Makes you more of a warlock, as you are channeling the power of a horror beyond your comprehension and in exchange help it find a way to murder your entire species, including yourself.

[@nikushim6665]

Eh not really, Netrunners main function in tabletop isn't even represented in 2077 at least not for the player (only thing close to it is when you get jacked in by the voodoo boys to meet Altiera. And you cant really do anything in there) Cyberware hacking is something completely different from netrunning in 2020 or RED. Netrunning was kinda like jacking into the matrix, though more so the otherway around since second edition CP2020 predated that movie by nine years. CDPR did kind of a shit job at translating over the world, hell they couldn't even get the canon right.

[@Verystoic]

I had thought of this myself, as a means of fulfilling the cyberpsychosis type scenario, you find a cure, an absolute cure that would otherwise be a happy ending, though rogue a.i. but as a dark twist you and your cured body are now an extension of it's sky-net will. It would really shine a light on David Martinez's "cautionary tale", except that v is able to grapple with it and maintain relative stability, and now this is your new life. A nightmarish symbiosis with an a.i. that's trying to corrupt you in return for a free ticket to resume the life you had before the biochip. More powerful and unstoppable than ever, and free to actually live, but with a homicidal a.i. riding on your shoulder, a danger to everyone around you and the only thing between them and a terminator apocalypse style scenario is your sheer will to live . Or a potential devil ending, you give in to it And become a big bad villain yourself. Ending up like so mi just, not on your death bed, truly forsaking what was left of your humanity and just going full on GLaDOS on night city. I mean just imagine a playthrough of that, or a new game plus that just for the fun of it replaces the biochip malfunctions with the a.i. "chipping in" maybe it even ACTIVELY tries to overthrow you during those moments of deterioration and you have to do a quick-hack sequence, and if you fail, it damages you a bit. I went off the rails but the rogue a.i. angle is just really fun.

[@tinycarrot718]

she could be, but you'd think johnny would say something if it was, no? At least like... Hey... Your face is familiar lol

[@tinycarrot718]

Also it's kinda known Johnny's memories are kinda not what really happened, Johnny was killed by smasher inside the tower, not on the roof, so technically no, yoko never met Johnny

[@Invictus-XVI]

Remember the runner that was with Johnny and rouge in his memories? Spider Murphy. Well, Silverhands memories aren't exactly what happened, Courtesy of Arasaka. Smasher ended up killing Johnny because he was willing to sacrifice himself so that his friends could escape the blast radius. Smasher killed Johnny on the roof of the tower. And with all the fighting going on, It was Murphy who used soulkiller on Johnny. But during the later escape attempt, she dropped the chip he was on. That's how Arasaka got his engram.

[@swoluigi3828]

Couldnt choose between this and the Erebus so i just got both with console commands 😭

[@styrfry]

Honestly the Canto should have been given to you by Songbird. I too used console commands to get this on Songbird's route. As fun as the Reed route is gameplay wise, screw the NUS and screw Myers. Also the Erebus is pretty overrated. It's a weird SMG that behaves like a shotgun with random bullet spread that makes it suck at anything beyond 10-15m range. As for the Canto itself... just 4 quickhack slots really limits what you can do.

[@tinycarrot718]

i think the quickhack slots in the canto are just what you need, anything more and it'd be stupid overpowered, you already have blackwall with it, you just need some quickhacks to manipulate your queue and RAM

[@ledocteur7701]

@@styrfry and only 9 ram, pretty hard limitations if you want to use some of the more powerful quickhacks.

[@styrfry]

@@ledocteur7701 agreed, it's very hard to beat the Rippler's 20 RAM at max tier unless you are specifically using something like the Raven for massive spread distance shenanigans. Also the extra benefits you get from the Rippler are A tier effects, especially the +40% damage when a combat quickhack is followed by a non-combat quickhack. This let's you use super cheap hacks like T2 Reboot Optics to give your big hitters an easy and cheap 40% damage buff.

Does anyone else think she is the same netrunner who soul killed Johnny for Saburo Arasaka during the memories V sees? She looks and speaks awfully similar to that netrunner. The one who's husband was killed in Arasaka Tower. Makes sense that this would start and end with her also.

[@tinycarrot718]

It does look like her, but I doubt it's the same person, she'd have to be around 80 considering the bomb was in 2023, also... Johnny' memory of what happened at saka tower is warped... He never met that woman in actuality, johnny died to smasher inside the tower and was soulkilled by spider Murphy, so the runner is most likely in johnny's imagination only

V picks up the blueprints from a cynosure facility to which they broke into and the data theyre collecting is combat data, they wanna know how the weapon performs

[@bibby659]

@tinycarrot718 While V does have the blueprints to finish making it, V doesn't, however, have the blueprints given to the other party for the other part needed to make it work. Was more so why they would give the one lady the blueprints for that. Not so much the blueprint for the weapon/implant itself.

[@TheOriginalPoon]

They want to break free of the black wall and take over the world, So Mi was supposed to be their human avatar. Blue Eyes and the NetWatch guy you meet in the GIM are also potentially AI avatars but inhabited by different AIs with their own agenda, what took over So Mi is evil Basically, Skynet took over her brain and body, and other AIs probably either want to follow it, or fight it, and are using V as a vessel.

[@Mirokuofnite]

With all the talking gear/Johnny maybe V is really just suffering from schizophrenia? The best ending for Corpo V is to assault Arasaka with Johnny. That way its basically a former employee has a schizo breakdown and goes postal.

[@unloyal4847]

A really good quickhack if you hybridize your runner build, I for one have 20int/20reflex/20tech/17cool/4body Its not going to be as op as say a Raven with suicide quickhack on and its annoying how you can only que 1 Blackwall per target but hey a talking cyberdeck is neat. Yeah sure it has only 4 slots but its all you really need honestly, I use Sonic/Ping/Cyberware Malfunction or reboot optics/Synapse Now although you think synapse is redundant and expensive but I mainly got it for quick Axotl refresh and increase overclock duration, that and I also use Active Camo. With this build you can control the engagement and even as a 4 body full int runner, it makes maxtach a joke, if stuff gets hairy just active camo and since your also using axotl you basically have infinite camo/bloodpump and overclock duration. Synapse is there for the quick dot kill for the refresh and on kill heal, blackwall when I wanna focus more on shooting with my smartweapons.
