@@hotntasty_ haha ye true. In this one you managed to create way more of an atmosphere. More easily managable after the series but nonetheless good piece :)
My favorite part out of all of this is that edgerunners is the most accurate game-to-anime adaptation ever. Players can role play any character easily.
@@thegemguy1334 it also gave attachment to the city as a whole, it's funny cuz usually the games are what use pre existing IPs to get that, and Edgerunners did the same thing but backwards
@@malibius yeah fr i think night city has infinite potential to be great, since it's such a interesting city to be in. even in game the city feels so alive. its definitely a unique experience. i feel like if the game keeps going in the path that it's going it'll become BIG for sure.
I think it's crazy how a community can be united like this. Before edgerunners there barely was a cyberpunk community. But now after the anime and recent updates? It's a whole community who all feel the same thing. It's wild.
There has been a Cyberpunk community since its release my guy. Those of us willing enough to bear through the disappointments to enjoy the parts that never were disappointing. We've only just now finally been put into the spotlight and started growing a lot again.
@@nathanmagnuson2589 That's just it though. It wasn't completely disappointing. Those of us who actually stuck with it the whole way after release realized that. It's only just now that everyone else is finally coming back and discovering it for themselves thanks to Edgerunners and CDPR's updates.
Edgerunners did more than just revive the game. It spoke to humanity for those that watch it. Night city is the real main character without obviously being a character. Everyone is just dancing their best tune in it. Edgerunners hit me hard due to my mom died not long ago and after finishing the end of this. A part of me feel "on the edge" too
I thought about it as well and it also mimics the dragonslayer from guts because it obliterates people with a single slug just like the sword with a single strike.
I'm happy that Edgerunners got people to care about Cyberpunk again. I was in love with the lore and setting when the game released but no one I knew would shut up about the bugs to discuss the story.
agreed, I had been running the table top 2020 when the game released half of the table after 2077 released would not shut up about the bugs in the game
Ofc no one would shut up about the bugs…its fucking game breaking and made the game nearly unplayable especiallynon console. People would give a shit about its lore if the game came out without the bugs
@@kinoman4875 I played 2077 like 9 months after release and never experienced a single game breaking bug. Its been a pretty stable game (at least for PC) for at least that long, so yeah its a little annoying that people won't shut up about something that hasn't been a problem for a while.
@@Mode-Selektor good for you i guess? It doesnt change the fact that for the first few MONTHS the game was horrible especially for playstation and xbox to the point where they had to take it off of playstore.
I playing the pervy ripper doc mission, and to my left I could hear I Really Want to Stay at Your House, the memories were going off in my mind. Then I pulled myself back into the game. Edgerunners really implanted itself well into my psyche, and I don’t regret buying 2077. Both complement each other fantastically.
Damn, this is really well-made! Keanu cry-singing into his David Martinez is just perfect. It's true though, ever since watching Edgerunners, the song is really playing everywhere.
The thing that really hit me about this show/game was that the things that happened to the main group really werent too extraordinary in universe. People got betrayed, did the betraying, died, and suffered for no real meaning. It just kinda happens there.
I'm glad that they were actually able to help add on to the lore of cyberpunk through a show but it also doesn't force it into the game it just shows another story of a night city resident, fucking love the show
Before it was just a background music that you will hear all the time, now it hits different like you just wanna stop what you are doing and let the music pierce your heart.
I was literally driving towards a gig until the song came out on the radio. It was night time so I just parked where I could see the bright lights of NC. Truly nostalgic and sad at the same time.
I heard this music the moment I encountered Fingers, playing in his room right when I opened the door, didn't have the strength to kill him after that...
@@bevercage6673 Kiwi was certainly a big factor there, but the point of no return is definitely the way David and Lucy talk happened in ep 8. Both weren't rational enough and keep doing their own thing. They didn't really want to hear or fully understand the problems and feelings of each other until it's too late. Lucy didn't really try to stop David from chroming up to the point of visually ~80% body implants in a matter of few months, and keeps refusing David's offer to come back while she doesn't want to tell the exact reason of why she left at first place and still didn't want to return. Then she just goes away from their dialogue to stop another Arasaka agent towards David, and immediately getting caught in the trap thx to Kiwi and Faradey. David didn't really try to stop using implants even tho he knows exactly what happened to his bro Maine, and refuses to remove at least few of them to suspend almost unavoidable cyberpsychosis while he keeps pushing a false narrative of him being "special" in using implants and their influence on him. Then he suddenly concludes that he still did not live up to expectations of his mother and Maine, and pretty much willingly agrees to become a canon fodder in the suicide mission with the active participation of two megacorporations Militech and Arasaka. Technically, everything that happened in the finale could have been avoided up to this point of episode 8, but yeah, "wrong city, wrong people".
@@Hecate3952 I don't grudge Kiwi her betrayal. She looked out for herself, understood that the crew was falling apart. She likely knew about David sliding down the deep end as well. What I do grudge her is being absolutely brain crushingly STUPID. Trusting Faraday and EVEN GOING BACK TO THE SURPRISE MEETING is the most stupid thing to do, period. For someone picturing themselves as so street smart and deep in the game, she got played like a fucking fiddle.
"David, I'm so happy you and Lucy managed to use your net runners and hack the Arasaka. You have truly become Cyberpunk Edgerunners 2077" - Maine. I literally can't even.
I love that in update they implemented stuff around Edgerunners in a way that- you as V didn't heard about him and crew, but the night city people remember them.
I can relate to 1:10 so much. Even after 10 MONTHS it still hurts so much just to sing this one song. I cry every single time I even hear a glimpse of it. I don't think I will ever in my life be able to rewatch Edgerunners again and it breaks me to know it so much 😭😭😭😭😭😭
I bought Cyberpunk on Steam because it was on sale, later on in the evening I watched EdgeRunners. That same night, I dreamt about being in the world of CyberPunk. Cyberpunk Edgerunners achieved icon status in 10 episodes while most other animes failed in dozens or hundreds.
Just saw the show yesterday. It was absolutely depressing as ####. That poor kid had it rough. He literally had no chance to have a normal life. I was really hoping for some sort of good ending.
The amazing thing about edgerunners is the story really does take place in the night city I love. I recognize vistas and buildings, certain roads and bridges, and it's great
Remember - David killed woman in laboratory after being psycho which was exactly like his mother - she had kid which she was carrying a lot about. He was not that great and definitely not deserved happy ending, but at least his sacrifice helped Lucy get out of this life line.
He was absolutely torn about the fact . He wasnt psycho during the fact and he collapsed at home that night after feeling the weight of his action. He didnt deserve a happy ending but he wasnt a bad dude either. He was simply dealt a horrible hand by fate
That desperate desire to escape the song only for the horror to sink in when you realize that you cannot stop hearing it everywhere you go. How the panic sink into your soul knowing that the painful memories will forever stick into your heart and ears as that song plays forever in your head. Never to cease.
Whenever I'm roaming around NC I'll hear the song being played from a radio and I'll run away as far as possible from it. I can't deal with the pain anymore bruh 😭
👏👏👏 Bravo , i was destroyed for 3 days and was feeling better today,this made everything worse. I think the saddest and most epic thing about the anime was how realistic the characters death were. No grander meaning. No stupid self sacrifice. No power of friendship nonsense. I guess in Cyberpunk people die when they are killed huh..
@@wallex5665 not really, AGK's death feels force most of the time. Your like oh why is this supporting character getting more screentime then boom. Dead. I prefer character death to be unexpected. Not smack it in your face " go like this character" type of way.
I love how they just die, instantly, no fan-fare. Spoilers: Rebecca's brother's death was such a surprise, I was genuinely shocked about it. I was thinking "oh, funny comedy man is doing funny comedy bit, he's probably going to get peed o-" *blood everywhere* ... *"What the hell????!!!"*
I don't even like anime. But seeing Edgerunners, that shit made me shed a tear. It was like playing story mode all over again, with the ending pulling at my strings
@@zelorig8887 but there different genres and themes . There super crooks , Carole and Tuesday if u want a singing show ,great for a heist show , cowboy bebop for a space western , vampire hunter d bloodlust for gothic action adventure like there so many and there worth the timem
Imaging not wanting to consume media in a certain form…. I bet you may be one of those people that have the “animation == not worthwhile/childish” in their head. In that case, I feel truly sorry for you
I love how there are no happy endings in Night City. Both V and David are chewed up and spit out by the end of everything. It really adds to the depressing nature of NC.
Those items from the anime is really a great way for making people want to replay the game but the other side of that is shown in this video. E.g. after watching anime music hits different. Just imagine if someday there will be a dlc where we can play as a David with several endings with of course the most desired one - with saving Becca
Facts I feared becca might die but not if David did and both happened. At least David died and saved Lucy but rebbeca just... Just died. What a great character she was
Good Idea like with Xenoblade Chronicles 3 and Other Games where they show Other Character's Stories. They could let you change his story's ending. As a Prequel Series Expansion. With a lot to do In between Side Quests etc.
The ending was very good with Rebecca killing Adam Smasher, Maine and Dorio getting married, Lucy going to the moon with the protagonist, and Kiwi finding a family that loves her. 😫😫😫😫
For some reason, it made me cry even harder when i realized that places in the show are in the game. It almost made it feel like...i was attached to these characters in a way a show has never made me feel before. This show just destroyed me. I remember watching the last 5 minutes and just crying uncontrollably like i had just lost someone close to me, and i hardly ever cry. Its absolutely one of the most well done pieces of media of our time. I can't even listen to that fucking song anymore lol. This show reflects us and our society in so many ways its scary...i think everyone can see a little bit of David and Lucy in themselves, and i think that is what hurt me the most. I had a similar childhood to David, and watching someone you are invested in struggle the same ways you struggle is a feeling you cant recreate. Bravo to everyone involved in this show, but mostly to CDPR for writing such an incredible work of art that i will never forget as long as im still breathing. To anyone who has read this far, I urge you: if you havent seen Edgerunners and/or played CB2077, please do it. You have no idea what an incredible journey you are missing out on.
maybe, but this hurts bad and made me addicted. i wish i never watched it or for atleast some info whats happened with characters after the ending.. @@ChaotiX1
Don’t know if you ever saw it, but Blade Runner 2022 Blackout is 🔥. It’s an anime short prequel for Blade Runner 2049. It’s literally the combination of the dystopian setting of Cyberpunk and the gritty & mature art style and atmosphere of the Animatrix, probably the only animation in the late 2010’s that still has the feels of an early 2000’s anime like Animatrix.
There isn't going to be a season 2. They confirmed they have no plans to make another. They did however say, they aren't opposed to creating another anime in the same cyberpunk world. So new characters and such.
This year was depressing enough, now we have to deal with Edgerunners ending too. 10/10 game to anime adaptation, but damn.. Can't get over the ending. Guess that sometimes in life things turn out to be bad and there is not much that can be done.
Edgerunners gave new life to this game It was hated a lot because of bugs etc but now A LOT of people buy the game/come back to it just because of anime This is the "Push" that this game needed
I stopped playin in 2020 specifically cause I had a bug where ALL palm trees were highlighted… through walls, buildings… this anime reminded me to come back and play since more than likely the issues were fixed😊
Possible spoiler? God the anime was good I verbally yelled out NOoO when Rebecca well you know really wanted her to survive as well then it made me completely break down when Lucy was basking in the sun knowing it’ll never bring her the happiness she felt in the simulator, dang gotta go cry in the shower now.😢
@@RaxusXeronos He was done justice in the game as well. It is just that he got into combat with the only person to be able to meet his blows, so to speak. And past that point, Adam Smasher is just a terminator-like being, which is difficult to combat, but nonetheless killable. Imagine if he were to fight somebody Kryptonian or Omni-man. He would be a toast immediately then. But that does not make him any less of a threat against average people - like DC’s cyborg, which is very menacing if not for him being used as a punching bag for the purposes of story-telling. Adam Smasher is a beast, but a beast of very high finite strength.
I actually need to check/hope that there's a mod that basically give you earbuds. I'm not alone on this, right? It's a bit weird even that open world, modern games don't offer the option of music while wandering around very often.
Look at that, so much hype! Thank you guys!

Just imagine if someday there will be a dlc where we can play as a David with several endings with of course the most desired one - with saving Becca
Facts I feared becca might die but not if David did and both happened. At least David died and saved Lucy but rebbeca just... Just died. What a great character she was
Good Idea like with Xenoblade Chronicles 3 and Other Games where they show Other Character's Stories. They could let you change his story's ending. As a Prequel Series Expansion. With a lot to do In between Side Quests etc.
The ending was very good with Rebecca killing Adam Smasher, Maine and Dorio getting married, Lucy going to the moon with the protagonist, and Kiwi finding a family that loves her. 😫😫😫😫
What about Falco and Pilar???
So true i listened to this song and found it beautifull and sad at the same time but after finishing it today makes you feel like this vid so sad...😢😓
WHAT IS THIS MELODY! I'm cryin everytime I hear the song
This probably the best before and after watching video I’ve seen yet
For some reason, it made me cry even harder when i realized that places in the show are in the game. It almost made it feel like...i was attached to these characters in a way a show has never made me feel before. This show just destroyed me. I remember watching the last 5 minutes and just crying uncontrollably like i had just lost someone close to me, and i hardly ever cry. Its absolutely one of the most well done pieces of media of our time. I can't even listen to that fucking song anymore lol. This show reflects us and our society in so many ways its scary...i think everyone can see a little bit of David and Lucy in themselves, and i think that is what hurt me the most. I had a similar childhood to David, and watching someone you are invested in struggle the same ways you struggle is a feeling you cant recreate. Bravo to everyone involved in this show, but mostly to CDPR for writing such an incredible work of art that i will never forget as long as im still breathing. To anyone who has read this far, I urge you: if you havent seen Edgerunners and/or played CB2077, please do it. You have no idea what an incredible journey you are missing out on.
Bro its just a show its not that deep
maybe, but this hurts bad and made me addicted. i wish i never watched it or for atleast some info whats happened with characters after the ending.. @@ChaotiX1
Edgerunner theme song started to play ingame after i watched edgerunner
1:10 this perfect
1:28 That Lucy face it's completely meme material XD
Especially the song.because of the context it still resonates, even after an year
I've been listening to the song non-stop for about as long as this vid is up
Spot on, mate. Great job!
Great work my friend
This is the best before and after montage yet xD
That song literally is stuck in my end when i try to sleep and I cant sleep
Edgerunner is like that one dream that makes you wish you didn't wake up.
Best futuristic anime I've ever seen since Animatrix back in the early 2000's!!! So damn good, pls let there be a season 2!!
Don’t know if you ever saw it, but Blade Runner 2022 Blackout is 🔥. It’s an anime short prequel for Blade Runner 2049. It’s literally the combination of the dystopian setting of Cyberpunk and the gritty & mature art style and atmosphere of the Animatrix, probably the only animation in the late 2010’s that still has the feels of an early 2000’s anime like Animatrix.
Animatrix is a hidden gem and this anime had a similar vibe
@@yokgor4675 Thanks, I'm gonna check it out!
There isn't going to be a season 2. They confirmed they have no plans to make another. They did however say, they aren't opposed to creating another anime in the same cyberpunk world. So new characters and such.
@@mexamrc That's too bad, hopefully they make another story
Can’t stop crying it’s been 5 months.
Best of these videos I've seen yet, well done! I keep rewatching.
Pain. Suffering even.
1:21 golden
I love how the note at the bottom of "The David Martinez" says "Aim high and go out with a bang", I can say that David definitely did the last thing😭
dont know how many of theese i've watched already but this one's definetely the best one yet
thats a crying matter, im mentally unstable after watching edgerunners. but i laughed and cried at the same time here. thanks.
The game won't never be the same anymore
as someone who wathed cyberpunk: edgerunners i can confirn this is our daily routine
5 months later and i still cry over that song...
This year was depressing enough, now we have to deal with Edgerunners ending too. 10/10 game to anime adaptation, but damn.. Can't get over the ending. Guess that sometimes in life things turn out to be bad and there is not much that can be done.
You forgot the part where people rush to Adam Smasher hideout
Just hearing this song brings me tears no matter how long its been
this is my favourite Before and After watching Edgerunners video.
0:54 excuse me while I go cry int the middle of the lot and yell for my crew
That ending lol, hard to laugh through all the tears tho, it really be like that
I swear you have the world in your palm rn. Because you put everything I was thinking into a video!! ❤️❤️
Good edit. Really captured how people felt from the show and now to the game.
bro the editing is legendary XDDDD
I really home they continue making stand-alone stories as an anthology. Just different characters in Night City every season
i drove around mindlessly in-game for a good hour with that song on repeat after watching the anime.
Made it into top of Arasaka, and gets named a drink after him, David is one hell of a guy.
Edgerunners gave new life to this game
It was hated a lot because of bugs etc but now A LOT of people buy the game/come back to it just because of anime
This is the "Push" that this game needed
I stopped playin in 2020 specifically cause I had a bug where ALL palm trees were highlighted… through walls, buildings… this anime reminded me to come back and play since more than likely the issues were fixed😊
0:12 glad i aint the only one who kept flying off that shit
of all the before/after edgerunners videos this is top tier
By far the best one I have seen good job
That’s what I call a 10/10 ending!
Possible spoiler?
God the anime was good I verbally yelled out NOoO when Rebecca well you know really wanted her to survive as well then it made me completely break down when Lucy was basking in the sun knowing it’ll never bring her the happiness she felt in the simulator, dang gotta go cry in the shower now.😢
I knew as soon as Adam Smash appeared on screen shit was going to go real bad, real fast. BUT DAMN if they didn't do him justice unlike the game.
@@RaxusXeronos the second I saw him appear I knew they were all fUCKED
I was mourning them before they even -yknow- lmao
@@RaxusXeronos He was done justice in the game as well.
It is just that he got into combat with the only person to be able to meet his blows, so to speak.
And past that point, Adam Smasher is just a terminator-like being, which is difficult to combat, but nonetheless killable.
Imagine if he were to fight somebody Kryptonian or Omni-man. He would be a toast immediately then. But that does not make him any less of a threat against average people - like DC’s cyborg, which is very menacing if not for him being used as a punching bag for the purposes of story-telling.
Adam Smasher is a beast, but a beast of very high finite strength.
Ripperdoc: When the song hits the last vile, whatever left of u will slingshot u to the other side
I think the soundtrack usage in edgerunners was done truly perfectly, now just hearing a 2 second bit of an edgerunners song hurts my heart
Fucking amazing. Thank you for this.
I actually need to check/hope that there's a mod that basically give you earbuds.
I'm not alone on this, right? It's a bit weird even that open world, modern games don't offer the option of music while wandering around very often.
This is perfect - I’m so glad people are coming back to this game
what is the song at 0:07?
Who's ready for tomorrow
