I don't mind spending the beginning of the game not knowing what is happening in the over all story, but when you don't know for ages what you're even doing, I'd probably get fed up. Plus it seemed that many of you diary entries were starting with "Nothing much happened today". That could be my mind playing tricks.<br />I'm sure this isn't the movie reference as Johnny Mnemonic is based on Neuromancer, but Molly Samples psych report is that movies plot, plus you're just recording what was in the game.Draconiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06261641328136220239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3387495443226852794.post-87748372357054044392013-06-07T00:02:47.966+10:002013-06-07T00:02:47.966+10:00Overall date of completion might be faster, but I&...Overall date of completion might be faster, but I'm fairly sure you won't spend the number of hours I did playing.
