So What's New With Family Man?
Oh, absolutely *tons*. There's way too much stuff to mention really, but here's a taster:
We reinvented time: Time now stops whenever you talk to people, or end buildings and special areas, allowing you to breathe a lot more
AddedNew charactersThere are loads of new people to talk to (and do dirty deeds for). Check the video below to spot a few!
AddedNew areasNew locations to explore, and new shops and buildings to enter and interact with
AddedNew chores!There are lots of new chores to do around the house! We all love chores
AddedNew jobsThere are new ways to make money, both legally and, well, not so legally
AddedMafia MissionsBruce has new ways to give you missions, including calling you up on the phone. Be afraid!
AdjustedCompletely revamped combatWe changed the way combat works, as it was a bit rubbish before. You now lock on to the person you're brawling with, and have to watch how they move before deciding where to punch them. Pow!
AddedMore ways to affect the worldThere are now lots of new ways to put your mark on the world. You'll be able to completely change the lives of the townspeople around you, in good (and bad) ways
AddedBetter interactions with your familyThere are a ton of new ways to make your family happier (or otherwise)
Loads more stuff, but this list is getting a bit long now
