Should You Save Hal Or Ann In Freedom Wars Remastered?
Soon afterreaching CODE Level 2 Clearance, you will encounter a brother and sister, Hal and Ann, who are both Sinners. These two appear multiple times in the main story and can also be used as Comrades during Basic Operations. Upon advancing to yourLevel 5 Cell, you will be notified that Natalia wants to speak with you. She will assign you and a few other Sinners an Operation to assist a designated Platoon by taking down enemy forces. During this event, Carlos will mention that Hal is with the 15th Platoon, while Ann is with the 16th Platoon.
This marks the first time in the game where you will need to make a critical choice.Whichever Platoon you decide not to assist will be ambushed, resulting in the sibling’s death alongside their respective Platoon. The rewards for the 1, 2, and 5-star tiers of both missions differ, meaning you will miss out on those for the mission you don’t choose. However, the real consequence lies in losing either Hal or Ann for the remainder of the game. Whilethis decision does not change the story’s overall outcome, you will see a unique scene involving the surviving sibling mourning the loss of the other.
The choice ultimately becomes a moral one, butfrom an optimal perspective, saving Ann is the better decision.
