I didn't realize when you run out of ammo you just start punching things. Was fun to punch that weapon in the depths to death.

The chapter 4 boss kicked my rear end so hard lol. Tried so many different combinations to beat it.

It's funny that I had a much harder time with the dude before Freud than the man himself.

How do you S Rank the Chapter 4 boss level?

Pretty sure that one is among the "just don't die" levels where as long as you make it through in a single go your ammo/repair costs are pretty much meaningless.

Like as long as I don't click 'restart from checkpoint' I can S Rank it even if I use all of my repair kits?

Pressing in L3 is a problem I have in every game. For some reason sometimes when I press L1 I also press L3 and L3 seems to always cancel what I do for L1.

Man I hated the Escort the Strider mission so much. Every time I thought all the enemies were gone, nope some fuckers were still skating around shooting me from behind.

The enemies are all on the map aside from the boss, just run ahead and pick them off

I think you may be thinking about a different mission. There is no boss in this one, just a constant barrage of super fast c bots and the wheel dudes..

Ah I think you're talking about the helicopter one. Yeah I always go ahead and take out all the guys before the helicopter gets to the checkpoint.

Sulla if you get him under a roof in back corner you can melee him to death and he can't get away.

Your misunderstandings of the plot aside, you don't even know what you're arguing over.

What the hell did you think I meant by more invasive mind-machine interfacing? Do you get why augmentation surgery is a thing in the setting?

Why are you so antagonistic to someone spending time to extrapolate on the plot?

Apologies, I was a bit tense over something unrelated and I see my lack of enthusiasm over picking apart someone else's unpacking of the plot came off as overly aggressive.

Getting to the core of it, I do agree Walter was possibly a torso hooked into the HAL, but the important part is more the Factory is where they send cases that are resistant to brainwashing + have useful combat skills, and how do you control someone for whom brainwashing isn't working? Since neural implants (augmentation surgery) are the go-to for improving pilot performance, my read is he's got the two-for-one with his brain scrambled by cyberware that also involves coral, else he wouldn't be able to pick up Ayre's signal otherwise.

How much of his other bits he's still got attached is open to speculation, but we know the HAL can be piloted without necessarily being a brain in a jar, and similarly that brains in jars isn't specifically what they do at the Factory - that's just one project they're experimenting with.


It's all good. Wanted to read your take and you provided it now. Thank you!

I liked my all plasma build playthrough on the chicken legs.
