Become a LEGEND - Don't Fear the Reaper SECRET Ending in Cyberpunk 2077! (Very Hard)

[@benjamin_winters]

Chooms! Thank you for watching! Really hope you enjoyed one of my most cinematic runs.

[@rossnorris2351]

And What katanna are you using?

[@placeholder2396]

What's the song at 3:35? It isn't listed in the description.

[@elitedangerous7591]

thanks man, really....now I have to go and play it all over again.

[@nobodyimportant4778]

Fun fact: in the tabletop game, the malorian arms is not only so powerful that it hurts you to fire it without a robot arm, but it also failed to even damage adam smasher's armor.

[@vladg832]

Thanks for sharing that.

[@felicia7941]

really want to know what the tabletop game is like how do u play it?

[@Godzilla_Star_Eater]

It's so powerful that it doesn't damage Smasher? How is that impressive? It doesn't even damage him

[@joshuapatrick682]

Yeah but I Upgraded it to max tier;)

[@NeonRiff]

I was really hoping there’d be an ending where if you got Johnny’s approval rating up high enough through side quests and dialogue choices that Alt would figure out a way to remove the relic and Johnny would be able to remain inside V’s head. As if their body recognized them both as the host so they’d both get to live. I miss my choom 😢

[@Babushkabongwatr]

That would've been sick

[@julientabulazero103]

A happy ending ? Wrong people. Wrong city.

[@antialpaka1186]

@@julientabulazero103 Imma be honest, if I had known that there is no "good" ending I wouldn't have played the game, I played through it once and then watched all the other endings and it killed my entire interest in the game.

[@clarencewalters338]

That would have been what happened if not for the relic and V's brain being damaged. The relic exists to interact with constructs so likely we'd have similar interactions with Johnny but the Biochip would no longer fulfill it's secondary purpose of rewriting the neural environment it's nested in.

[@JedHazel]

@@antialpaka1186 thats a weird reason ngl

[@ibelieveingaming3562]

David: _gets smashed in a pitched fight_ V: _cuts his fucking arm off with a sword_

[@AnxyTp]

Becuase V is canonically built the fuck different. From an anime standpoint V speed blitz'd faster than smasher speed blitz'ing David lol and near enough one shots him

[@DEViL_X1612]

V is living legend thats all i can say hands down

[@Godzilla_Star_Eater]

V is basically Raiden from Metal Gear, but faster.

[@Chuck____]

"Huh, you just discovered what it takes to become a legend" absolute chills

[@ichigo05027]

You just played beautifully, what a fucking amazing gameplay! Would love to see a complete playthrough of this game from you.

[@srarayko]

2:47 is so cold, love this game, Keanu Reeves, and the entire feeling.

[@xxlonesomewolf8284]

One of my favorite Johnny Silverhand quotes, when he actually acknowledges your level

[@clarencewalters338]

​@@xxlonesomewolf8284especially seeing as he's been grinding your gears something fierce the whole game about being a petty thief, and literally says Rogue won't trust you with his plan because you're still in "Merc Diapers" in her eyes.

[@srarayko]

@@xxlonesomewolf8284 It feels really good, maybe a little weird to say, but the whole mono/dialogue between them two all game was amazing, every time Johnny appeared on the first playthrough was just awesome.

[@jackfinley1454]

YOOOOOOO I’M BEYOND HYPED FOR THIS!!!!

[@AcrylicJumbo]

Absolutely crazy gameplay, love the cinematic slow mo and brilliant choregraphy

[@Luiz.Henrique00]

V is a character that conquers you in every way, what a legend.

[@WanderingCrow]

I did that one recently, blunt weapon only on very hard. Damn was I glad I had strong cyberwares, cause this place is no joke. Anyway, that was a fantastic run, good job! I love how smooth the action looks in your videos, this one is no exception. Keep up the good work!

[@eitan8144]

How high is your Johnny relationship?

[@WanderingCrow]

@@eitan8144 On this run, I was at 70% before the point of no return

[@cruz6550]

what happened if you reach to 100 and how do i get that secret ending ??? i knew something about waiting 10 minutes to get the secret mission. But i dont know how your jhonny % affects you or the game This run i choose to get closer to Johnny but i have no idea what it is doing yet

[@antiprime295]

@@cruz6550 70% is maximum. secret ending is unlocked by picking certain dialogue options near Silverhand's grave. tons of videos on that, you can check them out

[@indeedthatguy]

​@@antiprime295pretty sure they patched it. I'm at 85% in my current save

[@nickshaffer7659]

between the music, the way you take out enemies in all sorts of ways and how smooth it all went its like im watching a little movie its great man. makes me wanna play again.

[@olegyushutin2832]

The setup and music reminded me of the most enjoyable mission in Control, - the Maze. Rarely the devs make the music actually follow the actions and drive you up

[@joshuapatrick682]

If the missions all used song titles then there could be no more fitting choice. I had wondered why it wasn’t used in the game before this as it seemed thematically Perfect. Bravo CDPR, you did this one right.

[@kitsqui5829]

I can already tell this is going to be top tier Like all of BW's videos honestly

[@eliyaitou4292]

Just did this ending. Immediately after, opened KZbin and i see this run. Fantastic. Now i gotta do it again.

[@thecodenamenoob4042]

1 min in I can already tell this is gonna be insane much love been obsessed with these videos and shorts lately! So satisfying

[@straysheep5312]

6:50 This part was fire!!!!!!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@milagrosgutierrezmartin9506]

God that was beautiful, and the way you went through the missiles at the end, lol, Vanishing point is no joke

[@professorkittyhawk]

The moment this popped up in my sub box, I *knew* it was gonna be epic and badass and amazing. After finally watching it, it was all that and much, much more. Hail to the master!

[@xennethsixx2838]

This was beautiful to watch, reminded me of a cut scene or an E3 clip

[@joelike7787]

holy hell @6:50 was so preem !!! straight out an action movie

[@vladyslavbobal4180]

Damn, this was so good. You never fail to surprise.

[@Dushhh]

"time to party like it's 2023". ironic.

[@guy_autordie]

It's insane how V is a fucking shinigami. What did the tech do? Replace 2 small but very effective teams of 4 people each by one dude. I got the SMG legendary yinglong (something like that, got IEM effect) and switch gameplay, not attributes, just the gameplay of my stealth fabricator cool netrunner. The hanako meeting when the 6 elite arrived and mow down the members in the jungle, I mow them down in 20 sec (in veryhard), with a build with nothing in any reflex attributes. (8 reflex level) Smart smg with legendary smart link, limbic and visual cortex. The sender of invitational letters known as "please die bullets".

[@xuanqili184]

This ending was absolutely painful on very hard after the 2.0 update.

[@The-eldest]

Good job. I really like see other peoples builds when they do this ending

[@thephoenix8892]

About to do my first run of this mission with the netrunner/melee hybrid build you made a video on and this video is definitely hyping me up lol

[@Flora_of_the_Moon]

There’s a mod that adds a kill counter to Johnny’s pistol. It would be really cool to see you do a video using it. Maybe you only have enough bullets to kill every enemy in the mission in one shot and the kill counter ticks up while the ammo counts down? Could be cool

[@t0ky0made]

I’m excited for this😆!

[@NotEnoughSpots]

4:05 its literally the scene from Indiana johns i guess a piece of tech going haywire in your head is a far fetch for food poisoning but still

[@duykhanhcloud6866]

After playing the new ending has to get back to this ending ,sorry Reed but i chose the blaze of glory fuck quiet life.

[@shanetsosaikich4745]

I can see it now. Arasaka is going to clone smasher and reupload him...

[@OnefortheAges-u1c]

I always choose Star ending. I know I’m cliché but yeah. I’m NetRunner build, haced saved ammo. Anyways, Your channel came recommended, took a look and I’m speechless. Your play style is a work of art, filled with creativity that has me in complete awe. Just to let you know, I’m now your official subscriber. I admire you, Truly.

[@benjamin_winters]

Thank you so much!!!

[@joshuapatrick682]

I hope this is the ending they make canon for Orion.

[@juliocesarbarrosnunes5280]

I love your Cyberpunk 2077 videos. Unfortunately my Xbox one isn't reading the Cyberpunk CD anymore and I don't have the money to buy the digital media, so I keep myself informed about the game through your channel and your gameplay videos. I hope you continue with the great work you do. I'll accompany the Phantom Liberty with you. =)

[@tianrunzhang6557]

1:04 Time to party like it's 2023

[@a.z7469]

This is literally the ending of the first Matrix film.

[@cashbanucita0025]

[@noiz5078]

Some damn good cinematic fights you did there 😎👍

[@Dark_Sun95]

Amazing Video and Music is SMASHING!

Looks like you really are special, Benjamin Winters.

[@korakatk318]

That was fucking incredible

Beautiful run my man, runner-malorian is love

[@placeholder2396]

What's the song at 3:35? It isn't listed in the description.

[@w00master]

Still the best ending

[@glowerworm]

No 360 before killing Adam, but no doubt from your skills, you could've done it if you wanted to. Must've been too cheesy lol. Still, you took him out in style. Awesome vid!

[@JarvisScouting]

Biblically accurate V:

[@martywittenberg1427]

Excellent Video. The only ending i have yet to complete. I do not have a gun build but i look forward putting my Gorilla arms through this. It's the pure way or no way for me. But this showed me what to expect. It's going to be fun. Since i am maxing out Cool,Body and Reflex..i can go about it in several ways by the time i get there.

[@IricAlexis]

have been waiting for this since the first time i found this channel. love it, especially after seeing that edge runner thing.

[@zWszeRafael]

This video is very good, congratulations

[@zero13z34]

That first sword hit on Smasher was incredible. Holy fuck man!

[@suras8849]

Amazing footage! How were your attribute points distributed?

[@vladg832]

Very smooth and cool gameplay!

[@southernlocust]

Positively Freaking PREEM!

[@Aearian]

What the fuck. Calculated, precise, deadly. This gameplay is SICK!

[@veladarney]

Aaaaa, good memories ... me and Johnny and my Lizzie running circles around Smasher. Literally. *lol* It was an epic ending - only true ending for me.

[@abdu8359]

I love 6:48, amazing job!

[@Tzimisce3]

I hate the fact that you can preclude yourself this ending, I've played the game 3 times and still didn't manage to reach that damn 70% link with Johnny, well, I thank you Benjamin for the awesome work

[@jroderigues]

I’m currently at 85% with Johnny

[@jamesbagwell8820]

your videos have gotten much better over time man. First few were kinda wack but now you're killing it, good stuff dude! I thought I was good at the game but sheesh, you're like god tier lol

[@nicolaos355]

This game deserves so much more in terms of difficulty level. Its asking so much for something similar to how borderlands series works. Right now unmodded game feels like children's garden even on "very hard" mode.

[@kingol4801]

Sure, but it is accessible to more people.

[@Flexer0017]

You're precision is top notch

[@UviZether]

You made Very Hard mode not seem Very Hard- but this background beat be hittin Very Hard holy sheez!

[@CoolHatTom]

Can a run like this still be done after Phantom Liberty, with the quickhack changes and the new skill trees? Beautiful work by the way. I wish I looked this good playing Cyberpunk lol.

[@wtfbbqpwnzercopter7737]

This is the best ending so far. Fortune favors the bold I guess.

[@condortvanlor5372]

damn good combat skills. Nice to watch.

[@tunnelrat9548]

I love how stupidly broken ricochet is in this game😂

[@clarencewalters338]

"let's reward the player with a 250% damage increase for aiming poorly" 😹

[@kingol4801]

@@clarencewalters338Yes. Because otherwise the exact likes of you would whine about how unrewarding it feels, or how “boring” the gameplay is (since you choose to deliberately avoid doing things to have fun that offer no direct reward).

[@clarencewalters338]

@@kingol4801 I wasn't whining? 250% is just a large increase for aiming at the floor instead of your target considering there are perks that don't even scratch 1/5 of those numbers.

Gg. Nice gameplay ! ❤️

[@user-kc5ec1lr1m]

Dude you're amazing... This is how the game was meant to play by God it seems.

Intentionally not watching past you humiliating smasher because I still haven’t had any of the endings spoiled for me 😂 but holy shit that was amazing.

saw your clip on the gamers are awesome video shit was dope!!!

I have to play through this again tomake sure i get this ending

I’m curious on how your right arm is all cybernetic?

[@dylanstacey6782]

You should record another runthrough of this in 2.0, I know I'd love to watch it!

I wonder what Smasher says if you don’t spare Oda

[@TheLaluciDaniel]

I would love to do this, but with a max level netrunner build, and just stride in slowly, wreacking chaos and death around me.

[@mazrimirl]

What makes this a secret ending, its the first one I done, its the basic go it alone option, the ending doesn't start till after this.

[@SternLX]

The New Adam Smasher battle in the 2.1 update is no f'n joke on Very Hard difficulty. Try it. :)

[@DoObs]

Adam Smasher my first play through I didn't do side Gigs so my character was weak asf, took me forever to kill him.....but I played it recently for the 3rd time, And I chopped him up into pieces at LVL 50 (completed all side gigs) with my Legend black and gold katana XD

[@Jyan1991]

What build do you run ben?

[@LukeWatson121]

when I did this ending I put on the song Don't Fear the Reaper and put it on repeat

I did this one and loved it. Barely made it tho, enjoyed the thrill.

Is this still your net samurai build? Might have to start a new save

[@benjamin_winters]

Indeed!!

[@cski4048]

So if i solo the last mission and win it still the Panam ending?!

[@LiLbUg99]

How does that gun work exactly? seems like shooting at the ground guarantees a headshot? I did this missions and it was insanely hard, I suspect I had a build that didn't match the way I played (didn't realise there were different OS's so just ran with the one with the best hacking) This just seems fake compared to how hard it was for me, but no-one else thinks so which means I'm doing something wrong.

[@Scarlet_moon.]

Wait there are data shards in Mikoshi chamber,are they even reachable?

[@Jinxonxanax]

I'm so pissed off I didn't do this route... tbf that was some high tier gameplay... I'll wait like 5 or 10 years till the tech improve, get a better pc, buy the game on pc and rep'ay the whole game but this time with a mouse and keyboard and instead of losing rogue I'll go this route instead.

[@jalengrigsby314]

Does legendary short circuit one shot basic enemies on this build?

[@benjamin_winters]

Yup! That's why you see most of the enemies on the ground writhing around in pain lmao

[@clarencewalters338]

Most basic enemies will drop to a legendary shortcirc, those that won't are considered mega tough, but still likely won't be able to stand up to more than a few seconds of DPS after the initial burst.
