Just finished Lonesome Road, damn it Ulysses.

It was fun, though it's a pretty narrow road with only a handful of off ramps, which all lead back into the main arch. Still it was a nice scene, until Useless started preaching at me. Now don't get me wrong, I like him on some level. I'm just confused to how he was meant to come across. Like if he was meant to come across as some sort of deep philosopher, with his words having heavy meanings to make you re-think the choices and roads you've taken to get there, then I hate him. Because that's not what I got at all, what I got was a man out for simple revenge because there was no one else he could blame for what went down at the Divide.

His words held nothing but hate, hate for me, hate for my faction, hate because I didn't know what was in the box. I don't blame him, in his place I might have went after me too. I'm fine with him wanting revenge, because I understand that. But all this "Look at me, I'm so deep, you're a fool, why couldn't you know the outcome to actions no one knew about? You not knowing is a choice. Which you made, cause you svck, and your flag is lame. Gonna burn it. That'll fix everything!" The Think Tank is more sane then this fruit loop.

But if Useless was meant to come across as a crazy lunatic seeking revenge while lying to himself and others about it, trying to cover his hate and anger up with empty words in the hope to at least in his mind keep his sanity, then he nailed it. Was great.

10/10 I would play again.

Just a bit of my thoughts on that.

EDIT: Anyone wondering why I typed Useless instead of Ulysses, it's because if I don't like a character/person I mispronounce their name. I don't like them so I don't feel like I should put in the effort, so I go with word or words that either sound the same or are kinda in the same ball park.
