Cyborg, or not to Cyborg?

[Tonitrus]

Pretty simple question.  Would you willingly replace perfectly good body parts, or implant cybernetic enhancements (lets presume they are bug/defect free) into your brain/head?

Obviously, full-limb replacements are likely ridiculous science fiction...sure, you could replace your arm with a giant metal appendage, but then the rest of your bodily support system would suffer.  So we're likely talking something that would have to be more like more subtle artificial muscle/ligament enhancements, and even then, would likely require a comprehensive, full-body enhancement (to support whatever your new super-strength/speed is trying to do)  And then also, of course, there is a functional computer-brain interface...i.e. sliding chips into you head to grant instant knowledge/data/vocabulary.

Would you go cyborg proactively/voluntarily?  Only if you normal parts failed due to age/injury?  Would you feel like you're trading in part of your natural soul by implanting a CPU into your noggin?

[Legbiter]

Depends on how many humanity points it would cost. I can't afford to go down too much in the EMP stat.

[Zanza]

I think a datajack is just 0.5 essence points, so that might be worth it. Cybereyes too.

[The Brain]

Give me some perfectly good body parts and I'll think about it.

[Siege]

I don't recommend it right now.
Wait until nanotechnology matures and nano brain interface s become available and you can use enhancements without disrupting surgery.

[Iormlund]

Yes to enhance, but only as long as the look and feel remained human.

[MadImmortalMan]

Sure.

[MadImmortalMan]

Of course, I'd have to be careful because the bloody NSA will try to hack into my head, but hey.

[jimmy olsen]

I already have metal plates and 17 screws in my right leg.

[Razgovory]

Sure.

Hearing aids have come a long way.

[CountDeMoney]

I dunno, man.  Are these American-produced UNION YES! prosthetics, or are they overseas-produced prosthetics?  I have supply chain concerns.

[Monoriu]

If it is for replacement of defective body parts, then my answer is hell yes.  If there is nothing wrong with my natural part, then the answer is no.  The reason being I don't think cybernetics are sufficiently developed in my life time to warrant the risk.  That's not a factor if said natural body part is no longer working anyway. 

[CountDeMoney]

A penile replacement with deployable JDAM tail fins would be kinda cool.

[Ideologue]

Replace it all.  Turns out the new flesh sucks.

[garbon]

A penile replacement with deployable JDAM tail fins would be kinda cool.

For ripping open an orifice?
