Hope you all enjoy the spooky story of the weird psycho cyberclowns!

[@The11thSon.]

Perfectly timed for Hollows Eve!

[@CZ57-Avenger_]

OZOB is actually a character created by two very famous brazilian youtubers for their D&D Campaign, back in 2013. When CDProjektred reach youtubers to add them to the game, the group asked if OZOB could be added instead. The channel is called Jovem Nerd with 2.51M subs. OZOB even has a book about him named OZOB - Molotov Protocol.

[@jayl5032]

Kinda wished they included the bozos in 2077. Fighting a clown gang would have been hilarious.

[@idunnygiveafock7640]

I can't belive there is actually an insane clown posse in cyber pubk.

[@Mat14651]

​@The11thSon. To you reading this Jesus can help with whatever problems, hardships, and issues you have. Believe in him He came to save us from hell and eternal suffering, also turn from your sins repent which is changing your life to follow the way of God and not your way, your way will lead you into a pit of despair I know it, my way lead me in a pit straight to hell, but Jesus rescued me and he can rescue you. He can grant a peace and joy unfelt, and be your closest friend always there, This is the gospel Jesus Christ, son of God, died for our sins, was buried, and rose again on the third day. After he went to his tweleve disciples and many others before ascending into heaven eternally triumphant over all his enemies and making it so that there is now no condemnation for sin to all those who believe, but only everlasting joy. John 3:16

Night city attracts a lot of dangerous and very very weird gangs ( immediately looks at the Elvises and trekkies ).🤨🐱

Ozob bozo was probably my fav character even though he has only a few lines and time on screen

[@adamsmasher9769]

I always avoid his nose when i fight him just to keep him alive. I wish we could keep his goofy little clown van

[@mezarisage6055]

Bozos are a favourite antagonist of my cyberpunk 2020 GM and have led to many amusing stories, they also killed my first character who's last words were rather appropriately "I f**king hate clowns."

[@jacobhuff3748]

"It had to be effing clowns.",😮‍💨. Call them cliché but somehow that makes even scarier,😅.

[@ralph2766]

You actually found a group to play Cyberpunk 2020 with? That is an accomplishment

[@CZ57-Avenger_]

Fun Fact: OZOB is actually a character created by two very famous brazilian youtubers for their D&D Campaign, back in 2013. When CDProjektred reach youtubers to add them to the game, the group asked if OZOB could be added instead. The channel is called Jovem Nerd, has 2.51M subs and the original Podcast is from 2013.

[@Matt-md5yt]

a friend of mine mentioned that and I thought that was awesome

[@astradotcom]

That's such a sweet bit of background info, thank you for sharing!

[@egoinflado]

ozob was actually created in the 90's by Azaghal only. obviously he became quite famous after being used on their rpg campaign but it wasn't neither created by both of them or in 2013.

[@CZ57-Avenger_]

@@egoinflado Kind of... He only made the chart and never actually used it until they both created the backstory for the campaign. Not that it makes much difference at this point...

[@DJSLANKMAN]

thats cool af, had no idea

[@Bailer86]

a year or two ago, i was watching a friend of mine play Cyberpunk and V got into a sparing match against Ozob. V landed a killing blow causing the grenade to detonate and right when he did, my friend went into photo-mode as he likes to do and it couldn't have been a more perfect screen shot of the Ozob's head in mid-explosion and we laughed for so long. of course he reloaded the game because he didn't want to kill Ozob. it was great!

[@vincenthamilton7967]

It’s like the clown invasion of 2016 again

[@poromafia]

Ozob was the hardest fight I had in the entire "Beat a brat" saga due to his nose. One bad swing and his head went the way of the dodo.

[@bladedomega9702]

when I fought him three times, I kept punching the nose because that was the only part of him that actually took his health down, played the game over a fourth time in patch 2.0 and it surprised the heck out of me when his head blew up, I wonder if my game was bugged in the older version of the game 1.0 because in that version I was wailing on his nose and nothing happened.

[@VladimirDemetrovIlyushin]

19:10 You know, I wonder how many more people's graves will have memes written into them in the future. Kinda crazy to think about that.

[@nikolassantoro7466]

If I had a dollar for every time a set of clowns in a dark future trolled a little too hard, I’d have about three dollars, to my knowledge.

[@theguybehindyou4762]

Something, something, weird that it happened twice.

[@RockMuncher919]

Thrice [that's a real word don't question me]

[@Private-Potato]

Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened three times.

[@The11thSon.]

Thanks so much for keeping the preem Cyberpunk Lore coming, choom we all appreciate your work. I cannot get enough of it!

[@WiseFish]

Thank you guys for watching them! Love making them honestly

I said it once and ill say it again: Clown Civil War. Funniest shit ive ever heard.

[@WiseFish]

Clown Civil War: Prank Edition

[@joecrazy9896]

Man, wish the Bozos were an actual faction in 2077. Oh well, I'm sure someone is working on a mod for it.

[@joecrazy9896]

@@user-cv7kf1hb5z Hell yeah, what about poser gangs. Mods are an easy way to work around copyright material.

[@NeoIsrafil]

It's funny... The IRL clown epidemic of the early 21st century is in cyberpunk too! Life mirrors art mirrors life. Also gotta love the Juliards, no one can perform a murder scene with more feeling than a Juliard.... (IRL It's a famous acting and stage performance school... Basically the best)

[@klaykid117]

We had those clowns in 2016 four years before 2020

[@abirmawi2808]

@@klaykid117yeah so early 21st century mate

[@gernandthegreat8839]

I remember when I was a kid the reason I got scared of clown was because of that one episode of Billy and Mandy where grim made a demon clown to help Billy get over his fear of clowns

[@WiseFish]

Haha I know exactly what you’re talking about

That was the episode where Billy kept shouting "DESTROY US ALL."

Man...shame we only get Ozob Bozo

[@guyman8742]

Gangs like these are really scary when looking through the perspective of a civilian, but if they were in the video game, and seeing how my V handles everyone else, they would quickly become nothing but another corpse in a dark ally somewhere

[@etis398]

I love your videos, you're so good at storytelling. I'm French btw but the way you speak is comprehensible to me. You use nice wording like "vice versa" which also exists in my language 😂. Your take on the cyberpunk lore is so good. The guys who created and contributed to this universe were completely ahead of their time. Sea level rising, no more oil, corporations taking over the world. I feel like we live in a washed out cyberpunk dystopia: we have the corporations but no flying cars. Btw I highly recommend to anyone watching this video to have a look at another Cyberpunk-related video essay about ads in this universe: "Cyberpunk 2077 in a world full of ads" on this platform.

[@Nyghtking]

If they still existed it wouldn't exactly be a fun time for them, my character has a tendency to, upon seeing gang members of any gang hanging out, attack and murder them at random. So for the clowns they could be hanging out somewhere and some guy they don't know appears, chucks a grenade in their group and starts popping headshots for no other reason then they are in a gang. The meta reason I do this is because gangs are one of the few groups you can attack without getting police on you so they're a quick way to get XP, eddies, and street cred.

[@Swedishmafia101MemeCorporation]

Well, no one's said it yet so now I'm forced to... *RIP Bozo*

[@TherealTenmanI]

Rip in pieces Bozos. Cortex bombs tend to do that...

[@klaykid117]

Rest in power Bozos 😔✊ 🤡🤡🤡

[@odstkchamp7719]

Always have loved your Cyberpunk Lore videos! Love the channel itself! Keep up the amazing work 👏

[@speedyazi5029]

I swear Bozos are just future KZbin pranksters where ‘gone violent’ has turned into their favour.

[@TherealTenmanI]

Oh no. Thats perfect. I hate it. Thank you.

[@Cothfotmeoo]

Some wild stuff! I knew old Ozob was shown throughout the vid just from the back. 😄 Really enjoyed this video. Well played.

[@malcolmgray255]

I like how some of the art/cards btw our references to DC comics. With Big Top being the Joker & Jester being Harley Quinn

[@RandomManIncorperated]

Killer Clowns With Lazer Guns? Any Chance They Took Some Inspiration From The 1988 Movie Killer Clowns From Outer Space. Yes That Is A Real Movie

[@marseldagistani1989]

Batman must be working triple time on these fellas

[@watchmehope6560]

Given that NC does have an actual batman (or their own version; u find a note after finding a high end car in a cave) yes. Yes he is.

[@BuenoSama-xk7re]

Dude I love your lore videos. You're the VaatiVidya of cyberpunk

[@evanblack20]

A fight with a cyber spider-clown would’ve gone so hard

[@_Yep_Yep_]

Bummer these aren't prevalent in game.

[@homegrowntwinkie]

Ozob Bozo always reminded me of Adam Baldwin's character "Animal Mother" in Full Metal Jacket, but futuristic.

[@eurongreyjoy2]

Would be cool to see them in the sequel!

[@geoxev9423]

Thanks for another great video choom.😊 This was totally nova.😂

[@koboldlord]

The lack of Bozos, Ozob notwithstanding, in Cyberpunk 2077 saddens me greatly. They're my favorite gang and I was hoping they'd get added with DLC. Alas, this dream is not to be. :(

[@Jester4460]

No more dlc Next game

[@Saeiane777]

I remember a Cyberpunk youtube during the trailers when they saw some Scav masks they thought they'd be the Bozos.

[@negative6442]

The Inquisitors too!

[@deegomez8813]

Maybe we'll get them in the sequel now that its been confirmed,here's hoping.

[@whimsy0451]

More Cyberpunk lore from WiseFish, simply splendid.

[@banjojohn1489]

G'damn Juggalos... I assume they formed part of the inspiration for this gang 😂

[@joshholden9360]

Probably not. The Bozos were in the 2020 edition, from the late 80s/early 90s, around the time ICP was getting going.

[@thecybersmily4794]

yeah, bozo predates juggalos. When they came on the scene I swear I believe the Pondsmiths are predictors of the future.

[@ZanyHyena]

My fave cyberpunk lore master back at it again! Preeem

[@hexmachine8263]

Holy crap I was just trying to find more info on these guys👍🏻

[@zogkuma]

What if in the next game, the Bozos reemerge in place of the Maelstrom who are already falling apart from within no matter what V does to them? I'm pretty sure that Night City would miss having a gange of average cyberpsychos around than killer clown versions...

[@owenparris7490]

I never made the connection that Ozob was part of the Bozo Gang! So cool!

[@Xehanort10]

6:39 The dressing up as clowns kind of gave that away.

[@Mhaakify]

I did not expect them to have so much lore, this is great.

[@gunnerndb]

The bozos remind me of the clockwork orange gang a lot. Great film.

[@theguybehindyou4762]

Just think of the Halloween add-ons or mods we could get from this bit of lore.

[@HATECELL]

Doesn't matter if it is in a dystopian American city or the icy depths of Saturn's moons, never trust a clown in a dark sci-fi setting

[@kristindreca.8859]

The joker gang of the cyber punk universe🤣🤣

[@user-cl1tq5qx3o]

Unable to get dlc due to console limitations, but once i get it im gonna roleplay a bozo member and blast ICP while i do it, thanks for bringing my favorite boys to light, i savescummed the shit outta ozobs fight so he would live lmao EDIT: had zero idea about the split and big top, the hilaria event, the great clown hunt. You do a much better fucking job, pardon the language, and this is why you have my appreciation and subscription, you take lore seriously! If you havent, would you consider a playthrough of phantom liberty for us poors, or just sticking to lore? Dont wanna spoil myself but i cant even play the dlc with my console. Either way, please keep up the amazing work, you are legitamately a reason i love cyberpunk so much after i was dissapointed at launch

[@battlion507]

Jeez, just think, Terry McGinnis having to deal with the Jokerz like these bozos.

[@Bowen_Landry]

Listening to your lore from cyberpunk, really makes me want to play it. I will eventually. now that it's fixed.

To be fair, it was pretty funny.

[@tom-0ton408]

Anyone remember the killer clown a few years ago? What came of that?

The original Flomo Klown got 120 months but got out on probation after 60. I think she's still on probation rn. The trend as a whole mostly died

[@thesailormercury2]

the joker from the Batman would like them because he is a bozo if you think about it?

[@hunter5822]

YES!!!! God I wished the bozos were in cyberpunk 2077… I mean… they are, but no one’s SEEN them in decades. I’d love if the subsequent cyberpunk book that will eventually come out for the setting expands on their presence and shows they really are just around everywhere.

[@CZ57-Avenger_]

Search for OZOB - Protocolo Molotov. Its a book about him and his "original" lore. But I doubt you will find it in english though.

[@raptorprimal1077]

One thing I always wondered is if or what the British have if anything in Night City. Coz I notice all the gangs somewhat are obviously exaggerated versions of different cultures such as the flags gang being america, tiger claws having asian origins and valentinos being mexican inspired. So it makes me lowkey kinda feel bit left out as a British person there wasn't really a British gang or corpo in Night City then again in real life you wouldn't really see British gangs or corps in an American city. My guess and closest version is Maelstrom because they look a bit like British 80s punks but yeah. Maybe in the sequel a British gang or corporation could turn up in Night City. What interest would the future UK have in Night City? Honestly no idea. My guess is maybe like real life they see some buisness potential or something. But yeah I think CDPR really should incorporate a British gang or corpo in NC in the sequel because British Anarchist history imo is really interesting and I'd love to see it in CDPRs futuristic dystopia

[@phaylnx]

ok....we need a mod for Cyberpunk 2077 to add this gang.
