Rest in peace “zoomy eyes”
I didn't know the eyes could zoom until I started watching this channel
@rustyjones7908 This was a while ago, but I must know how? They have a highlight for how much zoom you get
7:17 "The fact that he rolled over the table twice for no reason just fills him with the exaggerated swagger of a mexican chrome man. It gives me goose bumps every time he does it"
Technically speaking, the entire game is “can i beat cyberpunk without dying”
One of the stealth perks is broken. Instead of making it take longer for enemies to notice you, it makes them notice you instantly. Looks like you may have taken that perk
Watching your videos is so weirdly calming haha
I enjoy them so much! 😁
Found the channel a couple days ago been watching all the challenge videos non stop while doing my second play through
for your throwing knives run (I did one myself quite recently) you can use distract enemy quickhacks in the first Sandra Dorsett level to get a perk point to spend on throwing knives on the very first level.
Another awesome run. Would've been interesting to see a Don't Fear the Reaper run like this, but totally understand not wanting to level up to 50 to make that feasible. Still, badass and awesome. Love your work.
6:15 Am I the only who finds the combination of Jackie's quote and the standing dead guy simply golden? XD
Kongu, Lizzie, Fenrir is a sick loadout I'm 100% down with.
Awesome, I’ve been wanting to watch the streams. Thanks for the post of that.
Loved hanging with you on the directs! amazing video.
Yo that was a great idea. I'm looking forward for another challenges that you have
Heck ya a new video, your videos have made me want to play cyberpunk for myself.
OMG Yay throwing knife run. I'm excited for this one. Also nice video. So very excited for the next run.
I saw one of the streams, i was so excited to finally see the video come out :D
I enjoyed watching the streams and now the video ❤
Buzzsaw would have also probably helped with a permadeath run as well. Because like tech weapons it can fire through objects and it can still ricochet. Shooting through objects would have allowed you to hide around corners and shoot enemies without exposing yourself to return fire most of the time. Honestly one of my of my favorite weapons in the game. Only downside is it does chew through your ammo fast.
if you are patient you can always craft nekomata (even on missions that forces you to deposit your guns) and ping/shoot through walls.
I love the b roll in the intro, always such a pretty game!
Fun challenge run, thx for the video.
For a future challenge, I suggest a spin wheel randomizer run.
After every main mission, you spin a wheel with every weapon category + fists, then you can only use that type of weapon until you finish another mission. You can avoid combat with every weapon type but only do stealth kills/takedowns if you spin out fists. This is effective for level up/grinding too, so for example, you finish a mission and spin out shotguns, then you can only do ncpd scanners side gigs etc with shotguns until you finish another mission and spin again.
If you want it to be harder, you can use the spin wheel to distribute attribute and perk points too.
Yes - I have done it twice.
#1 was a Netrunner w/ tech-shotgun, super easy.
#2 was a sandivestan build... much much harder.
about netwrunner w/ satara (point 1), you dont even need any points in intelligence to pull it off. It's just stupid that the only (sane) way to get a legendary one is paying 10k at all foods. The other is massive reloads for on 'occupation hazard', doing in the 40s lvl.
Love the content. Sad that I couldn't see the stream but hopefully I'll catch one next time. One idea I could think of is a nuzlocke for cyberpunk where you grab a gun and whatever ammo Is in that gun is it's hp basically. When it hits 0 you gotta throw it away and find/get a new one. Guns only otherwise melee would just negate the challenge. There's definitely some problems with it but there's probably a way to make it work.
Hey I love your cyberpunk challenge content a lot! But I was wondering if you ever considered briefly talking through the perks and skills you use as your progress through the missions for challenges to get insight on how you pull these off
Yeah I’ve thought about it. It is a lot of information but I could look into it more!
Nice run! I feel like you need to do this run (and maybe some others) again in the current patch, now that ricochet isn't busted and other things are harder i.e. smasher
14:30 the 5 seconds of that song playing sent me spiralling back into a state of emptyness, edgerunners has fully broken me.
honestly this game makes you overpowered right from the get go. dying in this game is the challange
True but the best part is the different builds you can have kinda makes it play different.
Damn hardcore minecraft cyberpunk edition lol. Super cool video, so obviously I'm gonna watch it to the end.
i love that someone else found the fun in the ricochete, maybe should be a thing only kill with trick shots, i mean not only floor bounce or better not only 1 bounce
Throwing knives only??? I’m already excited for it
Please keep up the content, you are the funniest cyberpunk personality ive seen.looking at you handsometez *meow*
If I ever try this I'd probably do a netrunner build that let's me sit back and kill the enemies from a safe distance.
With the new limited, time baeed heals i think it’d be interesting to see you revisit this challenge
I'm gonna be seeing Female V's voice actor this weekend and I'm super excited
Spiderman build run. Grapple hook, monowire, sandevistan, sticky grenades, camouflage, stealth drop takedown, max damage for fists and of course non lethal for kiroshi optics eye. Hacking, disable enemies, max health, max armor, immune to electric, chemical, thermal, max damage over time for bleed resistance, and max mitigation. I don't know what the best way to go about it is. I wonder if the grapple hook can pull enemies towards you?
Armadillo Mods… haven’t heard that term in months 😂
Would love to see a no Cheese Mechanics run. No stealth, no ricochet, no cyberware, no procs ect.
Listen, i would have been surprised if you died bc you can get really op in this game and ive only ever Died when i was acting dumb. Either way awesome run and very fun to watch
you bringing up how you can’t die in the takemura driving segment reminded me of how the first time i played i didn’t take the inhaler he offers you because i thought he poisoned it or something, so i just watched as he got shredded by the assassin and drove us into a light pole
Did that too. On a silent, no streams. Never finished it: either shit happens, or you nail it, and it gets duuuuull.
im wondering would the suicide ending count as a fail? or would it be a win?
Rick Oshe is the MVP.
Again another great video. One thing . I realized when you have to wait for a call, go to your apartment and sleep for a whole day (sometimes 2 days. After you wake up, you will get a call, but it only works, when you sleep in your apartment not when you just wait through the menu.
I feel like I’ve tried a lot of things like that and they all seem to help and don’t at the same time 🤷🏻♂️
Thanks to your videos I know how busted ricochet is lol. The game doesn't explain this mechanic very well and I always went for smart weapons. But as far as I understand you have a perk that increases damage by 45%, a Cyberware that increases it by another 50%, and a muzzle that increases it by a further 140% lol. It's insane.
But does it do any more damage on its own without those things?
Its funny how takemura sends 5 messeges telling to knock 4 times we get angry for him spamming and we still fail to follow the order😂
I accidently did a "no death allowed" run on my very first playthrough right after game launch - went full netrunner / stealth and it was sooo broken. They fixed some of the op mechanics with patches - and rightfully so - but back then it was so strong, it wasn't fun anymore.
When he said that Yorinobu was going to have a tap dance off with his dad, I was like, “WTH is he talking about?” Just to lmfao a few seconds later 😂
5:20 *can see bullet in pistol*
Game: "Your out of ammo"
Hadn't noticed the lack of falloff from ricochet. Wondering if it's possible the falloff is calculated, except that ricochet measures the distance relative to the last point of contact before reaching the target rather than to the barrel.
Hey like your videos a lot man. Quick questions, did this game get harder in any of the updates? I have a lvl 49 character and tried don’t fear the reaper and got insta killed in the lobby with 677 health and around 1000 armor and some random encounters worked me over as well on very hard. I’m sure there are mechanics I’m not using but I was surprised I got destroyed so easily. I went into tech reflexes and body cool evenly split. Thanks!
There’s a chance you ran into a damage type your very susceptible to (ie physical or poison) I’ve had that happen to me a couple times
I’m pretty sure it did but I’ve felt the same way lately .. on my first play through since 1.6 I swear Sasquatch, oda, and a few other fights I’ve done so far we’re definitely more difficult than they were pre 1.6
@@SayMy_User_Name same here. It’s easy to do high damage with crafting etc but damage taken seems to have jumped up quite a bit
@@remydetrou734 without a doubt .. i didn’t do the parade mission until I was level 45 I think in my recent play through and I had a rough time beating oda .. if he caught me once or twice with those mantis blades I was dead .. I kinda like it though, rhe power fantasy stuff works well with random goons n during gigs, it’s fun to just destroy a gang of dudes, but when it’s comes to boss fights, it’s not satisfying to just blast a guy 4 times n he’s dead lol so I like that they upped the challenge for the boss fights, it needed it
@@SayMy_User_Name totally agree with that. Only thing that frustrates me is the seemingly random auto save system lol
next up stealth run with constant flashbangs and reboot optics
I’ve done a no death run of the game before using a Pistol and Health and Armor build
Would like to see a random roll where you can only boost one stat (rolled randomly) to 20 before rolling another random stat to boost. Could make an interesting gameplay choice. While rolling reflex, tech would be normal, an int + body would be interesting, a body + cool would be a tank.... etc...
Great info. I didn't know those guns did that much damage. I'm tryng the same thing as you perma death. I'm leveling up my character by doing all the gigs in Watson before I take the ride with your daddy and use monowire. I'm level 19 44 street cred with all the bells and whistles. I'll let you know what happens. Thanks!
*goes to stealth*
*failes at the actual very first chance*
I've failed to stealth it once. And that was v1.0 cause of the looking through walls they had, you do have to drag the bodies and the place you put them is just away from a spawn.
(Also a tip, there is light and exposed based detection for the player, if you have no experience with how it works it's a pain. The cyberware that slows time when you start to get spotted is pretty neccesary to learn it. You got spotted in the Judy mission cause you were too close to the front of the railing, and possibly the cycle put her slightly forward (if she's too forward she can see you from the bottom of the walkway it's annoying))
I think you kept getting caught at the mall with the Animals because you weren't accounting for some of the stealth mechanics. For instance, just standing behind the door at 17:25 when the guy was moving to open it to investigate what was going on
I'd also advise using ping to keep track of the enemies
Hope those help :)
*tries to do a stealth run*
*becomes the combat tank of night city*
I’m glad they’re doing things like adding a cooldown for healers and grenades and improving the enemy A.I.
Without mods, the game has always been just ridiculously easy. You can spam the inhalers without a problem, throw nearly infinite amounts of grenades, craft grenades and ammo everywhere, and easily stealth past dumb enemies. It’s almost hard to die.
Wait how did you get the "ghost cars" when going after Hellman on the bikes? I only get waypoints
Throwing knives are so fun! Honestly not much of a challenge, at least later into the game. It can be very difficult at first.
But for a real challenge, you should try a Many a True Nerd style YOLO challenge. He did one in Fallout 4 where he was not allowed to heal at all, all damage was permanent.
Could be interesting! I like the idea, I just got a couple other I want to do first!
Rougelike cyberpunk is something I'm into. I dig that. Like a lot. I want to try that.
you finally did it
“Sit in the mud? Noice”
14:05 🤣🤣🤣Pan Am is RAGING!
Can you beat bioshock 2 with only melee bash
You should do cyberpunk while drunk in game
I think they increased the difficulty on very hard with the 1.6 patch .. I played through the game multiple times pre 1.6, but I’ve been going through the main missions for the first time after 1.6 and i dont know, from what I remembered so far, Sasquatch, oda, and the fight to escape the building with takemura we’re all much harder than I remembered them being previously.. same goes for the enemy detection, they def tweaked it , if u don’t spec into cool & some stealth perks u get detected immediately now
Been starting a new game on very hard every time I die.
I'm just waiting for Phantom Liberty news so i know when i can get back into the game
A perma death run, But with no using healing items
You managed to beat Adam Smasher with a gun only?! I usually have to rely on a mixture of guns and netrunning.
With the s**cide hack you can do the gym very stealthfully
permadeath is sooo awesome.
Try a Challenge Run without using Atributes or Skill points. Or in other Words, try to only use the Starting Atributes. Would be interesting to see if you can made it.
"I'm Outta of ammo" um excuse me
"So permadeath is if i die ingame then i die irl"
Can you beat Cyberpunk only using Cyberware.
You're only allowed to do damage using cybwerware (smart link is only allowed for projectile launch system and balistic coprozessor is not allowed all together).
All armor and resistances have to come from cyberware.
You can only craft cyberware mods.
You're not allowed to use any healing or buff items if it's not cyberware so no maxdocs or health boost as well as no well rested and regen from sleeping, shower and anything simmilar (Health regen perks are allowed).
You're not allowed to do any skillchecks unless it involves cyberware (gorilla arms for opening doors for example).
You must play on very hard at all times.
(*OPTIONAL*) You're not allowed to get any perks unless they involve cyberware (crafting perks for cyberware mods or quickhacking for example).
you cant even perma death this game canonically
What no cyberdeck? Or...not using short circuit on the drones after Heist. Its easy to stealth Konpecki but you have to do quick saves after completing each segment but i've done it dozens of times. You also have to bait the guard with the elevator key by leaving a body for him to find at a specific position in the hallway for him to come investigate, same with 1 of the guards near the elevator. And...I have died on the car ride with Takemura (glitch?) while shooting every enemy and it was before Mantis blade man which I thought was wierd. I always stealth thru the GIM, its easy even on very hard. Its not too difficult to stealth past Sasquatch without optical camo. But over the years CDPR has changed the path thru (changing animal routines and doors to enter). Are you not allowed to do quick saves?
Hey, what about a splinter cell run the hardest difficulty only stealth If you're even spotted you must reset the encounter also no tech hacking people, and finish the special ending. Maybe this one is hard enough for Ya lol keep up the vids still haven't got to get the game yet but I've still been enjoying your videos.
kongou 🔛🔝
And this is why Smasher is as easy as he is. He is the final boss fight of the game, and you can beat the game even lower level then this. The reason some of the cyberpsychos and optional bosses are harder, is because well, they're optional. It sucks that Smasher is forced to suck when in lore he should be able to pick you up and tear you in two - but he has to be designed to be beaten by the majority of players.
I'd LOVE an update that adds an optional menu slider for Smasher akin to Johnny's optional appearance. One that makes him as hard as he has every right to be. That way the people that just wanna beat the game get vanilla Smasher, and everyone else could get Edgerunners Smasher
Wait, You fast forwarded through it but you took down netwatch so didnt you die an *avoidable* death to Placides hack? It is hard to see because you fast forward but its an important moment here.
Even if its story based and you get back up, you *can avoid it* so it still counts against any no death challenge (Unlike the one after the heist which cant be changed)
It’s a story based death so I don’t count it, just like the main one with dex.
With the power of geometry...
Do one without reloading, you can only use the first clip of every gun
Throwing knife only run? It would work like fermjng for throeing knife upgrade before getting into the story then playingnthe game without usingnthe knives as melee
awesome!
The fact that Oda is dumb enough to activate camouflage when he's LITERALLY ON FIRE is hilarious to me.
Fun fact about the nomad intro: You can ram your car into the people, causing police to be called, which forces you into combat, allowing you to pull out your gun. A lot of the enemies are super high level, and you cant level up before the Sandra Dorsett mission, but it is possible tho difficult to kill that asshole cop in the beginning.
It is easier to kill him if you pick up Jackie first, then charge them, as Jackie will assist you in combat.
Good to know!
Ok, so I saw your comment and decided to try this. A few notes:
You can just run over everyone. It is the best way to kill the sheriff.
There is a city border. The moment you cross the border your HP regens to full.
NPCs in the area seem to aggro at you permanently, so as soon as you re-enter the area, townsfolk will start to shoot.
There is actual law enforcement in the area. Police will keep respawning and getting stronger the higher your wanted level.
I just recently got the game and i chose nomad and I was not good at driving because the controls are so horrible with driving I kept crashing into civilians and had to restart about 4 times
does he drop anything good?
