I would like to add on how the whole storyline with the gang doesn't make any senses right now. Especially when MC & Warren are on very friendly terms in the previous update REGARDLESS of which gang you've chosen. Imagine you're friend with a gang boss but can't even enter his club or his house.
Its very clear that BoN wants gentlemen as the default gang & the rest are more like decorations. Honestly he should've just stick the story to gentlemen & in MNL2, MC can freely make his own choice to stay or split with Warren.
Hmmm... Well, in general, in the case of a gang of gentlemen, this is not a new story for dev, but a well-forgotten old one. I just want to remind you that in the original MNL, BoN's main gang was the hornet gang. Just a gang of hornets was rolling straight down the main road of the main story of the plot, and the friendship of MС with Nesrot was put at the forefront. After a Beggar turned Nesrot kind of hipster for some reason, he seems to have forgotten that he attached such importance to the hornet gang in the previous game. In general, I have a feeling that because of the large volume of events, he simply forgets about some things. Well, for example, gang leaders pay tribute to the ingenuity and intelligence of the MC, Warren is generally excited about his buddy's future potential. And what does a smart youngster with huge potential do when he needs a third member of the team? He puts in this place his friend, slacker and drug addict Markus, who also tries to blackmail him with incest with his sister
Isn't it true that we have great potential here! By the way, it is possible that dev does this intentionally to emphasize the irony of some game highlights.
P.S.: I looked at the old screen of Dragunov's gang at my leisure. Here we see two girls named Olga and Olenka. But the fact is that in Russian it is the same name. Just Olenka is a diminutive of Olga. Probably BoN just didn't know about it, I don't think he wanted to emphasize anything with this. By the way, Russians usually do not call their women Ivanna. There is an Orthodox (Church Slavonic) form of the name - Johnna. Nowadays, only the male name Ivan is mainly used.
Oh, by the way. It's funny, but in the same screen the last girl on the right has a male name: Kesha. Kesha is a diminutive of the male name Innokenty. Where the hell does he even dig up names like that?
