A few questions (MAJOR SPOILERS!)

[Ro9ge]

The M.E.A.T. plot thread didn't resolve in my quest list, I think due to not getting the results back from Bubo investigating the M.E.A.T. product. Did I miss something there?

The Spider Queen's daughter quest is also incomplete. I found the letter in Frank's place, but didn't get anything in my inventory, and had nothing to present to or discuss with the Queen. What did I miss here? (My inventory was a big bugged by the end, with several empty slots and odd selection.)

For Mike, it seems that he got away, and didn't kill the Chicken police due to Zanya's plans, but I didn't notice any dialogue acknowledging this after he shot Marty. It feels a bit weird for him to be so completely absent from the story immediately after, not even a line or two from Sonny about him wondering why he ran off, or that he might cause trouble in the future, but can't worry about him for now? Did I miss anything? I'm assuming he'll show up in future games.

For the big plan, we got a follow up from Moses and Plato, but how did the Queen and Cala's mission go? Cullen and Pip's?

Were we supposed to use the ring somewhere? It's a vital piece of evidence linking Zanya to M.E.A.T. and the gangs, but wasn't mentioned afterwards, not even given by Sonny to Moses when he initially plans to leave the city.

Did Zanya really plan and manipulate every action we did and all the upper crust did for the entire game? Including us confronting her in the cathedral in a clear trap? If so....why was it so easy to just shoot her? Was there some motivation about wanting someone to stop her that's related to the missing 10 years? It feels very demotivating to learn that we basically did nothing worthwhile during the entire game, if it was all Zanya's (Or the secret service's) plan. There's an implication that she didn't think we had the evidence necessary to convict her without the entire city falling apart, but was that all?

Speaking of, what....happened to the city? And the war? Did Sonny leave while it was falling apart, while it was still smoldering, or did he exit before anything could happen yet, since he didn't want to find out? I felt like there was an implication that the King settled things down, but I would like a bit more info. Will this get followed up on in other Wilderness games?

Was the stinger from last game about his wife something that was intended to be followed up on, but was canceled/changed, or will it come up in another Wilderness game?

Just finished the game and it feels like it was rushed a lot in the last chapter. I thought I skipped a cutscene or some dialogues.

Even the final confrontation felt... Strange. Like, the solution for all the plot was just shooting the bad guy ? And the king, who was manipulated for months, just needed to be told "she is bad" and that's it ?

And yes, it feels like everything is okay at the end, the riots etc didn't happen

Yeah, really felt like there were a few scenes missing.

I'd understand the king being persuaded somewhat easily - he did ask his secret service to make sure she was above board, and had to have some doubts. That being said, it was still definitely too fast of a turn around for him to see her dead body and go "Welp, guess she was evil." I'm guessing that Louis convinced the king off-screen, showing all the evidence that we'd gathered, since Louis didn't really do anything during the final chapter that we saw.

In the last clue-connecting minigame, where the player had to outline the "great plan" Lewis was sent to tell the King about Kayla's plot and her true intentions. Before that, Lewis himself stated that the King was already pretty suspicious about Kayla, moreover, he was the one who told Lewis to keep an eye on her. So the King was socially insecure and a weak leader on the surface, but he is way more cunning and smart than he lets on.

Overall: We are sorry if the last chapter seemed a bit rushed, we didn't mean to make you feel that way. It could have been drawn out and stretched even more - that's for sure, but regardless, the fact that many questions were left unanswered is entirely deliberate. We wanted the end of the game to be shocking and like a slap in the face, and to leave the player with questions that they will be left waiting to answer, or will start to answer themselves with all the hidden hints and clues. Essentially, the detective work doesn't stop at the end of the game: From there on, the players have to continue the investigation themselves. :)
