Jesus, The Tribunal was some tense poo poo I love how this game can make just clicking through some dialogue, decisions, and a few die rolls exciting as hell.

So I kept on playing and now I'm on the island and Insulindian Phasmid just told me that insects will be rooting for me and I'm kinda tearing up. Game just keeps on surprising me.

Does gathering evidence about Evrarts drug plans and reporting it (as well as his takeover plans) to Joyce actually change anything?

Broken Cog posted:Has anyone actually tried to play "Honorably"? it has surprisingly little to do with authority or esprit-de-corps it's basically just the various opportunities you are given throughout the game to stake something on your honour, and whether you followed through Whether you promised to only ask Lena about ONE cryptid, and if you follow through, Whether you promise not to let Joyce's money influence you, because that wouldn't be honourable, Whether you follow through on Evrart's tasks or whether you subvert him etc. There's a steam guide about it if you want to be spoiled about the list Excelzior fucked around with this message at 22:15 on Oct 28, 2019 |

There's also just something meaningful about how sometimes you have long odds but make it anyway. Shooting that bastard Kortenar in the face wouldn't have been as tense if my Harry didn't have poo poo aim and hadn't had to pull through in a crisis.

haha my playthrough is going the exact opposite direction, 'cause my build specializes in motorics and I missed both shots. Which now turned my character's arc into giving his all trying to "save" at least one person in that drat district. Namely, Cuno.

Ive been deep in the Disco paint for the last week and a half and Christ this a good game. I tried booting up Outer World's just to give it a whirl and was so drat bored and bounced off it so hard it made me genuinely worry about all games being ruined for me.

What an absolute masterpiece of a game. I did savescum, but only for white checks, as some of the game's best moments are locked behind them. Everything about the setting only makes me want more.

One of the devblogs for the game states that the world will end in 28 years after the events of the game proper. Considering the Pale and how it's eating reality at an indeterminate rate is that something that's already established in the novel set in the same universe?

You, without cause, cut the lock off of an apartment door, enter with no good cause, look around, and steal things from some random person's apartment who isn't doing anything wrong as far as you know.

Apparently if you have a certain thought...hobocops can sleep on benches, but I can't confirm this. It's the only real bad "welp, no proceeding from here" point of friction in the game. Roll back to an earlier save and do some of the following: - Grovel at Joyce, who can loan you enough for a full day - Pass the rhetoric check at the lowered, empty storage container - Take Everart's money - Find the bag (IIRC it's towards the ball players, SW of the bookstore) and do some tare collecting - Pawn off postcards Once you hit day 3, you can live under a boat across the water lock. f#a# fucked around with this message at 23:54 on Oct 28, 2019 |

Ravenfood posted:I'm really wishing I'd put more into psyche at the beginning instead of going all intellect and twitchiness. But instead of getting restart-itis, I'm instead just looking forward to another playthroughs where I'm basically all in on psyche. get inland empire and espirit. they give you so much stuff -Zydeco- posted:Does shivers ever give you usable info in regular conversations? I'm 5 1 1 5 and though I got like 4 shivers from clothing and thoughts it mainly just gives me cinematic descriptions of the city. I want to do a shivers heavy play though next since I like how somber its descriptions are, but it seems to almost never come up in conversations. it rarely comes up in conversations, but it literally telegraphs the (end game)phasmid's existence on like, day 2, by talking about 'long spindly arms' opening up the buoy with klassje's identification in it. it predicts a lot but you just dont have the means to understand it until the second playthrough

Even spread will give you a better chance of managing whatever the game throws at you, but specializing will give you a more "unique" (and often funnier) playthrough. I'd honestly recommend specializing, as I found it more entertaining. Some of the whackier skill checks and comments will only show with sufficiently high skill investments, so you might miss out on some of it with an average build.
