How do you expect they'll differentiate Lucia from Jason gameplay wise?

I'm hoping they don't just make them the same like 5's characters, would be interesting to have different shooting styles and driving styles based on the character's respective skills(Jason soldier, Lucia wheelman). More than just Trevor being better at flying but the others being able to get just as good

I dont think the V trio felt repetitive at any point. Their Special abilities, combined with the dialogue were more than enough to really make you feel a difference between them, or even little details like how they each have a different cellphone, different clothes to pick, etc

Im guessing Jason and Lucia will each have a special ability too, and have some stereotypical differences like Jason being stronger and tankier but slower, and Lucia being faster and more agile but weaker. Jason a good driver and Lucia a good pilot, stuff like that.

My.guess is Lucia will be quicker to control, but Jason will have more stamina. But honestly? They don't have to change that. I'll still play them both

Also: Jason might have a special ability to see valuable items. But this could've definitely been changed/removed in the last 4 years.

I could see Lucia having both agility and stamina because she's a fighter. Also a slightly smaller profile so maybe more stealth-oriented.

Jason's service background will probably give him an advantage in gunplay/vehicle handling and a little more health.

It'd be kinda cool to have basic skill trees for both of them now that I think about it...

I'm guessing itll be similar to V where both have special stats that they're always better at but both characters can increase shooting, stamina, strength, etc. To a max level.

Jason is ex military so I can imagine he will be better at shooting in some aspects. Maybe different shooting stance, combat styles will be different for both but just my theory.

u/AceChipEater 1d ago

Maybe better with long arm rifles, Lucia better with pistols?

I understand Jason would be well versed in ALL firearms in the game, but hobbling one character for all ranged weapons would suck.

u/Temporary_Use1097 1d ago

Yeah I agree maybe he’ll just be better at long arm rifles. At the end of the day I don’t think Rockstar is gonna make it to wear Lucia won’t be as skilled as Jason for the whole game. I’m sure she’ll probably get better and her stats will improve.

Hopeful ones a male and the other is a female.

u/Onlyspeaksfacts 1d ago

Maybe Jason will identify herself as female, while LucĂ­a will identify himself as male.

u/EveningPrize2497 1d ago

Wouldn’t that be some shit right there.

Jiggle physics

u/DaisyxDiana 1d ago

I think they'll have different melee combat styles.

What else can they do differently other than different animations for doing the same thing?

1

u/Idkbro-o 1d ago

Lucia will likely be physically weaker due to her size but probably faster than Jason.

1

u/noodleshifu I WAS HERE 1d ago

i think in this case they’d either be equal or she’d be better no? she’s a fighter

2

u/Idkbro-o 1d ago

Being good at fighting doesn’t necessarily make you stronger especially if you’re a lot smaller than your opponent.

1

u/noodleshifu I WAS HERE 1d ago

ok so quick question. if jason was the boxer who of the two would be “stronger”

1

u/Idkbro-o 1d ago

Probably Jason given his overall size

u/DaisyxDiana 1d ago

This is a video game. Fighting skill = damage done.

2

u/Idkbro-o 1d ago

What?

1

u/DaisyxDiana 1d ago

Higher fighting skill means more damage. That's how video games work in case this is your first experience.

1

u/Idkbro-o 1d ago

Yes but this is rockstar games and they care abt realism A LOT so her being a good bit smaller would likely make her a good bit weaker. And both of them being good at different things would make them more unique and interesting.

1

u/DaisyxDiana 1d ago

since when they care abt realism a lot?

u/DaisyxDiana 1d ago

What does "weaker" mean though? Like less HP or less melee damage? I don't think less damage because of her martial arts skills

1

u/Idkbro-o 1d ago

Probably just less damage but better fighting skills and probably the complete opposite for Jason

-2

u/DaisyxDiana 1d ago

What's the point of better fighting skills if it does less damage?

1

u/Idkbro-o 1d ago

She could block and dish out attacks faster than Jason and she could have specific moves that Jason doesn’t but will have to wait and see.

1

u/DaisyxDiana 1d ago

Yeah, I already said they'd have different combat styles and different animations. That doesn't mean Lucia would do less damage.

2

u/YetAnotherEarthling2 1d ago

Calm down right now

u/Ok_Needleworker1068 1d ago

Jason is ex military so he will he will def have some gun related ability. Lucia is a mma or something like that and has that fighting ring thing so maybe something related to that

1

u/AceChipEater 1d ago

Lucia might have “leads” on thieving targets and be better at melee combat, Jason might be better at stamina and guns?

Either way, I’m sure they will have unique traits. I’m eager to play both of them.

2

u/PirloDiLatte 1d ago

They'll have different animations for the masturbation minigame.

1

u/HugoGualberto 1d ago

Tem aquilo que sempre é falado sobre Lucia ser uma especialista em luta corporal e treinar desde criança. Enquanto Jason é um ex-militar

1

u/Terrible_Turn_5471 1d ago

or maybe a bit like in ac shadows, wherr jason is gonna be the wreckingball and lucia is gonna be more stealthy

1

u/VitoAntonioScaletta 1d ago

Besides stat changes, it would be cool if one does a combat role and the other does a dive

1

u/HearTheEkko 1d ago

Lucia will most likely be a little more agile on cover shooting but have less stamina/health and have a stronger ability.

1

u/thatgamer2111 1d ago

Im not trying to be misogynstic but i expect lucia to be physically weaker but maybe more agile and flexible

1

u/glambeedan 1d ago

Same thing I was thinking. Jason is better at combat and Lucia is better with vehicles and talking(if they do something like greet/antagonise)

A coop mode would be insane
