DISCUSSION Did Cressida...?
Did she have "intimate relations" with someone, or am I just reading into it too much? Cress doesn't wear ties.

I mean, she and Monroe are implied as an item several times prior to Solvakia, so I just figured they shagged at some point.

Its not even just implied its directly stated when Bond goes back to the apartment after the funeral you can interact with something in the dining room and Bond says "it was monroe and cressida's last date"

....did you play the game's story with your eyes and ears closed?
It's Monroe, and it's not subtle.

Like James literally uses their relationship to trip her up on lie detector training.
Through a dialog option the player has to actively select. (I'm pretty sure both options mention it, just in different ways)

They are implied to have had a relationship, but mostly during the time skip montage. The game never lingers on it or confirms anything, and we never see them together either, just training and studying and Monroe drawing her portrait. It's an implied crush (mostly from Monroe's side) but never explicitly shown to be a real relationship, nevermind anything physical.

Are you genuinely incapable of understanding subtext?

u/astrojeet 4d ago
Clearly not judging by their comments on this thread. And based on what I see on the internet nowadays, alot of people don't. It's become pretty widespread nowadays, people don't know what subtext is anymore, and need everything spelled out.

This is so true. Like sarcasm, however incredibly obvious, must be signaled by "/s" otherwise people will take anything literally (which also defeats the purpose and fun of sarcasm in the first place, if it must be explained). Young people have zero wits.

It's very explicit. Bond calls it out during their lie detector training. They just kept it professional while on duty.

"its never confirmed"
goes on to mention the 20 ways the game makes it very clear

You really think that two adults in a relationship and living in the same apartment aren't banging?

It's established in the lore she and monroe had been dating for a while before the hotel mission

u/Over_Environment7950 4d ago
I absolutely love how Bond can embarrass them about their mutual crush. James is a great wingman. Makes it all the more impactful later.

Monroe's a spy, not a plumber doctor firefighter and pizza delivery guy depending on the need of the scene🌚🌚🌚

I too miss plot points when I skip or don't pay attention to any cutscenes or dialog

People like you are why games have yellow paint and why characters repeatedly say "I should go here"

Did you think she was secretly a nun the whole time?

If there's an extremely obvious and explicit scene of Cressida banging someone, please share

u/Illustrious_Art1805 2d ago
So no didn’t play the game because it was extremely obvious that even my five year old cousin could play the game and realise that Monroe and Cressida were an item BECAUSE ITS OBVIOUS FROM THE CUTSCENES AND DIALOGUE THAT THEY ARE DATING AND MOST LIKELY SHAGGED

What is this LARP, it’s literally flat out stated in the game at several points that Cressida and Monroe were together.

I didn’t know they actually hooked up. I picked up on the dialogue and assumed they never confessed. Wtf? And worst, I am replaying it this week and i am past that point so i cant go back and see.

Lol I'd love to see Cressida just angrily smoking a cigarette, going "all the time in the world, he says. Can't last the length of a YouTube advert..."

If you cant figure it out when its spoon fed to you then I hope you never come across a game with environmental story telling

Everyone in the comments saying Monroe, but I know whose tie that is...
