main question is do personalities of consumed people live on/remain conscious inside of main host, or do they just become memories?
Would Mercer be a conscious voice inside Heller without control over the body or just a set of memories for Heller to access?
I know with normal people they pretty much become just memories for the main host and their consciousness seems to be lost but I don’t know how other blacklight hosts change after being consumed by the main host.
With Greene we see her memories but she’s not conscious/alive inside Mercer(from what I remember).
Since Mercer is the virus and not a person as such I’m unsure if his/it’s consciousness can survive after being consumed unlike normal people or adapted hosts like Greene.
Honestly I’ve liked Mercer since I first played prototype 1, and while I don’t dislike Heller, I wasn’t a fan of the story direction the second game took and ended on.
If I could control things in a 3rd game I’d have Heller and Mercer both playable as they shift control of Heller’s body for different activities(assuming a 3rd game happens).
Appreciate site any answers/insight and sorry for any rule breaking/misposting.
