I’ve got 2,000 combined in both games and have zero interest in this.
It just doesn’t look much like a Horizon game to me. I’m also not interested in a live service game.
No hate towards anyone who is excited about this, I just don’t get it.
Concerning the scene where K is running through the DNA records of the child, couldn't K just compare his DNA to the child’s DNA? That would tell him instantly if he was the child.
According to the canonical description of Ana’s backstory, Deckard and the replicant freedom group “scrambled the birth records, making it seem that the pregnancy produced twins, a boy and a girl with identical DNA, and that the girl died young.” This would lead me to believe that the DNA is correct, just the metadata is mixed up.
That means the DNA in the archive is real, the girl’s DNA appears twice, one entry is labeled male, one entry is labeled female, and the the female entry is marked as deceased.
Because the DNA itself was real, K could have compared it to his own, checked the sex markers, run a familial match and reconstructed a phenotype (in a world that advanced), and gotten a rough idea of what the child looked like. Right?
He would have immediately learned the child was female, the DNA didn’t match his, and the ‘boy’ record was a decoy.
I only caught this during my fifth or sixth watch. Am I missing something?
This is the best description I’ve seen of the developer’s mindsets when they started designing BioShock Infinite, and why they made some of the changes they did. From Game Informer, Issue 210, October 2010.
