Why David Martinez is Special - Cyberpunk Edgerunners David Martinez was able to use the Sandevistan almost right away. In my opinion this made him very special.
David also got chromed up real fast, plus he had existing mental trauma. That plus what you mentioned really broke him, I think if Lucy stayed close, he probably could've held himself together longer. Maybe even gotten a couple hits on Adam.

You forget he was living with Lucy WHEN he got chromed up. The only reason he broke was when he stole the anti-gravity enhancements from Arasaka. The only reason he did that was because he didn’t live for himself and allowed himself to get played by Faraday. He didn’t need to take the Militech contact. It was foolish and dare I even say, idiotic. As for Adam Smasher, he was always going to tear David apart. There’s no if and or buts about that. That was a losing fight from the beginning.

This theory is actually supported indirectly by in-game lore; the cyberpsycho side mission for Regina Jones has V non-lethally incapacitate the cyberpsycho and then gather up evidence in the area to send back to Regina to figure out why they turned psycho and damn near ALL of the cases is a scenario where the psycho has been pushed into an unfortunate situation where their fears overwhelms their sense of rationality and they end up pushing people away before turning psycho.

He did jobs to earn money to go to the Moon because that was Lucy's dream.

Cute cynicism, but it is true. Power of social stability is a very strong “stat”. It gives people motivation, and allows them to recover from almost any level of trauma and mental damage if they have a good support system. Mental fortitude affects motivation, determination, willpower, perseverance, tenacity etc. Also, most superpowers in anime are emotionally triggered, and their magnitude is proportional to strength emotion as well. Love (and consequently hate) are the strongest emotions one can feel, which DO make an immense impact. That allows an individual overcome most powerful limiters of human body, such as fear of death or self-preservation. Obviously emotion is a coefficient, but it is a very signification factor nonetheless. You cannot have power regardless of emotion (no matter the coefficient, it being multiplied by 0 is still 0), if you did not have any to begin with. But if you have power AND emotion, it can lead to some ridiculous levels of strength. And vice versa having power and being a total mental mess can make you much much weaker (example: Plutonian being beaten down by another opponent, since his strength is self-actualized). Trying to discard such advantage is just nearsighted and ignorant. Look at IRL examples. Human is not a strong being, and yet some people literally bent the world order

Cyberpsychosis not being due to replacing parts but by endlessly tricking yourself out to the point your mind gets overwhelmed is my fav theory. You lose track of yourself and spiral without anything to pull you back. This dystopian hellscape leaves most with few to trust or help manage, so they rely on medication until it stops working. Someone like David does so well because he gets a sort of family to keep his mind in the right place. Losing that support except for Rebeccah started to make him too stressed out. Adam Smasher probably was someone with the right opportunity and mindset to continually upgrade himself. He just always thought of himself as a cold, merciless machine to the point he never had any humanity to lose.

Man, it’s great to hear you enjoyed it! Me I’ve been waiting for cyberpunk since the 2013 teaser. So I come from the disappointed camp. But the show gave it the life it needed, even though I know the game still is lacking. David and Co made me fall in love with Night City all over again

The sad part is the reason Lucy only grew detached because she wanted out of the Merc scene and David wanted to go deeper to become more like his mentor. Love is about being a team, David didnt want to listen to his team mate when she knew what he was doing wasn't good for him, so he pushed her away. David grew up poor so he conditioned himself into believing he was nothing without the money and Lucybwould leave him, when all she ever wanted was him.

I thought the whole point of the show was that he wasn’t special and he went crazy just like everyone else, yes he has a higher tolerance and stuff
@JaxxReyes
Жыл бұрын
I feel like his tolerance is basically what made him special. I figure that since he was still school-age when he got military-grade equipment and was able to use it eight times in one day, before almost getting hospitalized (and not really having any experience/tolerance with it) is what points to him being so special. Also, several characters-friend and foe-throughout the show express how surprised they are that he can handle everything he's acquired. I could be completely wrong, but I feel that's what makes him so special; being able to handle more than a kid (especially his size to begin with) is ever expected to manage.
