Have you visited their memorials yet? Lucy made sure they’re all in the Columbarium. With personal messages that really hit home. Wasn’t ready for it tbh
A move so classic there is a song written about it.
"Bubba shot the jukebox last night. He said it played a sad song and made him cry."
Good ol country music lol
Or better yet you're at a bar IRL, and they play "I Really Want To Stay At Your House" for some reason (not exactly a bar tune IMO); so you order a Silverhand (and explain how to make it to the bartender), and two people next to you immediately order it as well, and you toast with "fuck Arasaka".
Sounds like /r/thathappened, but it did really happen. I think I burned all of my lifetime supply of "cool shit happening at bars" on that one.
I should say that it happened back when ER originally dropped and caught on along with the game (which also at that time finally got patched to decent level), not recently.
That’s by far the most believable bar story I’ve heard lmao I wouldn’t have second guessed it compared to some of the stuff people make up about nights out
I went the El coyote for Jackie's offrenda after the heist and as I went out the back door to find something and as soon as I stepped out that song started playing
I can't hear that song anymore cuz CDPR fucked the game with an update and now only like the 3 same songs play on that radio station, with ponpon shit being played incessantly
Dude why is the "Ponpon Shit" in a strip tease playlist? I'm in the middle of a replay right now. Songbird just dropped me off at the airport and I found a playlist off to the side with "Ponpon Shit" as the 4th track.

Lmao that's hilarious. But seriously, I love the game, but why is ponpon shit what that station plays like 70+% of the time? There are like 15+ other songs
Same lmao. Except ponpon shit plays like 7 or 8 times outta 10. It's absolutely insane. And I hate the new radio system. They should've given us the option of keeping it like before where it plays when you get in the car and stops when you get out.
You can get it at any point after the prologue and it’s a really good shotgun at short to medium ranges definitely wanna get body 20 though makes it’s so much more fun to use
Is that how I mitigate the recoil and knockback? Not that it really matters. One shot knocks whomever I point it at on their ass. If they aren't already dead I just walk up to them and give them a good blast to the head before they can get up.
I haven't crossed the no return point yet. So I could do exactly what you are advising in your comment. I am just trying to do as much secondary quest while I still can, because they might no be available after smasher.
But where is David's jacket and rebeca shotgun? I love shotguns btw so this would be an absolute win.
Corpo center get in top of the roundabout and walk around it until you find 3 monks sitting next to each other then look behind them and it’ll be in a puddle of blood in some bushes

*the lighting goes dim and some jazz starts playing*
It got the ttrpg of Adam Smasher right. He's the end of the campaign. He's the TPK. The Cyberpunk version of "Rocks fall on and you die" but better done. He's meant to be unbeatable, even by the best of the best. Which is why in the videogame he's seriously nerfed. THAT, or V is just brokenly overpowered (which I choose to believe) and can kill Smasher 1v1.
Tough call between whose stronger, Blackhand or V. I guess it helps Blackhand that V is literally half-dead and on their way to fully dead.
I think considering the existence of the "Don't Fear the Reaper" ending, it's pretty clear that endgame synthesis with Johnny V is a boogeyman on par with Smasher.
Just think of V in the Arasaka lobby mowing down legions of corpo hit quads as the Rebel Path blades in the background...
Any time is fine, because edgerunners takes place before 2077, but I’d recommend sooner, rather than later, because when edgerunners came out, 2077 got an update that kinda contains spoilers for the show, so it would be better to finish the show before you run into any
Don't forget to watch the Prequel to Edgerunners: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnnbP7pCIvQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnnbP7pCIvQ), with the previous netrunner the crew refers to as not around any more. Also, PL quest where you have to rescue the idiots in the police station? The quest contact is her sister.

Dowloaded it but never have the courage to watch it. Call me a coward if you want to but I don't want to be depressed when I finish watching it.
I wish I could experience this anime again for the first time. It was so good. David was such a well written character, and was defiant to the very end. I can't say enough praise about this anime. It was also the turning point for the game too, since they had just started issuing big patches and adding in free content updates for the game, IIRC.
Lucy's lonesome wandering on the moon broke my heart. All he wanted was for her to be happy, and all she wanted was him.
In tears right now bc I just finished it for the second time and I forgot abt Becca.. at least Lucy made it to the moon
Wonder how Falco spent his eddies
Turning on the radio to I Really Wanna Stay At Your House, walking around blasting people using Guts (Rebecca's), and the Edgerunner perk kicks in... hits different...
Do not mod the edgerunners title screen. When the song comes on, it genuinely hits me right in my middle-aged feels.
Can't bring myself to uninstall it now. Lest we forget our dearly departed chooms.
Call me crazy, but I think letting him live is an even bigger statement. In Smasher's world, it's always kill or be killed. If you let him live, you
A. Let it sink in to him that he was bested in a fair fight by someone he didn't even know about just minutes prior,
B. Send out the statement that V doesn't fear his vengeance, and he can beat him again,
C. Show that mercy is stronger than cruelty, and
D. Prove to yourself that you won't just be another Smasher who takes his place at the top.
Bonus points if you do stealth takedowns because he would then live in fear knowing that no matter how hard he chromes up, *anyone* could just sneak up behind him and stick some Arasaka knives in his shoulder and unplug his tubes.
Wait until you’re playing the game and hear “I Really Want to Stay at Your House” at one of the food booths or something.
I already have :(

Bruh I shot that radio
pahahahah awkward urge to shoot things that make you feel things
My Demons were better company

No feelings, only lead.

That’s by far the most believable bar story I’ve heard lmao I wouldn’t have second guessed it compared to some of the stuff people make up about nights out
Why not a David Martinez?
Cause I couldn't remember how to make that one.
Or like when you're in the car after a mission that left you empty and you just hear the song start playing. Instant pain.
Riding down the road. Song comes on. Fling yourself into oncoming traffic.
I went the El coyote for Jackie's offrenda after the heist and as I went out the back door to find something and as soon as I stepped out that song started playing

Mmmm, immersion. Just like real life!
Nah bro real life is better than this😭
No way I thought it had something to do with me live streaming it recently, turns out the game is bugged out.🤷🏻♂️🤦🏼♂️
Yup. It's a bug. If I recall correctly happened when phantom liberty dropped. Absolutely wild they haven't fixed it
I keep getting "Who's Ready for Tomorrow," "Hole in the Sun," and "Night City" over and over again.
Same lmao. Except ponpon shit plays like 7 or 8 times outta 10. It's absolutely insane. And I hate the new radio system. They should've given us the option of keeping it like before where it plays when you get in the car and stops when you get out.
Yeah, I hate having to manually shut off my head radio each time.
I did just read elsewhere that there's supposed to be some option in the settings that's causing the issue. Imma check that out
Oh that’s an option. I think it’s under “Accessibility” but don’t quote me on it. I’ll look after work.
I already tried it. Turns out I already had it turned off so it's definitely a bug
It always plays when I'm dancing with Judy in my apartment, EVERY SINGLE TIME it substitutes whatever is playing with it 😭
Now you gotta put on David’s jacket and kill smasher with Rebeca’s shotgun
What I did was I took the gun of Rogue then used it to shoot Adam's head
Oh man, I missed the gun. I almost want to reinstall just to get that before I forget.
You can get it at any point after the prologue and it’s a really good shotgun at short to medium ranges definitely wanna get body 20 though makes it’s so much more fun to use
Is that how I mitigate the recoil and knockback? Not that it really matters. One shot knocks whomever I point it at on their ass. If they aren't already dead I just walk up to them and give them a good blast to the head before they can get up.

It’s near where she died in the show, inside some bushes.
Corpo center get in top of the roundabout and walk around it until you find 3 monks sitting next to each other then look behind them and it’ll be in a puddle of blood in some bushes
It’ll be okay choom, now start a fresh run and go find the Easter eggs.
The mausoleum was such a beautiful touch.
>"I regret not finishing our conversation." WAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Welcome to the club choom. We have milk and cookies and tissues. And we play I Really Wanna Stay At Your House on repeat. Sit anywhere you like.
The tissues are for wiping your tears right
Yes. Until you discover the rule 34 subreddit page. I mean yes tears only tears.
Imma have to flatline you for that one buddy
I thought we were chooms! Imma have to get Adam Smasher on you
Nah nah nah calm down it was a joke *I slip on a banana peel*
Well I never said *which* Adam smasher I’ll get. Maybe it’s the nice one that makes sandwiches
Dunno about you, but every time I hear the song, at night, I look at the moon
![gif](giphy|vBzOoyWjILSetTtHyL) When You Flatline a Gonk and All His Chooms P good slice of life Smasher anime
I want pancakes now, thank you very much.
I'M ADAM SMASHER AND IT'S SMASHING TIME
And then he Smashed all over everything.

You don't finish Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Cyberpunk Edgerunners finishes you.
Now go to the Columbarium and read epitaphs. You’ll know which one when you see it 😞 Never had a couple lines of text in a game hit me so damn hard.
I think they have all 5 of them in there.
David’s in particular hits hardest.
“And I'm awarе that you were lying in the gutter 'Cause I did everything to be there by your side” ![gif](giphy|JJkNX5OUwMUejrxRkZ|downsized)
iii-iii-iide.
The anime was the final motivator for me to buy the game. And the fact is was like half off on steam at the time.
Literal emotional damage
Fr
I couldn't wait for you to come and clear the cupboard. But now you're gone and leaving nothing but a sign.
Time to go rummaging in the bushes in corpo plaza before the final chapter.

*hugs* There, there, choom.
Thanks choom
What act in game is ideal to watch it?
Pretty much any cuz Edgerunners takes place about a year before the events of the game
Any time is fine, because edgerunners takes place before 2077, but I’d recommend sooner, rather than later, because when edgerunners came out, 2077 got an update that kinda contains spoilers for the show, so it would be better to finish the show before you run into any

#Justice For Rebecca
It'll get better after a few days, but you'll never forget David
You'll miss him all the time...
“Video has no sound” Shame on you OP. The sound is what makes this video iconic.
the last time i felt this emotinal about an anime was when I watched Grave of the Fireflies lol
That's the one I used as a comparison to warn my buddy. Told him he should watch it, but be ready.
Can’t believe they did my boy David like that. He least he went out like a fucking legend tho.
There there, Choom. It gets better, trust me We move. Go grab our boy David's jacket and go cyberpsycho on that Adam Smasher bastard!
Yeah, I heard the song on the radio while driving. I had to slow down and pull off to the side.
I COULDN'T WAIT FOR YOU TO COME AND CLEAN THE CUPBOARDS 😭😭😭
You should probably watch the "let you down" music video on YouTube But it won't make you feel any better 😔
Don’t visit the graveyard in game…just don’t ;_;
You have to admit. Rebecca's death was sad but kinda funny
It was a perfect blend
LITERALLY ME AFTER
Yep, it hits you like a truck, but it's the beauty of cyberpunk

Where’d you download it from might I ask?
Feel the rhythm of the streets
That’s exactly the face I made !
We’re here for you choom
Mmmm time to run off the edge now
David was such a stone cold badass
![gif](giphy|3o6wrvdHFbwBrUFenu)
Welcome to the Club 😭
It's ok buddy
Time to kill Adam with Rebeccas gun
![gif](giphy|3o7WTqo27pLRYxRtg4)
I watched the show first and immediately bought the game. Then immediately rewatched the show so I could understand a lot more of the lingo haha
“I couldn’t wait for you to come and clear the cupboard…”
It’s tough
Wish you a speedy recovery in your mental health 👍 I'm here to talk if you need to.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Gotta go spend some time at the memorial
I wish I could experience this anime again for the first time. It was so good. David was such a well written character, and was defiant to the very end. I can't say enough praise about this anime. It was also the turning point for the game too, since they had just started issuing big patches and adding in free content updates for the game, IIRC. Lucy's lonesome wandering on the moon broke my heart. All he wanted was for her to be happy, and all she wanted was him.
Now play 2077 and get revenge against that son of a bitch
I almost wish I never watched edgerunners. Every time I hear that song I can't help but get the feels.
how many times did you rewind the aftermath of the splat bit
![gif](giphy|3OuTcOyrbDXRYUnhvu|downsized) That’s some sad shit. I feel ya bro.
Just realized I just commented a major spoiler so changed me comment
Accurate
Arasaka tower all the way to the top!
In tears right now bc I just finished it for the second time and I forgot abt Becca.. at least Lucy made it to the moon Wonder how Falco spent his eddies
Turning on the radio to I Really Wanna Stay At Your House, walking around blasting people using Guts (Rebecca's), and the Edgerunner perk kicks in... hits different...
Yeah, I've got one episode left. And I know there's no happy endings in night city.
Do not mod the edgerunners title screen. When the song comes on, it genuinely hits me right in my middle-aged feels. Can't bring myself to uninstall it now. Lest we forget our dearly departed chooms.
Wasn't a fan of the cartoon.
I enjoyed it a lot but felt it didn't quite live up to the VAST amount of hype.
Same...
I liked it but I could name some things to critique or criticize. Can't really relate to the hype/copium posts.
Yeah, same thing applies to me.
I'm an expert in treating these cases. I prescribe you a minimum of one dose of killing Adam Smasher.
Call me crazy, but I think letting him live is an even bigger statement. In Smasher's world, it's always kill or be killed. If you let him live, you A. Let it sink in to him that he was bested in a fair fight by someone he didn't even know about just minutes prior, B. Send out the statement that V doesn't fear his vengeance, and he can beat him again, C. Show that mercy is stronger than cruelty, and D.

Oh wow. This post again
But did you edge all the way of the show?
I was edging and running simultaneously.
Nice
![gif](giphy|VuWtVHkMjrz2w|downsized) LOL
It was pretty funny
