Yeah, every hub's side missions are contained to that time period in that hub. But the alternate answer is "no, not if you give a shit about your time". I finished my first and only playthrough at 50 hours having hacked everything, judo chopped almost everyone, and getting ghost xp often (although not, of course, the bullshit achievement). The whole last third of the game was me trying to figure out what to do with praxis I no longer wanted to invest because I had every skill that could conceivably be useful (speaking of which, the rebreather, concussion resistance, and the electric resistance were handier than I thought if you are comfortable with grenading yourself as a means of dealing with close quarters enemies).
I missed one side mission, on account of having killed the necessary ingredients before finding it. In retrospect, I wish I had missed a few more. So I guess what I'm getting at is only do sidequests if you are starving for xp or are genuinely interested in what they offer, but if you are looking for an Alpha Protocol "this will matter later" kind of thing, it's a dead end most of the time. |
