  1. This finally gave me a good explanation why they chose Silverhand of all people to be slotted into the Relic 2.0. Him being one of the least valuable constructs on file makes him the perfect candidate for experimental tech that could fail and wipe or corrupt the data on it. Thanks for another deep dive!

  2. Hey chooms! I hope you all enjoyed the video and learned some new information. I apologize for the long gaps between content, life has been busy but I try to make the time to create when I can. So usually the process is more like chipping away at a video. So I hope that hasn't noticeably effected the quality. Thanks for the support at always and I look forward to seeing what you all have to say!

  3. One of the most overlooked but important events in Arasaka's and general Cyberpunk timeline is Spider Murphy's elimination of Kai Arasaka. By eliminating the heir groomed to hold power on Saburo's behalf, Saburo was forced to try and bring his rebel son Yorinobu into the fold. We play through the disastrous fallout of this 54 years further down the timeline in the game. If however, Kai had survived he instead of Yorinobu would be in charge and the Relic program would have gone off without a hitch ensuring the immortal reign of Saburo Arasaka.

    Add to this Spider Murphy being the one to free AI Alt into the Net and surviving all this to retire peacefully. Spider is the most badass character in the IP.
