Thinking about Squadron 42 replayability value, will the choices open entirely different paths with completely different missions?asked by Kraken

We're going to see branching missions for sure. In fact, that was one of the stretch goals. As you were saying, a lot of people played through the original games without going and playing the losing missions or the mid-range missions. There's going to be some cool stuff in there. But don't expect an entirely separate path that just goes off forever in a different direction. We wanted the dialogue to be tight, the storyline to be tight. So it'll do small branches, but not necessarily vast branches.
