Worth playing the B scenarios?
I finished the First run with both Leon and Claire. 50% of both runs were about the same, especially the start, but it was still entertaining and fun to play both chars.

Now i have unlocked the 2. runs with both chars. Is it worth playing them? From what i've read the runs are almost the same as before with just a different ending and loot on other spots.

I don't really want to play again if 95% of the run would be the same as before.

The B runs basically cut maybe 30 minutes of what A runs are. Which means, the B runs are what happens 30 minutes after, so to speak.

You have a new pistol and its a bit more difficult. And of course you unlock the real ending.

If you enjoyed the experience, it worths. Otherwise, stick to Fornite.

besides different enemy types and mr. X appears much earlier, it is exactly the same. unlike the original were there was a clear difference. i was very surprised that i had to solve the exact same puzzles as in the A scenarios.

You paid for this game. Why would it not be worth it to squeeze every last drop?

In the B route you can go pretty much everywhere in the police station without having X show up
just don't pick up the battery in the STARS room

Going further through STARS corridor will trigger him as well, regardless if you got battery or not.

hmm odd he only showed up for me when i took the battery from weskers desk.

One you don't want to pick up the battery because it is scripted for him to chase you as you leave the STARS room. But if you keep going down the hallway past the STARS room as if you were heading to the linen room, he will start chasing you regardless if you picked up the battery. I know because I thought I was safe because I didn't pick up the battery but once I got a little past the door, I head him coming and I thought wtf lol

I remember this section well, so I was able to get everything in the other rooms. Making sure you board all windows that enemies will crawl out of, killing all enemies and make it clear for you pick up the battery and deal with Mr X without worrying about enemies.

Have you played hardcore? Most games are generally the same. Most people that play online shooters play on the same map multiple times. Challenge yourself by completing the game in S rank.

The game is great but I did notice it was the same. However I did notice that enemies were in different locations and so it caught me off guard when I saw clickers right of the bat. Because I thought it would parallel with whatever your first character was doing. So how could you both fight the same bosses at the same time? At this point then there would be no reason to have a second run if you basically going to fight the same bosses. Except Leon fighting Mr X and Claire fighting off William with the machine gun at the end with the exception of fighting off the final form of William on the train car.

It just makes you wonder what the other character was doing when the other was running around doing all the things that you end up doing? I would of like a co op section with Claire and Leon at some point in the game.

If you loved those A runs, totally.

I just turned off the steam, walked through showers and when i was about to enter the stars room, he came around the corner. I just managed to enter before he could punch me.
So no, i did not pick up anything in that room because he was already there.

I just finished both 2nd runs, and I thought they were better, though harder. I didn't have to do quite as much backtracking with the 2nd runs. Only downside was inventory space. I think I enjoyed Claire runs better with the more interesting weapons and the lack of Mr X for the second half. Don't get me wrong, I like X. I just liked the idea of G Birkin killing the baddest dude I know and then coming after me. I thought it was a great plot device.

Because to working adults time is often more valuable than money.

Then if there is such a crunch perhaps not playing games at all will suit you better.

It wont hurt you. B run is slightly different run than scenario A. If you play f.e Leon A and then Claire B, B scenario will change attempt into some puzzle and, since it's Claire run this time, main storyline will be different, which will give you pretty much new experience.
