Weird thinking about how it’s just a year between Adam Smasher seeming like an absolute beast and beating the living hell out of a seemingly invincible crew and a suit that was meant to be an upgrade for him and then getting beaten to death by someone using a dildo as a weapon.
The "let you down" is also a great track for that kind off thing (actually in my opinion its a better song but it wasnt heard that many times in edgerunners so i dont get nostalgic)
@@ramon4184 He is, his tolerance was something else. Any bodies and minds would break apart from the stuffs he'd been geared with. Hell even the characters in the show didn't shy to surpress their shock with it
honestly there’s no reason this show matter fact the cyberpunk universe as a whole should have this much of a hold over me 😭 i deadass haven’t had this much fun in a long time
Crazy if you think about the fact that David died in 2076 and this whole thing was canon. They even named a Drink in the afterlife after him (The David Martinez)
My favorite thing about the cyberpunk universe is that the edge runners gang weren’t legends, they quite literally were a small gang and relatively unknown. It adds to the beauty of the world night city really does eat you up and spit you out.
You might remember it differently, but they were legends. They had multiple jobs that had to do with the mega corporations such as Arasaka and Militech, people you don't fuck with. It was mentioned several times that David had gotten a reputation, so at the very least, they definitely weren't an unknown crew. As legends go, the crew went out with a bang, taking out a well-known fixer, hundreds of members of both Militech and Arasaka. Even needing the most powerful cyberpsycho possibly to exist, Adam Smasher, to stop them in their tracks. The game also recognized David as a legend. In the afterlife, a bar/nightclub, you get a drink named after you if you're a legend. A David Martinez is a drink at the bar, implying a legendary status.
@@shaethynhughes4119 I said relatively unknown and David is the only one who went down as legend in the bar. Adam Smasher demolished what was left of the group in minutes and for as many jobs as they did the status quo of the world won’t change. I am in no way downplaying how much you should like the group, that’s kinda the whole point but quite literally no one else is mentioned in any meaningful way in the cyberpunk story and there are no changes to Vs story.
David turning into a legend for attempting such a crazy gig was awesome to see in Afterlife, while he doesnt stack up with the other legends, hes just like Jackie to me
The end credit song in the final episode with lucy it made me cry a bit god cyberpunk for all its fault was one of the best if not greatest story snd atmosphere to ever exist
Bruh I said the same thing. Couple days after I finished Cyberpunk Edgerunners, I did my upper body workout and as I did I screamed “Adam Smasher….. IM COMIN FOR YOU!!!” Gotta remember when I beat his ass infinite times. When I finish him off, I gotta shout out 4 Choomba. Johnny. Becca. David. Jackie.
@Armstrong Louis It's okay. I'm not gonna get affected by a comment made by someone raised in a dumpster. Where are your manners, boy? You insolent muppet.
Bro i swear. These songs hitting so damn painful after watching that anime. I'd probably say *Woah, thats a nice song* If i listened to them before watching it. But no. It just hits you with pure pain.
Edgerunners gave me vibe of punks trying to Rock the world which they did, just couldn't handle Blast of the Rock, Honestly the True Legen is YOU V the strongest, baddest of all Vincent A.K.A V A.K.A YOU!!
They was such legends that nobody in the afterlife ever heard of them nor drinks named after them. V is legend even before they took down a very powerful corpo. "S/he they say came back from the dead and killed many before that, let's go!" - this is from a quest where you drive off punks trying to steal from a street vender because his daughter went to work for a corpo. Yet not ever a single mention anywhere (talking after the edge runner patch here) about them. Just a few lack luster ugly easter eggs at best.
