INFAMOUS SECOND SON PAPER TRAIL KILLIAN SERIES

Without a doubt, it would have been fun to play with more than four core powers but Smoke, Neon, Video, and the final conduit ability (which we won't spoil here), provided plenty of room for experimentation and diversified/personalized combat.Īs a result, even though we'd all love to add more abilities to our charged-up Delsin, it was probably unrealistic (though understandable) to think that Sucker Punch would have spent a significant amount of time developing an entire new power as a reward for a DLC experience that required very little in-game asset development. While we still do not know the reason neither were ultimately added, maybe they were scrapped altogether or evolved into other (final) powers, there's no denying that creating, balancing, and bug testing Delsin's in-game arsenal must have been extremely time consuming. However, in a pair of messages from the official Sucker Punch Twitter, the developer asserts that Paper powers will not be made available - but gamers can look forward to other 'Paper Trail' inspired unlocks:ĭays back we highlighted two powers that Sucker Punch had, at one point, considered for inclusion in Second Son - Glass and Wires.

Still, Sucker Punch also put together a cross-medium experience, 'Paper Trail,' that follows an escaped conduit in-game as well as through interactive viral marketing content.Įver since 'Paper Trail - Part 1' debuted, many gamers began wondering what rewards might await participants at the conclusion of 'Part 6.' Given that the central character in 'Paper Trail' can control and use Paper, as opposed to Neon, Smoke, etc., players remained hopeful that a new conduit power might be unlocked after completing all of the DLC missions and puzzles. Gamers who pre-ordered Second Son were treated to a set of DLC missions in the form of 'Cole's Legacy' but, while the add-on wraps-up lingering story threads, the actual combat scenarios weren't particularly memorable. A 10-hour campaign that's supplemented with (sometimes redundant) side missions left some gamers wanting more - even if there is an entire second side of the morality system, with new power options, to explore. Luckily, Delsin is able track down Bennet's lackey and prevent the sale from going ahead.Still, while the game has racked-up positive reviews across the board, the actual content in the title is somewhat limited. He discovers that the group has connections inside the DUP, and that the DUP's radical Chief Scientist, Tyler Bennet is planning to sell the list of suspected conduits to the military. Most recently, Celia prompts Delsin to investigate the increasingly murderous anti-conduit group Lifeline. A note claims from the perpetrator claims that they've never killed before, but were driven to by Winegard's policies on the families of known conduits. Through investigation, Delsin discovers the bombings were staged by Winegard to garner sympathy votes, but when he confronts the senator, they are hit by a real car bombing. Winegard claims the attacks are being carried out by conduits.

Next, Delsin's attention is drawn to a series of car bomb attacks on anti-conduit Senator Winegard, currently running for re-election. There is Heaven's Hellfire paraphernalia at each crime scene, with the final victim even being found in Eugene's basement, but again there is no sign of conduit powers. The next murder spree Celia leads Delsin to is of three key individuals in a court case that extended the DUP's powers to detain suspected conduits without probable cause. Each is found tied to a neon sign, but with no sign of actual conduit powers. The first set of victims are a low-level drug-dealer, his human-trafficking boss, and a crooked political lobbyist customer of theirs, all of whom were implicit in taking advantage of Fetch during her junkie days. A mysterious paper conduit, seemingly long-dead Curdun Cay inmate Celia Penderghast, contacts Delsin, leading him to crime scenes across Seattle.
