This quest makes me want to quit the game. It is frustrating, not because of difficult boss fights, but because of how convoluted it is. This makes the Water Temple in Ocarina of Time easy to navigate by comparison., and that is the single most convoluted, frustrating dungeon design ever. What is with the stupid glitch directing me to a garage door that does nothing? The fight against the giant mech in dogtown was less annoying.
It might just have been a happy accident, but I think that it's designed that way to give the player a feel for Delamain's confusion, as a context for the decision the player has to make next regarding Delemain's future. It's a conflict between the old world order that he was created to conform to, and the ambiguous new world order that he's poised to evolve into if the player permits it. That should be a cognitively messy mission.
Ho ho ho, do get me started.
Last weekend I was replaying it. After I cleared the seven cars, I expected to have some phone chat and then to get invited by Del to fix the situation.
Instead, the game had reset the quest to capturing the first Del's car, except all the cars were already GONE from the world.
I had to find a save from before I started the quest. Excessively stupid the quest engine lets that ever happen.
