    It’s Cyberpunk 2077 lingo. Eddies are Eurodollars, the currency in the game. A gonk is an idiot and with strong cyberware, someone might just dismember people.

      Cyberpunk 2077 meme. Solo is an independent mercenary hired to do dangerous jobs. Gonk is slang for punk. Eddies is slang for money. Strong solos with lots of cyberware could easily rip a normal person in half.

        Solo is not an independant mercenary. Solo is a beefy heavy gun type.

        It comes the tabletop rpg. If you make a combat character who’s powerful enough to solo the enemy with minimal help from the rest of the party, that’s a solo. Rocket launchers, HMG, weapons with kinda broken rules, heaps of hit points, etc.

    If anyone is into edgerunners, I’d at the very least watch someone play through the wuthering waves and edgerunners collaboration, if not actually play it yourself (if you can look past the gacha, wuthering waves is a really really good game lol)

    It could literally be like episode 11 of edgerunners… It was really good. I didn’t cry, you’re crying!!! :P

    The video game Cyberpunk 2077 is an excellent Cyberpunk TV series. The only problem is, you need to play a shit video game between episodes. The DLC is better about this, but the gameplay of the original campaign is trash. lol. I only carried on because of the excellent writing.
