How to save the trapped worker in The Callisto Protocol

From PCGamesN: "If you have tried to save the trapped worker in The Callisto Protocol but failed, you may be wondering if there is a way to alter his fate

Want to save the trapped worker in The Callisto Protocol? Unless you’re a complete and utter monster like the savage beasts constantly attacking you, this worker’s request for help will likely resonate with a drive to preserve human life and rescue him from his predicament.

In survival horror games, friendly faces are hard to come by but generally speaking, when you find them, they come in one of two camps: either they give you something helpful or accompany you for a short time. Thankfully, there are no escort missions here. So, naturally, you now have an additional incentive to save the trapped worker in The Callisto Protocol."

Ok, this article was an utter waste of my time.

You go through paragraphs of bull sh*t only to find out, NO, you can’t save him.

This is the epitome of click bait. Learn from my mistake and don’t waste your time.

ModsDoBetter878d ago

Agreed, utterly pointless article filled with drivel explaining a scripted event that has to happen in order to progress through the area.

TheEnigma313878d ago

blame the people who approved it. I always wonder how some of these articles make it through.

anast878d ago (Edited 878d ago )

Yeah, I wouldn't consume this websites content, it's low-shelf.

jdoe878d ago

LMAO literally the lowest rock-bottom gaming clickbait trash. The whole website should be banned forever from N4G, posting such links is embarrassing.

Eh. Finally played Callisto Protocol via Gamepass. It was fine, but didn't feel like playing more than a couple hours in. I'll still grab it for free though. Have yet to purchase anything from the EPIC store, but still have over 20 games in my library.

Jingsing251d ago

Maybe it would be smarter to just play the free stuff on Epic rather than pay for a Microsoft rental service that gets removed from your library.

darthv72252d ago

Well thanks for that one Epic. Happy to add CP to the library.

blackblades251d ago

I have a lot in my library just need a handheld pc.

N4GTG251d ago

I have over 450 games in my Epic library and haven't purchased anything from Epic. Ever.

phatak251d ago (Edited 251d ago )

honestly even tho I still prefer steam, over the last 4 years I always collected the weekly epic games, and now suddenly when you look at your library one day you realize you picked up around 400 free games a good portion of which are AAA, big win, and with gog, amazon prime, crazy powerful gpu's like 4090, windows 11 being way better than the dark days of windows 8 there has never been a better time to be a pc gamer, this is simply the best time for pc gaming fhat I can remember.

blackblades251d ago

Basically epic for the free games, steam for the deals and both for the free of charge online play amongst other things.

What is everyone's guess on the Next Xbox I'd like to know.
I really think it'll be a PC Console that's open to all Game Stores. I think there will be more than one version aswell including a high end expensive one.
It looks like it's the only way out for Microsoft but an interesting one too..

Game had so many problems - bad frame-rate was #1 problem

BeRich233266d ago

I played it a year later after release on series x and there wasn't any problems, although that is a problem lol

ROCKY28266d ago

cool - I will redownload and give the game another chance :)
thx

Inverno266d ago

All too common for games to have ridiculously long dev cycles and have so much cut. Also too common for newer IPs to have their dev cycle cut short and be forced out before they're anywhere near a complete state. We're playing incomplete games either way cept some get good scores others are thrown to the wolves. 70 dollar standard be doin fine work this gen.

DivineHand125266d ago

I blame this issue on poor project management and directors.

Inverno265d ago

There's that, but these companies know they can hook people with early previews. Show proof of concept with a nice cinematic CG trailer and then show some gameplay with pretty graphics and then push out an incomplete product. Your modern consumer is overprotective about products they know nothing about, they will buy things without much thought.

anast265d ago

It's 100% a management issue from the top-down.

Green-Smurf266d ago

So much can be added but it was decent. Needs a sequel

mastershredder266d ago (Edited 266d ago )

Game was a already-done-before regurgitated mess. More content was not going to save it. Stepped off on the wrong foot altogether. Even free, it goes unplayed.

DivineHand125266d ago

There are points in the game that felt like it was drawn out so if content was cut then it was probably for the better.

The Callisto Protocol 2 Plans Discussed by Director; Mentions Cut Enemies, How They Wanted More Time

The Callsto Protocol 2 plans shared by Glen Schofield, as he also confirms they had to cut enemies and bosses in the first game.

XiNatsuDragnel267d ago

Callisto protocol 2 should use those cut features

excaliburps267d ago

We're never seeing a sequel unless Krafton greenlights it which I highly doubt.

-Foxtrot267d ago

Why? The DLC pretty much wrapped everything up and was awful.

Especially what they did to Jacob over making a sequel which could have gave him better character development.

Toecutter00267d ago (Edited 267d ago )

Callisto Protocol is an extremely underrated game (after the updates). Krafton, however, made a mistake by looking to overmonetize a single player game by cutting out content and selling it as dlc. Paying for extra death animations was scummy. And you can't get away with that crap with a new IP. Save it the sequel or, better yet, don't do it at all. Survival horror is a crowded market.

thesoftware730267d ago

I agree, I played and enjoyed the game very much.

Paying for death animations was a ridiculous proposition from the start, and was destined to fail.

Azfargh266d ago

I still play from time to time, kept installed on my pc and even some mods (dlss mod and some INI config optimizations) improved even more the experience. It is still an fun experience and the graphics and animations helps me want to go back even more... Yeah, paying for death animations: what they were thinking?

amazing horror game and unbelievable graphics, really happy that a sequel is being discussed.
