In the grand scale of corporate scheming, the characters, no matter how much destruction they cause, do little to affect the status quo.

It’s a common theme. The characters often talk about how it’s better to go down in a blaze of glory then quietly and with out purpose, but when you look at Johnny’s and V’s deaths it’s apparent that there was no glory. Nothing has changed after their death. Arasaka is still a powerhouse , the world is dying, you can’t stop the relic from taking over your body. There is no glory, only the blaze that took you out.

@@asshat8892 Its only ever glorious to those who see it from the outside, those who didn't loose anything for the "legend", I think I've learned something really important from Cyberpunk and that is that sometimes the best way to make real change is not to play for power but to stop doing so, being at the top doesn't make anyone happy in the world of Cyberpunk because you had to sacrifice so much to get there that there is nothing left but a big empty seat waiting to be taken by the next fool who wants to make it to the top. If David had quit while he was ahead he would have been happy, he had friends, he had Lucy, he had money and would most likely not have to worry about making a living, he could have chromed down and lived a longer happier life with Lucy, which I am sure is what Lucy actually wanted once they got together she would have rather have David with her than going to the moon, because it is not a question of do I want to go to this place I've dreamed of going to or do I want the person I love to be with me for a long time? In my opinion it is a no brainer you would want the person you love by your side, that is why I don't see Lucy's smile at the end as anything but a sad smile trying to hold back the tears from flowing, she wanted to go to the moon for sure but she would rather have gone there with David instead, and in lieu of that she would have rather continued watching her Moon BD with him back on Earth.

To make the ending even more tragic, on episode 4 when David tells Lucy "I'll take you to the moon, I promise", Lucy's response was to kiss him and tell him "I just don't want you to die". David never understood she cared more about his well-being than going to the moon.

Unfortunately towards the end David was going to go psycho with his upgrades and Lucy's protectiveness about the Cyberskeleton secret ultimately cost him David because she couldn't convince him to downgrade while holding back secrets from him. Not to mention she was going to get caught regardless and if she had told him the secret, David would have sought the Cyberskeleton by himself to save her anyway. They were on a doomed trajectory, they just didn't know it yet. David's specialness ultimately became his biggest weakness, made him too stubborn to think he could fall to cyberpsychosis. Like an extraordinarily lucky gambler on a roll not knowing when to call it quits losing to only moderately lucky guy who knew when enough is enough.

This show asks the audience a question "Are you really alive?". If we look at all the antagonists they are stuffy corpo rats that don't see any value in life or people other than what they can get them in terms of money and status. The characters we love see value in the company we keep, our freedom to make our own choices, and our struggles to go as far as we can for ourselves and our loved ones. Does Smasher and Arasaka win? Yes and no. In their definition of the word yes. They got their test and they are still standing, still running the world. None of them are happy. Smasher is leading a completely unfulfilled life at the top of the foodchain completely devoid of joy. Nothing rivals him to push him to excel or fear to motivate him to do anything. Arasaka's employees are constantly looking over their shoulder for what is going to get them if someone else sees it as a way forward for them and they are always looking to do them same. Their lives are nothing but fear and treachery. David loses but in the end lived his life how he wanted and was with those he cared deeply for and got to show it to them, to be shown that his love was reciprocated. It doesn't matter if he died so young because he experienced something so few people in that world will ever know and exceeded his potential by miles. Did the city swallow him with what he would have to become to achieve his goals? It nearly did, but he rose above it to hang on to the one thing that still made him human. His need for love.

The reason no one gets a happy ending in Night City is because no one actually quits the city for real, no one ever quits when they are ahead, David had everything but his chase for more is what made him loose everything, He had a crew he could trust, he had a partner who loved him, he had money to live far above what he ever could when his mom was alive, he could have quit, not been a legend but rather a happy person who lived long. The only real happy ending for the game in my opinion is where as Male V you leave the City with the Aldecaldos and Panam, leave the City behind and leave with your new family, you may not have as long to live as you wanted to but you are not alone, and you have something everyone in Night is always hunting for, family and love.

The pain I felt, the struggle i endured, the things I missed out on was all for nothing just because they wanted to save name. Its unfair, its painful but it happens. You cant win em all, but it would be helluva better life if I could win more instead of losing more. I just stopped giving a fuck and decided to do what I felt was right kn smaller things. Its a start I guess. And the thing that hit me most is, after watching the show. Aside from games, gym and everything else that keeps me distracted.

Rebecca's struggle to keep David from losing himself, and her resignation when she realizes that he is lost and there's no going back just kills me. There are no happy endings in Night City, it just eats you up and spits you out, a mangled mess of unfulfilled dreams and what-could've-beens.

And it was most sad to me that even Lucy wasn't enough motivation for him to stop with the augments. And the ending..... oh the ending....

The tragic overarching story with David and Lucy's struggle to save each other and achieve their dreams was painful. But Rebaecca's sub-plot was icing on the cake that made it really, _really_ hurt. That scene where Rebecca realizes David is too far gone, accepts it, and comforts him, just crushed me. While she might've had a screw loose and enjoyed violence a bit too much, she also simply wanted to be happy with everyone else in the gang. She was interested in David, but knew that the feeling would never be reciprocated. Her own brother got blasted in front of her out of nowhere. The only people she has left is the Maine gang, but everyone starts dying off one by one, she watches David slowly lose it to cyberpsychosis, and let's it all happen because they were doing what they wanted/needed for their own dreams. She saw everything fall apart around her, and then meets her untimely end supporting them. It's just so tragic to me.

My heart is still aching from this. Might be a while for me to recover. I love how in most of the show scenes are chaotic shooty shooty but at the end when only Lucy makes it out alive the pacing of the show slows down by a lot. I'm glad David and Lucy were able to make up before everything happened.... when sh!t got real both of them went away on a sour note but around the climax they both were confronting each other... which is why the glimpse of David and Lucy's confusion and momentary happiness getting taken away to shock and realization and her embracing the sun hurts my heart a lot. That's what Cyberpunk genre is... Night City is like a beautiful curse. Those who manage to get away do not come out of it unscathed, like Lucy, Alt Cunningham, and Rogue Amendiares. They lost everything. No matter how much I wish Lucy and David are together and happy it's Night City that wins in the end, megacorps getting away and continuing their wrath with future young aspiring dreamers becoming legends and repeating the process. Like how David's doc said after he gave him military grade healing thing to keep himself sane. The song will always give me the feelings I felt on the final scene, so will seeing the moon, space, and astronauts. They will always remind me of the deep scar Edgerunners episode 10 left. That ending sequence is too good and painfully heart wrenching, CDPR/Trigger literally rips your heart out and drops it in front of you. The kicker is the ending is a big open note, does she stay on the Moon at which has two known cities, but Arasaka and Militech have mining operations happening in 2077, or will she return to Earth where she might possibly be hunted. Also would like to add a few things just to get it out of my chest: Lucy not once ever said she believes in David like David said he believes in her when Maine messed up and knocked Kiwi out. But she did say she knows David will become a great edgerunner. I think this need for approval sort of drove him as well, she kept things sort of hidden from him and the fact that she was protecting him by killing netrunners who are actively trying to recover the corrupted files she intentionally corrupted to keep David safe. She probably never said she believes in him because she is afraid of losing him. Thinking about it their relationship is a little more deep than I thought, might have to do some self-brainstorming.

Something hit me about the names as I was watching the later episodes. "Main" is the term used in video games for the character class and customization options a player prefers. But it's *also* a term often used for people's highest-level character in an MMO. Which is often the character from their first play-through. The themes of this story revolve *heavily* in places on the idea that David is yet another play-through of "the same game" as Main and the rest of the crew. Only in David's case, it's the *tabletop* version of Cyberpunk and not the video game. No respawns for Edgerunners here.

After finishing the show, and being left in emotionally tatters. I've went through dozens of reviews, reactions and opinions about this wonderfully tragic masterpiece. This review is definitely one of my favorites. I really loved how the characters were emotionally described, and had their actions and consequences acknowledged. The heartfelt appreciation for the crew's complex personalities, and their bittersweet relationship with each other, gave me some much required closure. The beautiful editing of the scenes provided a nostalgic trip down memory lane. The best part has to be, when the OST started playing, and it showed Rebecca helplessly watching David go completely off the deep end, my heart shattered again, together with hers. Going through the comments, it was comforting to know, despite the problems we all are going through, living in this cruel, hateful, clown fiesta of a world, so many people still shared a genuine emotional connection through this series. Thank you so much for this wholesome and entertaining review. Keep up the good work!

This show was honestly great, starting with all the physical aspects of the show thanks to TRIGGER and the production team this was awesome. Now let's talk story. From the moment David's mom died you can see how different this universe is from ours. He couldn't mourn her death like us. He couldn't show feelings because how often this happens and how he had to go to cremate her mother himself. This is the story of the weak people left in the shadows by rich and live-how-i-want capitalists and corporations. The weak deserve to live and love too. And when they don't, they stray away from their path. This is how we don't want our future to be.

I’ve watched so many review videos and none of them quite get into the zone of thought I’m looking for, but you do touch on it. I think part of the reason why we get so attached to these characters is because they are trapped in late stage capitalism. And that has created a world that is not supportive of anyone surviving and actually living. But in that dark place, people seek companionship and family to retain their sense of humanity when everything around them is telling them they should give it up. That’s why Lucy makes it in the end. That’s why people are attached to david and Lucy and rebecca and Maine. They’re trying to survive the impossible.. and we see ourselves in that. Even though, from the beginning, we know there’s no way they can make it. But I was pinned to the screen, wanting to see if they manage to retain or rediscover their humanity as they inevitably succumb to the poisonous system they are trapped in. As they fight addiction to superficial power and drugs, and as they try so hard to make it somewhere else. But they can’t. Because there is no way out for the lower classes in a place like that, even if you decide to dispose your humanity, betray your friends, treat everyone like garbage… even people who seem powerful have no joy, no refuge from the relentless infinity of capitalism. I watch this show, and it is my nightmare, because I can easily imagine it as the future we are hurtling towards.

i really see it posible since cyberpunks are mercs and i just doubt David, Silverhand and V are the only ones that pull off something special, and since the series says, "is not how you live, is how you die", keep in mind it most probably be on others characters that made a huge hit on the city, most importantly, on Arasaka ("the evil corp"). Made an animation arc on silverhand and V might be a waste, we already have the game for that arc. Maybe an arc on the inside of Arasaka (imagine a follow up on Adam Smasher) would be interesting since is well know Arasaka are the responsibles for the cyberpsychos since they test their products on interesting subjects. (such was David on the first place and we see it on the anime). I know Its up to the directors and writters of the universe but i'm pretty sure we could have another series on the future since this arc is well received for everyone (even those who didnt even know the game existed).

Maine was such a real character to me. Because ive had psychotic episodes since i have bipolar disorder. Like i was just completely delusional and thought everyone was against me even though to a normal person they clearly weren't. Thank god i never hit my family but i have hurt other people that arent blood related and destroyed entire classrooms because of these episodes. It made me question my existence like what was wrong with me? Was i born only to destroy and be angry? Should i off myself so i dont hurt anyone anymore? It was really rough. Thankfully after i turned 18 and finally dropped out of school the amount of stress that was relieved made everything just better. and also not having puberty mess with my brain chemistry helped alot. im glad i never attempted to go through with anything. Ironically the suicide ending of Cyberpunk 2077 the game really hit hard for me. It also makes me feel really bad for the "insanity" character. And they did a good job of establishing that maine is a good person underneath the insanity. because that's something alot of those characters dont get which makes no sense. of course no one is going to sympathize with a character that is insane and has no good parts to them. It tells me the writers have no idea about mental illness and its more of a insult than a representation.
