Will we ever meet Six in Hexagon?
« on: December 16, 2018, 07:47:09 pm »
Is the main storyline going to have a real conclusion or are we gonna be stuck in a Half Life 3 situation? I saw Styg said at some point that a sequel would have you starting from scratch, which I assume means a seperate protagonist.

I know Expedition is on its way but I doubt thats going to contribute to the Godman saga directly. I love Underrail's story and would be disappointed to see it end like this.

Hopefully they end it properly in the expansion, or a second expansion. I wouldn't want a sequel to Underrail in which we start from scratch.

Keep it singular, and keep it great.

I can't see how adding North Underrail could be contained within expansion format. If anything I'd expect a single North city to be 4x Core City in terms of sector count/size alone. They didn't call Southerners "ratters" for nothing.

So yeah I'm awesomely hyped for Hexagon and Dis.

It doesn't seem like the team is in much of a hurry to get to that part of the story, but maybe it will happen in the next DLC.

It just hit me how the names are connected; six and hexagon (six-sided shape).

I dont have an issue with sequel games having entirely seperate protagonists, I just want them to finish what they started in Deep Caverns.  Seems like they put themselves in a really weird spot in terms of continuing the story past Tchort's death.

Who knows.  Maybe they couldn't explain even if they wanted to.

Hopefully in the next DLC!


I wish there were more games that were able to adequately wrap-up the story line in a single game. So many sequels that create glaring consistency/congruence issues with the previous game.

A single continuous story line is rare.

Why would anyone want to meet Six?
To get answers? You will not. You will be maniplulated and discarded again at best.

To see a real conclusion to the main storyline instead of a cliffhanger? Also how did we get 'discarded' by Six? After realizing youre the one to slay Tchort he checks up on you and even urges you to travel to North Underrail and participate in future events.

Err... main "storyline" was concluded without cliffhanger. There were start of a new one, but it's different thing.

Hunting down Tanner, most likely.  Don't know what else could be as important to a godman as taking on a leviathan.

Isn't tanner the one responsible for all the conflicts of the main quest?? Yeah, the Cube got returned, but the behind-the-scenes antagonist escaped, and Six is telling us we need to go get his ass in the North. Natural progression of the Six/Tanner/Cube/Tchort conflict gets cut off. How is that not a cliffhanger?

Because all main plot point reached at the end.
Six/Tanner conflict is different line.
I'm not pretending to be Smudboy, it's just my opinion, YMMV.

If there ever is an Underrail 2, or any sort of continuation of the main storyline, I really hope that it includes a continuation of the Free Drones / Protectorate conflict, preferably in a way that involves General Melek directly. I would love to be able to depose General Melek in a coup d'etat and replace him as head of the Protectorate, in a "let's make the Protectorate less evil" kind of ending, where they become a force for justice and order in the Underrail, instead of tyranny.

And if you get to meet Six in that bar in Hexagon, there better be a dialogue option to say how the Hanging Rat bar is better, and get the barkeep all pissed off. Like: " 'What the hell is a Hanging Rat?' <You laugh and take a swig of your drink while the barkeep looks at you in annoyance>"

Oh, and Dude should be there, with no clear explanation of how the hell he got there. :P
