@mihndoepayne: Thats what I thought too, the previous games had these too, probably because it makes testing a lot easier, you just go to that room and get all inventory material.
Conan can make all the jokes about "never going outside", but all the same, he's just as childish and clueless as the worst gamers out there. :D And yes, he is very funny.
@nikon133: You mean the capital of the then-biggest colonial empire in the world? It should be a LOT busier, especially on those wide open main streets that seem rather quiet in this game.
@mushywaffle: I don't think the "draw distance" in any heavily polluted city like Victorian London would be that great. Compare this to heavily polluted cities in modern day China, for example.
