Should you stab Gene in High on Life?
Knifey wants you to ♐stab Gene, but is it a good idea?

If you're wondering whether to stab Gene in High on Life, then it's likely you've been given an instruction by a talking knife and are deciding whether to go through with it or not.

While Knifey outlines a convincing case for taking this action, you have to wonder what the consequences are of following through this morally dubious choice, and would Gene be seriously injured or eveඣn killed if you go ahead with the sಌtabbing?
It goes without saying, but there are some spoilers ahead. However, if you want to know what happens if you stab Genꦓe in High on Life, here’s the answer.
Should you stab Gene in High on Life?
Short answer: stabbing Gene doesn’t kill him. In fact, it doesn’t even anger him, as he’s “lived through worse”. What it does do though, is grant you a secret trophy or achievement: Don’t Hand the Knife that Feeds.
However, it's important to keep in mind that once you hand in the 9 Torg bounty, you can’t stab Gene anymore. The moment when you get home, and Knifey starts pressuring you, really is🍃 the only chance to get the achievement.
What is the High on Life stab Gene choice?
Fairly early on in the game, you meet an ex-bounty hunter vagrant named Gene. He sets you up with a mission to kill 9 Torg, a local crime boss. He also asks you to retri♐eve his beloved knife, which he ಌgambled away.
So, off you go, into the slums, where you need to fight off a bunch of T💫org minions. Keep following the objective until you find a room with two aliens trying to sell Gene’s knife (see picture above). The easiest way to get rid of them is to pretend to be a buyer, and stab the aliens once they hand you the knife.
As it turns out, Gene’s knife is a blood-thirsty maniac who wishes to stab anything and everything, including his former owner. After defeating 9 Torg and dealing with the issue of whether you should 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:kill 5 Torg in High on Life, you need to head home, where Knifey will once again ask you to stab Gene♌ in a rather🅠… suggestive way.
When you get home, Gene will be lying on the couch, utterly defenceless.
