  • Hello everyone, and welcome back to The Retro Vault! A journey back through time, looking at classics from the PS1, XBOX/PS2, XBOX 360 and PS3 area, maybe even further back too!
    In episode three, we will be looking at the story from Westwood Studio's faithful point and click game, Blade Runner. Set during the events of the 1982 film of the same name, this game featured a really cool, original storyline!

    I think this series is a good idea, there's lots of old games I probably wouldn't enjoy playing for a variety of reasons, but I am deeply fascinated by all the stories untold and mysteries unexplored because of me not ever playing these, so this is a great bridge to close that gap.
    Keep up the work!

    Here's the for and against McCoy being a Replicant:
    For:
    * The picture (with a counter in 'against' in a sec).
    * Guzza says he's seen incept data for McCoy.
    * Tyrell addresses McCoy in the same way he does all other Replicants.
    * Clovis can spare McCoy if he doesn't go all antagonistic. No reason to do that at the end unless he really is a Replicant.
    * McCoy can be shot several times and survive.
    * He can take scorpion venom and survive (although see counters in a sec).
    * Gaff's entire script seems to hint it: "If you retire a human, your life is over. Remember that." Except a) You can kill humans and survive in this game and b) Read it as 'if you retire AS a human your life is over...' which, of course, retirement is a euphemism for Replicants being executed. The hint is if McCoy pretends to be human, he will be Retired anyway. The other hint is how Gaff compliments him on doing a "man's work" i.e. 'the work of a man' because he is NOT a man.
    Against:
    * The picture proves nothing as on the same picture you can scan the fire and it shows an oddity that McCoy is missing. So even if McCoy IS a Rep, the picture can't prove it, and it is the biggest evidence to indicate it.
    * Mia & Murray have seeningly known McCoy for some time. Too long for him to be a Nexus 6. Seeing as he is a new Blade Runner, if he is a Nexus 6, he only exists to infiltrate the LAPD and he seems to have had too much of a personal life before being a Blade Runner for that.
    * If Deckard is also a Rep, which he might not be, it narrows McCoy's chances as Tyrell wouldn't risk two Nexus 6's infiltrating the LAPD as discovery of one would likely lead to discovery of both.
    * Guzza is a liar and his testimony is going to be suspect. He's told this off of Clovis who also has reason to lie. Two liars don't make a truth.
    * Whilst McCoy can take some scorpion venom, he can still die by being stung.
    * He shows sufficient emotional response to be a human.
    I think he isn't as the picture is forged but I suppose all it proves is that McCoy isn't part of the Moonbus Massacre and might be from a different stock. I just don't buy it.
    Deckard however is totes a Rep.

    @DeltaGammaKilo 27 วันที่ผ่านมา

    In the original game, the replicant randomizer also includes McCoy. In some playthroughs he will be, in others he won't be.

    You can also drive off with Lucy in the ground car instead of Dectora and you can try and gather all the replicants you have encountered so all of them will fly off with you in the moonbus (Lucy, Sadik, Dectora, Clovis and Zuben)

    Blade Runner, one of the finest pieces of anti-capitalist media ever produced whose production was inspired by Philip K Dick 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?'.

    • @GameFuMaster

      It's anti-corpo, which effectively functions as a state.
      It's more anti-state than anything, just look at LA today and you'll see the effects.

    • @BleedForTheWorld
      @BleedForTheWorld ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@GameFuMaster yet again I hear that it's anti-state when private property exists within its universe. In order to protect private property, you need an enforcement agency that protects its assets and that's called a state with private property laws. The corporations within the BR universe are also run by a hyper capitalist mode of production in mind akin to the industrial revolution where "people" (the replicants) are used as institutionalized slave labor. It's dystopian in not only as it is regressive in many ways but also as a society which values the lives of people so little they would be raised like artificial livestock for the benefit of a few.

    I remember when I had the 2-disc C&C Red Alert, there was a trailer for this game at the time (1998) and a Trailer for the Dune RTS game. I was never able to find a CD copy of this game despite how much I wanted to play it at the time. It was in the same gameplay style as the original Resident Evil games on PlayStation.
