How Nemesis-style systems scale: reusable rules, content costs, and why WB's patent matters
ccerrato147 · x · 2026-10-23
Concluding a long thread dissecting the Nemesis-style system in a RDR2 mod (enRAGE) and WB's original patent: flexibility comes from reusable rules — change a threshold, relationship, or faction policy and the same machinery yields different stories. Shipping requires voices, animations, missions and persistent state working together, with failure advancing the story. WB's patent complicates imitation, but content and testing costs explain why this isn't everywhere; coding AI can speed up building and testing variants.
