took a couple hours, it's nuts last time I was terrified of dying and looking forward to it but this, is hell. At least it'll get better once the cutscene ends ..
A week of training, my part-time job, and gigs later I finally got some decent group reverse engineering skills(pipe, pipe revolver, bolt action pipe, 10mm pistol, hunting rifle, and pump shotgun)...which were still useless. Maybe four more will give me something good?
My last goal was all about extending my survival in my isekai dream, and that failed spectacularly, so this time I'll focus on reality, what do I want.... that shouldn't feel like a trick question! I've got enough to eat, my health, fitness, and capabilities are all improving, wouldn't say I'm happy but, I guess I just no longer have major needs, what are my wants? Do I need a threat for motivation? No that's stupid but with no motivation I'll just have a slightly longer live, and I'm ok with that...but not happy that I'm ok with that. Besides exercise what real world skills can I gain from my current games? I've got a ton of crafting but that shouldn't really be my focus cause I don't wanna be some crafting hermit. The slight boost I've gotten to combat is...nice, but I'll never be a super hero or martial arts master. Whatever I'll just look through the store.
A few clicks later I freeze, there are now items from my time in galaxy..... Why haven't I looked here?!? I mean besides everything being either weird or useless until now, and lotsa this is definitely weird and useless, but water meditation is here, with that....with that I can grow so much. I buy it for a mere 100 points, my mind get flooded with info and it hits me, while any moving water in any world will generate something that can technically be used as mana for those with the right talent(which I have one thousandth of) but my world doesn't have mana so this is...useless. Well mostly useless, it will take far longer to use, possible even longer than I live, but any energy gained will enhance me slightly. Or I could invent a way to make mana, my eso staff makes mana, it's not water mana, healing Mana at best but it's something? Oh shit, I need a ton of crafting skills... If I get all the fire and ice staff crafting skills then buy a fire and ice staffs I might be able to make a combination but....Jesus that'll take a ton of grinding.
Oooh or I can just buy all of my galaxy skills.... The number of isekai skills purchasable is restricted to my level in that isekai....I had literal super human potential, of so many types, so many skills better than my system gives, and wasted them all for a reverse power leveling plan. T.T Dangit if I knew that...I probably would've gotten water meditation anyways, it's a great skill if I can find a way to use it. Well I know better for cyberpunk, I've gotta reach max level. But I've still got months left until I take control. ESO, is a good start, I'll focus on Inferno staves, research for for infused will hopefully help me learn to understand magic on staves, I'll do the same with daggers, and for clothing... Reinforced Boots will be my goal. Crafting, scraping, repairing, and upgrading these will be easy enough but the research will take time. 1 hour each, I can do 7 at a time that's...calculator says... 143 times or hours. Two weeks later had all...but the research skills what the hell!?!
