The original game has this intro as well but it’s like 4x as brief lol: you get the pan through Future City except its not painfully long, you see the supremely dweeby main character, cops bust in, we see the establishing shot of citadel station in like a minute. shodan’s narration explains the entire plot - we hacked in and got arrested, Edward Diego gives us access to shodan because he wants her ethical constraints removed, she is clearly evil, we find out why we are in a coma for 6 months, game start. Over in literally 2 minutes. It rocks!
now in this one it is a lot funnier that you are now a buff cool guy hacker who isnt afraid of no cops and diego is now a sinister dracula man instead of an incompetent bureaucrat because i really liked the idea of the main character being this guy
and the whole shodan thing being the result of an incredibly stupid guy trying to climb the corporate ladder instead of being ridiculously malevolent like hes the gman or something
Anyway, this looks like a really good remake of the game besides all that, so i can’t complain too much!
