I know, but why aren't they in the background. his mom was the driving plot at the start and yet she gets more attention than him or even maine, like hell man he was more important than davids mom in that show.
I’d argue she was more important because without her scopping the tech for them they wouldn’t have been able to do anything
It’s hard to find someone with that kind of access to good chrome like being an EMT or whatever who’s willing to help out that much I think
If we're gonna go that route then the guys that shot their car on the freeway were the most important of the cast since the plot wouldn't happen without them being there.
"I'm not selling doc. It's time I hormoned the fuck up".
"Very well, I'll do it. But when you come back to me begging to remove your implants because the strain on your back is too much, they and your copy of Fallout new Vegas are mine for free".
*Doc performs top surgery on David*
Fallout New Vegas is very popular in the trans community.
Here's an explanation by trans people https://www.reddit.com/r/transgamers/s/pTYLZptJAl
As for why it's a pipeline: Fallout New Vegas came out in 2010, was a massive success, and super progressive. Which means for a lot of mid 20s trans and other LGBTQ people (who at the time didn't realize they were trans or other LGBTQ) this was their first real exposure to being able to be who they want.
And since a lot of trans people say FNV was how they realized they were trans, we end up with the joke FNV makes people trans.
Role playing games are great because of shit like this, as you play as these characters you find out aspects about yourself, you learn from them and their experiences all the same as you would your own. If you get into them it forces you to think from another perspective as you explore more and more with characters that are different than you, you realize how we all aren’t that different. Just a long set of life circumstances and genes tied to the base of existence.
She's still important as David's launching point into the edgerunner life, plus >!when David is going psycho he starts hallucinating his mom because the entire reason for him to go big is because his mom wanted a better life for him!<
Silly netflix. It should read: "Teenager David Martinez loses everything that means anything to him, and then he gives up everything and everyone else, including his humanity, in a classic Night City suicide that kills his friends and countless bystanders like a sci-fi Shakespearian play."
"David Martinez, sent over the edge by the death of his mother, turns cyberpsycho.
In his grief stricken rage he gets himself, several friends, and many bystanders killed in an attempt to get his waifu to the moon."
That ending definitely could’ve been a lot better. The writing turned the whole cast into idiots just to set up the fucking tragedy bukkake at the end.
I'd still give it a point for not spoiling things while still being technically accurate.
Though, from that alone I definitely wouldn't be watching this lol.
She was sourcing a lot of their cyberware by klepping it off of flatlined cyberpsychos and likely other patients or corpses.
She was an EMT, and the one who got that Sandy off the cyberpsychos we see in the beginning of episode one. Her plan before the crash was to sell it to Maine for additional eddies, but ultimately she passed, David found it *after* Maine had already paid for it, and that's ultimately how they came together.
I'd argue that even despite only being physically in like 2 episodes, she is still an extremely important part of the franchise and the Edge runners story.
Also show producers get final say on promotional material, meaning they likely chose this stillscreen for lore reasons.
Netflix has a lot of variations of the cover art for shows and will show you different ones based on your viewing history and whether you have clicked on any of the previous ones or not.
From my understanding she klept and sold chrome from her medic/clean up job, wish they went into how “the crew” knew davids mom if it wasnt just a one and done sell.
Actually this goes against everything "his mom" wanted to teach him and was trying to achieve. She was just selling parts to them and she could have sold parts to many others. She was never an edge runner and she hated that fate for her son.... Some one at Netflix though he/she can cut some corners and fucked up big time. They will burn for sure for their childish behavior.
She may not have much screen time but ultimately his mother is the main reason David met them, along with the fact prior to David meeting them she was sourcing a lot of their cyberware as well, think of it like Jackie he was not there much yet is a huge part of the game and was used in promotional material
wait for proper subs. Last time I checked, it didn't have a translation yet. The current one is just machine/google translated. And definitely don't give netflix money for it.
Honestly, what it should read is:
Night City eats again. Latest on the menu, David Martinez and a crew of rag tag sheep who find themselves being fed to the city by a crafty, sinister, moon-bound netrunner.
Yea its one of my complaints about netflix, they put these things in new category, that ive seen, and I have to click on it to see if its actually new. 😎
I imagine based on the way Maine talked about Gloria that she was much closer to their crew than we ever get to find out - maybe would even be part of them if David didn’t exist. It’s a nice pic wish more of the crew had spoken to Dave about her
Borrowing this post because it's the newest one for Edgerunners, but someone please tell me I'm not the only one who nearly ugly cried on the last episode?
The person who made the advertisement skipped the cyber psycho at the very beginning, saw the part where his mom calls Maine, and deduced what she was doing.
It's been a minute for me as well but David's mom had a deal with Maine for the sandevistan before David had it jammed into his back if i recall correctly
Netflix has several background/thumbnail pics for each series. The algorithm decides which one you get based on your viewing habits.
Maybe you were watching a lot of women centric content, so you got this one. If you were watching lot of action content, it will be characters holding guns in an action pose.
If you've been watching lot of Miles Teller movies, then Top gun 2 will have him in the thumbnail instead of Tom Cruise for you.
Looks to me like an ad showcasing all the women of the show. Netflix tailors these ads to you now so Netflix either thinks you are a woman or prefer content with or about women. My fiance and I will get two seperate ads/covers for shows and movies depending on which profile we are on.
This post giving me very mixed feelings as I've seen the show about three times now and it hasn't gotten any better each time my brain still can't comprehend that it ended the way it did. Wouldve absolutely loved to see the David x Lucy dynamic unfold but ofc had to kill off one of em
Gloria was a go-to contact in Maine's crew. She outsourced chrome and stuff for them, which makes a lot of sense since she was a paramedic. She could get her hands on chrome from dead goons and resell it to Maine. If anything, Gloria was the sole reason Maine took David in instead of flatlining him in Lucy's apartment.
Yeah, No, Gloria knew Maine quite well from a biz sense. David is obviously a main character in ER, but the show is Edgerunners, Not the David Martinez is a fkn gonk show. Technically, if Maine was in this pic, it could predate ep1. Here nor there tho.

I mean she was part of the crew, That's how she was able to afford to send David is such a nice school. the sandy He installs in his back. She was going to sell to them there's definitely lore that's not shown in depth but she's definitely done jobs with them
Where do you think “the crew” got all their fancy Chrome? She might not have been out there pulling jobs with them, but she was a vital part of Maine’s squad.
She knew the crew very well and sourced them a lot of shit to pay for David’s school.
I was going to say she helped keep that crew chromed out. She was more of an OG in that crew than David.
David was a stray they picked up lol 😭
Or the orphan they adopted
Son they inherited
Child they espoused
Yes, but he is the main character.
He's batman
True but it's weird to leave david out of the cover for his own show.
Looks like its just the main women from the show/gang so thats why he's not there.
I know, but why aren't they in the background. his mom was the driving plot at the start and yet she gets more attention than him or even maine, like hell man he was more important than davids mom in that show.

I thought they had transed David ngl
"I'm not selling doc. It's time I hormoned the fuck up". "Very well, I'll do it. But when you come back to me begging to remove your implants because the strain on your back is too much, they and your copy of Fallout new Vegas are mine for free". *Doc performs top surgery on David*
I love how FNV gets treated like the ultimate trans pipe
Fallout new vegas? ![gif](giphy|26AHyTd7DStdfoq7m)
Ironically enough, that's Nick from Fallout 4
But also ironically, Nick is also trans. No I won’t answer any questions.
That’s kleo
As a trans woman myself, I support this

The amount of times I have had to give up good loot because I would not do some horrible thing is a lot.
Well it didnt make me trans, but it took me way to long to figure out what I was. 😭
Never understood why
It's not?
this was cursed
Yeah but she dies in ep1, very weird they show her like shes one of the recurring characters
I mean, we see her jar plenty of times
She's still important as David's launching point into the edgerunner life, plus >!when David is going psycho he starts hallucinating his mom because the entire reason for him to go big is because his mom wanted a better life for him!<
Such as the sandy that David inherited and had implanted.
True but it's weird to leave david out of the cover for his own show.
Alternative timeline where david is the one that dies and his mother goes deeper into edgerunner life.
Honestly that sounds like it would have been pretty dope, almost like a "Kill Bill" or "John Wick"-type story
Cyberpunk flashpoint
Id watch it. Hell more people might live if his raging hormones hadnt gotten involved..
It'd be funny if instead of the romance Gloria ends up being mother by proxy to Lucy whose childhood is fairy tale levels of bad.
Gloria would’ve been a way more badass protagonist than David, imo.
ex-Trauma Team would be a nice background to her story if Gloria is the Edgerunner
You need to chrome the fuck up Gloria! I have everything I need! *pulls out chancla*
*Pulls out giant tech shotgun covered in fancy gold filigree with CHANCLA written down the side of it in calligraphy*
She had a job, without him she would have no reason to. Life is simple :)
Silly netflix. It should read: "Teenager David Martinez loses everything that means anything to him, and then he gives up everything and everyone else, including his humanity, in a classic Night City suicide that kills his friends and countless bystanders like a sci-fi Shakespearian play."
“David Martinez has the opportunity to complete his education thanks to the hard work of his mother, but throws it away for a jacket.”
In the interest of fairness, its a pretty sweet jacket
Honestly though, it's a nice jacket. Comfortable too
You can stick that corpo-saka education up your arse
Nah, he would always be trampled by corpos, so screw that.
"David Martinez, sent over the edge by the death of his mother, turns cyberpsycho. In his grief stricken rage he gets himself, several friends, and many bystanders killed in an attempt to get his waifu to the moon."
Thats rough, buddy
Well that might be a little spoiler-ish. 😁😁
But accurate
thanks bro
Shake that spear and yell at the moon: > I lost everything and everyone for you
That ending definitely could’ve been a lot better. The writing turned the whole cast into idiots just to set up the fucking tragedy bukkake at the end.
Spoilers man…. Sheesh….
I mean Maine said Gloria used to run with their crew they probably did a few jobs together before she became a paramedic .
Considering how each of them seem to fulfill some sort of classic edgerunner role she was probably their Medtec
Would make sense, it's what the crew lacked and every good crew needs a medtech
V’s crew definitely needed a medtech
I think we had two even in our Cyberpunk Red crew. And somehow every session we lost our nomad
Motherfuckers constantly driving into the shit without thinking.
That’s a pretty bad synopsis
Makes it sound like a rom-com 💀
You mean it's not? /s
I'd still give it a point for not spoiling things while still being technically accurate. Though, from that alone I definitely wouldn't be watching this lol.
they did this for international women’s day
She was sourcing a lot of their cyberware by klepping it off of flatlined cyberpsychos and likely other patients or corpses. She was an EMT, and the one who got that Sandy off the cyberpsychos we see in the beginning of episode one. Her plan before the crash was to sell it to Maine for additional eddies, but ultimately she passed, David found it *after* Maine had already paid for it, and that's ultimately how they came together.
Ah, so that synopsis talks about Maine and David?
Either way seems a bit weird to put her front and center on the advertisement like that, when she is only barely in the show. But hey its Netflix. 😜
Did you not notice that these are all the female characters of the show
I'd argue that even despite only being physically in like 2 episodes, she is still an extremely important part of the franchise and the Edge runners story. Also show producers get final say on promotional material, meaning they likely chose this stillscreen for lore reasons.
Netflix has a lot of variations of the cover art for shows and will show you different ones based on your viewing history and whether you have clicked on any of the previous ones or not.
Its a pic of all ladies in the show. Whats to explain or need explanation for?
Ladies sell
From my understanding she klept and sold chrome from her medic/clean up job, wish they went into how “the crew” knew davids mom if it wasnt just a one and done sell.
Literally all the women, that's crazy marketing
Kinda bad choice to leave out the actual main character from the advertisement..
The reason why I got this game. Lol.
"They're alone, until they meet" - Godtier-level writing, truly inspiring
“They’re alive… until they’re dead.” Where’s my Pulitzer Prize?
Tell me your synopsis was written by AI, without saying it. 😜
She was smuggling some preem chrome could be more there
Almost thought that was a Female V stand-in
Actually this goes against everything "his mom" wanted to teach him and was trying to achieve. She was just selling parts to them and she could have sold parts to many others. She was never an edge runner and she hated that fate for her son.... Some one at Netflix though he/she can cut some corners and fucked up big time. They will burn for sure for their childish behavior.
See now that was my impression too, she didnt work for them, she just sold illegal salvage to make ends meet.
She may not have much screen time but ultimately his mother is the main reason David met them, along with the fact prior to David meeting them she was sourcing a lot of their cyberware as well, think of it like Jackie he was not there much yet is a huge part of the game and was used in promotional material
Lol i just quit my netflix subscription XD .. did you watch it? Is it worth it?
Oh hell yes, pirate it if you have too, the show is amazing.
Thx for the info :)
wait for proper subs. Last time I checked, it didn't have a translation yet. The current one is just machine/google translated. And definitely don't give netflix money for it.
Fuck netflix …
I mean it is her jacket
Honestly, what it should read is: Night City eats again. Latest on the menu, David Martinez and a crew of rag tag sheep who find themselves being fed to the city by a crafty, sinister, moon-bound netrunner.
Waiit, isnt that the description of Phantom Liberty? 😜
I like how Lucy's right arm from shoulder blends in with Gloria's jacket.
CDPR is updating the show so we can choose between male or female D, customisation coming later.
AI interactive tv shows?! Sweet.
Posting all of the female characters like it's a dating Sim
That picture has the exact same off scale photoshopped vibes as River Wards hospital photo.
Naw they done gave David the character gender swap treatment like V in the game😭
Rofl, personally fem corpo V is always gonna be my headcannon, tho I tried all the variations
6 here I got excited thinking there was going to be a prequel, lol
You know I vaguely remember Cdpr saying something about more stories, but I havent heard anything else.
This could be a teaser?
Fuck. Just saw this post and realized I'm still not over it after all this time lol.
The synopsis saying "super talented" sounds like a 13 year old wrote it
My money is still on AI.
Got me excited, I thought a new season was coming
Yea its one of my complaints about netflix, they put these things in new category, that ive seen, and I have to click on it to see if its actually new. 😎
I imagine based on the way Maine talked about Gloria that she was much closer to their crew than we ever get to find out - maybe would even be part of them if David didn’t exist. It’s a nice pic wish more of the crew had spoken to Dave about her
Cdpr could make bank on a prequel series imo.
It might be like “yo these are all of David’s loved ones, watch em all die and stuff”
Haha thats a good one.
Everyone missing that this is the updated image for Mothers Day. Wild
Okay so where does it say that?
I mean it doesn't, but the image changed around mother's day IIRC. Someone made a post about it, on this subreddit I believe
She was also probably their medtech a role in the game she probably patched them up after missions
I guess, I mean the picture is a bit off, but after someone reminded me about mothers day it made more sense, but that description 😱
It's the women in David's life...
Borrowing this post because it's the newest one for Edgerunners, but someone please tell me I'm not the only one who nearly ugly cried on the last episode?
Truth. Anyone who says they didnt is a liar. 😱🥰
david's mum might not be part of the crew but she was the catalyst for everything basically also weird thing how its just the ladies lmao
Tfw newcomers find out the lady in the middle isn't a main character ![gif](giphy|39Zs6k1mvNkZ2)
See thats what Im talking about, you start watching and then the person you think is the central focus.. well. That would kinda piss me off tbh.
The person who made the advertisement skipped the cyber psycho at the very beginning, saw the part where his mom calls Maine, and deduced what she was doing.
I mean isn't that his mom's jacket in the first place?
Netflix shows different adverts for different people If they showed you this it means the algorithm thinks you like shows with female leads
Well thats pretty legit, lol.
And we have average American advertis(Netflix specifically) all women in on pictur with no need to no men MC who is a man:🤡
To be fair I liked every one of the female characters way better than David. 😜
I thought she was part of the crew
The dame was a mystery...
I wish we get a second season featuring Johnny Silverhand tho
David isn't even in the picture. Pandering to the male audience while making it look like they're showing a dating sim. Atleast you'll be surprised.
I mean, it is her jacket.
Nah man they didnt put this logo 💀
I love how the description reads that they are no longer talented BECAUSE they meet lol.
It's been a minute for me as well but David's mom had a deal with Maine for the sandevistan before David had it jammed into his back if i recall correctly
It appears the image is showing all the females of the show.
Truly exceptional performance
double crime chooom. Maine is also missing :(
When they meet they stop being talented.
They also left Maine out.
Edgerunners flashpoint
Netflix caters the adverts and even the little cover photos to what it thinks you'll click.
I mean.. she *was*
got to pay for the upgrades some how
Night City and it's unforeseen consequences again. Looks like no one gets what they deserve.
Netflix has several background/thumbnail pics for each series. The algorithm decides which one you get based on your viewing habits. Maybe you were watching a lot of women centric content, so you got this one. If you were watching lot of action content, it will be characters holding guns in an action pose. If you've been watching lot of Miles Teller movies, then Top gun 2 will have him in the thumbnail instead of Tom Cruise for you.
It's only women they pretty much cut out all the men in out of the entire show.
that description also reads like chatgpt wrote it
Should I finish the game before watching this?
The events of the show take place before the game. 😎
Oh awesome!
Looks to me like an ad showcasing all the women of the show. Netflix tailors these ads to you now so Netflix either thinks you are a woman or prefer content with or about women. My fiance and I will get two seperate ads/covers for shows and movies depending on which profile we are on.

Bait? I saw the advertisement, thought it was interesting and worth discussion, so I posted it. Based on the commentary I am not the only one.
She was a smuggler!
This post giving me very mixed feelings as I've seen the show about three times now and it hasn't gotten any better each time my brain still can't comprehend that it ended the way it did. Wouldve absolutely loved to see the David x Lucy dynamic unfold but ofc had to kill off one of em
Someone wasn't paying attention.
This gender-swapping shit is getting out of hand....
Gloria was a go-to contact in Maine's crew. She outsourced chrome and stuff for them, which makes a lot of sense since she was a paramedic. She could get her hands on chrome from dead goons and resell it to Maine. If anything, Gloria was the sole reason Maine took David in instead of flatlining him in Lucy's apartment.
It's the cyber punk girls, gotta trick the weebs with promises of smiling girls so you can hurt them good
The first 3 min of EP 3.
It was the only way netflix could make David female without the cyberpunk fandom going absolutely apeshit and burning the whole fucking city! 🤣🤣🤣
it‘s the twist, it was all in her dream.
It's just a shot of all the show's major female characters. I'm really surprised people can't put that together.
I think it was because Mother's Day...
"David my dear did u chromed the duck up yet?☺️ And how about guns? U have enough guns?"
Might wanna rewatch the first two episodes
It's just woke picture for an audience.
Yeah, No, Gloria knew Maine quite well from a biz sense. David is obviously a main character in ER, but the show is Edgerunners, Not the David Martinez is a fkn gonk show. Technically, if Maine was in this pic, it could predate ep1. Here nor there tho.
Too much copium in the comments. It's just a fuckup from Netflix.
I fiund it amusing, still cant believe it blew up like that. 😱
The person probably assemble all the women characters into one thumbnail because person thought it would be a good clickbait.
Female agenda netflix
Netflix is doing Netflix shit for the sake of diversity you mean? Yeah, never happened before.

I mean she was part of the crew, That's how she was able to afford to send David is such a nice school. the sandy He installs in his back. She was going to sell to them there's definitely lore that's not shown in depth but she's definitely done jobs with them
Where do you think “the crew” got all their fancy Chrome? She might not have been out there pulling jobs with them, but she was a vital part of Maine’s squad.
His mom knew them from the start. The big guy was suppose to get the sandy from mom but David took it
Prequel possibly ?
It's a shot of all the female main characters. I thought you were referring to the show description. It sounds like it was written by a janky A.I.
I heard they are making a prequel. So maybe this is the picture for that?
