All Saving Quent Outcomes

Add to Watchlist

All saving Quent outcomes

Quent is a supporting character that accompanies you during the Unpaid Tab main mission. See the outcome for saving or losing Quent along with the tips on how to save him by continuing below.

Save Quent Outcome

Dialogue Change

Choice Result and Dialogue
Save Quent Quent lives, bringing relief to the whole group.
"That's right, me boyo. You're safe." - Zane.
Lose Quent Quent dies, causing Zane to blame himself for Quent's death.
"This is my fault. Should never've brought him here. Right selfish."
- Zane.

The main difference between saving and losing Quent is the dialogue change. If you manage to save Quent, Zane, Levaine, and your character will be relieved with the dialogue supporting their mutual feelings.

Losing Quent will play a different dialogue wherein Zane will blame himself for bringing Quent during the Unpaid Tab mission. This fuels their anger more towards Callis, vowing that they will destroy him.

This is by far the most frustrating part of the entire game; awful design, awful quest.

I think it's really poor design to have the room completely lit with the EXACT same color as the "You can destroy this" color. I didn't notice any of the ceiling pipes until well after.
