I wonder how much power Cole had at the peak of his fight against Mc/Deryl, HERO sends lvl 4 agents to hunt down A class monsters right ?
If Mc and his team won against Cole maybe they have what it takes to beat Asura, even if just barely, it would be a hell of a final boss for their time at the monster world.
Maybe 2000ish? Evolving generally triples the player's power from where it was, and Cole had around 1000 MP/ME prior to evolving, but the gap between 3-4 is stated to not be as large as 2-3 or 4-5.

I'm playing with the multi-mod for a relaxed playthrough and was wondering if it's good to gain corruption or not. Like, does it make you more evil or is it a flavor thing? I don't mind minor spoilers.

sufficiently high corruption will allow the MC to partially understand Monster Language and allows access to unique Dead Ends that are quite Lore-Rich. It will also prevent you from doing certain emotional actions with the people close to him. Just keep yourself somewhere between 25 and 40 corruption if you dont want to get locked out of any content.

At the moment, Corruption allows you to access secret dead ends and understand monsters' speech to some extent (25+ needed). As of last update, high levels of Corruption (40+) also prevents MC from showing affection in certain scenes (specifically in this last 2 updates, stops you from hugging mom and Amber) and make certain characters lose affection points (right now, Jake is the only one you lose point as far as i remember, if you have 6+ corruption BEFORE prison).

Ok, cool. is there a certain level of corruption where monsters become understandable or is it a situation where they become more intelligible as corruption increases? I wouldn't mind gaining some corruption to understand them, but I won't if it needs to be raised to a level that makes my guy more cold to others.

Like Squall said, minimum required is 25. You can raise it higher if you like, but if you dont want to be barred from hugging amber, keep it below 40.

There's specific scenes, not all monsters are fully understandable now. If I remember correctly, you have some scenes with Mommy 4th, the Fox and some smaller cases. 20-25 is where we start to understand them, so keep it in mind to stay in the 30ish threshold (right now, 40 is the hard cap to not be blocked for content, 41 and above starts blocking you from huging).

Alright, looks like I'll become a bit corrupt then. Thanks for the quick and detailed information.

Hey everyone, I've got another question. If I cheat to add money and stats will I fuck up anything in the game? I just wanna buy all the shopkeep stuff and be able to pass all of the stat checks like

I finished the story so far and what a great game/story. It gripped me so hard I had trouble concentrating on doing anything else (not that my ADHD helped but hey).
I believe it would easily stand on its own as a great super story even if the sexual aspects of it were cut out. Prototype is one of my favorite games as well so I'm biased but I think it's one of the best ones out there.
The only thing that bothered me was the later fights, like MC vs Monster Deryl and MC & Deryl vs Cole. They trade so many punches it begins to lose impact...

Nah all of sin are on the tentacle to brain list. I hate how the twins got turned into superhumans because of them, I consider it bad storytelling, and in my opinion it ruined their character.

But regardless those fuckers laid hands on them, they die, the sooner the better.

Of course when we had the chance to kill Cole, he instantly got plot-armor, as I predicted. Because for the sake of more pointless melodrama in the future, he must live.
Finally someone with the same point of view as me. I also didn't like the fact that the twins became superhumans because of Sin, actually, they became superhumans in general. I've been disliking this idea of all the characters in MC's friendship circle becoming superhumans for a while now. I try to ignore some parts like this and enjoy others. The twins were my favorite character after MC, and the fact that they became superhumans kind of lost their shine. Especially now that they are both one and the same, and they have to keep switching bodies like Ren and Run from the anime To Love Ru!

Another disappointing part was this plot armor that Cole received in the confrontation against MC. Damn, I expected and hyped MC to skin Cole alive, but all I got was a bucket of cold water when he evolved in the middle of the fight. By the way, this scene of Cole evolving in the middle of the fight reminded me of the MC vs Klaus fight in the Mafia arc, when Klaus injects a drug and becomes a monster, beating up MC and Alice.

Anyway, what belongs to Cole is saved, I hope that one day MC can devour his brain too, like I did with Jake in my corrupt route!

Last (and only) Asura our MC beat was already half dead, blinded and he was heavily assisted by Nico. Better hope he doesn't run into one by accident because with a min power of 3200, this will be a short fight unless we get some fantastic display of teamwork from the crew.
Not only that but according to the BIO; all of the Asura have been branded by Indra to restrict their powers to one use a day. The Asura that the MC fought must have already used its power for the day and was limited to physical attacks afterwards.

I'm curious, what does everyone plan to do with Jake? On one hand I can understand how Ella corrupted him so easily and that what he did to Mia was an accident. On the other hand he refuses to do anything by himself, chose to try and brainwash Mia, implant the suicide suggestion in Deryl, and he's far too easy to manipulate.

Don't forget so many innocent people he mind fucked and soldiers who basically got killed because of him.Imo only when I am playing a full good hero mc I spare him as it's a second chance but I will kill him if he does that shit again now for more ruthless mc playthroughs he dies.
