Humane alternative for Rex Quest

So, the "nothin but a hound dog" quest never made much sense to me. I don't see the point in killing a perfectly healthy dog to save another, and if Rex just goes back to whatever life the previous brain had before, did you really save Rex, or just swap a dog's body out for no practical reason??

 

My main idea for a workaround isn't that creative- rewording the courier's dialogue a bit so that you're actually replacing the brain juice(or...whatever) and once that's done the brain itself will rapidly recover to normal health. If it worked for the think tank then it can work for Rex!! You'd need to get a good, healthy sample of cerebrospinal fluid so that Doc Henry can produce the replacement gel. Don't even need to change his dialogue, just now he means you need a dog with a healthy brain.

 

So you find the dogs, convince their owners to let you perform a potentially dangerous procedure, then bring a vial back to Jacobstown and save Rex's brain. Happy end! ...ofc this is a pretty lazy idea, and full of "THAT DOESNT WORK THAT WAY" logic so, I'm sure literally anyone reading can think of something better lmao

Yeah, I feel essentially the same way, (your brain *is* you etc). I think the bio med gel/biogel is teh key.

Biogel;

"All kinds of brain bots, robobrain, humanoid brain bot, think tank and cyberdogs use the bio med gel as part of their internal repair and maintenance systems".

I think players can imagine a lot of opportunities to pick up some newly produced/fresh biogel (especially in OWB).

I wouldn't mind hearing some ideas about it, and could put something together for Rex (awesome pup).
