Remember Me Is Sounding A Lot Like Inception Mixed With The Matrix

So we all should know that Nilin has the ability to "rework" the memories of pretty much anyone in the game. For some reason she only chooses to do this to a select few for story purposes. In those instances though, she can change the core of a person's beliefs based on what they remember. These changes seem to go much further than "destroy my father's company" to "maybe I should kill myself because I remember killing my wife a few days ago." Kind of a stretch, but that is just based off what we've been shown so it might make sense overall.

Extending off of that, Nilin will also need to pull memories of events, like an NPC laying out mines, so she can have a HUD of where these mines are located so she can sneak by safely. Hopefully this is something that is not a required event but an optional thing. I say that because it would be nice to reward players who want to explore the game's world with a little bonus instead of just having everyone get the bonus.

Well that covers one of the titles, what about the second. That really comes in were they describe the combat as well as how "boss" combat seems to work. Seems that Nilin has forgotten all of her sweet combat training and needs to "regain" the memories and "download" them into her brain. If only it was that way in the real world.

As describe in the video, some "boss" fights will take place in a virtual memory world where you will need to accomplish "something" based on the particular NPC. The fight shown in the video looks more like a straight up brawl in a "loading" world more than anything, but instead of using her newly remembered sweet kicks in the real world, they will be virtually kicking ass and taking names apparently.

Also, way back in March when the story overview cropped up there were creatures that looked like zombies in the world for some reason. These have been better described as "memory junkies," or Leapers, now. Apparently stolen memories act like smoking meth and twist your physical form to something weird. They also grant the ability to track memory hunters hence the reason they don't like Nilin.

Anyway, watch the below clip and if you are feeling saucy comment below. Comment even if you are not feeling saucy.
