Had the game crash when I tried to take a screenshot with the gog tool and that was a real bummer. I lost a bunch of progress. Remember to save often.

Can someone give me a yes or no to this question? Spoilers for the first day/main quest: I hosed up shooting the corpse down and now have to use Measurehead as a way to get it down. Is there another way to get the corpse down from the tree? Day is about to end soon.

Ha - started playing with my wife yesterday and she was alternately repulsed and extremely intrigued by the gritty, gunky writing, but she loves mysteries so we both got really into it. We got as far as going to the bartender, and when he asked for what we owed him she successfully absconded - except when she did it played the success sound and her character SPRINTED to the front door, which we thought was funny until we realized the game had locked up and we hadn't saved. Oh well!

Broken Cog posted:Question for those that have finished the game: (massive spoilers obviously): Ending spoilers: I got at dream sequence of my ex-wi...ex-girlfriend in the shape of Doris Dei. The whole ending fell a bit flat on me. First, you have a killer unrelated to anything going on (unless I missed something and the island hobo is not the murderer), and he only did it because he was deluded by the reed monster? I was expecting it to be some kind of love/obsession with the lady but it wasn't even that. And the evaluation at the end by your squad was pretty anticlimactic. Maybe there should have been some Fallout-style slides at the end to say what happend to various folks. Is anything in the game actually timed, or can you waste weeks of time just wandering around being the Worst Cop Ever?

Book store back room spoilers: How do you open the ice cream machine? I have a -20 to the check because the prybar isn't strong enough. Also related to the t-500 I know where to get the chest and the boots but where are the gloves? There are only three pieces right?

The gloves are in a sandcastle near the fishing village, you might have to talk to the girl inside first. Some people will point you towards her. The helmet is "missing".

Okay, how exactly do I get these boots? Shoot the body down, go to pull them off and Kim says we should leave it to processing and I automatically back off while Interfacing complains about this turning into a mega puzzle. Should I have gone for it while the dude was hanging?

Get the corpse down and let it stew on the ground for a night, then sneak out after you and Kim split up and grab them.

cheesetriangles posted:Quick clarification. Do I need to do the autopsy first or just get the body down? Probably doesn't matter. I did it afterwards, but just be careful not to send Kim off with the corpse until you've snagged the boots. (The game warns you explicitly that the corpse will be inaccessible once you do) Edit: Anyone know how I can become a libertarian? I'm doing a max Int/Motorics as basically a sociopathic thief and thought it'd be fitting. Guess I might have to side with the scabs at the gate or something?

Okay, so it's only been two days, but I can't stay away from this thread 'cause I've played two in-game days and it's everything I wanted it to be, so I'm bursting to talk about it. Trip report: Bumbled through most of Day 1 as a useless loser, only to finish it off by suddenly becoming a hypercompetent detective who shot the corpse off a tree, found the real cause of death and fished out the bullet, which gave me instant respect from both Kim and Cuno. Also, Inland Empire is something else: Spent most of Day 2 investigating side mysteries and bonding with Kim. After he turned in for the night, couldn't sleep so got high on drugs and did another run around town, during which I had an existential convo with a diemaker, and then solved my playthrough's worth of money problems by talking my way into a shipping container. Only just started Day 3, but meeting my fellow cops in disguise is a promising start already. Playing with a build of 5 Motorics, 3/3 for mental stats and 1 Physique, with everything Motorics plus Inland Empire, Empathy and Shivers as highest skills. Still only 1 point in Endurance, have yet to die. Composure, Empathy, Reaction Speed and a dash of Rhetoric cracks most people like nobody's business. Even managed to have the entire conversation with Evrart standing up, because gently caress the chair. The best part about it is, due to how interplay between your skills is presented, it very much feels like everything that's happened and what you managed to achieve so far was the right and the only way to solve things, and the best possible build, despite so many different builds available. Can't wait to eventually replay with different stats and thoughts, and see how the tone of the story and character changes, and if it feels just as right. And in addition to solid writing in general, characters actually have their own voices and feel like distinct, complex people too. Even the ones that are hardest to like at first glance have more going on with them than it seems. Cuno, when you get him to respect you more and pass his empathy check, is a heartbreaking character, and I haven't fully discovered what's going on with Cunoesse yet, but the info I've got so far is terrifying enough. Garte has more to him than just being a pompous prick if you find out more about what's going on with him and Sylvie, and about how much of a prick your own character had been. And Kim is just a bro, especially when he gives in to your crazier schemes, like tricking the bookstore owner into thinking you're paranormal investigators. Or, Been forever since I played something that's so hard to put down. Game has a serious appeal of "just one more mystery" for me.
