Vivian Young's story definitely needs some expansion. The JKK quest you do with her is one of the best in the game, and then *poof* she's gone.

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Tanner used advanced neuro linguistic programming on protagonist to make him follow orders without questioning. This was also done to break natural limitations of protagonist's brain to give him superhuman ability to adapt.
Where was this?

I liked the story -a lot! I had a lot of motivation to march on. The world of Underrail is very mysterious, and even the mcguffin had an air of mystery that I wanted to resolve. In addition, at the very least I was following the instructions of my employers (SGS/Tanner).

On the other hand, it is disappointing to have so many loose ends at the end. I agree on this part.

I had the motivation - to explore the game and what it has to offer. It is my character who did not have a believable motivation to do all this shit.

Maybe Tanner put a spell on him, but still, the story conceals far too much info which hampers my ability to understand motivations of many key characters.

i thought that was an interesting way to end that questline. It makes you wonder if she really was a traitor and JKK did the right (albeit harsh) thing, or she was murderef for not being loyal enough and wanting to quit.

A shame that we're not able to tell Mykola about her fate.

Playing the expedition: I wiped out the natives and the pirates early one, and my supply levels were consistently very high- but having finished the command center, they're all now extremely low. Is that normal, or is it a bug? I guess that they did that to add more tension to story, but it feels pretty lame to punish you for going out of your way to keep the supplies topped up.

So what is the goal in the Nexus of Technology? I'm not getting in the vault, what else is there? Professor won't clear the quest.

*edit* nevermind, found it, missed one entry on one stupid computer console.

*edit 2* okay, I got a note in my log that I discovered something but I can't tell the professor about it. Fuck this stupid place. If I just blow the black sea and leave will everything fail?

Use the chip encoder to upgrade the microchip in the arm. You have to do that before you can talk about it.
You're allowed to leave if you want. Everyone will wait for you to get back. The natives will even pause their raids until you're in the area, they're very patient.

Where's the chip encoder?

Wasn't a problem in FO2 with vehicle? Something with appearing only half vehicle in certain villages?

I'm in the Nexus, Security floor. Does anyone know how much Hacking does the security console need in order to disable the security cameras? It seems to be more than 90.

Deep caverns are a little tedious, aren't they? Most of these fights aren't engaging, just repetitive.

Eh I'm fine with it. After the Black Sea it feels like a breath of fresh air. Forcing you to keep moving and deal with respawns adds extra tension to what would otherwise be very simple fights.
