Can You Beat Cyberpunk 2077 as Adam Jensen?

Sorry this video took so long, I just got sucked into my first deep dive playthrough of Cyberpunk 2077 and ended up with 62 and a half hours of footage! I really enjoyed playing Cyberpunk and making a challenge run, and the run even got me back into Deus Ex, so if you guys want to see more and have other challenge ideas as well as how to do them, drop them in the comments!

[@VicViper1984]

This was a really fun and interesting video but I think I'd interpret the build a bit differently than you did. Gorilla arms would be a great alternative to Mantis Blades if you're going for a mostly non-lethal (good guy) Jensen build like all of your pax weapons. Rather than reflexes (my personal favorite too) do tech, cool, and body to give him the borged out, intimidating, but quick thinking and stealthy side of Jensen, which also allows you to emulate his non-lethal takedowns and dumpster lifting strength. Deus Ex had a lot of hacking but it was less of an active combat mechanic as it is in Cyberpunk, you went and interacted with a console to hack and find data and access to cameras and turrets like in CP sure, but you didn't fry the brains of half the facility from across the street like you do in CP, so oddly enough I'd say the Arasaka cyberdeck was a good choice, for authenticity but I'd even go so far as to say that a lower grade Sandy with less time dilation just to represent the cybernetics that enhance his reflex is to handle multiple enemies in close quarters would be a great alternative, as it'd take focus away from doing a function that doesn't represent the core experience of playing Deus Ex (and you can still jack into and hack computers and control cameras from consoles without a cyberdeck) And of course with this setup, you'd probably run a build kinda like this www.cyberpunk.net/build-planner?a=kg9gk&b=100000201121111200000311103110001&r=01000020002010000000300100311&i=101&t=00000000020101000000031101&c=01111111211011000003111113111000001&e=313111131 There's a lot of flexibility there but the main point is having 20 body and cool and at least 15 tech (Edgerunner wouldn't fit because he wouldn't go Psycho, and having at least 9 points in every attribute is worth considering for the extra cyberwear capacity) Skill points focused on stealth , strength, and weapon proficiency across the board and some plenty of speed. And you can spec into some smart/tech weapons and some hacking when desired. 😊

@@cotykilgannon1468thats literally my biggest gripe with CDPR, with a decade to develop this game, they cant have us looking like Shaitan or Songbird. I get that Adam Smasher borg suit might be too much, but Shaitan is a borg too. At least let us have Shaitan level cosmetics based on how much cybernetics you have and have the choice to have synth skin if you want to hide the cyberware. Another thing was height, why couldnt I choose to be 7ft tall? At least let me be a big cyborg that isnt taller than a door frame so they dont have to alter the NC world (6’11-7’0). Dragons dogma could do it but CDPR couldnt. Not to mention it wasnt as immersive in terms of being able to go to lizzies and look at BDs or going a bar and having a drink and seeing the animation or sitting down eating food. Makes me wonder what the spent a decade on. Like no repeatable randomized gigs or being able to be a joytoy (not necessary but why not, they spent 10 years to make this game).

[@Midire]

If we get the Adam Jensen from Deus ex and the trailers, especially if he is from Mankind Divided, the man can quite literally beat anyone not running a sandevistan. Though with quicksilver aug he might have a fighting chance even against Smasher himself. Adam can be a literal ghost. No sign he was even on the same country, other than boss fights, and the few cutscenes.

[@TheKs1387]

Eh really depends how much you wanna stretch sandevistan lore. In Cyberpunk red sandevistan just enhances your reflexes, like a small upgrade from kerinzekov. Adam Jensen is a bullet timer in the comics and arguably in his games too, his greatest bullet time feat saving someone from rifle fire, analyzing the exact type of bullets and the rifle manufacture it came from, a mere metre from said someone and then saving her. Jensen then proceeds to run up whole flights of stairs, with that blurring like effect from a sandevistan and annihlates a black ops team. Jensen is built different man. He clears the cyberpunk gauntlet tbh, with smasher being his most difficult win.

[@redfoxrpg]

Yeah, Smasher has that ocular mod that allows him to see you in the hiding place in Yorinobu’s penthouse, so I’m not sure stealth would be the way to go there, but everyone else 100% and the Quicksilver Reflex Booster helps to deal with the Sandy like you said

The way you fought Smasher is actually pretty close to how Jensen would actually fight him. He would spend the time to analyze how Smasher fights, and then use the best possible strategy, even if it was looked at as underhanded and broke traditional rules. With how his Nano-Blades are formed, I wouldn't put it past him for those blades to easily shred Smasher's armor. Watch him easily get the drop and then shank Smasher through the brain.

I’ll be 100% honest with you, I’ve never played any of the Adam Jensen Deus Ex games, my only Deus Ex game is Deus Ex 2. This video is just a product of a ton of research and love for the character

[@inthemiddleofsomecalibrations]

You got one thing wrong: Johnny won't just get to live for 6 months, he'll be able to live much longer than that, at least in theory. Alt told us that the reason why V only has 6 months is because her body has already been altered in order to fit Johnny's DNA. Therefore, her body sees V as an intruder and tries to excise her from its system, subsequently killing her. Since the relic's alteration of V's body had already progressed quite far, she only has around 6 months before she'll die. Johnny, on the other hand, can live longer than that since his DNA fits the body. Thus it won't reject him and he won't die after 6 months.

[@Cuiasodo]

Oof, bad news on that one Corpo you saved from the cops: if you dig into the case with some of the dialog options, it's all but confirmed that the police were beating the guy up because he used an XBD to essentially drug a girl for nefarious purposes. So, maybe not the best decision in that case. Also, for The Beast in Me, there is arguably a better ending than what you got. It requires you to tell Claire that you're only interested in racing to win when she reveals the real reason she's in the races. When you get to the last race, you follow the Corpo like you did and then, when you try to convince Claire to walk away, she'll actually listen to you. You get to remain friends with Claire, she doesn't have the guilt over killing the guy on her conscience, and you get both Beast from Claire AND the Cthulhu from the Corpo guy as a reward, for free Really like this idea of doing Cyberpunk runs as different characters for the load outs and looks, though.

[@redfoxrpg]

Damn, that’s crazy! That both sucks because finding that truth out would be perfect for Adam, but that’s also really cool since it adds more depth to that one-off encounter. As for the Cthulu, yeah, I watched a video rating all Cyberpunk vehicles on a tier list while editing and found that out. I’m glad I was still friends with Claire, but wish I could’ve gotten Cthulu (Sampson’s kinda mid anyway lmao) Thanks homie, plan to do more in the future!

[@karras6239]

Awesome run, but from what i understand, if you give your body to johnny he can live for way longer since the relic turned your body into his. thats why you have 6 months in that ending if you keep it, alt says "degradation" regarding what "your soul" can do in that situation, thats why she suggest to go with her since "the body is his"

V vs Adam Jensen would be a serious case of "the winner is who you play as" Because both are strong as hell, both to play and to fight.

[@redfoxrpg]

@@yazidefirenze I think each definitely has an interesting case to be made

.....This man was summoning something with all those bloody numbers in his descriptions. Like damn fam. I can respect the commitment to detail, but the numbers just started blending for me.

[@ZMSKfullpower]

It could be intresting battle: Adam Smasher vs Adam Jensen.

[@redfoxrpg]

The battle of the mechanically augmented Adam soldiers, their battle was legendary

[@DanteGroud]

@@redfoxrpg nah my head canon is that Smasher is just Jensen after the events of original Deus Ex game from 2000. Who got somehow recruited into working for Illuminati (thnx Mankind Divided for this). That also can explain why Smasher is fine being 98% chrome

[@ChillyReaper]

This gives me a good excuse to try a more hack based build, and use the corpo lifepath.

[@redfoxrpg]

Netrunner builds look dope as hell in KZbin videos, and I like a lot of the Corpo path dialogue options

[@kinsan89]

27:28 you coulda agreed to the race but that you weren't going to help her kill the guy. Then go to his crash and try to convince her not to kill him. She won't, she'll still be your friend, and the guy will eventually give you his car after a few days

[@InterpolationStation]

I heard somewhere if you do the quest a certain way Sandra winds up scav’ed near a dumpster, implying whoever was going after her got to her.

[@redfoxrpg]

@@InterpolationStation I also heard there was some kind of extension to her quest, I’ll have to look into it for the next Cyberpunk vid

[@travybrown1351]

Good work on the role play I feel like u made Jensen...weird on how close they are with augs/cyberware

[@redfoxrpg]

Yeah, when I was doing the research for the run, I was pretty shocked how 1:1 it was

[@zachialadams9279]

Essentially immune to cyberpsycosis, and pretty much ALL augmentation tech from Deus Ex outclasses anything Cyberpunk has. Adam could tear Smasher to shreds and not even consider it a warmup. Also in canon the Sarif tech cloak and experimental augmentations practically border on magic even compared to cyberpunk tech. I'd love to see a mod that manages to port over all of it somehow.

[@redfoxrpg]

It’d be cool if the hypothetical mod had a lore accurate mod for an authentic experience and then a scaled version since I doubt the authentic version would be all that fun after the novelty wore off lol

[@thesusman6664]

9:19 exactly my situation. Only bug ive ever experienced was during the "sasquatch" fight i got stuck in a wall for a while, so i could freely shoot at her withiut taking damage. Only bugs I've experienced were really minor things, except the 2.1 version bugging, I never really experienced any bugs

[@redfoxrpg]

Someone gave a possible explanation that I thought made sense in the comments: 1.5 basically fixed all the bugs from the initial launch, and patch 1.6 polished off everything, but with the complete overhaul of version 2.0, they basically have to start all over on bug fixes

[@StarHorder]

@@redfoxrpgI just wanna know what caused all the texture glitches. My first guess is it's a driver issue.

Thanks man, I think YOU’RE pretty cool😎

[@atlasprime6193]

At the end of the day, don’t be too afraid to spec up Adam’s build in however you like. Doesn’t matter if Adam here can do the double jump rather than the hold-jump ability that he does in Mankind Divided. Doesn’t matter if he can use multiple quick hacks here rather than just one wireless quick hack he can do in Mankind Divided. Doesn’t matter if he understands technical stuff that would make Pritchard blush because his intelligence is at level 20 unlike his actual intelligence in Deus Ex (which is mainly basic at best). This is a different universe, so you can make up whatever story you want with why Adam is different from his canon part. As long as the cosmetic is met and the rule of cool is followed, this Adam can be whatever you like him to be. His personality can even be different because he didn’t suffer the way he suffered in the first game, so don’t be afraid to make him cruel, a saint, or agreeing to Johnny Silverhand’s ideal.

[@redfoxrpg]

@@atlasprime6193 agreed, concessions have to be made in some regards because it’s a different game/world, but in some instances, you also just have a lot of different equally correct options to choose from. That’s why I love RPGs so much!

[@atlasprime6193]

@@redfoxrpg Personally, I think Adam Jensen in Cyberpunk world would’ve totally said, “I asked for this.”

[@atlasprime6193]

@@redfoxrpg If you’re interested, I made my own video on my Adam Jensen build. Although it’s more on fashion rather than gameplay and it’s only showing him in the Tower ending cutscene. This video is more of a tribute to him after I learned that the franchise got can again.

[@tsulkalu4589]

You can do play through as Robocop. Only Liberty pistol as weapon, because that is close in look if you compare it to Auto-9. No running, crouching or hiding behind cover, only stiff walking with no sudden movement allowed. In perks you get Body, Cool and Engineering to boost damage from pistols and make character tanky. Even with maximum armour stat you will die a loot because lack of movement. Probably impossible to beat Adam Smasher on Hard mode.

[@redfoxrpg]

Wow, that sounds pretty tough! I’ll see what I can do, might have to change some things up to make it possible but I like the distinct lack of mobility. Something I didn’t mention in the video, but I never killed a cop unless I had to and never stole a vehicle and tried my best not to harm civilians, so I like gameplay-affecting role playing choices

[@mightytaco123]

That’s so true the first time I saw the BD part of the game I was like “woooow imagine the possibilities!” And now im like “UUUUUGHHH HURY UUUPPPP!!!”

[@onidarkmoon2381]

Side note from about 9 30, pretty much all the bugs had been taken care of by 1.5(ish) and 1.6 was a major upgrade with streamlining and such. You started the first time when it was pretty much where it needed to be. And then 2.0 hit

[@redfoxrpg]

Ah yeah, that makes sense: 1.5 fixed all the major bugs in the OG version, 1.6 polished everything off, but then 2.0 changed the whole game, so they’ll have to work out all the bugs again

Adam Jensen could actually be a top teir solo even top 10 I’d say

[@redfoxrpg]

Yeah, the 2 most impressive things about Adam when compared to Cyberpunk’s solos are probably his ability to use any augs and mods without rejection, so basically immunity to Cyberpsychosis, and his ability to equip potentially dozens of mods where solos in Cyberpunk like V can typically only equip 1-4, makes him a powerful and versatile threat
