I call that bull sh_t ... ok He can fight hand to hand but what is he going to do If Minions used guns just like that scene when you leave Sadies you get attacked on your way back and you end up in the hospital... I mean if he had his gun would he be able to shoot and drive ... most likely not if he didn't have the training... most people can shoot if they stop to aim, but if you are driving a bike you may not shoot good inless it up close. driving and shooting req skill not your normal person or even a ex merc wouldn't know... most merc know how to shoot some can hit moving targets. but driving and shooting are different... some skill is required to do both...Dude, have you paid any attention? Ryker led spec ops in the military and did several tours.. who should train him? He mopped the floor with 2 minions the first evening at the fox hole. why are you so fixiated to train him? why do you want to waste time (dev programminig and us playing) with unnessesar stuff?
oh and by the way I know that if the dev would put some kind of stats or skill system it would take longer on the updates I am sorry about that but if the dev did add the stats or skill thing then there is more replay value ... I mean take final fantasy x most players beat the game without maxing out there stats. other players beat the game with maxed out stats. its all about how you play do you want to short cut just to beat a game or do you want to be someone that beats the game with maxed out stats or skills...
I also know this is a vn game and not a rpg .. final fantasy x was just a ref ... that said the way this game is broken down between days and nights ... it's not bad but maybe change it like some of the other games that have something like 4 time periods ... that way maybe the mc could do more things ... I mean I recall a scene where the mc is doing work at the penthouse and something like 10 mins later its night and the mc at the bar. I mean some work takes long to finish. I get that but to use a whole day thats not right...I also recall a scene the land lady has a leak that job should take just a few hours but no it took alot longer...
