Meredith Stout

[Mike]

Guys, can i do the optional quest of meeting meredith stout accompanied by Jackie? It seems more sensible realistically.

[Porkhammer]

Nope.

Keep in mind whatever you think of Meredith Stout she is more scared of you during your meeting then you are of her as you just dropped that you have pertinent info on her life or death situation. Bringing back up probably wouldn't take her edge off.

After my meeting with her at the No Tell Motel, I'm pretty sure Meredith Stout isn't scared of anything.

That encounter comes after V turns a life or death scenario into a promotion opportunity for her. A one night stand falls into the "least I could do" category which she fully admits to. If she wasn't scared for her life in the first meeting it means her... assertiveness is normal behavior. That is a whole hell of a lot of edge to carry around on a daily basis.

Not at that point no, but if you've ever seen what happens to her if you didn't end up helping her you'd see why.
She dodged a lot more than just a simple bullet. And having done so she's going to be riding that high for days, if not weeks.

you're right it is more sensible, jackie is literally on the same street. no more than 100 yards away lol

devs probably weren't too worried about this oddity, but they sure had plans for it because that was an option in the 2018 gameplay reveal.

My question is, "Where do you meet Meredith?" I do not see a question icon on the map.

I only have "The Pickup" in the Journal.

No-Tell Motel in Kabuki. Use the Kabuki Central fast travel point to get there.

-but she needs to have contacted you and arranged the liaison. If that hasn't happened, you won't be able to meet with her.

edit - just realized I am thinking of the wrong meeting with Meredith. Tokken's answer, below, is correct for the point-in-time this thread is referring to...

Dex told you about Meredith during The Ride and you got her number to call. You should have seen an 'Optional' job of meeting her _before_ doing The Pickup. If you completed the Pickup without meeting her, you lose that option. In general, when the game gives you an optional objective, you don't want to ignore it.

No, you can only have companions when it's an artificially-imposed setpiece for the story missions in this game that's based on an obligate-multiplayer TTRPG
