Hey
HopesGaming, I hope you've been well man.
Here's some questions for you:
1) MC's default Surname, "Messana" is that MC's mom's (Rina) maiden surname, or is that after his father's surname?
2) When the Isabel-Gracie reconciliation event "The Blizzard Princess" is completed by the player, shouldn't Gracie's character info be updated a little bit?
Even after that event, her Dislikes (at her character portrait section) still says "That one teacher who is boring and Isabel."
3) So far it's been all about the "Family" and the Mafia life (especially after MC's Omerta), but I was wondering, will we be seeing any police officers in the story who are on friendly terms with DeLucas (like Jimmy from John Wick films for example), or cops who take payments/bribes from DeLucas, or even cops who are working to take down the DeLucas and every single Mafia family out there in general?
If I'm not mistaken, I think I saw in Gracie's event (can't remember which one exactly. Perhaps it was Town time?), with Gracie mentioning Cordia and the Police Chief are in friendly terms or something.
4) (this question is split into 2 parts) In the Beach Prison event, when Luna says MC's act (to go outside the room so the girls can get away) was "A sacrifice just like in the movies." Gottardo replys saying "Some other Serpents and higher ups had their doubts, but not me!"
At this point, we get an indication of blue heart with "+ The Four Serpents"
So,
pt a) Will we get further opportunities to increase blue hearts with the Serpents in the future?
pt b) Unlike the girls, Antonio & Wilfred, the Serpents don't have portraits or Currents thoughts to serve as indicators. Any chance we can find out (in the future) how much we've progressed regarding MC's relationship with them all?
5) Will we ever find out why Gottardo calls "Serpent" as "Mr High-Five Guy"? I don't think he actually gave an explanation to MC why he calls "Serpent" as that in the beach prison event.
6) In exchange for getting from Wilfred Luna's knife (so MC can give it back to her), MC ended up owing "a favor for a favor" to Wilfred. Luna's reaction to MC telling her is that to owe something to Wilfred is a big deal.
So is this "favor for Wilfred" situation something that will be addressed in a future update? And without revealing spoilers, how influential will it be to the future storyline?
7) Cynthia (one of the Serpents, aka Queen C) hasn't appeared yet, but one notable sidequest (out of several where she's mentioned) that I found particularly interesting was that Gracie has been getting romance/love advice from her talking about "private stuff" (back in Gracie's "Friends!" quest with "grab the guy you like by the throat and kiss them, and eliminate their girlfriends by any means neccesary" advice).
Looking forward to Cynthia making her debut (hope it will be glorious, like Gottardo & "Serpent"'s introductions!), and wondering after Cynthia appears, will she give more crazy advice to Gracie?
Or was above Cynthia mention just made to set up further Gracie's character depth (in how she struggles with socially connecting with people), and there's nothing more to it?
