    With all the enhancements, does Adam Smasher have cyberpsychosis or was he so psychotic before becoming a cyborg that he actually became psychotic-sane? 🤔

      Cyber psychosis can only occur to someone with humanity, Smasher already had a binary psychology of kill or be killed so he de facto cannot have cyberpsychosis. doc.offcall made a really good video on this.

    So apparently in the Cyberpunk tabletops, Adam Smasher was a roughly equivalent hazard to the Tarrasque from DnD.
    You were never really supposed to fight him, and if you did, it was a harsh fight for even high level characters.
    He could be taken a bit easier if you had someone running a hacker build, as that was his relative weakness, but from what I've heard, it still wasn't easy per-se.
    The reason 2077 had him so nerfed is pretty much because he was a regular boss, rather than a deterrent for being mindlessly violent and stupid. Unfortunately, because of the questionable AI, and general lack of fine tuning, he can just kind of be a joke if you run certain builds.
    And apparently, canonically, V is kinda supposed to be sort of special like that. Something about having Johnny in your head and being able to upgrade however you want without going psycho.

    • @tevinanarchy774

      True the only character who matched Adam Smasher was his true rival Morgan Blackhand, who’s just as unkillable as Smasher WITHOUT the Netrunner minor weakness since he relies on meat over machine. Those two are the toughest fights in the series

    • @vayalond7203
      @vayalond7203 Год назад +24

      Fighting Adam in a Tabletop campaign is a call from the GM, he's pissed you've ruined his setting by doing mindless shit or it was planned since the start of the campaign to end it, if your team manage to beat him well, the campaign still stop but your characters are still alive and became fucking legends (once a GM kept our old Character sheets from a campaign where we successfully beat Smasher and call them back as the end bosses for another some times after, with better chromes because we still had some space for some before being on the verge of Cyberpsychosis, we havn't saw it comming and they wrecked us)

      @redmilk2861 Год назад +4

      this is not completely true, during the night city holocaust Morgan Blackhand fought adam smasher to a draw, who if you look at the stats, is not invincible like smasher. I'm not sure about smasher being as powerful powerful as you stated, because you need a lot more context to the capabilities of his cyberware that you can only really get from playing the tabletop so i wont act like I know that, but I think you can certainly say lore wise Adam is not some immovable god as he fought to a draw a man with only minor cyberware. Keep in mind this is 50 years in the past, now that cyberware has significantly progressed I do think its true that 2023 blackhand would be like swatting a fly away.

    • @JustinTK416
      @JustinTK416 Год назад +4

      @@redmilk2861 Well, I think you're right about Smasher in the 2023 setting, but it's like ya said, it's been 50 years since then and cyberware has progressed significantly, not to mention, Smasher likely upgraded since then.
      (I'm fuzzy on the details, but I think there was actually some major world shaping conflict between 2023 and 2077 that kind of spawned a new phase of the setting, but it's been awhile since I looked at the timeline synopsis.)
      From my understanding, Smasher is about as heavy of a cyborg as is physically possible, and is basically a functional cyberpsycho.
      At the very least, he's a BBEG kind of character with various high end abilities configured in a sort of multiclass (from what I can tell looking at him. I don't know the TTRPG system that well).
      And I think in being that alone, if you have a DM that plays him smart, he'll smash any party that isn't on the upper end level wise and well configured and conducted.
      Now from anecdotes, I've kind of gathered that, when played well, he's tougher than even most final bosses due to not generally being a necessary engagement in modules.
      These two things are also generally true for the Tarrasque in DnD.
      And I'm not saying they're even 1 for 1, just comparable in nature as an extremely threatening kind of hazard character.
      Hopefully this explains what I'm getting at better.

    Imo Smasher held onto his sanity, he appears to me as a warrior seeking constant validation rather than a sadist or psychopath. Idk the lore completely to be fair, but he has a competitive nature, and doesn't really torture or enjoy pain, so to me it seems like he just wants to be the strongest creature in existence rather than to just cause mindless anguish.

    In the game V has the relic in his brain and I believe that any psychological cyberpsycho changes that could happen in V's brain are constantly corrected by the Relic to make the brain clean for Johnny Silverhand, plus the Johnny Silverhand is kind of in his brain, making his brain kind of have two people to avoid cyberpsycho state
    So V can change more parts of his body to robotic parts with less side effects like become cyberpsycho, but V doesn't even do that, just watch the lore V from the cinematic cyberpunk 2077 trailer that V doesn't have many cyber parts like David or Adam Smasher does
    And V is much more experienced than David, I think V is 27 or 28 years old in 2077 while David I think he turned 18 in 2076, in addition to V having more strong and smart friends who helped him and the best doctor and friend Viktor Vector.

    Fun Fact: Smasher always knew V was there. Can't recall the name of it, but one of the cyber upgrades you can get tells you if an enemy is aware of your presence. The Arasaka members in the room are unaware, Smasher is registered as aware of you. Meaning he was in on the murder from the start, and just let V and co remain as scapegoats.

      I mean, it's unfortunately common for such powerful villains in the lore to be represented horribly in the game itself. For example, all of the TES, Fallout and The Witcher games bosses range from underwhelming to extremely weak, besides maybe the Kayran, since he's gimmicky af, which makes him a hassle if you don't know what you're doing. That's a good way of making a boss difficult no matter what -- make it actually vulnerable only to something you specifically laid out and is mostly independent of the player's build, obviously being also a weakness that can be exploited and makes sense in-universe.
      To add to that, one can also not make the weakness obvious and force the player to pay extra attention and explore the game to find out what to do, otherwise they get to the fight to just be wrecked. I get why this isn't done that much, though -- it can be too much for casual players...

      If you make the weakness something that a player has to go out of their way to find, then that makes it even worse gameplay because it punishes the player for not going to every nook and cranny.

      Are you saying that Atom was loyal to the father and not the son who murdered him?
      I put in 80 hours on the game when it first came out. I did enjoy it for what it was. Another looter shooter based in cyberpunk world. It really didn't deliver on their promises. Not to mention the AI was worse than games from 2001 and lego city games had better AI.

    My theory is Saburo leaked the info about the chip in hopes that someone would attempt to take it.

The hopes here was to punish Yuri by eventually taking over his body through the relic system which is one of the endings.

If I was David, I'd have taken Smasher up on His offer. It would mean living to see another day, and you can always plot revenge, later.

    Also, fun fact: In the corporate origin story, V would of been one of David's classmates as V is roughly the same age, so they would of met. However, every other origin story he arrived at Night City as an adult.
