Falco survived and sticks around long enough to be the client in the TTRPG scenario based on the anime, where he hires your crew to recover stuff that belonged to his crew (David's (mom's) jacket, Rebecca's guns, etc.)
I still think Phantom Liberty would've fit with Lucy, even if you'd need to fudge some details. I think she'd empathize with Songbird quite a bit given what the two of them had been through, and given your version of Lucy isn't suffering from the relic sending her to the moon would be the choice to go with.
That weird T-pose shadow thing with the outfit - I've made some Cyberpunk mods for myself before, and I bet I know exactly what causes it. Most pieces of equipment have a separate mesh for shadows. A low poly one which you never see in-game, all it does is cast a shadow, but when making custom clothing/hair/whatever, if you want it to cast a shadow, you need to either copy a basegame shadow mesh, or make your own. And make sure it's on the right rig, lest you want to end up with your shadow clothes floating off from your shadow body
Not really? The corpo lifepath has you working for arasaka, why would Lucy risk returning to work for arasaka? (especially considering her backstory as a netrunner and the events of edgerunners) In fairness, it wouldn't make sense for her to go back to night city and then attempt a risky heist on arasaka at all but would make even less sense for her to willingly go and work for them
Also edgerunners takes place from sometime 2075 to 2076, so none of the backstories in game really work for this run in terms of making sense but the corpo one being the least likely by far
If I had an eddie for each badass netrunner who run away to the moon in 2077 I'd have two eddies, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice
The Monowire was such an underrated piece of cyberware, like yeah the Mantis Blades might look cooler, but the Monowire does like 2x the damage, it's pretty insane
Potential Rebecca run rulez: Only her shotgun and LMG allowed (in terms of guns) All points would go into strength (aka body), and i believe reflexes? Gorrilla arms are allowed considering her building block looking hands And if youre gonna do a "lore" for why she is alive, go with the fanarts of her being essentially a cyborg with cybernetics focusing on her legs, her hands and skeleton, and well kiroshi considering she did lose an eye
0:27 sole survivor?? Bro forgot the absolute G.O.A.T. Falco. 1:47 wouldn't Corpo be the best path? Lucy was raised from childhood to an Arasaka Netrunner after all In all seriousness, great video choom :)
I always though that lucy killed herself because of the sticker on one the morgues in the afterlife saying "Moon Explorer", although I found out later that they're everywhere
It's funny to me that Lucy is basically the build I run every time in Cyberpunk. (And every game to be honest) I love glass cannon builds, and pistols and the monowire were my favourite weapons. So it's nice to see some representation in Edgerunners. 😁
You mean horribly depressed? Yeah, I could beat Cyberpunk like that. And for a Rebecca run, I'd say the only weapon you can use is her shotgun. I know she uses other weapons, but cmon, it's her shotgun.
As much as I like the monowire for how cool it is, it really feels more like it's a tool for quickhacks than an actual weapon since its primary gimmick is that all 2 perks for it both revolve around restoring your RAM. I do wish monowire had their own tree the way that every other melee does, even if it was more focused on quickhacking.
we got an answer, she gets sent to an alternate universe about 80 years in the future and becomes a fighter (as a guest character in guilty gear strive)
Putting a slightly different spin on the story is a neat idea. I'm struggling with the fairly linear story in videos lately (also the reason why I just can't play the game again)
Watching his, and the NPC Lucy, I realize how much I hate when the use the same voice actor for different people without even any attempt at voice changes, especially when a semi-main to main character shares voices. NPC Lucy sounds exactly like Regina.
This was more Lucy post events of the show, and starting in Arasaka tower didn’t sit right. The Street kid acts like you left the streets in search of something better, only to come back. But still very fair!
I've thought about playing Cyberpunk as literal Far Cry 2 merc You know, the lifelong permanently ill guy with guns and explosives who also has some old guy teaching him philosophy Oh, right
Counter argument. Lucy couldn't breach Smasher's ICE in the first place, so she would die. Which results in a game over(similar to suicide just with actual thanks for playing message) on don't fear the Reaper ending so yes you can beat the game as Lucy, just without happy ending(going to the moon)
4:54 Here's a fun fact. In Ep3 you see that hacking Minigame as Lucy hacks the car, where she has the default buffer of 4. So to increase accuracy to Lucy you'd have to play with a Tier 1 Cyberdeck or restrict yourself to only use 4 buffer slots
I would like to do a Rebecca run, but I can't seem to come up with a ruleset for it. As she seems fine with most weapons, and most of her cyberware just isn't in the game!
@@larsburritoBut that is easy. Rebecca goes for shotguns, duh and LMG's. Then give her gorilla arms. Yes not the same as the show but that is close. Also put everything into body and cool. Because it's Becca
Just like the 3rd playthrough, I do imminently after watching Edgerunners back in '22 Except I don't restrict weapons- just always keep a Unity on hand. The headcanon is that Lucy comes back for revenge, and V is a new identity she gives herself...she even tinkers her own memory just because she wants to forgor. But things went sideways since...well, is Cyberpunk, and she got Johnny in her head. Then the rest is history. Edit: I like you "deleted" Johnny from the storyline, nice touch tbh- since Lucy is probably tech-savvy enough to know not to have some unknown chip in her.
I think we need to introduce you to the combo of Cyberware Malfunction x3 and Short Circuit on the bigger enemies. I am on my first Netrunner playthrough since 2.0 and that combo does massive damage.
Let me know if you enjoyed this video! I tried a few different things, so let me know if it's up to the burrito quality you like!
You're the only guy that plays on hard all of us play on very hard
any chance for a link to the lucy mods
Updated the description with the mods!
@@larsburrito that's awesome, thanks choom!
I don’t know if it’s on my end but the voiceover audio seems to peak or cut out at the end of sentences? Not sure.
"Lucy's the sole surviver of the show"
Falco, who tells V to not look into David's crew "am I a joke to you?"
Does that mean we can hope for a video/run with the other surviver
@@nickmaynard3079did falco do anything in the show? He was like exclusively the driver no? Whole run is just hitting people with cars lol.
@@bot4hire202would still be cool lol
Falco survived and sticks around long enough to be the client in the TTRPG scenario based on the anime, where he hires your crew to recover stuff that belonged to his crew (David's (mom's) jacket, Rebecca's guns, etc.)
@@bot4hire202He drives the car, that's why he's the GOAT.
"I always wondered what happened to the sole survivor of the show-"
Falco: exists
He's just chilling tho
i mean, you can't really blame him after the clusterfuck that edgerunners ending was.
He drives
@@Lottabaggage*Applause*
“That’s why he’s the GOAT!!!”
can't wait to see "Beat Cyberpunk as Falco from Edgerunner"
finish the game by only drive car , kill with car ramp, etc
maybe the biggest gig
smasher fight would be terrifying in cars he would destroy them so fast but they would destroy him
It is an interesting experiment
"How much of the game can you beat while staying in a vehicle" 😅
Falco uses a Burya, which is a pretty solid weapon.
Lucy ran out of cash and came back from the moon for one last job
I swear if he plays... the song in this video, someone is gonna die while i'm in tears
(Edit) Goddamn it, he played it, imma go fuck up smasher now
Real
I COULD NOT wait for him to come and clear the cupboards 😡😡😡😭😭😤
Its not Smasher's fault, dont take it out on him hes just a little guy :(((
@@bumbleshanks_nah he should've spared Rebecca and David
@@bumbleshanks_ Ok just for that hes getting the bfc9000
I still think Phantom Liberty would've fit with Lucy, even if you'd need to fudge some details. I think she'd empathize with Songbird quite a bit given what the two of them had been through, and given your version of Lucy isn't suffering from the relic sending her to the moon would be the choice to go with.
Not to mention the monowire relic perks
@@hckr47 oh yeah 100%, hacking with the monowire
"Sole survivor of the show" ayo, what about my boy Falco?! He drives the car. And he lives. For some reason.
ones of the rare cases where the driver survives
Falco: “ayo, ssssh. They haven’t figured out yet that I should not have survived lmaoo”
2012 was such a lawless time on the Internet.
"No, because you can only play as V" i loled much harder than i should
I love how he always turns each run into a story and follows it. This one is the perfect example with his decision not to do phantom liberty.

Shouldnt the corpo lifepath be more fitting considering her backstory as an arasaka netrunner

I was just looking for a “Can you beat Cyberpunk…” video and you post this; perfect
Cannot wait for the "can you beat cyberpunk as rebecca from edgerunners?"
only is considered as complete if you die to smasher and then quit the run
@@dankerbell maybe go for the (dont fear) the reaper ending and die to smasher? Thats considerd a ending
Wanted to say that the way you made your own narrative with the Main game story. It was really cool!
the last line gave me whiplash because thats exactly what i was doing
If I had an eddie for each badass netrunner who run away to the moon in 2077 I'd have two eddies, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice
the jackster walked so V.. I mean Lucy could run
The Monowire was such an underrated piece of cyberware, like yeah the Mantis Blades might look cooler, but the Monowire does like 2x the damage, it's pretty insane
It's definitely my favourite arm cyberwear. 😂
I'm so happy you played a character from one of my favorite things!
It's the guest character from Guilty Gear Strive :D
Still an insane crossover to me
She finna get sol badguyed 😭
She's getting jumped by the police unless she gets onto Zepp somehow
Potential Rebecca run rulez:
Only her shotgun and LMG allowed (in terms of guns)
All points would go into strength (aka body), and i believe reflexes?
Gorrilla arms are allowed considering her building block looking hands
And if youre gonna do a "lore" for why she is alive, go with the fanarts of her being essentially a cyborg with cybernetics focusing on her legs, her hands and skeleton, and well kiroshi considering she did lose an eye
I was ready to comment went the expected song plays, so here I am 10 minutes and 7 seconds into the video. I'm not crying, you're crying.😭
0:27 sole survivor?? Bro forgot the absolute G.O.A.T. Falco.
1:47 wouldn't Corpo be the best path? Lucy was raised from childhood to an Arasaka Netrunner after all
In all seriousness, great video choom :)
A becca run: use shotguns and pistols only. Only up body and cool.
I always though that lucy killed herself because of the sticker on one the morgues in the afterlife saying "Moon Explorer", although I found out later that they're everywhere
0:08 Patrick got attacked by a blackwall AI
It's funny to me that Lucy is basically the build I run every time in Cyberpunk. (And every game to be honest)
I love glass cannon builds, and pistols and the monowire were my favourite weapons. So it's nice to see some representation in Edgerunners. 😁
Lucy is my favourite character from the show, so the joy factor for this 'Can you beat cyberpunk as...' has a 10x multiplier!
You mean horribly depressed? Yeah, I could beat Cyberpunk like that.
And for a Rebecca run, I'd say the only weapon you can use is her shotgun. I know she uses other weapons, but cmon, it's her shotgun.
should've had a mod that only lets the radio play 'I Wanna Stay at Your house'
I gotta say i love that a new anime got announced, and i thought i was done playing, but i never started my ps5 playthrough so it'll make me game out
My xbox has over 700hrs played 😂 mainly just depressed walking around the pretty city
9:23 to watch a man eat a cheeseburger with his eyes and nose.
He is using it to hide his binoculars
Absolutely amazing video not only got me reinstalling cyberpunk but also had me listening to some Jamiroquai again
What an apt time to upload this kind of video with the teaser of the new CP show. Can't wait to be emotionally fondled by a series again.
Just thought of that, genuinely perfect timing XD
I just started, and I can say this is a certified LarsBurrito classic
I promise, I won't make any more goblin jokes
You can save the Goblin jokes for a Rebecca video
@@larsburrito there will be one? YES!!!
@larsburrito so it is confirmed? Are you gonna make the character model shorter?
As much as I like the monowire for how cool it is, it really feels more like it's a tool for quickhacks than an actual weapon since its primary gimmick is that all 2 perks for it both revolve around restoring your RAM. I do wish monowire had their own tree the way that every other melee does, even if it was more focused on quickhacking.
Can’t wait for the last 2 characters to die in season 2
Woo yeah baby that’s what I’ve been waiting for, more cyberpunk content!!
I wish we could fall asleep like V 😭 jsut rub ur eyes and poof sleep time
we got an answer, she gets sent to an alternate universe about 80 years in the future and becomes a fighter (as a guest character in guilty gear strive)
Putting a slightly different spin on the story is a neat idea. I'm struggling with the fairly linear story in videos lately (also the reason why I just can't play the game again)
Hey its the guy from guilty gear
This reminds me, Lucy is getting added to guilty gear
I dont care how long its been since ive seen edgerunners it make me cry just by the music
Sole survivor? You forgot Falco, the best choom of all.
the rewriting of the story was a brilliant idea! You made that really seamless
Are y’all excited for the new cyber punk anime confirmed by Netflix
11:17 call of duty
you didn’t have to stare at Jackie like that when he brought up Smasher 😂😂
Should have been corporate background Lucy is literally a corporate nettrunner
Watching his, and the NPC Lucy, I realize how much I hate when the use the same voice actor for different people without even any attempt at voice changes, especially when a semi-main to main character shares voices. NPC Lucy sounds exactly like Regina.
3:40 me and him had the EXACT same reactions😂😭😭
(Inhales) BEST GIRL💅
1:44 did blud forget Lucy’s backstory? She’s an Arasaka kid
This was more Lucy post events of the show, and starting in Arasaka tower didn’t sit right. The Street kid acts like you left the streets in search of something better, only to come back.
But still very fair!
YES, the great oshawott man has returned to my front page, blessed be this day
my most recent playthrough was a stealthy netrunner, lots of smarts, sneaky, silenced pistol and smart weapons, was very fun
I’m a simple man, I see LarsBurrito post during my break, I immediately watch
lucy looks so scuffed 💀
Edit: 10:08 Whyyyy :(
BRO I JUST FINISHED EDGERUNNERS LET ME RECOVER
At 1:49 You decided street kid but Lucy was a corpo though. She grew up being forced to netrun for Arasaka
It was more of a Lucy after the events of the show. And her starting in Araska tower doesn't make my sense to me
@@larsburrito I suppose that makes sense. Leaving the coming back or something
7:14 you gotta get the Aristotle dialogue. It's a canon event.
Even in the game itself , the full netrunner build has the highest chance of survival and mission success.
I've thought about playing Cyberpunk as literal Far Cry 2 merc
You know, the lifelong permanently ill guy with guns and explosives who also has some old guy teaching him philosophy
Oh, right
Counter argument. Lucy couldn't breach Smasher's ICE in the first place, so she would die. Which results in a game over(similar to suicide just with actual thanks for playing message) on don't fear the Reaper ending so yes you can beat the game as Lucy, just without happy ending(going to the moon)
really should do one where you play as silverhand pre said silver hand when he was a simple data courier going by the codename johnny mnemonic.
WAKE UP BABE NEW LARS VIDEO JUST DROPPED
U have to try beating cyberpunk as maine i would love to watch that
Now we need a David Martinez Run.
I swear you summoned a new Cyberpunk animated show (or maybe season 2)
4:54 Here's a fun fact. In Ep3 you see that hacking Minigame as Lucy hacks the car, where she has the default buffer of 4.
So to increase accuracy to Lucy you'd have to play with a Tier 1 Cyberdeck or restrict yourself to only use 4 buffer slots
Can you beat cyberpunk as Lucy? Well no, you play as V?
Congratulations, now I need a towel.
The look back on calling smasher a legend had me wheezing
I don't think I watched a vid by you since 10k subs. Great to be back
YOU DIDN'T 😭😭😭 HOW COULD YOU
"I wonder what happened to the sole survivor of the show"
Have you ever heard of Guilty Gear?
I can’t wait to see Lucy in guilty gear strive
It doesnt make sense to do phantom liberty, but it would make sense to have blackwall gateway. For y'know, lore reasons.
Ik this probably wont be seen but maybe Rebecca next? Shotgun, LMG and AR only and you have to kill Smasher with the Guts iconic shottie
why does lucy have red eyes at 0:12? if anyone knows the scene what episode is it from
Deep lore. and angy
@@larsburrito fair enough, what scene is it from
It’s from just before she was captured by Farriday, I think episode 6?
Because she's PISSED
Just a pissed expression
she wasnt the only one survivor, Falco the driver survived too. Hes the one who gives you davids jacket in the game.
You cannot call her the sole survivor when my man Falco survives too
Guy mentioned watpad, takes me back, to the trenches of Rwby and fire emblem fandoms, cursed times, cursed cursed times
Truly the what if moments
But......but..... Rebecca. Best girl
I would like to do a Rebecca run, but I can't seem to come up with a ruleset for it. As she seems fine with most weapons, and most of her cyberware just isn't in the game!
@@larsburritoBut that is easy. Rebecca goes for shotguns, duh and LMG's.
Then give her gorilla arms. Yes not the same as the show but that is close. Also put everything into body and cool. Because it's Becca
I do wanna add another Becca specific challenge to this idea, but this is a good baseline! Thank you very much
@@larsburrito You should for sure use "Guts" For the run as it is beccas shotgun.
@@larsburrito You could use "guts"? It is Beccas shotgun after all. (And just saying its very easy to get.)
This video showing up is a sign, guess I'm gonna have to rewatch Edgerunners again.
i’ve done basically this exact build it may be the most fun i’ve ever had
I keep putting off watching the show because i don't want sad but i wanna watch this video so I'll come back to watch this video soon
I was waiting for a can you beat cyberpunk as Lucy video
I tried to do a vanilla Lucy run, it was fun but the lack of Lucy-ness was a big let down. Now I'm gonna download some stuff and do that run again
Just like the 3rd playthrough, I do imminently after watching Edgerunners back in '22
Except I don't restrict weapons- just always keep a Unity on hand.
The headcanon is that Lucy comes back for revenge, and V is a new identity she gives herself...she even tinkers her own memory just because she wants to forgor.
But things went sideways since...well, is Cyberpunk, and she got Johnny in her head.
Then the rest is history.
Edit: I like you "deleted" Johnny from the storyline, nice touch tbh- since Lucy is probably tech-savvy enough to know not to have some unknown chip in her.
I shoulda got in on the cyberpunk content game because “can you beat the game as an Arasaka trained netrunner” is just…
you did have to stare at Jackie like that when he brought up Smasher 😂😂
13:06 sounds like someone named after a fruit
A Rebecca run could be simply a no hacks run with more focus on gun skills, you could even go after her guns in-game to get back at Adam
Runs like this remind me I have feelings 😭
I think we need to introduce you to the combo of Cyberware Malfunction x3 and Short Circuit on the bigger enemies. I am on my first Netrunner playthrough since 2.0 and that combo does massive damage.
I'd love to see you try doing a "can you be Cyberpunk 2077 with only your fists" because I feel like it would be interesting
can you best cyber punk 277 as jimmy neutron (only using the synapse burnout)
"You didn't take me to the moon, but you were there with me"
Hell yes, perfect video to release in the middle of my Edgerunners rewatch ✊️
