Oh come on bro, I understand where you're coming from, but that's not a very good example. Why would Riggs call for backup when he himself is a lethal weapon and sgt. Murtaugh has his back?I’ve got a couple hundred people on the “playtester” tier, and not one of them had an issue with that “bug,” so I’m going to guess it’s a matter of someone using UnRen and then getting mad when they fucked with the script, causing it to break.
I’m not a great coder, but even I can’t fuck up a simple menu option linked to a True/False variable.
As for MC needing a bodyguard.. Shit, why didn’t Lethal Weapon just end with Mel Gibson calling in the SWAT team to shoot Gary Busey? Is he stupid??
This completely puts aside that this very problem of MC worrying about his safety is highlighted in the story. We see him reflect on his bad luck and his need to be more prepared, and then he.. Takes steps to do it.
You know, progressing the story in a natural way, and not just opening the story with Agent 47 constantly following him.
But your MC isn't even a former marine or navy seal or a police officer like most die hard MCs these days. Still, it seems that he is conceived as a smart guy, so the idea that such a pile of money, demonstrated publicly, will attract the attention of not only golddigers but also banal robbers should have visited him naturally.
However, I didn’t get to the point where he reflects upon finding himself in such a situation for the first time and takes steps, so maybe dude isn't so careless in the future.
