Alex Hartman/Quotes

Hartman's first speech

My name is Alex Hartman.

I was just betrayed by the man who practically built this whole city.

It started with Bergmann, then Stalburg steel, and now my company, all bankrupted by Jeff Walter. He bought the companies for next to nothing and then ran them straight into the ground. But that’s the least of my problems. With the company out of business, there’s no way we can keep everything in good repair. Things are breaking down all over the city, but no one’s doing anything about it. The police, the mayor, and now it seems like even the governor’s in his pocket. They care more about his money than what he’s doing to this place.

Whatever he’s planning, it’s going to happen. And I don’t wanna be here when it does, because there’s one thing I’m sure of – everything’s about to fall apart.

Hartman's Tunnel3 speech

When I founded my company, I was sure that it would be successful. Hammer Valley Dam was a success indeed. But when we started building the Two Gorges dam, problems arose. We didn't have much money and the project was very expensive. I did my best to reduce the cost, but the damage had already been done. Then Stalburg Steel went bankrupt. It was one of my company’s major clients and after it's bankrupt our revenue shrunk to almost nothing.

Eventually, I had no choice but to sell the company. I was about to close the deal with a man who could have been able to save my work, but he backed out at the last minute. My only option then was to sell the company to Jeff Walter – the man whose last two business acquisitions resulted in failure. Of course I had my doubts about Walter, but I figured it would be better than nothing. Little did I know that his actions would lead to such an unsafe living environment and ultimately death of many innocents, including my beloved wife! And now that coward Walter has gone missing and is hiding out there somewhere...

With my family and lifework gone, there's not much left in this World for me. I'm gonna find Walter and make him taste his own medicine.

I. Must. Find him.
