Phantom Liberty - Spoilers - The Man Who Killed Jason Foreman - eviltoast

Did you shoot him as soon as you saw him or did you give him a chance to speak?

    I let him talk. As with most of the PL quests, there’s always some deeper layers and usually a pretty good moral decision to make.

    If you finished all the Cyberpsychos and the quest to find them all, at some point in the conversation you’ll have the option to convince him to call Regina to get help. I chose that method. Of course it kind of back-fires later on with the quest-giver chick in the Stacks, but I still feel better about the whole outcome.

        Obvious spoilers here—-

        Dude txts you back a few days later and says he was recovering, thanks for the help, etc. But he feels really bad about all the people he killed and wants to make it up to or apologize to the people in the Stacks. V can reply with basically a “no! You’ll ruin eveything, dont!” Because they think he’s dead. But he says “too late, already did”.

        Soooo, you could just never go back to that area….or if you do, they’ll all be really upset with you and never talk to you again. You dont really have any need to go back there anyways, but not a 100% happy ending, as with most of the PL quests, lol.

          That’s impressive how dumb this guy is. Look for forgiveness from the people who understandably sent someone to kill him. The best for both parties would be for him to play dead and deal himself with his feelings.

            Yea. If i remember right he had no memory of actually killing everyone, just the beginning when the kid tried to screw him over. So maybe he didnt think about how bad it actually was?

            And, of course, V never made it clear that everyone was supposed to think he was dead…’cause taking his dog tags wasnt clear enough.

        Fair enough! I was under the impression you had to finish all the quests. I had already done so prior and i think i read about it to confirm, so whatever source i read that wasnt correct!

    I talked to him at length, but I still chose to kill him. Maybe if he sounded even a bit remorseful about what he did I’d get letting him go, but he sounded like a bastard about it and I feel more for the people who were aggrieved by him.
