Let's Play Ashes: Afterglow Ep.18 Reunited At Last
28On the eighteenth episode of Let's Play Ashes: Afterglow, the Scav takes the Baron up on his invitation, and we step into Uptown to deliver the seeds and have a word with the man. Before we have a chat with the leader of Prosperity, I investigate the trailer sitting on top of a mound of trash smack in the middle of this "upper class district".

In his spare time he sits around playing old video games, and he happens to be very interested in the copy of "Homesick Alien" we found near Smiley's fake stash.

Despite his reputation among the townsfolk, the Baron doesn't seem to be a particularly malicious or avaricious man. The reason for the water rations is simply that the town doesn't have a reliable food supply, and water has a low trade value (somehow), so a lot of it has to be traded out to keep the town from starving. He wants us to remove the Roamers as a threat to the town by planting bombs in their ammunition stores and fuel depots, after waiting for the mutant horde to move on. We don't wait yet, but this turns out to cause a rather nasty bug where the Junkyard is already exploded when I return and the Roamers have become hostile. So, in order to retrieve my bike I have to kill my way across the entire compound, and when we finally locate it we discover there's been some modifications made...
