So a few months ago I heard that manhunt 2 was originally supposed to be about a religious fanatic I was wondering if anyone has anymore information on this? Such as when/why the idea got dropped? And was daniel lamb still the main character? Etc

That's a good point, but I personally believe mr.nasty is nobody in the game I think he was meant to not have any part of the actual game other than being behind all the snuff films. Gary Schafer I think was more of a distraction for the snuff films for the public making sure nobody found out about them I could be wrong but if anything I think ramirez was more of starkweathers right hand man over everyone else because hes used to control all the gangs and also at the end of the game starkweather mentions him not anyone else

I saw a beta mod where the painkillers were red and the plastic bag was black and also the lighting in the game was alot darker is this what the game was actually supposed to look like prior to rockstar london picking it up?

Ah, ok wasn't sure because I know it was originally supposed to have way better graphics than what actually came out

Yea I heard there was supposed to be a level where you actually kill Danny's wife not sure where I read that I also stumbled upon an artstation page of guy who did the concept art for manhunt 2 and asked him about the original ideas not sure if he will respond or not but fuck it I saw he does answer questions about rockstar vienna though because a bunch of people were asking him about max Payne 3

Yea I can imagine why a level where you kill your wife and kids would be taken out although that would've pushed boundaries no game ever has or would also never played max payne 3 played 1 and 2 the original max payne is definitely one of my favorites 2 seemed rushed

I'll have to check it out speaking of the rockstar vienna guy I was talking about apparently max payne 3 was supposed to originally take place in russia which would've been more fitting for max payne imo but I still gotta check out max payne 3
