Let’s Play: Rise of the Dragon
Game just got released on gog this week so I thought it might a good time to try. Screenshots always looked very good but don’t know much about it - info on gog makes it very interesting.
It’s 2053 and William ‘Blade’ Hunter must work the Los Angeles shadows to find out who’s behind the horrible murder of the mayor’s daughter. Rumor has it, a new drug is taking over the streets of this already beaten down city and death is only a point and a click away.
Both the game’s cyberpunk stylings and choice-driven gameplay were quite ahead of its time - an attitude that Hunter himself must adopt if he’s to solve this labyrinthine case.
I booted it up, the intro is very stylish, didn’t know there was FMV in it. Environment also cool.
There’s a comic (along with the manual) in gog documentation, only read the beginning since it seemed like it follows the same story as the game.
Blade Hunter hmmm
Blade Hunter hmmm
Blade runner + replicant hunter = Blade Hunter 
Yeah, not the most subtle of references , but I’m liking the cyberpunk world
I played it a loooong time ago. It was good.

Never played it before. Haven’t finished it yet. Ancient, but good. Really nice art style. Not hard, although I spent ages in the sewer pixelhunting to get the wires just right.
Got to love this kind of screen. 
I like the humor too.
And an absolutely wonderful girlfriend… 
See you around, wolf. Nerissa
Finished. Hated the shooting and jumping. Those action scenes looked pretty silly anyway. The plot has some big holes in it IMNVHO, so in the end it was a nice but disappointing game for me.
One thing I always like: Those oldfashioned MEANWHILE… scenes.
See you around, wolf. Nerissa
I’ve been slowing making progress, I’m at a point not long after that gruesome death, didn’t solve much of puzzles so that, along with that real-time, make me wonder if ‘m walking to a deadend… The style is really gorgeous.
Took a screenshot a moment after Blade is such a romantic 
Another screenshots, most of my time was spent at the club
And another from the date

Yeah, those were nice.

I sure died a lot, but I don’t know if there are any deadends. I think it’s more likely that you missed something and the game doesn’t progress anymore. The real-time thing is fairly useless if you ask me. Your girlfriend keeps office hours, but as far as I can tell everything else remains the same. You could try moving time forward in the inventory screen to the next day (save first ) and see what happens.

Didn’t know about that forward time… 
Going to try that since I have no idea what I should doing at this day. Gave the drug for analysis to the girlfriend and the weird guy translated the ancient chinese paper.
Yeah, you didn’t do something you should have done. It will instantly help you make progress. If you want a hint, holler.

Yes, a hint please. I think I need to look into those eyepatch guys but only one I’ve seen is at the club but doesn’t talk to me. Nobody wants to talk except The Jake. Also can’t get into the police station. Hollywood Reservoir showed but can’t do anything there.
Hint: Your girlfriend can check more than just the drug for you.
See you around, wolf. Nerissa
That’s it, made some progress, I was hesitant to give her more stuff after she kept the stone
I’m at the wire under the sewer now.

I didn’t know you could do that. I guess I kept it to keep me safe.

Terrible puzzle. I saved after every wire.
