Systemic Dialogue | Ghost Recon

Systemic dialogue lines for a military sim set in Bolivia. These barks trigger in response to specific gameplay conditions and must coexist with scripted, questline-related dialogue.

PC – Ghosts systemic dialogue

The Ghosts are members of an elite tactical force within the US army. They specialize in covert operations led outside of the US jurisdiction. In the context of Ghost Recon Wildlands: Last Rites, their opponents belong to a faction operating like a cult; hostiles are masked and the atmosphere is generally more tense and grim than in other Wildlands questlines. The lines needed to reflect that while keeping the Ghosts’ personalities intact.

NPC – Los Penitentes systemic Dialogue

[WIP section] Los Penitentes are followers of La Llorona, Last Rites main antagonist. They come from various backgrounds: some were farmers, others ex-rebels or even ex-cartel or ex-Unidad. La Llorona managed to inspire them all to follow her despite their being enemies in the past. They fight against globalized-capitalism-colonialism, but they’re also deeply indoctrinated. They think their leader came back from the dead to free them and pray to her like she’s a goddess.
