tracker timer

[jaqueline lorn]

is it possible to disable the tracker in time to stop the bounty hunter from showing up?

[Blind Gardener]

Yes. There's two ways, and both of them grant you a +1 upgrade point at the end, but one of them makes it so you can't have a special event.

Or... do you mean the first time the tracker runs out? In that case no. When the Hunter is Ethan, there's simply not enough time to get everything done before the 'meet Ethan' tracker runs out.

There's not QUITE enough time to disable the tracker before paying (or not paying) Ethan's tab. There IS enough time to disable the tracker before the second time you meet Ethan in the bar, however.

I take that back, there's ONE way to disable the tracker, and one way to kill the bounty hunter before he can find you. You want to kill the bounty hunter, Merrick, before you disable the tracker as it gives you more upgrade points.

To be clear, the "get rid of the tracker" questline is very long and takes you right to about the start of the endgame.

Hmmm... Intriguing... I was looking for a "what happens when I get the gun back and potentially give it back". But I disabled the tracker first. Not sure I want to replay the whole game to see what happens, but.. I am certainly curious.

So what happens if you don’t disable the tracker before the second bounty hunter arrives? Is there an actual game over in this game?

None of the bad stuff ends in a game over as far as I know. You just lose condition, or energy, or some times money or whatever. So no, you don't die if the bounty hunter arrives.
