You also need to pass a passive Composure check. I think 5 or more Composure and then you can ask him about it. That character as a whole is annoying to deal with, needing a very very specific build to ask him about pie to get the secret achievement.

Then you get shot in the leg.

It did end up with some sexy results. And that's why I couldn't get the breastplate. One day I am going to cheat and see what the game is like with everything maxed out. Only as an experiment, i cannot imagine it would be a satisfying gaming experiance.

Someone just gave me $100. I checked my $$ and it is in the billions. Did the game glitch or am I super rich? I saved and had to log out for a bit. Kinda in shock. Did not expect that. Also didnt expect to hit to sub 40 rolls in a row.

Is this with the megarich light bending guy? because I think that's supposed to happen. You don't actually get that much money.

Oh, yeah maybe it's intentional? Though the popup says the correct amount, it's just the wallet that displays a ridiculous number. My first playthrough I failed the check to come up with a bad pitch, which accidentally resulted in me coming up with a good pitch and getting the money anyway, which I can only imagine is the best possible way for that scene to play out.

I bought and began playing this game because I'm a sucker for reading good stories. I made my own character with 4/3/2/3 stat divisions but put my signature skill as Volition, because even though I'm a cop, I want to be a decent one. Should I also go for Hardcore Mode, or is it really a bad idea for a first run? Edit: I succeeded the Visual Calculus check to learn I chucked my shoes through the window, then picked up both shoes... but I can only wear one at a time? Why isn't the game recognizing I found my other shoe? Olive Branch fucked around with this message at 06:58 on Feb 26, 2020 |

Yeah it's intentional-- bending the amount of money you have just like the light. I think your money appears higher the closer you are to him, but I can't easily check that. It's not related to the money he gives you.

Imhotep posted:You better buy that lamp post. I bought the $50 shoes. And some drugs. And meds to counter the drugs. I think I've bought every clothing item I have been able to find. I wish there were a sort feature. Sort by bonus and/or sort by item slot. Every skill check has devolved into going through my wardrobe.

When I picked up the other shoe it immediately merged with the existing shoe I was wearing into some kind of double shoe. Were you wearing the first one when you found the second?

Without Hardcore Mode it's pretty easy to get a "good" ending without much problems. So just think for yourself if you want smooth sailing or not. bobtheconqueror posted:For hardcore, I'd say go against it on a first run, but that's just me. You are indeed wearing one shoe from the start.

Day 1 is wrapping up for me. I've managed to become a feminist, communist hobocop who keeps apologizing for everything, and trying to make Kim like me. Also loving how my thoughts chat with each other. Volition keeps helping me out! Pity I still can't stomach approaching a dead body though.

The ending should be retconned to be the same as well. It feels more natural to have the debriefing outside of the balcony of the Whirling in Rags.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDXZ_hsHUVw https://store.steampowered.com/app/912570/BEAUTIFUL_DESOLATION/ People looking for something similar to DE should check out Beautiful Desolation, which just launched on Steam. It is basically Fallout 1/2 as an isometric adventure game with no direct combat and stunning graphics. I backed it on Kickstarter and don't understand why it hasn't been getting more attention.

It's from the same people behind Stasis which had some hamfisted and cliché story beats. So I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out to be lackluster. But I'll still check out some unedited gameplay on youtube,

Started my second playthrough of the game, this time on Hardcore (using a 1/2/6/3 build to contrast with my previous 6/1/2/3 build) and the first two hours have still been me laughing my rear end off at the writing, even though I've seen a lot of it before. One thing that I've noticed is that if you follow the Inland Empire's advice and don't look in the mirror then your portrait will stay like this. I wonder if I can beat the whole game without Harry knowing what he looks like.
