babutler Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 If this already exists as a whole or in part, please point me in the right direction... Is there a mod out yet that unlocks and activates the city before you do the Act 1 events? I've been on a new playthrough and found that one of my mods (probably for no invisible barriers or something similar) allows me to drive out of Watson somewhere north of Kabuki. But the city is basically dead. No gigs (or fixers)... No NCPD scanner hustles... No cyberpsychos... Nothing. No vendors even! That doesn't make sense to me. The city is an organism all on its own... It doesn't need V. Shouldn't players have an opportunity to explore the whole city and build up V's street cred, garage, arsenal, and cyberware before heading into the biggest mission of their life as someone who's well known instead of as an abject nobody... Then only being able to do small time work afterward with main story missions sprinkled in? I could see a cause for restricting gigs and hustles where there's dialog with Johnny to be unavailable until after he's with you and obviously main story events should only activate after The Heist. This would create a perfect opportunity to do what was otherwise just filler side content with Jackie and build that bond before the events of The Heist. Could maybe even call up T-Bug, use some recycled dialog and get her to help out when you need something hacked if that's not a part of your build. I imagine it could be difficult to rearrange or delay some of the early game events for some of this to work and make sense. Same goes for the dialog... Would probably have to use an AI voice clone generator to recreate some of it (or try to cut it up) so that you can go see Jackie and then Vic for The Ripperdoc mission without talking with either of them about Dex until you're ready. I don't know if most of this is even possible... But here's to hoping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
