Jason and Lucia using manipulation tactics via their speech 🤔
​
I like many are hoping for a similar system like in RDR2 where you can interact with NPCS, the greet and antagonize system but something more intuitive for GTA 6. I was thinking something a long the lines of another prompt that would be used for manipulating NPCs in order to take advantage of them. Seeing as how we will be playing as a criminal couple that will be working together, they can distract NPCs in gameplay for different reasons. One thing I noticed was that both characters are overly good looking, even with Jason we see women in trailer 2 noticing him. Not uncommon that some women will use their sexuality to distract or lure a man in order to rob or assault them. A prompt for Lucia to grab a guy's attention while Jason is stealing the guys car, pickpocketing them or something similar. Jason being a good looking guy he easily can influence women too.
I'm imagining NPCs will be a little smarter, some maybe that can actually fight and won't be easy to rob. So using brains over brawn might be necessary in certain scenarios. Now the preset lines that Jason and Lucia might use to manipulate NPCs don't need to be only flirtation, can be other forms of distraction but when it comes to women it's more common they will use sex as men definitely fall for that easily. Can be something very simple like saying "hey what's that over there?" And as the NPC turns around to look we bump them on the head and knock them out. Rockstar can add so many different preset lines for both characters to say that could garner different responses from different NPCS. The only option in RDR2 was greet and antagonize, manipulation or another form of interaction would be cool.
If you guys have ideas of how this could work I'd love to hear it.
