Shadowrun Returns

Shadowrun Returns

MKVI best choice [SPOILER]
Hello.

I have a question for those who finished the game.

What is the best choice?Give the cyberzombie to Lucas, to the other guy...kill him....?
What's the most satisfying choice?Will working with Lucas make me regret this decision?

You can spoil the story for me, i don't mind.But i would apreciate if you don't spoil the story for me so much... :)

Thank you in advance!

While I haven't finished the game, I've done this run. I'd say go with what grabs your fancy. Being the moral shadowrunner, I took a third option.

Biomed skill lets you unhook the drone rig from the cyberzombie, letting the troll have control again. He promptly suicides messily, and your only option then is to ship him off to the original client.

The e-mail you get is PISSED that he wasn't alive and functional, but since you technically fulfilled the contract you still get paid.

I gave the prototype to the lodge and recieved an extra 2k. The client still paid me but he said never to contact him again, I'm not sure if he'd give me another contract later if he was happy with the outcome or not

EDIT . . . I freed the prototype who then killed himself shortly after. Stuffed him into the client van and still got paid by the client (3750), but he was still pissed and said he never wanted to work with me again. No bonus since I didn't give him to the lodge but my team was happy with the choice.

I also ran through it one more time and put him in the client van undamaged. Got paid by the client only (3750), no bonus, but he was happy with the outcome even though my team wasn't. I'm going to wager that it doesn't matter if the client is happy in the grand scheme of things but it's only a guess. Give the prototype to the lodge if you want the extra cash, free him if you want your team to trust you more, and give him to the client if you think you might get another contract from him later on.

^As Cake said - better give him to the Lodge and receive additional money. The game has very few consequences of your actions, and this one isn't one of them. Most effects from your choices are off-screen and narrational.

Besides that's the only mission from Herr Schmidt, so yes, you don't lose anything by giving him to the Lodge.

You can also ask Blitz or Glory to restore the zombie's free will--which promptly causes him to still kill himself.

All 3 outcomes result in 10 karma rewarded, the 'Lodge' choice gave 2000 nuyen, 'Schmidt's coice gave 3750 nuyen, ditto for the choice of freeing the MKVI, though with one unhappy customer under the belt.

Thanks to Kyonmyon for the info.

Just for clarification, all three choices result in the same 3750 from Schmidt but the 'Lodge' choice pays an additional 2000 on top of that.

You only need to do 2 of the 3 Lodge requests to get their gift package later.
Between delivering a cryptic message to a corporate flunky, letting a supremacist racist live or delivering a tortured troll to an indefinite life of slavery and/or experimentation, I decided that the last one was the hardest to live with. Sure I lost out of 2000 nuyen from the lodge, but I could live with that. Money in Dragonfall is not THAT tight.
