Have probably killed 200 to 300 musicians and still haven't gotten the trophy have done it on a full 100% and a like 60% both good and evil just don't lmk what todo

But it's low key annoying that neon is slower than video AND fucking CONCRETE? HOW? When I first got neon I thought it was so sluggish for rendering perupsoes. Turns out nah, concrete and neon's speed need to be switches ASAP.

Now I know this topic is over talked about but please hear me out. So I was just thinking of how Infamous 2 Karma was like an angel and devil over your shoulder type of decision making. Which made me dissect the different karma types of the games.

Infamous 1 was more Cole trying to figure out how to survive the hell hole he was in. Save people or save yourself.

Infamous 2 was Cole having Nix and Kuo telling him how to put his powers to good use. Protect people or rule them.

Second Son on the other hand felt off as for Cole he always seemed like a morally grey character with no true sense of purpose but Delsin already had that and was shown to be a good person. Like for instance when Reggie was taking the bus full of people to Seattle, in normal Infamous fashion we'd choose between kicking the people out or letting them go but instead we didn't. Delsin let them go on his own which would make no sense why earlier we're told to choose between protecting the tribe and turning yourself in or letting them suffer to save your hide.

I always felt like the karma system could be like that of Infamous 2 where Delsin had a different paths to go. As in the game we are shown how Conduits are treated in recent years being labelled "Bio-terrorists" and the obvious fear of Delsin as he is one. Even Reggie seemed concerned about what his brother had become and Delsin trying to prove not all Conduits are bad. So I think the game could've been Delsin fighting for a side of humanity/peace amon both humans and Conduits or fighting completely against humanity and following Augustine's plan.

I don't know about you guys but I did not like the sudden drop of Augustine actually being a good person with good intentions after all her character has just been her being ruthless and unforgiving. I would've preferred if she did show some signs of "I'm doing this for the greater good" along the story.

Now back to the karma. Good karma could be us going along with Reggie to take down Augustine and save our tribe and Bad Karma involves us following Augustine and being a fighting for Conduit kind. This could affect the story as Reggie is more present in the game telling you about good morals and actions and a better way to come around using your powers and potentially give conduits a good name and as well Augustine also takes some time to give us intel on why she's doing what she's doing and implanting ideas of joining uer after all he does want conduits to be able to be free and that does seem like an easy way to do it.

Also you're probably wondering about Fetch and Eugene. Well their part of the story stays the same and the "Redeem" and "Corrupt" options stay there as in redeem it's them joining us to take down Augustine and uniting humans and conduits whereas in corrupt we bring them over to Augustine's side and allow them cooperate with us.

Reggie's death gets changed here as he dies due to our choices and not just from a non karma based mission allowing it to stick with Delsin. I took Trish's death from infamous 1 and it could play out quite like this. For a good karma playthrough, Augustine has had enough of our meddling and wants to give us a final chance to make a decision which is where she captures Reggie, Fetch and Eugene. Reggie on one side the others on another. Giving us the choice to save either Reggie and sticking with humans or Fetch and Eugene sticking with conduits. If we choose Reggie, Augustine stops us in our tracks and murders Reggie while we watch letting it stick with Delsin and the consequences of his actions but if we save Fetch and Eugene it shows our loyalty to conduit kind and we, of our own free will, watch Reggie get murdered to be able to fully cut ties with humans. Also I didn't mention how this would play out for evil karma and that is we are with Augustine but still communicate with Reggie which Augustine doesn't like asking us to either be with her or against her.

Now for the ending. To me I have two ideas. By default, if Good Karma our final mission will be taking down Augustine, obviously she wouldn't be killed. But evil Karma is like in Infamous 2 where we join the beast, here we join Augustine and other conduits and take over Seattle building our conduit haven. Second idea could be the same missions however we get to choose our ending no matter what karma.

Now I also know what you're thinking again, if the final mission for good karma is a boss fight, what about bad karma? Well since in Infamous 2 we fought Nix and not the beast, in this one we fight Fetch and that is because she was always a good person, she was a vigilante for humanity avenging her brother who was her Reggie and seeing evil Delsin push him away makes her leave him and fight against them. Eugene stays though. And this time Fetch dies by Delsin's hand and not Augustine.

This is just my take on the whole thing. I know it might not be perfect but I just thought I'd share

I was thinking about if Hank's daughter had any powersand how Delsin had powers but not Reggie, and it got me thinking.

So in infamous 2 you can use detonation blasts on mattresses and pallets to blast into the air and fly over big parts of the map. But I never seem to consistently do that (more often than not I fail). Can someone explain where (on the pallet/ground) I need to use the detonation blasts to do a proper jump?

Yeah just ranting but what’s up with his, seriously? In the first game it’s specifically kinda problematic in the balloon machine, where I’ve constantly tried climbing on top of billboards and water towers to gain a vantage point onto the balloon but for whatever reason you can’t lower the balloons defenses from those angles… and there really doesn’t even seem to be a valid reason for it. The lightning storm move works everywhere else

It is so difficult for me to complete a full evil play through on unfamiliar second son. I just couldn’t bring myself to screw over Betty like that. How do you guys manage to complete a dedicated evil play through

Why are the mission areas not showing up? I already beat the main story of the game.

It's such a unique power concept and execution. Gotta give it to the creative team behind second son and first light cause neon is so sick , especially the ultimate abilities.

The video ability is infamously (heh) memed on for being half baked, and full of missed opportunity much like the rest of second son. So I wanted to propose some changes that would make video a better power and fit Delsin way better once he acquired it. First of all, the angels and demons are gone. It makes sense why Eugene uses them but Delsin should use something that fits his character more. To this end, I suggest that the angels and demons are replaced by ravens since they're a prominent image in-game to represent your karma. They'd be summoned with stealth, but rather than shooting lasers they'll be using swooping dive attacks. Good karma upgrades: Allow the ravens to latch onto enemies and let Delsin subdue them Allow ravens to instantly subdue lower tier enemies Bad karma upgrades: Allow ravens to divebomb and explode for increased damage and AOE. Allow raven explosions a chance to instantly obliterate lower tier enemies.

For the wings, they would function as they do now but be replaced with raven wings. The color changes based on your karma, and the size of the wings will increase based on your karmic level until eventually you fully transform into a red/blue raven. Neutral upgrades: Increase uses in the air Increase distance traveled Good karma upgrade: Instantly subdue enemies you collide with, if they have ravens currently attached to them. Bad karma upgrade: Enemies you run into while using the dash suffer damage and knockback.

Karmic streak: Depending on your karmic level, the amount of blue and red ravens will vary. If neutral, an even split, if a higher tier then more ravens of they color until eventually all ravens match your karma color. The abilities functions the same until karmalevel 2. Post karma level 2 the functionality of the ability will change to: Good karma: All enemies have a 50% chance to be instantly subdued when damaged by this ability. Bad karma: All enemies have a 50% chance to be instantly obliterated by this ability.

Video stream remains unchanged.

Shroud of invisibility remains the same with the exception of the aforementioned "summon wingman" upgrade changes.

Drain video remains unchanged.

Bloodthirsty blades: No longer summons swords, but massive raven talons. The functionality remains the same, as well as any upgrades.

Anyway those are my ideas, let me know what y'all think and if you like it maybe I'll try my hand at some of the other abilities. (Particularly concrete)

It's been around 12 years, and concrete feels so... Unfinished. It has no Karmic streak, no variation depending on moral path, no finisher, hell, the animation for destroying those dup boss vehicle is copied from the video animation. Will they ever fix this?

Because I see it going one of two ways: Them suing him into the ground for over some copyright bullshit (seeing as how Heaven's Hellfire is the universe's version of World of Warcraft), or them making him their game's sponsor.

I have second son already and i like free roam more, would i be better off getting 1 or 2?

Sadly I wasn’t able to get the code fixed😢 $200 down the drain

I was so happy my package arrived, both the games came in. Problem is I really wanted to play festive of blood and infamous 2 but I don't know how to access festive of blood? Any tips or is it sold separately..

Due to how much I love the franchise I’ve always wanted to make a video game period. But I cant code or any thing else besides. Game test and almost as much gaming experience as I have years of life. I know how good games run and feel. I can only write and test. I got sick of saying i wish I could make a game. So I’m gonna try to put that wish into an action.

When i’m supposed to save him there’s no prompt. has anyone seen this before and know a fix? ps5

A thought just occurred to me. What if you could mix-and-match your different abilities in Infamous Second Son like how you could in Infamous 2, but mixing DIFFERENT powers? For example, you could have the Video Melee, Concrete Shrapnel for your Main Attack, Neon Dash, the video power's Comet Drop, Concrete Barrage for your Heavy Attack, Stasis Bubble for your Special Attack, Concrete Thrusters, and Hellfire Swarm for your Karma Bomb.

And just like how in Infamous 2, the powers were all connected so you wouldn't need to search out a specific source to get a specific power. You could drain from any of them, so draining smoke stacks, neon signs, video screens, or the Concrete from defeated DUP would restore your power meter regardless of which source it was.

Good Day Conduits.

Ive now played First light for the 5. Time and just realiset something off in the Part of Brent dying.

When Fetch comes Down from her trip with her dying Brother in her arms WHY TF DIDNT SHE JUST HEAL HIM!

Delsin a conduit with not even a day of having hes powers could already Heal civilians with many kinds of injurys (Gunshots, explosions etc.) Only condition is that they are still alive.

But Fetch, a conduit with 6/8 years of experience having her power could not save her brother who clearly was alive at that point and not desindegradet like Shane or just dead.

And i dont even wanna know How fetch must feel seeing Delsin Heal one person by another and thinking Damn didnt know my powers could do That.

This now just dosent satisfy me thinking fetch could heal her Brother but just didnt.

What do you think about this.

I was clearing up districts and saw that. (Best reference btw)

Buenas, tengo el inFamous Collection pero el código canjeable para descargar los DLCs del 2 y el Festival of Blood está vencido, pero vi que aún se pueden descargar por separado, quería saber si la colección traía contenido exclusivo que no se puede descargar aparte o si es lo mismo que está en la Store Y si es posible, ¿existe alguna otra manera de canjear el código si nunca se ha usado aunque esté vencido?
