Noice. I've only recently started playing on and off and I only just barely completed the first day. I'm not hooked yet, but a few of the things that were holding me back seem to be significantly addressed: controller support and hopefully-entirely-full voice acting mean I can lay in my bed and stare at the wall TV and not have to focus my eyeballs to read all the heady dialogue while my wireless mouse doesn't quite cut it. Plus all the double-clickin' was givin' me tendonitis. I can wait 'til March and give it another go. Also I've gotta let the Switch thread know if they haven't already heard.

But I do want to see how hideous the thought cabinet shirt is in reality If they're not selling gently caress THE WORLD and PISSF****T jackets they're missing a trick e: it appears they're doing hoodies of one of them, at least.

So... Cocaine Skull aside, what do people want out of the new and improved Disco? I'm still hankering for a secret door connecting the bar directly to Evrart's office. ... Or at least some poo poo to do in the harbor as you run through it.

The new area will be a room with twenty pillars mapping to the twenty skills, each bearing its own cocaine skull. You can take as many of these skulls as you want, and put them on any NPC in the game, transforming them into a unique skill/character amalgam that will follow you around, interject in the story, and assist you like Kim does. Each permutation of skill and character will have its own separate voice actor.

A fully voiced Kim is going to be great. His voice actor does a great job. Also already laughing at the idea of the guy who voiced Measurehead having to read out his entire dialogue tree lmao Also I would like the nightly debriefs with Kim every time you hit a major story beat. That first one was really cool & good.

Just have him get progressively more annoyed at you very blatantly ignoring the case each night you have a debrief where you didn't get anything done.

"We... helped some teenage delinquents today." He furrows his brow. "By evicting a woman from their burgeoning drug lab. I'm not sure how that will help us." 1. It seemed like a fun idea at the time. 2. No, no, it's a revolutionary action. Did you see how I converted Egg Head to my political philosophy? 3. *Everything* helps, Kim. Part of my entroponetic studies. It's all connected. 4. How else am I supposed to get my cop-fuel?!

I just picked this up since it was on sale instead of cyberpunk 2077 and holy poo poo how did I not know of it beforehand? I'm a complete wreck of a person who's failed every check and just tried to avoid paying my drinking bill by launching myself backwards, flipping the double bird (Why... both hands?!) and crashing into a wheelchaired lady. also my name is ridiculously long and pretentious, i've lost my badge, the corpse is still hanging up, my face is trapped in a terrible rictus grin of attempted seduction and I only have one shoe. I've been playing for ten minutes.

So I got myself out of that stuck skill check earlier by wondering around and talking to absolutely everyone and asking or talking about any followups since the last time I had talked to them. Actually pretty cool, love this game.

Yeah, if you bring up something that gives you a bonus to the check like 'Aha, I did the sidequest to figure out you guys are involved in SPOILER!' it tends to reopen the check which is nice.

I recently got it and this was my essential starting experience as well, I am now a a very self deprecating Communist HoboCop doing things for the Union to advance the case, who has inanimate objects talk to him frequently, up to and including the dead body in the tree. Which is now down and stuffed in a fridge for the time being so I can talk to it more, hopefully

So I picked it up on sale on Friday and basically shotgunned it through to the end yesterday. My summation is basically I believe I have just gotten stick-bugged. I wish I could have given Lena the photo, though and seen her reaction. I played it a little too safe, I think, I didn’t really do anything crazy and just played as a normal communism cop. I might deep dive into Inland Empire and Shivers and be full doomsaying apocalypse harbinger cop next time.

I finished it last night too. Absolutely incredible game. Problem is I was so enthralled by the last couple hours I kind of brute forced my way through and didn’t wrap up a lot of side quests. Main one being I left the two inch hole in the universe unexplored/explained. I’m assuming there was more to find because during the confrontation with your partner at the end I brought it up and rhetoric said “you didn’t find out anymore so there’s nothing else to say” Ending spoilers- the final confrontation with Lillianovich and being interrupted by the phasmid nearly had me in tears. Can’t explain why, guess I was high and the music and everything, just overwhelming man. Oh and then the loving deloris dei scene :chefskiss: Yeah, game of the year forever.

About two days in game time in, I legitimately broke down crying IRL a bit after back to back talking to the old anti-communist vet and his friend after inquiring about the meaning of the flowers from the hotel roof, followed by talking to the Dice maker about the curse and unlocking the lines about the nature of roleplaying games and why people play them Everyone hypes up the disaster cop dark comedy stuff and its hilarious but the moments of this game's writing also shine through in these really poignant, poetic ways and its loving beautiful. Gaming narrative is down hill from here.

I'm on day three and I spent a legitimate 20 minutes sitting around thinking about the consequences of which choice to make and having actual debate with myself about helping Evrat get his hands on the fishing village vs fudging it and screwing him, which seems like an easy choice until you're talking with the NPCs about how the village has no future, the kids there having nothing, how they might be driven out but this also might be the one shot at making something better, etc., etc. I'm going pretty hard in on empathy and inland empire with a side of conceptualization so I'm pretty whacky but I've also managed to unlock some really touching dialogue trees. Only time I've really savescummed was so I could 360 roundhouse kick Measurehead while screaming DISCO INFERNO despite having abysmal physical strength and no, I do not regret that. At all.
