Even if you read it in your room completely alone at 2am while Kim is taking the body back, he still somehow knows. Which is slightly creepy. Oh, someone reported an officer down, huh Kim? You’re definitely not sneaking into my room to check on me at night? Hmmmm

There are some spots where Kim will chime in even if he's not there. I got it when I tried to read his notes in his room when he was away.

Finished this a couple of days ago after a six month mourning period: when I woke up after the tribunal, Kim was dead and Cuno was my new partner. I was a very sorry cop, and couldn't continue. Loaded the save before the teleportation and did more stuff like opining the freezer finishing the nightclub. Still had a bit of a disaster with the tribunal but I dodged a bullet and saved Kim. We checked the window in the apartment and went to the island. Is it possible to pass the window check and visit the island before the tribunal?

So it's impossible to have the right suspect at the tribunal. What does a "good" tribunal outcome look like? (I think I got 5 killed.)

paradoxGentleman posted:I have vague memories of one of the skills saying that he also has huge Authority. Guess he went for a Psyche-heavy build? Yeah, if you try to get him to tell a secret about himself, and press him on it, he raises an eyebrow at you and your body just completely locks up. Your volition tells you that his authority is off the charts. It's one of the few "always fail" checks in the game.

I was watching one of the let's plays posted above and realizes the game probably gives you two savoir-faire reducing items in your starting clothes, just to make it more likely you fail the 'slip away unnoticed' check at the start if attempted.

Interestingly no-one seems to comment if you don't wear pants and shoes, but if you don't wear (or haven't picked up) your jacket, Kim's line when you ask how he knows you are a cop changes a little.

a fatguy baldspot posted:Just want to fact check this post from a bit back, the creator said specifically that slavery never existed in Elysium, lmao however it makes a sense given the different material conditions imagined by for example having a single world religion from the dawn of time that acted as a supranational entity in terms of law and social organization - which would make serfdom far more likely than slavery, imo - and transisolary travel being way more loving complicated than transoceanic, which meant that Insulinde, being the only isola without people had to be permanently settled, something that you could not do slaves besides, I think it is an unfair take re: "political peril" because of stuff like the detailed commentary on the matter of imperialist oppression and colonialism, which goes up to and including a thoroughly descriptive atrocity involving mutilation, rape and cannibalism by first world mercenaries against villagers (there are like five skills which pop up at the time to give content warning)

Played a little bit of a new game with high psy/phys (opposite of what I had the first go round), and boy, uh, he sure is obsessed with muscly men nowPhilman posted:if you go there wearing no pants and kim asks about your badge you get "check your undies" instead of "check your pockets" And then the game basically sighs and tells you that if even Kim isn’t going to comment on you being naked, nobody’s going to, so please just put your clothes on

I finished my very first playthrough as an impossibly contradictory person and a successful(?) detective who could leave no stone unturned at least 3 times over. Wow. What a ride. Enjoyable enough that I might do a second playthrough instead of just reading a the alternate options/lore online. Does hardcore mode have any value other than as a high score challenge mode thing for min-maxer build-n-execute sort of people? Replacing the main menu music with the proto-hardcore beat got a good chuckle out of me.

'We were supposed to come up with this ourselves!' the man was reported to have screamed at the innocence..." I can't think of any further discussion of gods. but I suppose the existence of the genius loci of la revacholiere implies the existence of genius loci of other things, possibly including things like "humanity" and "Elysium itself." finish translating the loving novel zaum I swear to god I'll pay you heck of cash for it.

It's great. Comrade(?) Egghead shouts out with a 'Yeahh Hardcore!' and the windows of the church pulse with laser light. I wonder if that's universal or if I unlocked that by being an awesome hard-cop who helped them set up the best drat night club on top of the start of the end of the world: Disco Elysium, where Love is the only drug allowed and it's all you need. I hope it ends up right next to the youth center to spread our beats to the next generation Roumba fucked around with this message at 21:26 on Aug 17, 2020 |

Also, Elysium had serfdom millennia ago, but the Innosence book talks about how Franconegro ended it (but implemented hereditary monarchy to replace it lol).

Yeah DE is very much a European game in the same way that Fallout games (at least 1,2, and New Vegas) are quintessentially from the U.S.
