Date played: December 3rd
Platform: PS4
I'm starting to get to grips with this game and it's complex systems. The story is starting to make a bit more sense too... I decided to abandon the document forging side mission and tried to find another way inside the gate. I was getting in trouble too often, dying too often, so I figured it was time for a new approach.
This proved to be a pretty good idea, though I still had to fight some guys that I didn't expect to fight. My job was to find the man that would help me repair my augmentations, but he was well protected by thugs.
After lots of messing around and messing with security systems, I found a way in through a hidden gate. Inside, I still had some goons to dispatch though... I might be missing something, but I just can't find any ammo for my tranquilizer gun. It seems all I'm left with are the occasional melee attacks, which is limited because of my battery power, and guns. Lots of guns.
I used my last tranquilizer dart on a distant enemy, threw a mine in the path of another, then shot the rest with my pistol and submachine gun. Enemies are a bit weaker than I first thought, they go down in just a few bullets for the most part, so combat isn't that bad.
After killing a bunch of bad guys, I was free to finally talk with the augmentation specialist. He agreed to help me, putting me to sleep so that he could "open me up". While this led to the desired effect of restoring my abilities, it also revealed some pretty crazy shit.
It seems that someone, somewhere, implanted me with some hidden augmentations! My new friend was able to unlock them, but if I want to use it, I have to be careful with my power consumption. This means that I have to choose certain augmentations over others... Unless I can find another man who can give me more power.
I spent some time with the tech tree, and while it's pretty small, it has many powerful abilities, so it's hard to make intelligent choices. I boosted my carrying capacity, since it looked pretty damn small, then spent some points in hacking and vision. I bought a few physical skills, like the one that lets me drop an infinite distance without hurting myself. I think I've got a decent set of augmentations to start the game, but I'm not quite sure yet.
