Cyberpunk Edgerunners - Cyberpsycho David vs Army

[nunyabusiness]

I remember seeing him magnetize all the guns to himself and shoot them and realized he became the monster made out of a bunch of guns that he kept seeing when he shot those people in the arasaka lab.

The way they did my boy in, when he was already struggling with cyberpsychosis and they force him into a situation where where he has to further mutilate himself breaks my heart.

I love the poetry in this ending. The whole show David runs himself ragged chasing dreams for the people he loves. In the end he does the impossible by slipping in and out of cyberpsychosis, he literally runs on the edge

[yezki]

"But, why is V never suffers from cyberpsychosis?"
Me, seeing all the corpses i left behind: "Fool, IT WAS US. We, the players, are his cyberpsychosis"

[ABx]

I think having David have the same red warning area as MaxTac was a nice touch, the one group of people that never failed to kill now on par with David

[HinokasArabfan]

He definitely went out in a blaze of glory. That's what legends are made of.

[magicoddball]

I like how they went in more depth for cyber pyschosis because its basically non-existent for V in the game if you fully mod him out

[haydenTenno-]

And to think… THAT was meant to be used by Adam fucking smasher

[Gwilherm]

Bro, David is a litteral monster in this, he looks inhuman, it's scary and sad.

[laughingman]

The moment David put on those mech parts on him the more he just reminded me of the Warhammer40k dreadnought. It just gets better, that he's literally a dead man/corpse on borrowed time the moment he put those on.

Even in death he still serves.

Captain here: So the reason V, was able to chrome out so excessively and not fall victim to Cyberpsyhosis like our boy David, was due to Relic device, for the exact same reason it was killing them.

Due to the Relic re-writing parts of the brain it viewed as problematic, it never allowed a chance for the Cyberpsyhosis to set in.
So at the cost of their life-span, V was granted immunity to the problems and issues that lead to the symptoms of Cyberpsyhosis.

Edit: This really blew up.
Thanks for everyone's input

God forbid what actual wars would look like in cyberpunk, jesus

As amazing at this display was, shows how extraordinary V really is. V surpassed David AND Smasher, the only one who was “special”.

"The power it generates in the short term...is unlike anything devised on this side of sanity."

As dark as the implications in this scene are, what a line.

[deauxburns]

Brutal installation of that exoskeleton. He’s just a torso now lol.

[postpwnmalone]

they managed to make this fight so thrilling considering a lot of it is shown on that tablet

[symbolic]

this scene made me sad but also happy for david. the whole show he was trying to help others achieve their dream, even died for it.. but THIS was his dream. he wanted to be an edgerunner and find a family and experience love. he was able to do all those things and ultimately died a legend. that final smile on his face before he is killed showed a man who truly was at peace with himself. he wasnt on the edge at all like maine was when he snapped. if you look closely at the closing montage of him walking through night city alone, he walks and stops right in the middle. perfectly centered.

"Unlike anything devised on this side of sanity"
Why does that line sound so bad ass yet also so bloody terrifying

[BasementOwner]

Edgerunners broke my heart
Even though i expected the ending it still hit so hard and the songs also stuck in my head too 😭😭

[johnhendrix]

Man that part about David’s mom crying about her wanting better for him hits so different now 😢
