Christine & Andy (contains spoilers)

[heavensarewild]

If you`ve not started, or finished the main storyline, you might want to stop reading !

Christine is INNOCENT ! This travesty needs to be reversed immediately !

Her Antler business was a legitimate one, and she is the legal owner of the lodge, but Mr Simmons had more expensive lawyers, and that`s how you get justice in this world.

I`ve seen the security tapes from the lodge, she did NOT stab River ! She was in the kitchen making him some Sika Burgers, and when she heard him come in, she went to sneak up on him in the office, but the idiot turned around quickly, whilst she was holding the knife !

And stabbed him ?! Lies ! It was barely a scratch !

And River concocted the whole incident with Mr Simmons, who advised him to go and have a lie down in the worm caves, and we`ll get that gullible Jackie to find you, and we can frame up Christine for it all, and take over the lodge from her.

It`s also been revealed that Mr Simmons, was on a certain island, we can`t talk about, and was apparently friends with the person who ran that island, and who`s best mate is currently in prison, and his name appeared 37 times on the flight log.

And apparently Christine knew the locations of 23 secret bunkers, built in the area, by the rich and powerful, for when the poop hits the fan later this year. And not wanting this information to get out, a devious plan was put in action, to put her in prison, and shut her up.

Good to know. To be honest, such absurd stories don't interest me in the slightest. There's already so much nonsense in the media that you can't get past, you don't need that in a hunting game. They could have saved themselves all that work (and improved the animation and other things instead).

The best thing they could do is remake the game without the storys and sell it as a pure story-free version. Put some European cartridges in some good rifles, leave only the best in. Put in all playercharacters without the names for a free selection. Standard missions in. Preferably only single map versions so that you dont have to look at the whole mess permanently.

No nonsense, I'm completely serious. ,-)

I do really wonder why there is a story at all... I treat it as a way of being led round the map by the hand so at least I get to know some of the locations etc, and the long dialogue sections are when I can make a cup of tea or have a bio break.

[Mauserich]

As I see it, resources are being wasted in the wrong place and are being paid for by everyone where the game still has so many deficits. They can't even do proper research into what species are available to hunt in New Zealand, but producing stories that nobody wants to hear.

In my opinion, the developers are wrongly advised. There is nothing worse than co-financing people who just telling unnessesary stories. I hope they finally set the right priorities. ,-)

I'd be happy if the next DLC map lacks a story, and the time/money was spent on other aspects of the game development. After all, the lack of a story for Transylvania never caused much of a fuss did it, so a precedent has already been set.

I think Transylvania is good. Personally, the letters are almost a bit too exaggerated for me, but it's okay. I only played the other stories briefly and quickly gave them up again after a short time. You could play Nesperce a little longer, but I cancelled Alaska and Africa immediately, and the characters too. Game killer. If I read this above, I won't even start.

One Word: FREE HUNT. Anywhere, everywhere, all the time, no notes, missions, interactions, blah blah... just what you are complaining about!
Every map hunts perfectly fine in Free Hunt, so where's the beef?

I`d be interested to hear, how it works regarding resources, and if it`s something provided by THQ, that NRG can use within their game, and not have to outsource it, and take away a portion of the budget for their work.

Voice acting is a HUGE business right now, every time I watch a film, I then go onto IMDB, to read about it, I see SO many famous actors, also have credits as voice actors, so with them "double dipping" and taking work, and money away from unknowns, who`re looking for a way in, it`s good to see some new faces getting the limelight, and opportunities.

Now, I`ve no idea about the history of any of the voice actors in the game, and they might have a ton of credits in games, but I don`t begrudge the stories, and giving work to people in the profession, and have especially enjoyed all the stories on 4/5 maps.

I really missed the lack of a story on the TV map, with how "dark" the stories have been in Alaska, Africa, and now NZ, not having a story there, was a missed opportunity.

Would love for NRG to add a feature on their blog page, with all the voice actors, and be able to put names to faces, and hear how it all works. And if some of the actors, do more than one voice, like in Futurama, where I think 6 of the cast, were responsible, for over 200 different characters within the game.

Which probably infuriated any union for voice actors !

Yes, it would be interesting to find out whether group services can be called up and how internal billing works. Just for the sake of understanding. I don't necessarily have to know the people. I'm really only interested in a quality hunting game. As for the voice actors, the map introductions speaker is very good and appropriate, but the story ... well, I don't want to repeat.
