Ok here we go, I've been exploring new musical options and hey, turns put that one guy who the media suspected of colluding with the mafia actually did. I feel like in the last log I didn't do enough speculative thinking, so here goes nothing. This game seems to have a pretty straightforward message hidden between some convoluted questions. Chiefly (that was a pun) it seems to want to ask if corruption is worth the price those around you lay and the price you will eventually pay. In this session I declined one of my characters "friend's" request to help the mafia to help save him and his family. He was worried about his daughter and wife, but from what I'm to know I have at least 2 sons and what seems to be a soon to be ex-wife. The question the game wants to know is if I would risk their innocent lives to save the family of a guilty man. I have to say, the numbers dont add up in his favor. That's my choice in the matter but I can see where that's a heavy question hir most people. Is my family worth more than this man's? Is my life worth more than his? Does he deserve the treatment he's been getting? Another development has me a bit worried. There has been an uproar from an anti-black movement, and because of the danger posed, I was asked to fire my black cops to "protect them". I have a few problems with this. My black cops are some of my best and brightest and firing them would never have crossed my mind as the thing to do. In fact I'm pretty sure from context clues that the only reason the game wants me to fire them is so that they dont die on my watch. This strikes me as utter bull. For that reason, and that I dont have a legal way to fire them even if I wanted to, I have opted to keep them and hope for the best. Though, considering this is a game with dark themes, I don't have much hope to hold onto.
