When looking to do a second playthrough of Rockstar's cowboy classic , the honor system should be on players' minds as they determine whether Arthur Morgan will be good or bad. Deciding on a morally upstanding outlaw who does bad for good reasons or a heartless killer who revels in the crimes he commits is the key choice here. Each has its benefits (though one side vastly outweighs the other), and must be considered when starting up the game and journeying into Colter for the second time around.
The honor system is one of two original systems that made the game stand out. The other, the Fame system, was sadly left on the cutting room floor when the sequel was being made (though its loss wasn't felt too much). Performing certain actions, such as saving a stage coach from bandits, shows why Arthur should always be nice to people in and will raise Arthur Morgan'shonor level. By contrast, robbing that same stage coach will lower it. Each end of the honor spectrum comes with its own benefits and drawbacks, however.
When determining whether to do a second run with high or low honor in , weighing the pros and cons of each will help make the decision leagues easier. High Honor leads to reduced prices in shops, more outfits to buy, and better loot from enemies. Howver, Low Honor leads to more loot from enemies, this time loot geared toward causing mayhem (such as deadeye tonics and the like). When starting up the second playthrough, leaning to one side or the other will drastically alter how the world treats the game's protagonist.
Playing through as an honorable gentleman yields many enticing rewards. The lower ranks give minor improvements to quality of life, such as looting better tonics off of dead bodies and an 10% discount in shops, which is useful for those early-game arsenal upgrades. Ranking up honor in even further boosts the quality of looted tonics and gives access to new outfits to purchase from general stores or clothiers, outfits befitting a man of honorable stature. Eventually, the discount in shops is increased to 25%, and even more outfits are unlocked. Reaching +7 Honor will unlock a whopping 50% discount in stores, and reaching the maximum honor unlocks a trophy/achievement (though this can also be unlocked by going as low honor in as possible).
The pros here are easy to see. An honorable Arthur gets bonuses to looted supplies, more realistic clothes for Arthur, and a gradually building discount at every shop in the game, reflecting his heroism and good nature. Given what happens to Arthur over the course of 's story,a high honor Arthur does tend to make the most sense.
Being good in isn't meant to be easy, or else everyone would do it. Oftenthe acts that build honor,such as assisting

The next Cyberpunk game from CD Projekt - currently codenamed "Orion" - might have multiplayer in it, according to co-CEO Michal Nowakowski. Please let it be some kind of deckhead 'passenger-seat-driver' mode, where you get to play a crusty celeb uploaded to another character's brain implants, who strolls around the landscape as a hologram, offering gritty commentary on your Night City-based endeavours. Watch those corners, samurai! Hey, you missed an ammo pack. SAMURAI ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME.

Have you always secretly dreamed of being an entrepreneur but the scale of things have kept you daunted? 2023 has changed this perspective for would-be entrepreneurs. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is emerging as a transformative force, helping everyday entrepreneurs in emerging markets turn their dreams into successful businesses.
The growth of artificial intelligence means young people should be learning how to think critically and have good judgment, rather than developing coding skills, according to one of New York's top bankers. “I'm not sure, if I was advising my kids, that learning how to be great coders is going to matter in 10 years,” Centerview Partners LLC co-founder Blair Effron said in an interview with Bloomberg TV's David Westin. “What will matter is: Do you have judgment? Do you have an ability to think critically and ask questions that need to be asked?”
The era of AI PCs is upon us, & the upcoming PC markets will evolve into something that the world hasn't seen yet, as hinted by several manufacturers at CES.
