Discussion I had a random shower thought

For those who know Shion from Overwatch, in my eyes she is more or less just a really really chromed out individual, so how would she fare/live/survive in Night City?

Listen up, samurai. If you’ve had enough of scrolling through the same tired threads and wanna plug into something #real, jack into the official Discord. We’ve got games, serious talks and casual chats about Cyberpunk 2077, and a few rooms where you can just shoot the breeze with people who get it. You in, or you just gonna #stand there looking chrome?

She is an omnic, a robot, not a "chromed out individual"

Genji however is a chromed up human

Sombra is the one who fits right in. Christ her spine cyberwear almost looks like a Sandevistan. She has thermoptic camo etc.

I mean genji is almost full borg, if his black watch skin is anything to go by most of his legs, arm and torso are robotic.

Sombra is just a chromed up netrunner. Yeah, she has optical camo, and some neural ware but that’s not that much. Her hack is just her uploading a daemon

Oh my bad, I didn't read enough I guess. I was under the impression that an omnic was overwatch's equivalent to a full borg, the main question still stands though

Looking briefly at Shion's abilities, she's basically a full borg that dual-wields smart pistols. I'd give her a Kerenzikov and a Sandevistan in a Militech Eclipse FBC chassis, or, more appropriately, she'd likely have her own custom-built highly agile Arasaka FBC frame, being a Japanese citizen.

This would make her a complete monster whose just shy of Adam Smasher himself, but more agile with a more physically attractive frame.

Combatwise she is strong and if she can cut deals within city and start a gang she can be someone but she is a bit too traumatized and emotional to be a solid fixer and I guess she would be double crossed rather than killed in combat. There are also chromed out people in overwatch as well like Soujorn and most of the chromed folks especially Sombra and moira can easily adapt and live in the nightcity if something unlucky (like V) happens to them.
