So the Sequel

IDEAS!!!

This isn't a serious "What do you think will happen next?" thread, more like "What do you think an interesting idea for the next game will be?"

My sister brought up the idea of a widower who remarried and whose original wife died young. Now how do you deal with THAT one?

[El Fuerte]

Neil will be using Faye's data in his own memories (biker on brown clothes riding Neil's much desired motorcycle / lady that retrieves Potato's doll who was reportedly "using brown clothes and didn't even touched the water")

[Bellomy]

Oh, the "Going into Neil's memories" thing is coming, but I'm guessing two episodes from now.

[DeRockProject (jongyon7192p)]

What if we go into multiple people's memories in one game? Or we see Neil use Faye to make the Sigmund job more efficient. Maybe some use of the neat stuff we saw Neil make? Like the character customization could be used as a disguise while manipulating any events in a memory.

*cough* its ovious the whole game!
Neil is Making the most advanced VR games out there!
earliest prototype was already in testing with Faye! xD

Disco game

[Mr. Nobody]

I was thinking about the idea of the patient being a middle aged person (30 to 40ish so there would still be memories to traverse through) rather than an older person.

A simple plot idea could be a person gets some form of terminal cancer or other disease. As a last wish, they want Sigcorps to give them memories of a full life as though they lived to old age.

I don't think it's been addressed at this point, but I'm not sure if its even possible to alter a patients memory to such an extent as to add an extra 40+ years to there life. We certainly haven't seen any discussion of any younger patients at this point.

They did point that it wouldn't work for a kid on the first one (when Neil and Eva hear Johnny's name) but I think it might not be completely far-fetched for a relatively young adult

They didn't say it wouldn't work for a kid, they said that they were the wrong group for a kid; presumably SigCorp has child psychology experts.

DUDE, I love this idea.

The whole trilogy was actually a first test run (TtM - FP - 3rd unannounced sequel) of Sigmund Corp prototype machine on Neil. Or rather, Sigmund corp hasn't existed yet, just Neil and Eva.
They rewrite his mind so thoroughly that he though the machine already exists for years and has been living his life working on cases. All the cases was created/dreamt up by Neil himself.

You know, back before FP was released, I was 100% on board with this theory. But now that I've played FP, I think the major issue is that in Colin's memory in FP, Neil's HP bar is full whereas back in To The Moon when he wasn't in Johnny's memory, it was slightly reduced. I'm taking this to be an indicator that the world Rosalene and Neil are in right now isn't something dreamt up, but the real deal. Also, if it was a dream, then he wouldn't have been able to see what was going on with Rosalene in those sequences where he wasn't at. e.g. at the beginning when he stayed at the apartment/went to the car to retrieve the documents, and again at the end at Colin's funeral. Just my two cents.

Anyhow, I do believe that episode 3 would address this whole conspiracy that's going on between Neil, his pills and the reason he's altering the machine.

I was more thinking, mind uploads / AIs, but, okay :p
