I guessed that L&P might have another scene of "Sophia seeing Dylan as a man," as with the hobos in the need to 'strengthen their relationship' ......again & extrapolated from there. I can't see the thugs return as being useful for anything else, unless Patricia organises a horseback man-hunt, while wearing a red jacket & black jockey cap. [It happened as recently as this century, in England but without the guns].
It's time for some radical changes, if this is ever going to end before 2050. My problem with that is that the Dev always makes radical changes I don't like.
I didn't even think about whether, needed or didn't need subway thugs.
The reason I made that inference is because I read in the public schedule that Dylan would be utilizing his martial arts skills, and Patricia would be providing compensation to Dylan.
I've never been even close to this scenario, so I can't deduce if they are needed or not.
And aside from the fact that I like Sam's story, what I've written so far has nothing to do with my tastes.
I just said it for the speed, efficiency and consistency of game development.
The subway thug character is also my favorite story.
But I don't think LP should prolong this story.
He already can't handle this game and he has admitted this too.
He must not extend the story further and he must begin reaping the seeds he has so far sown.
