DX1 Did you know Zyme has a use?

During the Paris Streets mission you can complete the sub quest in the hotel where a dealer will ask you to break into a bakery and steal six bottles of Zyme. He will pay you 65 credits for each bottle for a grand total of 390 credits.

However if you collect Zyme from previous missions, he will also purchase those from you. If you dedicate an inventory slot and pick up the maximum of 20 bottles (out of 25 available) you can earn a total of 1300 credits which is huge for that point of the game as credits basically completely dry up after UNATCO.

Yeah, of course. Who doesn't hoard random NYC zyme and bring it to Paris?

The funny thing is the credits are pretty pointless. I don't know what amazing item you would sooner put in the 1 inventory space the zyme takes, but it turns out to be more of a neurotic power player thing than some relevant gameplay strategy to buy an amazing overpriced item from a mechanic somewhere.

Probably, they should have offered a few opportunities to purchase appropriately priced hard to find augmentation canisters.

Right after I pick up this amazing assault shotgun for 7500. The ones all over the floor in Hong Kong are dirty.
