Right after the prologue I exit my apartment after a nights sleep. I'm quested to meet the Ripperdoc. My Samurai friend gets in the car. I saved at this point and wandered off. When I got back my friend had left the car and was nowhere to be seen, naturally enough.
In most games of this type you're kind of meant to ignore the main story and just head off. Is this the case here as well? When the NPCs start harassing me, is there something to it, or is it like in other games that it's just for immersive purposes? Can I safely ignore them, or does it have consequences if I do?
Plese don't include spoilers in any replies. I'm looking for generalities only.
