Sleeping Dogs 2 (2016 Video Game)

Sleeping Dogs 2 is a 2016 action-adventure video game developed and published by Square Enix. After United Front Games shut down, Square Enix took up the mantle and decided to make this game. Despite the low sales of the 2012 game, Sleeping Dogs scored very positive reviews. This game will be released on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC on October 2, 2016. The game continues with Wei Shen, the undercover HKPD cop from the first game.

WARNING
'''This is obviously made up. I played through Sleeping Dogs  just recently (February - March 2020) and am extremely disappointed in myself for not playing the game earlier. It's a fantastic game and I wanted to share where I would have gone for a sequel. Please do not edit without my consent. My user is Hasamu Jenkins. Thank you!'''

Gameplay & Plot Dynamics

 * Every feature from the first game is brought back.
 * The game features the return of Wei Shen, the undercover agent from the last game.
 * The story takes place just two (2) years after the events of the last game.
 * The dating feature is expanded upon this time: Wei can go on multiple dates with multiple women. Amanda returns from the last game. Like the last game, the girlfriends do not impact the main story. When going on dates, the player has the option to choose what to do. There are multiple activities to partake in this time around: karaoke, eating out, drinking out, movies, live performances, crazy driving, parkour, and once you get close enough to a girl, the player has the option to take the girl back home to sleep with.
 * The Cop Skill Tree and the Triad Skill Tree return: there are twenty (20) upgrades per skill tree this time, making the combat and shooting way more enhanced and engaging.
 * The Melee Training Skill Tree returns with twenty (20) upgrades this time, making the combat more enhanced and fun.
 * The Melee skills are earned through special combo moves and perfect fights
 * Perfect fights = not failing counters
 * All of the skills from the first game return, so all of the sixty (60) skills and upgrades in this game are completely new and unseen mechanics.
 * The map includes the return of Hong Kong, including North Point, Central, Aberdeen, and Kennedy Town. Kowloon, Kowloon City District, and Tsuen Wan are included, making it so that Hong Kong feels much larger. Square Enix hired Hong Kong experts from China to map the game and expands North Point, Central, Aberdeen, and Kennedy Town, making the game feel as accurate to real life as possible. The game's map is approximately three times (3x) bigger than the last game's map.
 * Hong Kong International Airport and the Hong Kong Children's Fair (inspired by Hong Kong Disneyland) are also included on the map.
 * Side content, such as favors, jobs, and races, return with much more side content to partake in.
 * Replayable missions return, helping you make the most out of your experience.
 * If you do not reach max Triad XP or max Cop XP by the end, random events will pop up. Triad events will be marked as red question marks and Cop events will be marked as blue question marks. You can do both of them to increase your XP. They appear throughout the game, including the endgame.
 * During the second act of the game, helicopters are made available to control.
 * With the addition of helicopters, the player can reach the rooftops of Hong Kong, making the parkour much more fun.
 * During high-level Cop events and case missions, Wei has the ability to call cops to back him up. This is not available for main story missions and cops can only be called if the player is having a hard time beating an event or getting through a case.
 * The game's tone is very dark and mature: the story deals with themes such as betrayal, violence, depression, and crime.
 * To make it so that the story is more organized, Square Enix divided the story into three (3) acts.
 * Enemies are much faster in melee combat and much more accurate in shooting combat after complaints that the last game was a too easy in difficulty.
 * There are now five enemy factions to fight in this game: Sun On Yee triads, police officers, 18k triads, Blue Dragon Union triads, and Asian Krips.
 * Martial Arts Clubs are in every single borough and district and there are now two (2) options: the regular rounds and the unlimited rounds. The regular rounds are the same from the last game and the unlimited rounds are rounds that get harder and harder each time with more enemies. The more you do of unlimited rounds, the higher chance you have at receiving new outfits, other dress accessories, money, and vehicles.

Plot
Two years after the death of Big Smile Lee, Wei has stayed in Hong Kong to continue his undercover work: he is both the leader of the Water Street Gang and an undercover cop. Wei still suffers from the pain that has come with losing Jackie and still blames himself every single day for the death of his close friend. Wei's conflicts arise when the 18k grow more powerful throughout Hong Kong and the rise of the Blue Dragon Union make things difficult for both Sun On Yee and the 18k. Things get heated when a three-way war ensues between the main Triad organizations and Wei's identity is put at risk every single day. Overcoming depression and betrayal, Wei must brace himself for the war and conflict that is to come.

Act 1

 * 1) Wei, Conroy, and Duke hunt down the remaining members of the Jade Gang under the orders of Broken Nose Jiang; the Jade Gang have been roaming Hong Kong for two years and can no longer be considered Sun On Yee. Wei successfully kills every single Jade Gang member around Hong Kong. Wei meets with Broken Nose Jiang and it is revealed that her relationship with Wei is a little strange: Wei knows that Jiang knows something. Jiang introduces Wei to Kenneth Wang, who is a newly appointed Red Pole for the Sun On Yee. Kenneth is from Shanghai and has had ties with Sun On Yee ever since he was a teenager.
 * 2) Wei shows Kenneth around parts of Hong Kong, including North Point, Central, and the Kowloon City District. During the drive around the region, Wei and Kenneth connect and they both share their life stories and their affiliation with Sun On Yee. After the "tour" is over, Wei goes home and has nightmares about Jackie's death, which he still blames himself for to this day.
 * 3) Wei goes to North Point only to find that Mrs. Chu is retiring and closing down the Golden Koi. Wei bids his farewell to Mrs. Chu, who cries, telling Wei that he is the closest thing she has had to a son ever since Winston's death. After Mrs. Chu leaves, Wei goes to visit Winston and Jackie's graves and pays respect to both of their graves. Wei receives an unexpected call from Inspector Teng, telling him to come to their new headquarters in Kowloon City District. Teng tells Wei that she is concerned with his long ties with Sun On Yee, but Wei convinces her it is for the best. If they want the 18k, which is currently the biggest threat to Hong Kong at the moment, to be eliminated, Wei needs to remain as a Red Pole of the Sun on Yee and the leader of the Water Street Gang. Wei meets with Raymond, who has been promoted to undercover work. Wei and Raymond are a lot closer now and it shows. Raymond can work in the field now and Raymond accompanies Wei, who receives his first case from Teng: there have been reports of identity theft of the lower-class in the slums of Kowloon. While Wei and Raymond roam Kowloon, Wei teaches Raymond a couple of fight moves. Wei and Raymond go ask around Kowloon only to find out that the identity thief is not of Chinese descent. Wei and Raymond report back to Teng.
 * 4) Wei and Raymond use the footprint and fingerprint scanner and go back to the walled slums of Kowloon. They ask around once more and eavesdrop on the civilians to find out the approximate locations of the identity thief. During the investigation and collecting several marks of the thief, the two are attacked by five 18k brutes. After the fight, Wei is cornered by the largest brute. Wei knocks the brute down and the brute reveals that he knows who Wei Shen is. Wei knocks the brute cold and Raymond expresses his concern with that 18k thug knowing who Wei actually is. Nevertheless, Wei and Raymond continue their mission and go back to the HKPD station in Central for a debriefing. Wei and Raymond decrypt the fingerprints and footprints and find out that the identity thief is Micah Morgan, an American soldier who went on vacation to Hong Kong and could not afford a trip back so he is stealing several persons' identities in Kowloon to make up for that.
 * 5)  Wei and Raymond cannot find where Micah Morgan is currently staying in Hong Kong, but Hong Kong Police has several surveillance cameras around Kowloon and Kowloon City District, as those two areas are crime-ridden with 18k activity. Through the use of surveillance, Wei finds out that Micah has had sexual affairs with half a dozen women in Kowloon. Wei and Raymond go to the latest woman that Micah has had sexual affairs with. Wei and Raymond find Micah in Old Prosperity Projects, the neighborhood in Kowloon where Wei grew up with Mimi, Winston, Jackie, and Dogeyes. Micah is extremely tough and military-trained. Raymond is knocked out, but Wei chases Micah down through the slums. While doing so, Wei has flashbacks of his childhood at Old Prosperity and losing Mimi, weakening him while he chases down Micah. Wei catches up to Micah and beats the shit out of him. Wei takes Micah under custody and to the police station in Central. Wei calls Raymond and asks him about his wellbeing; Raymond is currently at the hospital and Wei thanks Raymond for helping him on the case. Teng closes the case and thanks Wei, as the civilians of Kowloon are now in favor of him (Case 1 closed).
 * 6)  Wei receives a call from Old Salty Crab, who informs him that Ricky and Vivienne have returned from their honeymoon. Wei has not talked to either of them in at least a year, but Wei and Old Salty Crab go to the Hong Kong International Airport to pick up Ricky and Vivienne. Wei has a reunion with them and during the car ride to Club Bam Bam, Wei catches up with the three: they talk about Ricky and Vivienne's marriage, Wei finally getting adjusted into the Hong Kong life, and Kowloon. When the party arrives at Club Bam Bam, Wei meets Jiang and Pockmark, who has officially been appointed the main advisor for Jiang. The meeting consists of Wei, Jiang, Pockmark, Ricky, Vivienne, Old Salty Crab, and Kenneth. Jiang announces Ricky's new role as a Sun On Yee Red Pole and introduces Kenneth to Ricky and Vivienne. With Kenneth now as a Red Pole, Jiang also introduces the team to Kathy Zhao, a newly elected Red Pole. Wei does not like this and asks Jiang if she is just making anybody a Red Pole now. Jiang retaliates and tells Wei not to talk like that to the Dragon Head. Wei apologizes. Jiang continues to explain to the organization that the Sun On Yee now have control of North Point, Central, Aberdeen, and Kennedy Town. Kowloon, Kowloon City District, Tsuen Wan, the area surrounding the HKIA, and the area surrounding the Hong Kong Children's Fair are all completely dominated by 18k. Jiang gives permission to all the Red Poles to eliminate the 18k. 18k is threatening their power and is growing stronger everyday. Jiang hopes to find out who the head chairman of the 18k is. After this discussion amongst the organization, the meeting ends.
 * 7)  After that major meeting with Jiang, Wei meets with Conroy and Duke at the Night Market. Conroy and Duke heard about Mrs. Chu's retirement and the two wonder where the Water Street Gang can base their operations off of now that the Golden Koi has shut down. Kenneth comes in, as he is now an associate of the Water Street Gang. Kenneth suggests Tsuen Wan, a bay in the city. Kenneth's house is at one of the highest points in Tsuen Wan and that place can serve as a place of operations of the Water Street Gang. Kenneth drives the gang there and on their way to the bay, they are attacked by 18k, who tailed them upon hearing that Mrs. Chu has closed down the Golden Koi. Wei attempts to shoot off the 18k and get them off their backs, but they just keep coming. Kenneth stops the car and Wei and company fight off the 18k, who have improved a lot in terms of fighting. The 18k are eventually stopped and Wei and company continue on to Tsuen Wan. When the four arrive, Kenneth shows them around their new headquarters and tells them to make themselves at home. Upon their excitement, Conroy warns Wei that 18k may be planning to do something with the former Golden Koi. Wei assures Conroy that he will check that out. Meanwhile, Conroy and Duke make themselves at home in their new home.
 * 8)  Wei goes back to the Golden Koi and finds the 18k there. Furious, Wei fights the 18k off and encounters Kevin Wong, an 18k brute who is twice Wei's size. Wei fights Kevin only to lose and escapes the Golden Koi. After Wei escapes the Golden Koi, Wei drives around North Point only to find out that the 18k is having a power struggle with the Water Street Gang around the area. Wei helps the Water Street Gang fight off the 18k in the Night Market and the other surrounding areas. Wei is met by Jiu-Lin, a Water Street member. Jiu-Lin expresses his concern about 18k taking over North Point, as their power is growing exponentially throughout Hong Kong. Wei tells Lin that he will not let that happen.
 * 9)  Wei reports to Jiang, who he reminds that 18k is all over North Point now that Mrs. Chu is retired. Jiang orders Wei to help the Water Street Boys as much as he can and reminds Wei that North Point has been the pivotal area for Sun On Yee for over fifty years. Jiang gives Wei a electronic map that maps out 18k territory and Sun On Yee territory. The map updates every time 18k or Sun On Yee makes a move. Wei brings the map over to Kenneth's penthouse and the two realize that tonight is Friday night; Friday nights are usually nights where 18k go all over Kowloon and intimidate the locals. Wei and Kenneth head to Kowloon and intimidate the 18k, eventually going to the Vietnamese Karaoke Club to confront the 18k, who has the club in lockdown. Once Wei and Kenneth successfully intimidate the 18k, Wei warns 18k to stay the fuck out of North Point, but the 18k thugs show no fear. Wei is frustrated and although being tough himself, Kenneth tries to calm down Wei. Wei goes on about how North Point is important to the Sun On Yee and Kenneth understands, but tells Wei to man up and that things like this should not get to him personally. Wei reluctantly agrees. Wei tells Kenneth that their target should be Kevin Wong; Wei explains that he is the brute that beat Wei up at the Golden Koi. Kenneth is surprised, as anyone who is a match for Wei is obviously dangerous. Wei and Kenneth escape Kowloon and return to the penthouse.
 * 10)  Wei picks up Raymond from the Central Hospital and on the car ride to Raymond's apartment in Central, Wei and Raymond talk about Kevin Wong, the so-called head brute of the 18k. After Wei drops Raymond off at his house, Wei goes to Kenneth's penthouse to talk about next steps. Wei and Kenneth use that electronic map in which Jiang gave Wei and use it to map out every 18k job in the region. The 18k are selling ancient relics in Kowloon's Temple Street Night Market. The relics are being sold for prices way over their range. Wei, Kenneth, Conroy, and Duke go brawl out at the Temple Street with the 18k and take the relics for themselves to sell in the black market. The gang goes back to the penthouse and calculates the prices of the relics. Wei makes a shit ton of money out of this.
 * 11)  Wei and Kenneth go to Kowloon and find out that the 18k's strength in that territory is weakening. Wei and Kenneth fight off the 18k with the help of other Water Street Boys, including Conroy and Duke. The Water Street Boys successfully take over Temple Street and the rest of Kowloon, making Kowloon officially the territory of the Sun On Yee. Upon this victory and Wei and Kenneth going out to the city of Tsuen Wan for drinks, Wei receives a text from Pockmark, telling Wei to meet with him and Jiang at Club Bam Bam.
 * 12)  Wei meets with Teng in Kowloon City District and Wei debriefs on his encounter with Kevin Wong, the 18k nearly taking over North Point, and Sun On Yee now having complete control over Kowloon slums and surrounding neighborhoods. Teng opens a case up for Kevin Wong. Later on, Wei goes to meet with Jiang and Pockmark at Club Bam Bam. Ricky and Kathy are there as well. Jiang congratulates Wei on taking over Kowloon for the Sun On Yee, but North Point is still in danger. Jiang gives Wei a tip that 18k has a supply of katanas and other melee weapons in a warehouse in Tsuen Wan. Wei, accompanied by Ricky, goes to the warehouse in Tsuen Wan and fights off the 18k to steal the katanas and other melee weapons. Since Ricky does not know how to fist-fight, Ricky has a sniper rifle and covers Wei from any dangers out of his control. After successfully stealing the katanas and bringing them back to Club Bam Bam, Jiang tells Wei that they are one-step ahead of 18k now. As Wei leaves Club Bam Bam, he notices Pockmark looking at him funny. Wei thinks nothing of this, but Pockmark stares him down until he leaves the club.
 * 13)  Wei gets a call from Ricky, who tells Wei to meet him at Ricky's apartment in Central. Ricky asks Wei if he knows anything about Kathy other than the fact that she is now a Red Pole. Wei does not know anything, but Ricky reveals that he does not trust Kathy; she just shows up out of nowhere and it was not until she arrived that 18k started taking over North Point. Ricky and Wei agree that they will both keep an eye on her. Wei, without telling Ricky, decides to go to Club Bam Bam, as that is where Kathy is hanging out a lot now that she is a Red Pole. Wei dresses up as a casual civilian with a baseball cap to follow Kathy. Kathy and her boyfriend, Sang Smith, are in karaoke and she whispers something to him after Kathy is done singing her verse. Kathy goes to the back entrance of the club and Wei listens in on a conversation Sang is having. Sang is having a call with Old Salty Crab; Sang is an associate of Sun On Yee. But Wei is confused; Sang is half Japanese and half Caucasian. Why is he here? Wei has to tail Kathy and Sang without being spotted in his car. Wei follows Kathy and Sang to Kathy's hotel room. Wei parkours to their room, which is high above the town of Tsuen Wan. Wei listens in and hears Kathy reporting back to someone; a Mr. Fang. Wei goes out of the hotel and reports back to Ricky of his findings. Ricky is shocked and has no idea who Mr. Fang is. Ricky is questioning whether or not he should let Jiang and the rest of Sun On Yee know about this, as Kathy might be two-faced, but Wei advises him not to. Wei tells Ricky he will look more into this and keep him updated.
 * 14)  Wei meets with Raymond, who tells Wei that even though Raymond has been promoted to undercover work, he does not think he is cut out for that kind of job; Wei is. Raymond, however, gives a communications chip to Wei for Wei to communicate with him on missions and cases they do together; Raymond still can do detective work after all. Wei thanks Raymond and the two go over to HQ to meet Teng. Wei updates Teng on everything so far; he knows that Teng has opened up a case file on Kevin Wong, the 18k brute, but Wei tells Teng about what he has learned of Kathy Zhao and her boyfriend, Sang Smith. Wei tells this to both Teng and Raymond, including the Mr. Fang he heard about from eavesdropping Kathy. Teng expresses concern; why was Wei spying, but that is out of her control since Wei is undercover. Teng opens up another case file on Kathy, but Wei marks the Kevin Wong case as a priority at the moment, since Kathy presents no immediate threat to the Sun On Yee just yet. Wei goes out and Raymond gets on his computer to connect with Wei while he works on this case. Raymond jokes that he will keep the lessons he learned from Wei about fighting. Wei is surprised that Raymond is showing anything other than seriousness, but focuses on the task at hand: Wei goes to Tsuen Wan, the area with the highest number of 18k members. Wei goes around and beats up a bunch of 18k members around the sprawling and busy town to ask about Wong. 18k are so loyal to Wong that they will not spill his location. The 18k, however, do reveal to Wei that Wong is super rich and lives on the wealthier side of Tsuen Wan; he has a garage with at least six cars. 18k will not tell Wei where that is. Wei defeats the last number of 18k who want to challenge him and then he updates Raymond about his findings. Raymond uses his detective skills to find out that 18k has a gun and car deal sometime later in the docks of Tsuen Wan where Wong is supposed to appear.
 * 15)  Wei traces the call of an 18k member and attempts to find the deal happening in Tsuen Wan docks. Wei eventually tracks down where the deal is and sneaks in before making an attack. Wei waits for Wong to arrive, but he does not; his wingman does. When the wingman leaves with the ARs and the Bugatti, Wei attacks the 18k members and steals one of their luxury cars to go track down the wingman. The wingman lives in northern Tsuen Wan in a low-end apartment. Wei fights through the wingman's armed 18k members and complex workers, who are also 18k. When Wei catches the wingman, he brings the wingman out to the balcony to intimidate him into telling Wei where Wong lives. The wingman says nothing until Wei holds him upside down and threatens to drop him if he does not tell Wei where Wong lives. The wingman gives Wei the address of the house and Wei drops the wingman down, killing him. Wei updates Raymond and Teng, who both yell at Wei for using such extremely lethal force. Wei convinces them that the 18k are ruthless and a small argument occurs between the three.
 * 16)  Wei updates Raymond, telling him that he is going to Wong's house and stealing one of Wong's luxury cars to lure him out. Wei arrives at the house and steals a luxury car. Furious, Wong goes into one of his luxury cars and chases down Wei. Wei must lure Wong to a secluded location. Once he does, Wei and Wong brawl. Being a very difficult fight, Wei eventually outsmarts Wong and has him beat. Wei demands Wong tell him who the head chairman of the 18k is. Wong is about to spill the beans until a shadowy figure from afar shoots Wong with a crossbow, killing him. Wei is shocked and takes the arrow and follows the shadowy figure, only to lose him. Wei brings the arrow back to HQ for Raymond and Teng. The arrow has an 18k insignia on it, but who was the shadowy figure? The three speculate, but they all come to the conclusion that speculations mean nothing. The case file for Kevin Wong is closed, but the chairman for 18k is still out there. Raymond warns Wei to keep an eye out for the figure. Wei tells Teng to rest for the day, which surprises Teng. Teng has done a lot for the HKPD and Wei offers to take her out to dinner in the Kowloon City District. Teng blushes and asks if Wei is asking her out on a date; he is not. He's just being a good friend and a good work colleague. Wei takes Teng out to eat and at first, the two talk about the unopened case file for Kathy, but Wei changes the subject and the two get to know each other more on a personal level. They have been work buddies for three years, but Wei does not know much about her besides the fact that she is still caring for her elderly father. They talk for hours while eating and Teng eventually asks Wei why he really decided to stay in the Sun On Yee. He reveals that after the power vacuum that Big Smile Lee left, 18k has grown more powerful and he wants to rid the streets of 18k. After the dinner, Wei takes Teng home and Teng admits that she had a really good time, calling Wei "Officer Shen". Wei tells her to call him Wei and she agrees, as long as Wei promises to call her "Jane". He agrees (Case 2 closed).
 * 17)  Wei goes to Kenneth's penthouse and
