Would Geddy have reacted differently in Advent if I hadn't dropped him off a cliff?
During the attack on Advent, Otus rescues a prisoner with a broken leg. At first Geddy suggests that Otus should carry her to safety. However, in my playthrough Geddy quickly changed his mind...
Geddy: Otus, maybe you can carry her to safety?
Anne: Carry me? What if he drops me?
Alphonse: Hahaha! Otus would never do such a thing! Isn't that right, Master Geddy?
Geddy: ... panicked HAHAHA! NEVER! *runs away screaming*
...back in Vellie, I might have accidentally dropped Geddy off the cliff a few dozen times. I suspect this may have had something to do with his panicked reaction.
Would Geddy have reacted differently in Advent if I hadn't dropped him?
Solution 1:
Yes, Geddy's dialogue in Advent will change based on how many times you've injured him. Your save file has a GeddyAbuse counter that is incremented if you:
- Drop Geddy from a high distance.
- (Amusingly, dropping Geddy off the cliff in Vellie does not count)
- Throw Geddy into a wall.
- Attack Geddy with a spin.
- Spin while holding Geddy, before getting the teleporter upgrade.
To test Geddy's reactions, I played through the game until Advent and made a backup of my save before rescuing Anne.
GEDDY: Otus, maybe you can carry her to safety?
ALPHONSE: Master Geddy, that's a great idea!
PRISONER: Carry me? What if he drops me?
ALPHONSE: Hahaha! Otus would never do such a thing!
ALPHONSE: Isn't that right, Master Geddy?

GEDDY: (Cowering) ...I'm not sure this is a good idea.
Geddy was injured 51 times or more
(Pause)
GEDDY: Hahaha! Never!
GEDDY: HAHAHAHAHA! O-Of COURSE not!
GEDDY (Running away): AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!
(Otis stares wide-eyed in disbelief)
