He destroyed everything that made David “special” or feel special in anyway. David built himself up and around his Sandi entirely, but Smasher? He already had how many cybernetics at the point he got his Sandi and was pretty much “yes this will be exceptional tool to my arsenal.” So from Smashers pov I can completely understand how much of a joke that really is, this boy who built himself around his Sandi and thought he was special. But that is no diss on David in anyway shape or form even Smasher said he had fun and choom lasted a decent amount of time against him all things considered, and became that nightcity legend..

His profile in the database says that his humanity was already questionable before his conversion. I like to think that most of us are taught to believe that all people have some good in them somewhere, but in truth, there are those rare accidents of nature or breeding in which some people really are just born broken. Smasher was born without humanity, and tried to fill that void with machinery, but he just became an addict whose life revolves around the next upgrade.

@steinarbergstl5799 Жыл бұрын

There's another similarity between Smasher and Bartmoss other than hybrid gear. They're both "not right in the head". Both of them are, quite honestly, psychos. Smasher may murder people for fun, but Rache doesn't have that much more regard for most other humans beyond a few friends like Spider Murphy. The biggest difference is Rache is fixated on hating corps and other authorities beyond everything else, which directs him in a direction which usually aligns with the PCs who get fucked over by corps and therefore he's one of the "good guys". Smasher just enjoys killing people, full stop, and working for Arasaka gives him what he wants.

Its not that smasher is particularly good, just everyone else is an idiot. Blackhand the legendary solo weapon of choice was a rifle with less power than ar-15. A single shot of .50bmg ETE AP or 20mm autocannon(which us army had manportable in 2020 and wasnt even considered heaviest weaponry for power armor) would kill smasher but people fighting him decide to use low caliber pistols and rifles. That also canonically applies to V, from weapons used in game only the single sniper rifle and the turret MG should actually be able to damage a full borg.

Thanks for explaining this. I hate how people are confused how the mech was for him but never installed it and ends up destroying it.

In the original Tabletop RPG game he was in, the Player Handbook basically described him as "the unbeatable boss that scares the sh** out of you and puts into perspective how weak you actually are in the lore." Even at the highest levels in-game, he is gonna be the boogyman that makes max level players scared to go to sleep at night. The idea is that all of his stats are maxed out and his skills/cybernetics are SUPERHUMAN and completely unattainable by any Player Character no matter what they try. His list of cybernetics is high end and EXTREMELY long, choom. Reading each one stat and cybernetic individually puts into perspective how terrifying he is in lore. They practically describe him as a MYTH because nobody survives an encounter with him. You cannot hack him, you cannot hit him, you can only run and hope his maxed out weapon skills don't get you. And you sure as s**t aren't gonna dissuade him from sending you straight to Jesus. He is unironically, seriously a psychopath in lore and owns it like nobody else ever will His list of cybernetics alone is TERRIFYING because it's basically a novel length description of all of the highest end cybernetics in universe wrapped together into a machine of brutality and unrivaled animosity. To sum up the words of the PHB into a short phrase: "RUN. Do not attempt to fight Smasher. F***ing RUN." Unlike other legends of Night City, who frequently fall short of the legends, ADAM SMASHER DOES NOT. He is EXACTLY what is described in the urban legends of Night City. In a single sentence: Adam Smasher is to the OG lore and expanded universe what V is to 2077.

The reason why V curbstomps Smasher with such ease is because V themself is inhumanely good. For the past several days V has been merging with Johnny Silverhand, gaining experience at an accelerated rate, growing exponentially. And with nothing left to lose, they have also been pumping in new cybernetics as if there's no tomorrow... since there likely isn't. By the time Smasher and V clashed, V has become an army of one, much like Smasher.

The reason why V curb stomps Smasher because of poor gameplay design. And Johnny Silverhand was a singer, he was never known for fighting, the entire memory sequence in Arasaka tower is either a ridiculous retcon or a lie fabricated by Johnny, Morgan Backhand did that to Smasher not johnny, who’s a serial narcissist and over-inflator. Hell the whole “johnny silverhand sends his regards.” Line that your V can say to smasher is met with “are you fuckin joking?” As if to imply that Johnny was an ant beneath his boot that Smasher only vaguely remembers, backed up further by Johnny’s insistence on moving forward.

The boss fight was terribly designed, but if we’re talking continuity- I don’t get why people think V being an absolute beast is so far-fetched. And if being borg’d out the ass isn’t convincing enough, netrunner V can abuse the poor guy from across the room with one quick hack. Edit: Just realized I read over the “for me” part.

@@Controversially_NerdyI mean V is worse than a cyberpunk god, they've potentially completed every single gig in the city from all fixers, has every single implant available, they're a multimillionaire, has the highest possible street rep, some of the most dangerous equipment and gear that exists, has two minds in one body, has custom equipment they crafted and is the next thing to being fully cyber. V has gotten through the Blackwall and comeback, has killed countless gangmembers from every single gang in Night City, tamgled with multiple rogue AIs (and evem befriended some of them), has gone on multiple cyberpsycho rampages mowing down countless MaxTac victims like they were ants, they've survived a bullet to the brain, kidnapped Arasakas, and assaulted every major corportations and led a one man assault against the entire Arasaka HQ and killed pretty much person inside...why wouldn't V be able to take on Adam Smasher? V isn't a god, they're a godkilling nightmare - and Night City will probably be forever grateful that they only have 6 months to live. The Adam Smasher boss was still too easy though even if you speedrun the game and don't equip any cyberware - but that's not a lore problem, lore accurate V is scary, it's just not a very difficult game. Hopefully one day they'll give us a much scarier version of the boss fight at least on very hard mode, just so we can have a bit more of a challenge.

@daltongarrett3393 10 ай бұрын

@@pnobodi5341I mean, all the shit V is installing is still just over the counter stuff, even if it’s the best stuff you can get over the counter. the range and amount of implants and cyberware he can get is also pretty limited relative to full cyborgification and everything else that’s out there in the lore. Smasher on the other hand is the pinnacle of engineering and bleeding edge technology. He’s a legendarily gifted killer with the better part of a century of experience, stuffed to the gills with the most expensive, experimental shit arisaka can make or get their hands on, customized specifically for his use, and no expense has been spared in making him the most efficient weapon in existence

@pnobodi5341 10 ай бұрын

@@daltongarrett3393 If you mean "over the counter" literally, then yeah, but if you're saying that to point out V's cyberware as run of the mill, I disagree. NC is pretty much a city-sized black market, and V states at least twice that even Kabuki has the best stuff around. I don't think it's crazy to say that NC ripperdocs are capable of providing corporate-grade cyberware, or something rivaling it. Does it make sense? idk, but evidently it worked because we spend the game spanking everybody. Not worrying about cyberpsychosis because of an extra psyche is also a plus. Again, V is a beast

He kept the Samson Head because the Dragoon Head is what makes you fucking crazy. The Dragoon head has so many extra senses it causes almost instant psychosis upon the users biopod being place within it. They got around this by putting a behavior program in the FBC that basically gets rid of your sense of self and makes you a loyal soldier. Direct quote from Chromebook 2 for Cyberpunk 2020: “an officer tells the dragoon go here and destroy this and the dragoon simply replies with Yes Sir…”. Adam got rid of the head and knew his brain could handle the over 8 weapon hard points and the massively increased strength and speed the dragoon body offered. (Running speed of 50 mph and full lifting capacity of 800kg)

We have 1 year before Arasaka gets nuked again and with neither of their corpses there's a chance to get David and Rebecca back as engrams that could be uploaded into living bodies.

Smasher's strength isn't just his chrome, but also his experience. Dude's like, what, 100+ years old at this point? And he spent most of that time in combat. Just look at his reaction to seeing David in that mech-thing. David probably thought "oh, powerful chrome," but Smasher immediately saw it's flaw: It's too heavy and reliant on anti-grav to even stand up. Which is funny considering 'Saka made it FOR him, lol. It's like getting a new tool and just going "bro, this shit sucks!" Also, I doubt Smasher is dead. Dude has backups of backups of his brain, and dozens of bodies, including an Elvis one for "special" occasions.
