talking to my friend about if netrunning Pritch had been in dxhr and how hard that'd of gone narrative and gameplaywise.
feel like jensen being able to use game mechanics to request assistance in hacking enemies or weapons would have been sick but i can see how that'd ruin the one man army fantasy and would require the whole game being more structured around the prominence of their partnership to sell it
But allowing pritch to netrun alongside jensen's missions would allow for some amazing interactions and dialogue.
since cyberspace somewhat reflects real world structure with the relative placement of networks and devices, it'd be sensible to bring Pritch with you to missions to allow him to physically jack in on premises and the first minutes are you having to find/make him a safe place to go catatonic.
made funnier by the fact he's probably fucking useless physically but as soon as he's electroscaping he's a fucking samurai
but could easily become multilayer drama with assisting each other, one or the other in trouble and having to choose who's mission goal to prioritize and potentially losing an important contact or data. imagining the possibilities....
