This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

In the same way pure hearted good guys can be a fresh of breath air after dozens of anti heroes, sometimes straight forward evil people can be relieving after so many "the ends justify the means" people.

Is he even evil? Hes just a crazy strong brutal bodyguard, I don't know that him working for arasaka automatically makes him evil.

Adam Smasher is actually evil, yes. Anon is ignoring large swaths of backstory for this greentext, lol.

I don't think ive run into much of his back story in my playthrough to be fair.

[–] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

It's been a hot minute since I played it, but I remember a lot of his backstory is hidden behind player choices. You may have to play through multiple times or just look up spoilers to get the whole thing.

Yeah thats fair. He reminds me a lot of the mountain from game of thrones, especially the fight scene with the viper. I'm not sure if CDPR meant to draw comparisons to that but it jumped out at me immediately.

Doubtful as Adam Smasher is an OG NPC from back in the CP2020 days.

But I agree with your comparison. Big silent type bastard who's just really enjoy his job of being a big bastard.
