Woke up this morning from a dream about a cyberpunk netrunner version of pokemon - like collecting little AI daemons and using them to hack the planet.

This has to already exist, right?

I would kind of want it to have like a light dating-sim interaction with the daemons like a better version of Shin Megami Tensei and the demon talk option.

That is, you convince the daemons to join you through knowing what they are and what they want, not just throw a capture ball.

Maybe "evolutions" can be more like loyalty missions where one of your daemons comes to you for something and they expand when you get it done for them

tl;dr: I've been playing a lot of Pokemon & Megaten games over the past month and kind of want to make something like them but probably won't get around to it :)
