[леон prestes a ser decapitad]

;-;

[Erebus]

Darn, and here I thought a game about murdering people would turn out to be a jolly ride in Candyland :(

[леон prestes a ser decapitad]

It's not because of this,it's because Every protagonist die

[Lunchtime Zone]

I know, right?

I was ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sad when Fans died. They had so much character, but dev decided to kill them in half-way though the game! Same with Jake! And why kill Pig guy? What gives? A wasted ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ oportunity

I wanted to ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ kill the guy who just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ shot Tony for no reason, saying that "it had to be done". I hate that game didn't give me the oportunity to kill him.

But most of all I nearly cried when I saw the ending. Out of anger. All of this stuff, has gone to ♥♥♥♥. All of my effort, all those levels, don't matter. Everyone dies. JACKET ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ DIES. WTF? I hated the ending. I had an headache for the entire rest of the day and it still have some anger left after. Looking at the bright side, that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ cop died. gg.

I didn't know if I hated or loved the last level,It was funny because the son was on drugs and all but at the same time I was killing my favorite characters,and to worse everything,he kills himself on the ending

Same.
Also, ending was lazy.
Welp, I guess he took pills and went on rampage.
Why took so many of them? Nobody ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ knows. He's a mobster, I guess he does.

I didn't really hate the ending,I was angry in the start,but i did realise that this ending isn't so bad,it fits well with the HM storyline,and we can make crazy sequels with it

Fits well? It doesn't. It just throws a bomb out of nowhere just to ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ end it all, because probably developer was running out of ideas. How does a bomb fit with such great mystery HM1 had? Notice how little mystery there is in HM2! No mental problems or anything. Like story is set clear.

gee its almost like his pill-having was set up in act freakin 2 and that boredom in the absense of violence and drugs is a major HM theme.

The fans were intentionally crap characters, a parody of action figurey thin personality nothings and their death by the third act is entirely suitable for a game about not being comic book movie trash.

Eventhough he could've been already high after 2nd pill, and his guys also warned him. There was no reason for The Son to overdose. Just none.

Fans, crappy characters? You, sir, need a doctor. They were my favorite part of the game. If Dennaton wanted to make them crap, they have really ♥♥♥♥♥♥ it up. And if they don't matter, if they aren't supposed to make us care, why implement them? If they would've been bad, why kill them? They are well written characters, and died just to make us ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sad. Great job dennaton, you made me depressed and addicted to this music.

are you serious? recklessness against the advice of prudes is like the son's entire character.

outside corey's sliiiight pull of the group away from violence that manifests in nothing whatsoever because corey succumbs to peer pressure anyway, the fans are literally power rangers plus gore. maybe you need to stop watching children's cartoons.

If Dennaton wanted to make them crap, they have really ♥♥♥♥♥♥ it up.

i know, its amazing that even when intentionally handicapping themselves the characters still ooze with appeal, just not nearly as hard as basically every non-fans character.

And if they don't matter, if they aren't supposed to make us care, why implement them?

as a commentary on superficial idiots who just enjoy the violence of HM

1. That doesn't mean he needs to overdose. It's like because you like eating fruit you're going to eat the entire fruit supply in the town. He wasn't under extreme depression or anything. He made his gang strong after all.
2. You're talking about kid cartoons under Hotline Miami. Seriously? And I don't see how fans have any resemblance to power-rangers. You're the one who watches too many cartoons to bring this up.
4. If "superficial idiots" enjoy just the violence, they should stick to HM1. Everything that is implemented in this game has a deeper meaning.

man, he very clearly has exhausted his will to live by hitting the top. yknow, like the old man from hm1? son's at least mildly suicidal.

2. You're talking about kid cartoons under Hotline Miami. Seriously? And I don't see how fans have any resemblance to power-rangers. You're the one who watches too many cartoons to bring this up.

one of them is literally tony the tiger. the fans are thin, bored idiots who drive around looking for fulfillment through violence. their death was inevitable, and they more than any other characters are complete caricatures.

Get a grip, dude.

To be honest, The Son killing The Fans made him one of my favorite characters in the game. There is something beautiful about this group of people trying to emulate Jacket, who cannot successfully do any of the things he was able to do. They don't get to save the woman and they get murdered by the son of the mob boss jacket killed. If The Fans succeeded in properly emulating Jacket, the game would have been way more predictable and much less interesting.

exactly. the fans are just straight wannabees and how anyone likes them more than, say, richter or the henchman is completely baffling to me.

also its kinda great that the sympathy in this game really lies with the russians who just seem more comfortable with the game's themes and better people on the whole.
