You keep saying things like "down with the bourgeoisie," "eat the rich," "sodomize the land-owners," "impale all people who have more than 25 bucks in their pocket," "literally murder all human beings regardless of their political beliefs," -- that kind of stuff. Don't deny it. You're about to rip it off and reveal the monstrous seven-eyed lamb of global communism that will devour and masticate mankind. What's it about? Failure. It's about failure. Yes! Abject failure. Total, irreversible defeat on all fronts! Absolutely vanquished, beaten, curb-stomped, and pissed on -- until *you* came along! *You* will reverse the fortune of the workers of the world. You alone, against every living thing, against every human alive: eight hundred trillion dollars in the hands of an *impossibly* well organized ruling class; towering city blocks of bank-men who have the ears of prime ministers; million-headed armies of nations and the love of your own mother! You -- against the atom, the charm and the spin. Where the whole world failed -- matter failed to bend human will; human will failed to get out of bed and tie its laces -- you alone, single-handedly, will rebuild the dreams of the working class. You are The Last Communist. Now get to work, comrade.

The historic opportunity for a revolution has passed. It will not come back any more. However hard I try, whatever I do.

I don't get why people like this game. I tried to play it and it was boring as poo poo. I just walked around this slum talking to people and then this trucker guy killed me because I said something about my ex wife and it made my detective sad and he just kinda died. The humor was really monkey cheese too but everywhere people love this game. I feel like I should give it a second chance but I don't get what I was doing wrong

On one hand the op is extremely bad, but on the other hand maybe they’re 14 and their parents bought this account for them before they were even born, assuming it would increase in value, so I don’t want to bully them.

Many actions can cause to lose mental or physical health, such as being really depresse dor failing to get your tie from the ceiling fan. As for humor, I found it to be kind of the opposite of monkey cheese.

What's a good build for someone starting out because I picked the sensitive detective and he couldn't do anything cool, like some of his skills were capped at 0. Is the tough detective or the smart detective easier to play as?

Is the tough detective or the smart detective easier to play as? Probably the first thing to come to terms with is that failure in this game doesn't mean you should reload. Failure can still produce good results. Any kind of detective ends up being good at something during the game. My first build was something like 2/1/5/4, a strong, perceptive cop who is a complete idiot when it comes to human empathy, second is 4/5/1/2, a human empath who is a pansy & a clutz.

Is the tough detective or the smart detective easier to play as? There are equally difficult, regardless of your build there will always be a way to progress the story Failure is a theme in the game. Sometimes passing a skill check leads you to the same outcome as failing the aforementioned check. Failing a check often leads to a more entertaining outcome (try to sneak away from the bartender for a demonstration) Heck, sometimes passing a skill check can lead to a bad outcome where failure is preferable. Usually the game relies on you the player's logical judgement. Your not god, you can't shoot a kid in the face and expect to get away with it. You can't see everything on the first playthrough, it's designed for replayability

How much does the game let you fail before your character is bricked and you have to start over? Because during my first play through my dude got really hosed up like he had too many thoughts equipped and I couldn't unequip them and all the side quests were hosed cause I kept failing skill checks over and over. Is it one of those games where you are expected to get the bad ending and then come back on a second play through once you know what to do?

You can unequip thoughts by spending skill points after leveling up, you can unlock checks you failed by putting points into the relevant skills or pursuing further dialogue options. There are a couple of hard checks that are annoying (Shivers is the one that comes to mind), but you can get more and more bonuses to that check as you do things.

Is it one of those games where you are expected to get the bad ending and then come back on a second play through once you know what to do? At first you probably want to drop most of your points into skills. Make yourself better at things you are good at, or bolster your glaring weaknesses. Like if you have 1 morale or 1 health then boost than poo poo to 2 ASAP. Some of the thoughts are super powerful, some are useless, others are just kinda fun, a few are actively detrimental.
