Also, I think the name of the person who operates the surveillance terminal outside of Morgan's "room" changes from male/female to match your character choice in order to make things less creepy I guess.

I just use them when I get lost or frustrated. Also gently caress the treasure map. Accidentally found the location of one of the pieces.

Just finished it last night -- I blew up the station, then saved/reloaded to get some other endings (nullwave transmitter, blow up the station but escape using EP101, escape without blowing up the station). Now I want to do another run, possibly human-neuromods-only (perhaps even human neuromods only + killing everyone, since I really want to see how that plays out at the end, but I also want to see what happens if I save Dahl and give everyone a way off the station since I totally didn't do that this time. I did find it kind of odd that escaping the station, packed full of typhon neuromods, while everyone else dies because I killed Dahl doesn't seem to change anything compared to blowing up the station and everyone in it including myself. I'm also not sure if I want to do human mods only on Hard or Nightmare, since I found Normal a bit too easy, or if I want to dial it down to Easy and just blast through it since I won't have access to the psi powers, which I leaned on really heavily. They're just so drat fun! And Between all-human/all-typhon and kill-everyone/save-dahl paths to explore, I feel like there's at least two replays left in this, but between the 3yo eating most of my gaming time and my girlfriend waving NieR: Automata at me every time I stand still I don't know if I'll have the time! Especially since I still need to play Dishonored 2. DLC Inc posted:it's interesting to see how people react to the ending when or if they never bothered to do the December "ending" as I feel that was what ultimately set off an alarm in my head about what was going on. I didn't get that ending until the same session I got all the other endings in, but I predicted relatively early -- I think after reading the notes about mirror neurons in Psychotronics and coming into contact with coral in GUTS -- that we were actually a T. Anthrophantasmus implanted with Morgan's memories, after some disaster befell her that her "return to Earth" was a cover for; my wife, watching over my shoulder, independently predicted that we were in a simulation a little while later. It was pretty cool to find out at the end that we were both right. Nomadic Scholar posted:Just got to psychotronics, but took a detour to the shuttle bay, and holy loving poo poo aaaaaaaaaaaa. I jump at most of the mimics breaking their cover and I hate myself for it. I also have yet to hack anything. After trying it once, I realized it was dumb and figured I could find my way into most things without it. So far so good. Wait, how do you get to the shuttle bay that early? I couldn't get in there until the very end of the game. ToxicFrog fucked around with this message at 16:25 on Oct 14, 2017 |

I think it is just locked with the general access card on the door in the main lobby. So you can go there after the hardware labs stuff. Not that there's a big reason to do so. The techno path in there is pretty rough that early in the game.

On my first playthrough I ended up facing down the Technopath in Neuromod Fabrication really early on thanks to foamstairing my way up to the second floor (and getting the fabrication pattern there way earlier than expected, I think). So another technopath wouldn't have been that big a deal, I think. Another thing I just realized about the ending: despite saving Alex, he never sent me any other messages after the "thanks for saving me" message I got, not even when I activated the self destruct. Seems odd, he's so insistent that blowing up the station is the wrong thing to do up until that point. Maybe January assassinated him off screen before meeting me at the bridge? E:my 3yo saw me noodling around in the lobby and now he's standing in Morgan's office firing nerf darts out the window and periodically getting me to fabricate more

Did you fabricate and place the improved nullwave bomb into the coral core? If you didn't I don't think Alex even bothers to show up on the bridge.

Yeah, I did both the nullwave bomb ending and the self destruct ending, and in both cases January shows up on the bridge, and Alex not only doesn't show up, he doesn't even send me a v-mail about how happy/disappointed he is that I'm saving/destroying the station, which seems weird.

That sounds like something glitched out then. Alex definitely should be standing next to January at the end if you pulled his unconscious body into his safe room and locked the door when you leave it Vakal fucked around with this message at 17:07 on Oct 14, 2017 |

GlyphGryph posted:Stun gun is definitely the best weapon in the game, no doubt about that at all. Wait, what? I recycled all the stunguns I found because I found it completely unusable -- it takes so long to charge up a shot when you pull the trigger that by the time it actually fires, whatever you wanted to zap with it is right up in your face loving you up and you would have been better off using a shotgun. Is this one of those weapons that's totally useless out of the box but becomes really good when upgraded? Vakal posted:That sounds like something glitched out then. Disappointing. I'll just tell myself that January killed him off screen when I wasn't paying attention and hope it works properly next time.

Fully upgraded the stun gun will kill all operators in 1-2 shot and will take out a techno path in like 3. With recharged maxed out the shots charge up in like a second.

Also, while we are on the subject of the endings. I feel like there was going to be another ending path that was cut sometime during development. Most people probably noticed that the January operator seems a bit "sinister" at times and the game implies that January is the one that destroys the December operator. Then in one of that late game transcribes, a pre-memory loss Morgan explains his/her plans and introduces an operator named October as being the failsafe that will help the player in case something goes wrong. As far as I know, October is never mentioned anywhere else in game. So I'm wondering if the original plan was for January to be revealed as a planted agent in order to ensure the station got blown up for some reason.

The stun gun is really good, you need to try it. It trivializes mimics, regular typhon, humans, and technopaths. I even use it against telepaths a lot because I often don't have a spare nullwave grenade. Every weapon in the game is good, I think the only one I'd be pretty comfortable doing without is the pistol.

You need to treat it like a Mega Buster or any other weapon that can be charged up. You want to release the trigger when you want the lightning to come out.

You can also just charge it up from stealth for most things. Stun gun is definitely my mvp for weapons.

I beat the game. Im glad its over because it was consuming my life, meaning, it was good. I see a lot of people like the shotgun but I feel like I got way more mileage out of the 9mm. Probably because it shoots so fast and hits stuff from far away. it was like my weird sniper rifle. Once you get combat focus and all the damage multipliers though the shotgun will murder everything. the endgame is really hilarious if you're like me and made sure to craft as many neuromods as possible. started to feel like i was playing prototype. The ending felt pretty weird and tacked on. i don't really care for the twist but i AM interested in what happened in reality...like morgan's failure, what happened to them, the way the outbreak on earth happened. i hope that stuff is the focus of some dlc. i feel like the weighing of your decisions in the game doesn't really work in some respects because games tend to disproportionately reward morally good decisions, a lot of the time nonsensically. so a player is probably going to normally do the good thing anyway, (i never killed a video game human after dishonored because the game wouldnt let me play the final level) but also, a lot of the choices are "be a decent person" or "be a total psychopath for no reason." which, makes sense in the narrative since you're actually part of an alien species with zero empathy, but I think it would have been interesting if the game actually gave you far greater incentive to take the more self-interested paths, resulting in more people seeing an ending where alex just sees, a tiny glimmer of light in this weird alien homonculus, instead of, "oh we crafted a saint." I like the sidequest where you had to decide whether or not to blow up the shuttle.

It didn't really feel tacked-on to me at all; there are plenty of hints throughout the game as to what's actually going on and a lot of other stuff that makes sense as pointing to that in retrospect (like all those books about "the evacuation" which I now suspect are about the Typhon invasion of Earth). That said, I agree that I'd love to see some DLC focusing on what really happened outside the simulation. I've also been wondering just how much of what you experience is simulated and how much is remembered events as they actually happened to Morgan. Like, for all I know Morgan died in the arboretum or something, and everything you play up until that point is "what really happened" and everything after that is the simulation. quote:(i never killed a video game human after dishonored because the game wouldnt let me play the final level) Chaos in Dishonoured doesn't affect whether you can play the final mission or not, although it does affect things like number of enemies and what ending you get; if it wouldn't let you play the final level that was a bug, not a result of high chaos.

^^^ ah, I didn't mean that it wasn't foreshadowed or anything. just that it didn't feel very fleshed out? Like, it's pretty short and just consists of the robots summarizing what you did in a very 'video gamey' way. TALLYING GOODNESS POINTS.... I feel like most of what you experienced was not what actually happened at all. there's no really need to recreate the actual outbreak for the purpose of their experiment. they just want to force a bunch of empathy tests. i dont know what i experienced with dishonored because you're right lmfao

GulagDolls posted:^^^ Unless some DLC comes out that says for sure, all we know from the ending is: That the Typhon made it to Earth somehow. That TranStar is a real company. And that Alex exists and had a sibling named Morgan that is presumably dead. But, Alex does repeat the same line though in the ending - "we were so focused on putting what you could do into us..." which suggests that TranStar had really done experiments with Typhon neuromods. So considering that it probably means the Typhon probably did break out of a containment lab somewhere. It's just uncertain if Talos I existed or not.

Hannibal Rex posted:I wonder if it's possible to put Alex into his escape capsule rather than the safe room. Anyone tried that? I'm betting that just leads to the "This isn't the one" ending because I don't think there's a way to have the nullwave or self-destruct ready at that point so you're still technically escaping the station before the actual endings. And its probably not possible to move quickly enough to do everything you need to do for one option, go to the bridge, set it off, and get back to Alex. Assuming he doesn't just die as soon as you load another zone.
