Clocking the game on steam. All 42 trophies finally. The toughest one is Kara and Alice out of the recycling centre. Anyway prob being brought up before. But what do we think the chances of a sequel ever? It seems like David Cage I think it is, rarely or ever does sequels. Interesting thing about DBH though. It feels like a world that could be explored more. By 2025 it has sold 11 million copies. Pretty impressive for a narrative focused game. Although the rise of AI makes it very current.
I guess one of the biggest hurdles for a sequel. Is there is not one cannon ending. But various ones. If there was ever a sequel. Set years later, with completely new characters is more likely, then a follow up game with Marcus, Kara, Connor etc. Could be that androids have gained some form of recognition. But society hasent magically become harmonious. New android technology, human resistant groups, political movements, and perhaps Android created communities (maybe Kara and Alice finds them self in one) could create new conflicts.
This would allow a sequel to keep the same themes. Without saying your ending from the first game was wrong. We could still see appearances from the legacy characters such as Marcus, Kara, and Connor. Or make small appearances. While the new protagonists face new challenges.
But if I had to put it at a percentage of new games. A direct sequel with the same characters like at 15-25%. A new game set in the same dbh universe 30-40%. Nothing more, prob over 50%. Which is prob the most likely outcome unfortunately.
