Non obvious: Clean up all tasks on the coast, max out Shivers and look at the sides of buildings. This one seems like a design shortcoming because it's gated behind Shivers and only shivers.

Under the Feld building. You have to pass a tough Shivers check to figure it out, but everything you can do on the coast gives a bonus, there's lots of clothes that boost Shivers, and there are thoughts as well.

Nope, all you need is a Suggestion check so that Kim allows it. We're talking about the sound frequency phasmid.

True. Remind me, where do you get the laborer jeans? I want to say... the apartment building?

Also, where do you find the sad tape?

You can find the pants in Cindy the Skull's room.

The sad tape is across the water lock, there's a broken fence to the south of the other side of the shore that's enclosing a yard with a broken shack. Behind the shack you can find the tape, possibly might need a baseline of Perception?

Did you read all the stuff with the phasmid? It literally says (or thinks I guess) that it is slowly killing/doing mind stuff to the old man which probably gave him a lot of that weird sex jealousy rage.

I was able to just talk to him and I imagine it’s because I talked to him in the tent and found my way through his dialogue tree to talk to him normally. Just keep trying options you haven’t done yet until he starts talking to you

I am curious about how the passive check works. Do you need at least a certain amount of affinity for the passive check to even appear? I got a bunch of skill points saved up so I dump them all into Shiver on day three and sudden I am seeing a lot of Shiver checks whereas before I can't remember seeing any passive shiver stuff at all. Same for stealing stuff. I guess unless you have some Savoir Faire the option to steal things doesn't even appear most of the time. I've only seen the option to steal the map and the harbor keycard so far.

my guess is that all rolls have a minimum for you to see that you rolled for it, and then the roll itself. theres no point in the game telling you that shivers wants to talk to you but failed to three times every conversation if you have it at 0

Ok, am I missing something about Wompty-Dompty Dom Centre, or does the game have a very specific definition of "Encyclopedia Passives" that don't include most Encyclopedia interjections?

passives are when you get a colorful CONTINUE -> button during a conversation with the color being in relation to what skill will be used. those are passive checks as opposed to the white or red active checks where you actively choose to try them. i have pretty high encyclopedia brains right now but i still dont get a whole lot of passive checks with it compared to other skills like say pain threshold, some skills are definitely more useful than others in that regard

Beat it. That owned.

Not sure how I feel about the ending, or more, I liked it, but the way the game suggested a larger scope then just, didn't go there, kinda bugged me. I like small scope games. But the suggestion of a larger scope then pulling it out doesn't sit as well with me I guess. Still enjoyed it and would recommend the hell out of it though.

Got accepted by my Precinct again though got grilled for never finding my gun. And I recruited Kim!
