My biggest regret on my first playthrough is that I never managed to fully upgrade the fat anodic beats for Egghead.

Hub Cat posted:So I tried not progressing the plot at all and there isn't a game ending time limit or at least not one within a reasonable playtime if anybody was worried about that Good to know. I'll probably take my time on a second playthrough. BBJoey posted:Right proper ending spoilers: I got that too. Not sure if it's dependant on any ideology. I chose not to ponder any of them. It did say "Revachol" instead of "the people", if that's a direct quote. The Saddest Rhino posted:Also I wonder when the alt right gamer brigade is going to find out this game allows you to embrace fascism but the motivation is directed By gut flora and the poo poo in your little intestines It's also funny that the (ending spoiler) killer is basically a racist, women-hater hypocrite. Gamergate-esk. Oxxidation posted:and a question of my own - i read a few posts about a quest involving a drug-running operation. who gives that out? i'm on the verge of day 5 and while i've made good progress on the murder case and the church quest i haven't heard anything about the drugs There is another way to find out about it not involving Joyce at all. So if you don't want to cooperate with her, you don't have to. Mulva posted:You're a big ol' Sad Boy, doing it Sad Style, rocking out to Sad FM. The only way you end up as machismo huffing jerk is if you decide to go that way. In which case, well, that's on you.

Man, I drank some booze to boost my Physique so I could crack open the ice cream freezer and get the programmer's off-site copy and it felt like such a profound personal failure  Next time I'm going to play a total drunk and addict, but this time Detective Dude was trying his best.

grate deceiver posted:My biggest regret on my first playthrough is that I never managed to fully upgrade the fat anodic beats for Egghead. There are two things I'm just going to flat out spoil to literally everyone. You should absolutely make sure the music boys drop their drug plans and start a dance club and you should make sure that the lady researching the church stays with them. -and- Dance. This is where the beat plunged. It will resurface soon. Brace for glory. e: I can not imagine playing this game through as an rear end in a top hat, it seems so profoundly wrong.

For some reason, talking to the old woman lorry driver near 2 o'clock stopped time from advancing, so now I apparently have forever to explore the city? Or maybe time is still counting in the background, and I'm just not seeing it? Knocked Measurehead out, went into the office - the union head isn't there, you can't actually leave without talking to him, and time doesn't advance. Good thing I had another save.

You can leave, there's a card near the coffee machine or whatever that will let you out the gate, had the same issue earlier when I spent most of the day mucking about.

I had time frozen as well at one point, which I suspect was due to the gaming setting up a certain event that happened shortly after.

my little adventure that started in the bookstore's backroom was a loving trip, i tell you what (full-game spoilers) - there is a curse - there's not a curse - there might be a curse, but for now let's say "no" - there is a germinating seed of nothingness within the district's very architecture that is devouring the concept of good fortune from all within its sphere of influence like water swirling down an open plughole - curse??????

How exactly do I learn that I can pick up "tare"? I got the frittte bag, I've inspected the tare machine, talked to the sales girl... but haven't been able to pick up any bottles anywhere, despite being a hobocop. Edit - Ah, you have to equip the bag first?

You have to equip the bag and most bottles should become interacteable, then you just pick them up like any other inventory object.

That reminds me. When I found a corpse surrounded by bottles, and had the bag in my hand, Kim superficially pointed it out, that NO, we were not going to collect these bottles.

Now that time has frozen, I'm just re-exploring every dialog option to exhaustion. Finally got the insufferable centrist and fascist options. *Fascism* sounds so bad though. What if we called it something else? Like, uhm, *traditionalism*? ... Also, where do I get a map? I thought digging the ledger out of the trash mentioned the map, but I still can't actually use it.

Started the game with the sensitive archetype, but he's a bit too impulsive, he could use some more booksmarts, what's a more balanced build?

Looks like every night stops at 2am, and won't go to the next day until you sleep. Was an excellent time to read up on what kind of cockatoo I was.

Very end of the game spoilers What happens if you succeed on the Inland roll with the creature? I had a 97% chance that failed and my save wasn't recent enough for me to want to reload

Finished my first playthrough holy poo poo this game. Encounter on small island near end of the game question: there is a composure check with the communist soldier to notice he's surprisingly coherent considering he's been more or less alone for 40 years, but I didn't get a followup to that observation. Is there more to the mystery/him?

(And also apparently it stop advancing for good each night at 2 AM.)

Can you actually make enough money to buy the streetlight? I don't see any reason to do it, just curious.

Broken Cog posted:Can you actually make enough money to buy the streetlight? I don't see any reason to do it, just curious. If you sell every item you find, beg for money at every opportunity and get all the bottles with the hobo bonus, I think it could be doable. Also last act reminder: go to sleep in the tower before leaving, otherwise you'll miss the final boss battle.

Yeah, the clock only moves from 0730 to 0200. Unless you're Kim, in which case you wake up before 0700. Probably goes through his notes too.

Whatever you do, don't run out of money to pay rent on the second day. If you don't have enough to cover it by 2 AM, you're stuck and will need to load an older save.

They do tell you it's "game-over", but yeah, pretty weird and inelegant. I haven't done it, but I assumed you could sleep in the dumpster.

I like how you can mention you're wearing the boots to Kim after he explicitly told you not to take them and he just tells you he was trying really hard not to mention it.
