To begin with, it is necessary to clearly divide this series into two seasons. This is because the convoy in which everything happens is critically different.
And the second season I do not want to consider the word at all. Because it is secondary and primitive even compared to the first.
Now talking about the original first season. This is the dystopia of cyberpunk. That is, at the head of the table are technologies leading humanity into the abyss and loss of man. Of course, corporations and the whole set. And the standard romantic rambo lone hero. Which stands across. Template? Yes, of course. And more than that, it's also a noir detective. Without which history would not have happened.
Then why watch it? For entourage, effects and atmosphere. There's only this. There is no dramaturgy here, the stories of the characters are superficial, plastic, caricature. Dillems, too.
It's not a renaissance setting, but something. Along with all sorts of cyberpunks, 2077 will do.
